new mindset CBT is a virtual clinic specializing in anxiety, PTSD and related conditions.
I use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) to help you set realistic goals, learn new ways to respond to your negative thoughts, and change the behaviours that hold you back from living your best life. You are active in therapy, which helps maintain your progress in the long-term.
My aim is to work with you to help increase your confidence, and address the fears holding you back. If you think new mindset CBT is right for you, contact me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.

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.

Accepting NEW Clients (Individuals and Couples) – Are you feeling “stuck” in life and you’re looking for a way to better understand the steps forward? Have you heard of EMDR and you want to learn more about working through trauma and its impacts on your life? Is anxiety, stress, or low mood something you want to explore and learn strategies to cope differently? Are you a couple looking to work through infidelity, sexuality, or just simply want the skills to better communicate and understand each other?
I work with individuals and couples, where I also consider the impact of trauma and culture in the issues you’re looking to be supported with.

Rim Yassine

I work with adults—particularly men and queer/trans clients—who feel exhausted by coping alone, disconnected from themselves or others, or under pressure to “hold it together.”
My therapeutic approach is trauma‑informed, relational, and integrative. I draw from somatic therapy, attachment‑based work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and existential and narrative approaches.
Sessions are paced collaboratively, with close attention to nervous system regulation, safety, and consent. Rather than pushing for insight or change before readiness, the work unfolds in a grounded and steady way that supports lasting integration and deeper self‑trust.
I offer remote therapy across British Columbia and Ontario.
