About Alex
Registered Psychotherapist, M. Ed., RP – Practising in Toronto, Ontario
Alex Belakovsky
Registered Psychotherapist, M. Ed., RP
As a therapist with over 25 years of experience in the mental health care field, my mission is to provide you with a safe space where you can learn to lead a richer, fuller life. No single type of psychotherapy is large enough to address all the parts of being human. There really is nobody quite like you and my task is to work with your individuality in order to truly support you. This is why I focus on your future strength, not your past or current challenges.
It’s why I use a variety of resilience-building therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive-Behavioural-Therapy (CBT), Dialectical-Behavioural-Therapy (DBT), Relational Process Experiential Therapy (RPET), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and. Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) approaches.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology from OISE/University of Toronto and I am a Registered Psychotherapist in the province of Ontario. I also possess additional specialty training in CBT, DBT, RPET, and EFT and have been specializing in mood and anxiety disorders.
