Hello, my name is Ryan (he/him), and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and a MACP Practicum Student at Brighter Path Psychotherapy and Wellness. I am currently providing low-cost psychotherapy and counselling services under the clinical supervision of an approved practicum supervisor.

Therapy does not have to start with a crisis or a perfect idea of what is wrong. Sometimes you might just feel more stressed, irritable, tired, disconnected, or overwhelmed. My role is to help you understand what is happening, and what you would like to change. I provide online individual therapy across Ontario. You do not need to arrive knowing what exactly to say, just a desire to work on yourself or your problems. My aim is that our sessions feel conversational, and practically useful to you. Some sessions might simply be a space to talk and feel understood, while others might be more structured with a focus on goals. The main predictor of success in therapy is a strong therapeutic relationship, so we will focus on building trust and rapport, so you feel like you share without feeling judged. We will adapt based on your experience and find methods that best suit you. I draw from person-centered, solution-focused, narrative, and cognitive behavioural therapy. If you find it useful, we may use role-play to practice difficult conversations, asserting boundaries, dealing with conflict, or managing social situations. Please don’t hesitate to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation to determine if I would be a good fit for your needs.
