Therapists Beginning With P in Ontario
Hello! I am Pablo and I have been a psychotherapist for more than 20 years. My experience as an individual and as a marriage counsellor, has led me to develop a technique that creates an environment of freedom and safety to express your challenges. Psychotherapy for me is the possibility to question every option, have the freedom to consider the possible outcomes and consequences of our actions and to have the time and space to decide what can make you happier, prouder and fulfilled. Being fully bilingual (English-Spanish) I have helped individuals and couples in their particular circumstances and challenges in Canada.

If you've experienced sexual abuse (rape, childhood sexual abuse, sex trafficking) you've likely noticed changes in how you think, feel and act. Maybe you believe that you deserve what happened or that you should have done something to stop it. You may see the world as a dangerous place and struggle to trust. Perhaps you feel on edge, hypervigilant and out of control of your emotions - or maybe you don't feel them at all. You can't sleep, relationships are tough, you feel haunted by your memories. Sex and intimacy... what sex and intimacy? And it feels like nothing you've tried works. Sound familiar? It doesn't have to be this way.
