Romina Monastero

Amid joy and excitement, life is often filled with unexpected challenges. My goal is to help you navigate such challenges through a nonjudgmental and culturally sensitive approach. I believe that clients must be empathized with rather than pathologized. I will be there to listen and support you, regardless of what your unique story entails.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I hold a bachelor’s degree from the University of Toronto and a master’s degree in counselling psychology from Yorkville University. I am interested in helping clients navigate anxiety, relationship challenges, depression, and low self-esteem, and I am comfortable working with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I typically take a person-centred and cognitive-behavioural approach and enjoy implementing mindfulness during sessions. However, I recognize the importance of exploring other therapeutic modalities to suit the individual needs of each client.

I hope to build a strong therapeutic alliance with you and strive to create a warm and comfortable environment where you feel both at ease and home. This, essentially, is the foundation for progress and success. I am here to guide you toward your goals and will be patient, attentive, and understanding throughout your therapeutic journey.
