  • About Lindsay Porter MSW, RSW

    Welcome! Thanks for stopping by my website.

    Reaching out for support can be difficult. Whether this is your first time seeking out a therapist or you’re a returning client, stepping into a therapy office can feel stressful. Cultivating an atmosphere of comfortability, authenticity and safety are skills that I bring to the therapeutic process.

    Since 2008 I’ve provided therapy to adults and youth struggling with a wide array of issues such as: adjustment to life transitions; anxiety; depression; trauma and PTSD; parenting stressors; perinatal and post partum anxiety and depression; work place stress; grief and loss; relationship stressors and issues of separation and divorce. I utilize evidence based treatment approaches to assist you to develop skills for achieving your goals and obtaining lasting change in areas of life that are meaningful to you.

    I obtained my Master’s of Social Work degree from the University of Toronto in 2008 with a specialization in mental health. Since then I’ve participated in a vast array of professional trainings to cultivate my clinical skills. The following are a list of treatment approaches where I’ve obtained enhanced training: Cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, narrative therapy; family systems theory; solution focused therapy and mindfulness based stress reduction techniques.

    If the services I offer could be a good fit for you, reach out for a free phone consultation. During this initial intake discussion we will explore whether the services I offer are suitable to your needs. I’m currently offering in person, phone and virtual appointments.

    We all need support

    Life is often challenging. Whether you’re struggling with unexpected life changes or recurring stressors that are affecting your wellbeing, speaking with a mental health professional can be the first step towards feeling less overwhelmed and creating meaningful change.

    I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most essential ingredient to the therapeutic process. Approachability, empathy and authenticity are qualities that I bring to the therapeutic relationship. Your respect and comfortability are of the utmost importance to me.
