Description
Transforming Emotions is team of passionate clinicians who are skilled in creating a safe and respectful environment and in providing high-quality care grounded in empathy and evidence-based practice. Whether you are struggling with low mood, depression, anxiety, stress, burn-out, life transitions, grief, parenting, or relationship stress, we are here to support you as you reach out for help.
At some point in our lives, most of us will wish that we could feel differently within ourselves, within our most important relationships, or within our communities.
At Transforming Emotions, we know that excellent therapy is built on trust, safety, and competence. Period. During your first session or two, your counsellor will listen and ask some questions to learn more about what is troubling you, and about how you have come to this point in your life. By the third or fourth session, your therapist will share with you their ideas for how they will work with you to make sure you are both on the same page in terms of your treatment goals and how to achieve them.
Transforming Emotions is comprised of a team of psychologists, social workers, psychotherapists, and students in advanced stages of training. We provide virtual care in the provinces of Ontario, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, and limited in-person care in downtown Toronto.
As a practice, we attract team members who are passionate about providing high quality care, and who are themselves committed to lifelong learning to continually incorporate new knowledge and skills into treatment. All of our team members share a central focus on working directly with feelings as they arise in session. Collectively, team members have developed skills in diverse evidence-based models including Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Emotionally Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Therapy, and Narrative Therapy.
Transforming Emotions’ diverse team members understand the importance of creating safe spaces to explore issues related to both mental health and to social location. We are an explicitly queer-positive practice, welcoming members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community as well as individuals identifying as members of racialized communities and those living with visible and invisible disabilities.
We welcome you to reach out to learn more about working with one of our team members.
