At Healing Change, we help people with Anxiety & Panic, Depression Anger Childhood Trauma PTSD, Addictions and Couples Conflict .
Dr. McGrath believes we all have the ability to solve our problems. We may feel ‘stuck’ from past traumas or stresses or overwhelmed by present events. When we experience stress or trauma, it can be difficult to access these solutions because we are weighed down by our emotions. At Healing Change Centre, Dr. McGrath’s role is to facilitate finding solutions during a crisis so that people know ‘they can get through tomorrow’. He also aids his clients in becoming more aware of their emotions and expressing them in a different way, so they have the ability to stay connected.

But that doesn’t mean sex, loss, and anger are not part of the mix.
Hi, I’m Gio (they/them), and if you're reading this I'm assuming you're looking for a therapist. I hate to break it to you, but the "perfect" therapist doesn't exist. However, we could build a therapeutic relationship together that is the perfect solution to the reasons you're looking for a therapist. You might be feeling anxious, depressed, or scared - but you're also feeling ready for change. Try a free consultation with me and let's see if we'd make a good team to tackle some of those worries together.

SMART therapy is ideal for children and teens who find it difficult to sit, regulate and focus, such as: ADHD & Oppositional Defiance Disorder, emotional and behavioral dysregulation, inability to accept help, low frustration tolerance & explosive anger.
In SMART therapy clients are directed to REGULATE through MOVEMENT and as a result START TALKING so problem solving and healing can happen. Therapy is provided in a specially designed room with specialized equipment, such as arial swings, spinning, weighted blankets, balance beams, fitness balls, person sized pea-pod, body socks, dolphin pillows, and safe cubby holes, and tents. Movement, rest and safety is used to support natural ways of regulating bodies and emotions, facilitate parent-child attachment-building and allow for embodied processing of hurtful and traumatic experiences. It is not at all like traditional play therapy.

My experiences include, but are not limited to supporting clients with anxiety, anger, grief/loss, depression, PTSD, substance abuse, addiction, learning challenges, including supporting LGBTQ2S+ individuals with their unique set of needs.
New to therapy? Nothing to worry about! Sometimes it's hard making sense and to talk about our feelings, experiences and patterns of behaviours. Empathetic by nature, I'm a progressive therapist, who uses a strength-based approach to help you and/or your partner achieve emotional balance and optimal mental health. My job is to ultimately help you feel comfort, acceptance, and to listen without judgement. Some days we'll laugh and realize those light 'ah ha!' moments while other days we will work hard to uncover those deeply personal truths. If you'd like to know more visit me at: alphacounselling.ca

I work primarily with adults who are interested in gaining insight into their behaviours and making changes in their life. Learning to understand our thoughts and feelings gives us the opportunity to do something different than what we have always done. These changes might include working on self-esteem issues, relationship issues, depression/anxiety, addiction, life transitions, or parenting struggles.

It can also be exhausting trying to balance and maintain all our responsibilities.

Sometimes our journey in life takes an unexpected turn, it can leave us feeling confused, angry, hopeless, and alone. It can also be exhausting trying to balance and maintain all our responsibilities. You might be a child/teen trying to navigate social media, friends, school, and life transitions; or your an adult unsure of what's next for you, struggling in a relationship, a profession, paying bills, or raising a family. I provide a non-judgmental, collaborative, and integrative approach to therapy. I incorporate evidence-based principles from a variety of therapy models to individualize treatment and prioritize your goals.

Mental, emotional, social and behavioural disorders in childhood/adolescence can cause long-term problems that may affect the health and well-being of young people and families. Treating mental health problems as soon as possible can help children reduce problems at home, in school and in forming friendships. "When it comes to your kids, you are aiming a lot higher than mere survival…your ultimate goal is to raise kids in a way that lets them thrive. You want them to enjoy meaningful relationships, be caring and compassionate, do well in school, work hard and be responsible, and to feel good about who they are." - Daniel J.

How long does therapy take for anger management?
Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.
How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?
Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.
Is there medication for anger management?
Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.
What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either themselves or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
