Virtual Therapy in Ontario Therapy that fits your week

Virtual therapy, also called online therapy or teletherapy, is psychotherapy over secure video or phone. It is the same kind of work you would do in a therapy room: a confidential, 50-minute session with a Registered Psychotherapist or Registered Social Worker who gets to know you and moves at your pace.

We want to be honest with you: in-person therapy is at the heart of what we do. Our clinic on Lake Shore Boulevard West in Etobicoke was designed to feel calm and genuinely comfortable, and there is something valuable about stepping out of daily life into a space set aside just for you. We also know getting there is not always realistic. That is why every therapist on our team offers virtual sessions, so you can get support wherever you live in Ontario.

When virtual therapy can be a good fit

• Your schedule is full and travel time would make therapy hard to keep up
• You live elsewhere in Ontario, outside our Etobicoke neighbourhood
• You value privacy and would rather talk from your own space
• You are a student or busy professional moving between campus, work and home
• Getting out the door is hard right now because of anxiety, low mood, illness or a new baby
• You are caring for children or family members at home
• You need an accessible option, since our clinic is not wheelchair accessible

Mixing in-person and virtual

You do not have to choose one or the other. Many clients mix both, coming into the clinic when they can and switching to video on busy weeks, in bad weather or when they are not feeling well. Most of our therapists offer in person, video and phone sessions, so you can keep the same therapist whichever way you meet. Some people start online and move to in-person sessions once they feel settled, and others do the reverse.

Private and secure sessions

Video sessions run on Jane, our secure booking and video platform, and your link arrives with your appointment reminder. To get the most from your time, find a quiet, private spot where you will not be overheard, use headphones if you can and check your connection a few minutes before you start. If home is busy, a parked car or a closed door can work well.
