I work to create a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts, emotions and behaviours. Through a client-oriented approach, I aim to help clients uncover the underlying roots of their problems and symptoms. I believe that a symptom important enough to instigate a trip to the therapist has typically resulted from many different interacting factors. In my practice, I assist clients in exploring these factors and the dynamic organization to the way they unconsciously register experience. By doing so, we can work to bring about desired changes.

New clients are currently being accepted in my office. I am a clinical psychologist who works with individuals between the ages of 12 and 64 to help with stress, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, and a variety of other concerns.

Hello and welcome! Being a parent can be frustrating, lonely, draining and confusing. At the same time, being a child/teen is also so confusing, stressful and overwhelming much of the time. While these relationships can be a source of pain, our connection to each other is also essential to our well-being. I work with children, teens and parents to help understand, work through and heal from pain and rebuild joy through connection. I will spend a lot of time really getting to know you and your family’s story. I aim to be compassionate and non-judgmental, understanding we all have a good reason for why we do the things we do.

I believe that all people harbour significant potential for intimacy and compassion towards themselves and others. Grief, betrayal, trauma, stress, and abuse are becoming part of everyday reality. Without support, they may lead to helplessness, depression, anxiety, addictions, or unhelpful coping strategies that inhibit their true potential. Over the past two decades of my professional career and my training in psychotherapy, I learned that the best path forward comes from within. Healing becomes within reach with the help of a trained professional and confidant who can listen, relate, and gently guide you as you navigate forward.

The journey of motherhood often comes with unexpected challenges, uncertainty, vulnerability, shifts in identity, feelings of inadequacy, and other worrisome emotions. When our parenting journey does not meet our expectations, we can sometimes be left feeling depressed, overwhelmed, hopeless, fearful, and ashamed. I have a special interest in working with pregnant and postpartum women who are struggling with depression, anxiety, or trauma-related disorders. Utilizing best practice approaches, I also provide support, compassion, and encouragement for women experiencing infertility, pregnancy loss, and birth and reproductive trauma.

Would you like to learn how to deal with difficult emotions, tackle troublesome thoughts, improve relationships, and feel better about yourself? I believe that, by identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, we can become “unstuck” and build inner strength. In my practice, I meet clients where they are at and support them with empathy, respect, and identity-affirming care, while creating a safe space to facilitate personal growth.

Because it's hard. Because it's heavy. Because it hurts. Because you've been struggling for a while, and it's time to reach out. You have good reasons for feeling this way. Let's discover those good reasons together, and find ways for you to live alongside anxiety and depression, stress and change, grief and loss, parenting challenges, and/or trauma. Along the way, we will learn about your perspectives and values. Some clients want to explore their pasts to help understand their present, while others want to focus on the current situation. Whatever the case, I will help you reconnect with the wisdom and strength you already possess.

My goal is to support clients with finding the direction and solutions they are seeking to the challenges they face. I provide a welcoming space for clients to explore personal uncertainties and learn concrete strategies to accomplish the healing, change, and growth they hope to achieve.My practice is to embrace diversity and a collaborative ,anti-oppressive ,non-judgmental approach . My approach is to work in partnership with clients to restore healthy communication, trust, emotional connection, and intimacy within their lives.

Vacation ALERT: out of office until August 13, 2024.

You walk through life feeling empty and lacking purpose and meaning. You dabble in negative coping mechanisms to find momentary relief.

Over my 15 years of practice, I have specialized in working through these challenging life experiences and have accompanied my clients to find joy, fulfillment, and meaning in their journey.

Being overly worried about what others think takes up a lot of time and energy, often leaving you feeling overwhelmed and burnt out. Trying to balance your time between school and work can make it difficult to connect with others on a deeper level and maintain meaningful relationships. You’re tired of feeling lonely and worthless. You’re not where you want to be and want to make a change. Experiencing these emotions doesn’t mean that they have to take over your life — I am here to support you in better managing them when they show up.

I am the owner and operator of Margarita Rabinovich & Associates. I believe that most of us decide to seek help through psychotherapy when we have painful feelings or destructive impulses that cause difficulties in our lives and the lives of others we care for or love. Most individuals are affected by periods of discouragement and hopelessness, feeling disconnected, numb, distressed, unable to function or anxious. You are not alone. Many mental health disorders can be episodic and often is a response to a way of life that does not align with our more profound sense of meaning and authenticity or to unexamined early traumas.

Burnout, anxiety and stress. Does it feel like you’re working harder than ever yet your goals feel increasingly out of reach? You might be exhausted from juggling your various roles and responsibilities while feeling like you should be doing more. You feel isolated, even when you're around others because they just don't 'get it'. You might feel hesitant to seek support for your feelings/experiences because they seem "not as bad" compared to the challenges of those around you. All of this aside, you know you've reached your limit and find yourself wanting something to be different.
