OVERVIEW
​
We provide individual, couple and family psychotherapy in-person and in a virtual format. Therapy sessions are designed to address a range of clinical and day-to-day problems using a personalized and integrative approach of evidence-based treatment strategies. We also provide topic-based workshops and group therapy using a Dialectical and Behavioural Therapy (DBT) informed approach.
WHAT TO EXPECT
​
Prior to beginning therapy, you will be asked to fill out a brief personal information form and to sign privacy and payment policy forms, stating that you understand your privacy rights and our fees as well as give us consent for your treatment. Your therapist may also ask you to complete a behaviour checklist in order to establish a baseline measure of your current behavioural functioning.
​
For individual, couples, and family therapy, the first session (intake) is designed to gather information about your social and emotional history as it relates to your current situation. The therapist will ask you to tell them what issues you would like to work on and, together, you will develop an agreed-upon treatment plan. There is no set number of sessions for any one particular issue, as factors like readiness to change and ability to implement and follow through with strategies acquired during therapy vary from person to person. However, based on your psychological profile, your therapist will provide you with an approximate recommended number of sessions (and their frequency) for treatment.
There is no wrong way to do therapy. You can count on our therapists to be supportive and nonjudgmental, no matter the issue.
