Therapists in Ontario

Moha Chaturvedi

My work focuses on male survivors of sexual assault and trauma, and new parents. Through a non-judgmental and gently challenging approach, I help you examine areas of your life where you might be feeling stuck and support you in developing practical skills to take charge of your life.
Therapy can be a safe and confidential space where you can let your guard down and just be. Nothing is “too much” for you to share and we will work at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I use evidence-based modalities, such as EMDR, CBT, and EFT to help you form more meaningful relationships with yourself and others and feel more confident and secure. I’ve been told I am easy to talk to, so I welcome you to reach out.

Hello, thank you for visiting my profile. Dismantling stigma around mental health and promoting a culture of help seeking is very important to me. I work with relationship issues, work-related stress, loss, trauma, addiction, and anxiety. I have helped men, women and individuals of different ages, professions, diverse backgrounds and cultural groups with a wide range of difficulties and themes.
Our work together will help you feel more empowered, hopeful and in control when tackling life’s challenges and embracing change.
I recognize that seeking support or taking the step to speak to someone can be an intimidating process. I want to assure you that I will meet you where you are at; in a safe, kind, genuine, and non-judgmental space.

I work with individuals looking to overcome obstacles, navigate difficulties, and foster self-growth. I help couples discover new patterns of being together while restoring intimacy, passion, and commitment. With families, my hope is to strengthen relationship bonds and better understand differences.
I utilize a systemic, trauma-informed approach to therapy with individuals, couples, and families. I work with a variety of concerns and challenges from multiple therapeutic models, including dialogic therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and integrative therapy. Selecting the right therapist is important and I would be happy to meet with you for a free 20-minute consultation so you can see if I am a fit for you.

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.

I believe we all have the ability to work through our own struggles when provided with a safe nonjudgemental space to process thoughts, emotions and memories. I aim to provide that space to people as I have benefited from that process myself over the years. I don’t believe I’m an expert in anyone else’s life but I have expertise in listening, asking questions and helping people tolerate and regulate difficult emotions and thoughts. I have struggled in the past myself and know that a good therapist can make a huge difference, so I strive to be that therapist for others.
