Mr. Patrick Pretty

I utilize an integrative and experiential approach adjusted to each individual. A combination of the following approaches is used: Existential-humanistic therapy, Schema therapy, Transactional analysis, Attachment therapy, Relational therapy, Core-life value therapy, Cognitive-emotional therapy, Solution-focused therapy. My approach capitalizes on the strengths and abilities of individuals from all walks of life to access internal and external resources for spawning positive life changes and self-growth. The client, with the alliance of the therapist, can create solutions for the challenging obstacles that life holds, and therapy focuses on individuals’ resilience, values, and skills, via compassion, empathy, active listening, and sensitive services.

Jason Carrasco

I am a Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Marriage and Family Therapist and Co-Founder of Relationship Matters Therapy Centre. The way I work with clients is very person-centred, and collaborative. I recognize how we do not live in isolation. We all live in the context of much larger systems and multiple relationships that inevitably have an impact on how we experience the world. I like to keep things fair, down-to-earth, respectful, and equitable while creating an anti-oppressive space with clients to talk about the things that really matter to you

I specialize in empowering young adults in their late teens, 20s, and 30s reclaim confidence, happiness, and fulfillment, despite the challenges of low self-esteem, anxiety, and relationship struggles.

If you struggle with feeling that you are not enough, thinking that something is wrong with you, self-criticism when you don’t meet impossible standards, constant comparison that leaves you feeling “less than”, or the debilitating need for external validation, approval, and desire to please others even it its at your own expense, I would love to play a part in helping you get to the root cause of your concerns and equip you with the knowledge and tools needed for lasting positive change.

Corey Sleep

I take a holistic approach to mental health, and have worked in fitness and areas of spirituality prior to my work as a therapist. I help men figure out their lives as they reconsider their past, close the chapters they have yet to close, and move on to the next phase of their journey. Whatever the issue, I like to attack both symptoms and the roots of whatever ails you with a mix of Cognitive-Behavioural and Narrative therapeutic approaches.
