Over the past few years, we have put together a diverse team of over 40 mental health professionals who are able to provide faith-based therapy that is religiously, culturally, and linguistically appropriate.
Each of our therapist’s profiles include their background and languages so you can easily browse through to find a therapist that is suited to your religious and cultural needs.
Though we are based in Toronto, we offer virtual sessions by phone or video, making therapy accessible to you from your own home.
Mental health concerns are best treated like any physical health disorder. You want to pay attention to and treat the symptoms, but more importantly, you want to address the root of the problem. This is why therapy is such an effective treatment for a range of issues, from anxiety to PTSD to anger, and more.
Therapy works by helping you figure out the ‘story’ of your mental health concern. When or how did it start? What triggers it? What maintains it? How does it impact the different areas in your life?
By unpacking the root of the problem, our therapists can then help you determine and practice coping skills using the appropriate modality to manage your specific symptoms.
At Wellnest, we aren’t here to provide bandaid solutions. Rather, we’re here to help provide you with a better understanding of the challenges you are experiencing and teach you how to manage them and prevent worsening symptoms in the future.
To get started with virtual therapy, we suggest these initial steps:
Learn about our team and pick a therapist you feel is a good fit for your needs.
Complete an initial assessment to help determine your wellness goals (no matter how specific or general they are).
After your initial assessment, you will begin meeting virtually with your therapist, either by phone or video. Sessions are typically weekly or biweekly, but depending on each client’s needs, the frequency can change over time.
At Wellnest, our therapists offer several therapeutic models, including:
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT)
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
Mindfulness-based therapies
Trauma informed care
Somatic therapy
Therapy is not a one size fits all treatment, so it will look and feel different to each client.
Your treatment can be adjusted as you progress through your sessions and learn what does or doesn’t work for you. If a modality or approach doesn’t feel right, it’s important to communicate with your therapist so you can learn how to work on it together.
