Counselling & Therapy For

Individuals

Sexual Issues

During the course of counselling and therapy, the psychologist helps a person to understand and change his or her problems, feelings and behaviours. In Canada, psychologists are registered and regulated in their province or territory by a professional board under provincial or territorial statute.

The primary therapeutic approach at GPS is cognitive-behavioural, incorporating interpersonal and emotion-focussed counselling and therapy.
