In Person Therapists in Yorkville, Toronto, ON

I’m committed to the art of listening to clients – individuals & couples. Together we can work on creating meaningful change and healing, whether for your relationship challenges, sex/intimacy matters, men's issues, anxiety, anger, or depression. I used to work in family law in Ontario, and I’m a husband and father, so I’ve experienced family dynamics, conflict, and transformation. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), completing a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology, I'm qualified to practice under supervision.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” - Carl Rogers I believe that the first step in moving towards the life you want is to accept yourself and your position as they are. This is not a request to settle, but rather, an invitation to look at the cards you hold. Only after accepting how things are can your next steps be determined. I can provide the space for you to express how difficult things are, while the healing relationship we build together will serve as the vehicle driving change. Seeking support is not easy, and you are stronger than you think by simply taking this first step.

People require help with various issues at some point of their lifes. It could be difficulty making a decision, relationship problems, dissatisfaction with career, financial warries, losses, illness, or injury. Regardless of the magnitude of the problem it is often beneficial to discuss your problem with a professional who may help you to see the issue from a different perspective and to arrive to a satisfactory solution. Some problems require numerous sessions, but sometimes even one or few sessions result in improved mood and self-confidence and help to gain insights that could lead to desired changes.

I believe that each of us wants to be his or her "best self" every day, but at times in our lives that may be difficult to do. Sometimes this is because of troubling interpersonal relationships or patterns that we ourselves participate in but are unaware of. Developing awareness of these patterns, with a view to personal change and growth, is key to enhancing day-to-day life. We will work together to think about how to reframe your experiences and help you to achieve the necessary shifts toward the life that you wish to live.

Hello! My name is Mafalda, and I am an Art therapist who has experience working with youth and adults in both individual and group settings. Hmm, Art therapist? It means that I combine psychotherapy with the process of art making to help you explore and process emotions and thoughts that may be sometimes challenging to express into words.
