Therapists in Canada

Mr. Paul McIsaac
Mr. Paul McIsaac
I have been working with adult individuals and couples for over 10 years now. My practice focuses on existential humanistic therapy, compassionate counselling for those suffering grief, loss, pain, and isolation. Ultimately, the main goal is to discover one’s meaning and develop it to build more strength and confidence to achieve other goals. Many of my clients are men suffering depression, some even contemplating suicide. I use cognitive behavioural therapy to assist them in analyzing and coordinating their thoughts, behaviours, and actions into more effective and satisfying lives. I work online and by telephone with Canadian clients in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as the Territories. Remote therapy only.

I’m passionate about welcoming individuals of all backgrounds into my practice and my primary areas of focus are clients with anxiety and depression, substance use challenges, developmental trauma, stress management, and life transitions. I use a trauma-informed and anti-oppressive lens to guide my clients in finding greater strength and resiliency in their lives. As someone who has changed careers a few times, I understand the process of finding purpose in your life and am able to provide tools to those searching for meaning in their everyday lives. I also have personal expertise within the LGBTQ+ community and do specialize in supporting clients navigating life transitions and matters of identity.

My main focus is understanding the people I work with. I am curious about why we behave, think, and feel like we do and I want to help you know your life story more meaningfully. The most important relationship you can have is the one you have with yourself. My goal is to help people learn how to reconnect and rediscover themselves, with the aim of cultivating a more compassionate and understanding relationship with oneself, ultimately leading to a greater understanding of who you truly are. As a directive therapist, my approach is marked by a profound intuition, a keen attunement to others, and an unwavering sense of compassion. In our sessions, we’ll delve into the art of emotional regulation and fortify the mind-body connection.

I specialize in working with men who are outwardly functioning but internally feel disconnected, stuck, or reactive. Many are carrying pressure, providing and performing, but lack space to process what’s happening underneath. My work is not about changing who you are, but expanding your capacity to stay grounded, think clearly, and respond instead of react.
We focus on reconnecting with the emotions driving behavior. When ignored, they show up as anger, shutdown, addiction, or conflict. I offer an open, non-judgmental space while also being direct and structured. This is not passive talk therapy. I use targeted tools and interventions to help you create real, lasting change.

My own practice is focussed on working with men and professional pilots. I spent over 20 years as a professional pilot, from air ambulance to airline, and I have developed a strong ability to assess risk.
My training included a sound academic base and focussed on the soft skills of professional counselling such as listening and attending, making sure a client is seen and heard. I continue taking further training, particularly in areas that have evidence of being effective in treating trauma, PTSD and C-PTSD. My approach is client centered, trauma informed and can include the modalities of EMDR, narative therapy, CBT, REBT, parts work (IFS), and somatic elements.

Over the years as a psychologist, I have learned that you can be good at working in many areas, but you can only be great at some, so I decided to gather a team of therapists whom I trust and that have unique skill sets and varying personality styles to compliment my own and provide other alternatives for you. My team supports all ages and concerns. Many of us enjoy working with men on ‘what it’s like being a man in this day and age’ stuff, as it’s a different landscape to navigate these days! Please check out my website to see all of us and how we can best assist you.
