Therapists in Canada

Mr. Greg Gruben
Mr. Greg Gruben
I know the challenges associated with reaching out for help and while it is not easy, it is very beneficial, not only for you but those you love.
First off, I am an Indigenous man who has worked through my own issues and continue to do so. I am a residential school survivor and survivor of various abuses and traumas. In my practice I combine my academic, experiential, traditional and ceremonial knowledge to assist those I work with.
I employ an eclectic blend of styles such as Narrative, DBT, CBT, EMDR to name a few, all of which are employed to best meet the needs of the individual as therapy is not a one size fits all.
Looking for someone with similar experiences and has first hand knowledge and experiences, please reach out.

Men long to be heard and understood while being respected and admired for what they have to offer. My interest and expertise is to help men achieve success in their lives by expressing their wants and needs plus attuning themselves to the needs and desires of others so that they can live happily with those they love. I also specialize in the areas of Addiction, Trauma and Criminology.

I have worked with individuals dealing with a broad range of concerns for over 15 years. This includes periodic difficulties (e.g. depression, anxiety, addiction, and insomnia), and more persistent concerns (e.g. maladaptive coping, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem).
I use a flexible approach drawing on training and experience in a number of theoretical orientations including: mindfulness-based, cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, and humanistic therapy. I work with clients to establish meaningful and concrete therapeutic goals that form the basis for monitoring progress.

Mr Douglas Matear
Mr Douglas Matear
“Clients are the experts of their own lives, and wellness is not a state of being, but a state of action.”
Douglas Louis Matear is a long-time practitioner of EMDR but uses a variety of approaches that best suit the needs of his clients. His diverse work and life experiences suit him well in navigating difficult conversations. Early childhood trauma, the impact of abuse, anxiety, depression, and an anti-deficit frame are at the core of his work. Cross-cultural sensitivity and being a member of the LGBTQIA2P+ community have enriched his therapeutic approaches. He is further interested in stress reduction, mindfulness, the importance of exercise, and coaching clients to be the best they can be.

Life today can feel like a constant race. Social media, career pressure, and messages about masculinity can leave you anxious, frustrated, or disconnected.
I work with young men who feel stuck, discouraged, or unsure of their direction. Therapy is a space to slow down and look closely at your thoughts, feelings, and patterns without judgment.
I do not give advice or try to fix you. I work collaboratively with you to build awareness, understand what is getting in the way, and reconnect with a sense of purpose and meaning that feels real and workable in your life.
