Ezra Braves, Psychotherapy – The Annex Therapy, Toronto, Ontario
At The Annex Therapy in Toronto, Ontario, Ezra Braves offers expert relational psychotherapy tailored to address a range of complex issues. Relational psychotherapy is highly effective for those dealing with anxiety, caregiving tendencies, narcissistic and neglectful parenting, attachment issues, self-sufficiency struggles, hypervigilance, isolation, authenticity, masculinity, meaninglessness, depression, shame, complex emotional and intergenerational trauma, identity crises, and existential angst.
Ezra Braves’ practice integrates insights from attachment theory, trauma research, polyvagal theory, and neurobiological perspectives, all while being grounded in mindfulness and empathy. This holistic approach also considers the broader social, political, and economic contexts that shape your relational experiences.
With a focus on empathy and engaged listening, we will delve into your subjective experience to understand what may trigger self-protective behaviors, emotional reactions, and withdrawal from relationships. We aim to uncover and address feelings of anger, shame, and isolation, while also acknowledging the vulnerable parts of you that seek deeper connection and understanding.
In our sessions, we will explore your primary attachment relationships to understand how these foundational connections shape your sense of self in both mind and body. This exploration not only examines early experiences but also clarifies how past relationships and experiences influence your current life.
