Adam Gelinas

First Step Men’s Therapy is a virtual men’s mental health clinic working with clients across Ontario on a wide range of mental health issues. We specialize in therapy for anxiety, depression, sex addiction, porn addiction, grief, trauma & PTSD, anger, men’s issues, low self-esteem and self-worth, first responders, and substance misuse. We serve all of Ontario through our secure telehealth platform for both individual and group therapy.

Men & Healing

Men & Healing believes that men can live happier and healthier lives. We further believe that with the right opportunity for change, the right approach, the most committed therapists working with innovative models of care, transformation can happen. Our core mission is: to support men, in a process of change, with structure and integrity.

We are one of the world’s leading clinics working in a male-centred approach to psychology and therapy. Our 20-plus years of experience and expertise in the field is well known. Our models of services have been taught internationally, the research outcomes for our trauma recovery services have been deemed clinically effective, and thousands of men have benefitted from our programs over the years.

In addition to individual therapy, we are one of the only clinics in Canada to offer a long-term childhood trauma recovery program for men. We offer many different group therapy options, focusing on anger management, sexual integrity, emotional integrity, and childhood trauma recovery (also called Men & Healing).

Ms. Jessica Armstrong

I believe that we all have the capacity to heal and process through emotional pain, however, I also acknowledge that sometimes we lose touch with our innate resources and safe connections. My role as a therapist is to provide space for clients in an empathic, non-judgemental, and curious manner in order to aid in their self-discovery. I work from a client-centred approach such that the client leads each session, while I provide reflection, feedback, and space for them to process and safely explore all parts of themselves. I incorporate components of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

NuHu Therapy

At NuHu Therapy, we provide a non-judgmental space to support anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship struggles, and more.

Using mindfulness-based, cognitive behavioural (CBT), dialectical behaviour (DBT), internal family systems (IFS), and person-centered therapy, we help men develop emotional resilience, self-awareness, and healthier coping strategies.

Our 100% virtual therapy makes support accessible across Ontario.

I work with adults (18+) who are experiencing concerns with depression, anxiety, addiction, and/or relationship issues. My training is in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (both for individuals and couples).

Afif Nassif

My work serves a wide range of adult individuals seeking therapy for anxiety, trauma, self-worth, self-esteem, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, and existential issues. You may realize an especially good fit with me if you’re a man and/or are a member of the BIPOC or gay communities navigating identity, trauma, and relationship difficulties, a young adult seeking meaning and fulfillment, or a professional struggling with stress & burnout.

I practice using an integrative, trauma-informed, and insight-oriented approach that draws on emotion focused therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance commitment therapy, attachment and family of origin work, and EMDR.

Hannah McGechie

My approach to therapy is grounded in social justice and anti-oppression, and guided by narrative frameworks. I believe our lives are shaped by the stories we and others tell us about who we are. When we decide to come to therapy, it’s often because stories about problems (and about how WE are a problem) are dominating our lives. My role is to help you examine these stories and your relationship to them, and to explore, create, and sometimes change the stories in your life.

Zain Abideen

I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where men can work through challenges with relationships, stress, anger, and personal growth. My approach is trauma-informed, blending evidence-based techniques like CBT and DBT with a practical, client-centered focus to help you build resilience and emotional balance.

I aim to help clients uncover the root of their struggles while developing tools to navigate life with greater confidence and clarity.

Mia Omara

I help people with ADHD who want to learn techniques to live a more structured life. I help people wanting relief from anxious thoughts that are holding them back from the people, places, and things that they love.

I aide individuals seeking to improve their relationships, whether they be romantic, familial, or friendships. I help people who need to improve their communication skills, and who want to feel more confident in every aspect of their lives.

I also help people recovering from Trauma and PTSD, specifically First Responders.

I primarily practice from a Biopsychosocial perspective. Modalities I will use include CBT, Mindfulness, Inner Child Work, EMDR, and Person-Centered Approach. I take a collaborative approach.

Mr. John Flesher

I was a police officer for 30 years and dealt with my own struggles, including ptsd and depression. My Master’s Degree helped me to heal and learned to help others in more effective ways. I work at numerous modalities, but strength-based and solution focused therapies are most frequently requested and used effectively. CBT, DBT, Choice and Reality Therapies for anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma and anger issues are areas of strength of application.

Molly Molnar

Whether you are an individual seeking support or a couple facing conflict, together we can work on your goals, explore your emotions, and develop strategies to help you overcome challenges in your life. I am dedicated to helping people feel seen, heard, and understood while supporting people in finding deeper connections to themselves, others, and building their resilience.

Kendra Armstrong

I provide therapy to those looking to explore coping strategies, interpersonal relationships, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, life transitions and more. I use an integrative approach pulling from multiple modalities including CBT, DBT, Somatic, Trauma-Informed, SFBT, etc. I provide a warm, calm, trusting place for my clients to discuss difficult topics, and help them navigate their experiences.

Mr. Jonathan Snowball

Do you suffer from anxiety? Are you having daily thoughts of worry, feelings of depression and doom? Have you experienced negative intrusive or obsessive thoughts, lost your motivation, trouble sleeping, feeling fatigued, have lost your motivation, muscle tension, difficulty focusing, or feeling isolated? Your life is likely full of stress. I specialize in working with men who have anxiety.

Do you want to live a life that is not controlled by fear? Life can be stress free. I can help you achieve this and gain a healthy quality of life. Let’s work together to learn coping skills, set boundaries, regulate your emotions, establish healthy thinking patterns, and focus on self care.
