Are you uncertain how to move toward the personal changes you want to make? The Therapy Team offers a wide range of treatment options. We work with you to develop a plan to meet your specific needs, goals and life experience. Together, we will move forward to reach your full potential.

What We Treat

Anxiety can rob you from the life you wish to live. At times, you may experience racing thoughts, increased heart rate, panic attacks, disrupted sleep and other uncomfortable symptoms that make functioning hard. The Therapy Team is here to assist you in reducing your symptoms helping you feel more like yourself again.

Trauma makes it easy to get lost in the whirlwind of negative thoughts and emotions. The numbness can rob you of hope. Fear and isolation can slowly erode your emotional support network. And painful reminders, memories, and triggers keep you stuck in the past. At The Therapy Team, we understand the complexity of how trauma may impact your life.You don’t have to do this alone. We are here to assist you in helping you feel more like yourself again. 

Grief and Loss Therapy

Whether a loss was expected, traumatic or sudden we understand the pain of having to navigate the complex emotions that occur. The Therapy Team is dedicated to creating a safe space for you to process your feelings, find healing, and embrace hope once again. 

Post Partum and Prenatal Therapy

Therapy helps with the unique challenges of pregnancy, childbirth, and the early stages of parenthood. Prenatal and postpartum periods can be filled with joy, excitement, uncertainty and anxiety.  However, they also bring significant stress, relational challenges, mood fluctuations, and mental health struggles. The Therapy Team is here to help you navigate the ups and downs of building your family.

Therapy for Infertility

Infertility can be turbulent, isolating and an emotional roller coaster . The process can evoke feelings of excitement, anxiety, joy, and sadness. Each phase, from consultations and medications to procedures and waiting, carries its own unique set of emotions. It’s entirely normal to experience highs and lows, but you don’t have to face them alone.

Our therapists are here to support you through this difficult journey and help you navigate the uncertainties.

Depression Therapy

Battling depression can be an uphill battle that can leave you feeling defeated and hopeless. We understand how finding the motivation to move through your day both personally and professionally can be an arduous and all consuming task. The Therapy Team is here to assist you in lightening the load and helping you reach your full potential. 

Sex Therapy

Sex therapy is a specialized form of counseling that helps individuals and couples address and overcome sexual challenges, enhancing intimacy and satisfaction. Guided by trained therapists, this confidential and supportive process explores communication, intimacy, desire, and resolves issues to promote a healthier, more fulfilling sexual experience.

Parenting

Parenting brings immense joy and daunting challenges. Sleepless nights, financial strain, and constant worry test one’s patience. Balancing your work and family life can lead to burnout. Add to it the responsibility of shaping young minds and you are on a journey riddled with perils! Our team are here to help problem solve and build healthy connections with your children with less stress in your family.

Self Esteem

Low self-esteem can have debilitating effects on individuals, hindering their potential and well-being. It may lead to self-doubt, negative self-talk, social withdrawal, and reluctance to take on challenges. Addressing the root causes and seeking support can help individuals build confidence and lead a more fulfilling life.

Our therapists are here to help you in finding ways to feel more confident and secure so that you can live life to your full potential.

Frequently Asked Questions

Throughout the pandemic online therapy has proven to be equally as effective as in person sessions. For many, the lack of travel and time associated with in person appointments has been an asset to continue online therapy.

Fees for private psychotherapy are not covered by OHIP however, many extended health insurance plans cover psychotherapy.

You are responsible for payment and can seek reimbursement from your insurance provider using the receipts we provide at the end of every session. At this time, we are not able to bill your insurance directly.

No two people are alike and therefore it is impossible to predict the amount of sessions needed to make meaningful changes. In general, if you have limited funds available for therapy please notify your therapist and he/she will assist you in achieving the most out of your sessions by setting realistic goals at the start of your sessions.

Each person’s extended benefits plan varies. We recommend you check with your specific insurance provider to insure that our services are covered under your plan. There are several questions we recommend asking your provider:

1) Do I have mental health coverage benefits? If yes, under what discipline can I claim under?

2) What is my deductible and has it been met?

3) How many sessions per year does my plan cover?

4) What is the coverage amount per therapy session?

5) Is a referral from my family doctor required?

6) Does my provider allow for supervised practice therapists to provide the services?

Please note that you are responsible for payment of sessions and can use the receipts we provide to obtain reimbursement from your provider.
