01 · Individual Psychotherapy
One-on-one therapy,
tailored to you.
Sixty minutes a week (or every other week) with a Registered Psychotherapist, in the Beaches office or through secure video. A quiet hour to look at what's been weighing on you, with someone whose only job in that room is to help you make sense of it.
What to Expect
Therapy that meets you where you are.
There's no script. We start where you are, not where a manual says a client at session two should be. The goal is to build a relationship where you can bring the parts of yourself that don't usually get spoken out loud, and have them met with attention, not judgment.
The work itself
Our approach is integrative, which is a fancy way of saying we follow the person rather than the method. Most sessions draw on a relational, psychodynamic foundation. What happens between you and your therapist in the room matters, and patterns from the past tend to show up in the present. When it's useful, sessions pull in concrete tools from ACT, IFS, mindfulness, and meaning-centered work. For clients who want it, the existential and spiritual dimensions are welcome too.
A discerning thread
If there's a signature to how the practice works, it comes from the Ignatian tradition the founder brought into it: careful, patient attention to the interior movements (what draws you toward life, what pulls you toward contraction) and using that attention as a map. You don't have to share the theology to benefit from the method. It's how our therapists listen.
Who this is for
Adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship difficulty, addiction patterns, burnout, and the bigger questions of meaning and purpose. If you're not sure whether what you're carrying is a fit for therapy, the short answer is usually yes. The free consultation is the best way to find out.
Rhythm and length
Most clients start weekly for the first few months. That cadence tends to build momentum and help the work go deeper. From there, many move to biweekly or monthly check-ins. Some people come for a focused piece of work that wraps up in a handful of sessions; others stay longer. We decide together when the work feels complete.

How the first session works
The first meeting is a conversation, not an intake form. You share what's bringing you in, your therapist asks questions to understand the shape of things, and by the end you'll both have a sense of whether this feels like the right fit. There's no pressure to commit to ongoing work from that one meeting.
Fees and insurance
Fees vary by service and session length. Please reach out for current rates. Most extended health benefit plans in Ontario cover psychotherapy provided by a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO). A receipt is issued for every session; whether your plan reimburses depends on your specific coverage, so a quick check with your provider is worthwhile.
