Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy (often referred to as “talk therapy”) is therapy to help individuals currently experiencing emotional and/or behavioural challenges. This form of therapy focuses on helping an individual improve and maintain their mental health and well-being. Psychotherapy often provides treatment for diagnosable mental health issues. The client and therapist work together to positively influence a client’s thoughts, feelings, behaviour and social functioning when these areas are negatively affecting their relationships and quality of life.
Psychotherapy can only be provided by the properly qualified professionals designated in the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991, which includes Registered Psychotherapists and Registered Psychotherapists (Qualifying).
Clients of Nicole Ritonja Psychotherapy Services also have access to evaluation and medical monitoring with a OHIP psychiatrist with no wait times through her affiliation with Psychotherapy Matters as requested and needed.
