Anxiety Therapists in Toronto, ON

All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming (Helen Keller). I am a psychoanalyst and offer treatment for anxiety, depression, stress, loss, grief, low self-esteem/confidence and shyness. I specialize in issues arising from adult and childhood trauma, relationships with family or colleagues, life transitions of any form and gender identity. I believe it is equally important to work on our inner and outer selves and to include our past and present in order to develop a grounded and balanced sense of being. I provide a safe environment in-person or virtually where you can explore and develop your thoughts further.

What does it feel like to be stuck, worried, or uncertain of your life's direction?

Together, we will softly challenge those feelings and beliefs, while mapping out a clear path towards renewed harmony with the world.
