Brown Counselling & Psychotherapy

Description

I offer a private and confidential space providing therapy to help people use their identified strengths to address current challenges and long-standing issues. It is important to explore one’s unique way of being with oneself, others, and one’s environment.
With sensitivity and compassion, I help individuals bring understanding to a wide range of life challenges and psychological distress, creating new paths and directions for developing personal and interpersonal awareness. As a Counsellor in Toronto… My emphasis is on integration of different approaches to bring together what is most helpful for the unique needs of my clients. I also place the utmost importance on the relationship that develops between us as a vital factor in our work together. My psychotherapy sessions are eligible for insurance coverage for those who have extended health care benefits through their employer. For those who don’t have insurance most often my fee is tax deductible depending on your yearly allotted medical amount allowed. Please check your group benefits plan for details of your coverage. For those who do not have insurance (or for when insurance coverage runs out): Under certain conditions I have sliding scale fees. If you have coverage to see a Social Worker (most plans) or Psychologist, then you can use your benefits for counselling services with me. Even if your plan specifies only Registered Psychologists, Social Workers like me who are affiliated with a psychological practice will still be covered by every plan. As a Toronto Psychotherapist, I have appeared on TV programs like eTalk & CBC Evening News as an Addictions & Mental Health Consultant educating the public about therapy, substance and mental health issues. I was awarded "Best Therapist In Western Toronto for 2011" by Shepell FGI a large provider of counselling to businesses internationally. This was based on customer satisfaction results. In addition, I was interviewed for articles published in “This Magazine“, fashion magazines, “BP Hope Magazine” about Bipolar Disorder and I was also featured in 2 documentaries one about divorce and one about conflict between couples. For 13+ years I have been helping others to better cope with a broad range of issues and my experiences lend themselves to helping current clients with similar issues.
