Emad Zahedi

Registered Psychotherapist/CCC (R.P. )

*Please note that as part of the couples therapy process, Emad typically meets individually with each partner for information gathering and treatment planning. While these sessions are part of the overall couples work, they are billed at a higher rate than standard individual counselling due to their specialized nature and purpose within the couples framework

With years of experience in the field of mental health and a heartfelt commitment to supporting individuals and couples, I have become acutely aware of client-specific needs and am dedicated to using a holistic approach that places the client at the centre of their healing journey. Drawing on my life experiences, my approach is grounded in empathy, warmth, and professionalism. 

 

I am dedicated to serving individuals from diverse backgrounds and providing a safe and judgement-free space that allows for clients to freely speak their truth. I also recognize the complexities of the male psyche and that men face unique pressures and expectations in society, and I work closely with them to address these concerns with curiosity and compassion. I also support couples in navigating through challenges to enhance their communication patterns, deepen their connection, and build a more fulfilling relationship.

 

Recognizing the value of taking my clients’ physical, mental, and spiritual well-being into account, I believe in meeting my clients where they are and tailoring therapy to fit their unique needs. Our therapeutic journey may draw from a range of modalities, including evidence-based ones such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), as well as humanistic ones such as Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Person-Centred Therapy, among others, to offer an integrative approach to empowering you through your healing journey. 


In our sessions, I will equip you with practical tools for coping with stress, improving communication, and fostering healthier relationships. As you integrate these tools into your daily life, you will notice a newfound sense of confidence, self-awareness and/or resilience. l am committed to building a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients so that we can uncover root causes and embark on this journey together.


If you are ready to take the next step towards healing, I would be honoured to be part of your journey and look forward to working with you.
