Are you struggling with low mood, anxiety, or relationship issues? Do you feel stuck, or trapped in patterns that leave you unhappy? I can help you find a way forward and gradually let go of limiting thought and behaviour patterns. As a gay man, I understand how identity and discrimination can also impact mental health. I'm a registered social worker and psychotherapist who has supported clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, sexuality and gender concerns, and other life issues. Trained in CBT, DBT, EFT, and mindfulness, I use an integrative approach with clients based on what you bring to session.

How you connect with your therapist will be the most important factor in determining how you make progress in therapy. This bond and comfort to share personal information should start to build from the first meeting. With that in mind, I will provide a supportive, non-judgemental environment from which you can explore what is important to you. I have extensive training and experience (12 years counsellor; 9 years social worker, in hospitals, community settings and private practice) providing effective treatment for adult individuals, couples, groups, and supervising other therapists.

It feels as if your negative experience is stuck to your brain like a barnacle on a ship. You try not to think about it but every day there’s something that reminds you of what happened. You find yourself ruminating in the shower and becoming irritated or overwhelmed by minor inconveniences. You feel anxious, sad, angry, and distressed. Maybe you’re even experiencing physical symptoms. You wish you could simply “let it go” but you just… can’t. The ghosts of your past have robbed you of your present and you’re terrified that they’ll steal your future as well.

Hello and Welcome! My name is Salwa and I am a Registered Social Worker at Relationship Counselling Toronto. I am passionate about helping couples manage conflict, enhance their communication skills and deepen their friendship and intimacy with each other in order to feel more emotionally close and connected. I believe that humans are wired to connect with others, and it can be incredibly painful to a couple when they find themselves feeling ‘stuck’ in constant fights, or feeling emotionally distant.

Many of my clients feel like they don't fit in. Some have social anxiety or feel awkward in social settings. Almost all are so hard on themselves. They're swimming in feelings of worthlessness and shame. Who are you really? What is getting in the way of you living your best life? I am a mom to two kids and I understand the ways we get triggered - as parents and as children.
