Personalized Individual Therapy

Adam Lipsky RSE, BEd, MEd, RCC

As a counsellor, my goal is to create a safe, inclusive, and compassionate space for you to explore difficult thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. While starting therapy can feel daunting, it is a supportive and transformative process that can be both challenging and uplifting. My approach is respectful and collaborative, ensuring that therapy progresses at a pace that feels right for you.

If you’re interested in learning more about therapy or my approach, please reach out via email to arrange a free phone consultation. 

Why Seek Therapy?

Therapy offers a unique opportunity for self-reflection and growth that’s often hard to find in our busy lives. If you’re seeking personal development or facing challenges, therapy can be immensely beneficial. Here are some common reasons people choose to seek help:

  • Struggling with depression, anxiety, and or mood-related disorders
  • Noticing repetitive self-defeating patterns, things that keep coming back, that in your life that you would like to change or challenge
  • Experiencing chronic anxiety, stress, or persistent worry
  • Feeling out of control with food, activities or substances
  • Seeking deeper connections with others
  • Coping with traumatic experiences, whether current or past
  • Managing anger, grief, shame, or other intense emotions that feel overwhelming when they arise
  • Navigating relationship disconnection, potential divorce or separation, co-parenting support
  • Feeling overwhelmed by caregiving responsibilities
  • Feeling stuck or drained, living with a sense of quiet desperation

Everyone faces tough challenges and moments of distress, but for some, these struggles can become more than just temporary feelings. Reaching out for help during these times may feel overwhelming, but it’s a crucial step toward restoring balance and achieving well-being.
