My approach is non-judgemental, down-to-earth and goal-directed. Specialties are: Sex Therapy, PTSD, Stress, anxiety & depression, Career Testing (adults & teens). Individuals & couples counselling, teens & children. My focus is on short-term therapy. As an Adlerian Psychotherapist, I use an eclectic approach depending on client's needs, including cognitive-behaviour therapy. Art therapy is useful with children, teens and those too traumatized to articulate. We look at the past to determine how you got to where you are today, then move forward to examine issues weighing you down so that you may live your life to the fullest.

A therapist for 22+ years, I offer counselling for: Sex Therapy -- intimacy, dysfunction, victims of sexual abused/incest/rape. PTSD (Post Tramatic Stress Disorder) as a result of trauma, violence, rape, accidents, war. Also: Anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem, fears, coping, bereavement.

Ms. Sandra Tenus also hosts the following groups:

Career Testing for Grade 11 & 12 Students
20 Bay Street, Suite 1200, Toronto, Ontario
Every other Sunday, Saturday at 10am - 12am
$80 - $100 per session

As a former Head of Guidance with the Toronto Board of Education, I know first-hand: Guidance Counsellors do NOT have the time to work individually with your child to thoroughly help him or her choose a career area & university/college to get that training. Making the WRONG choice will waste a year of their life and a year's tuition. Even worse, they likely will become discouraged and drop out (or fail) because they are in the WRONG subject area -- one that is not compatible with their interests & strengths. I offer Group testing & individual counselling sessions. FLAT RATE

Email Ms. Sandra Tenus about this group or call (416) 691-0033
Bereavement Group for Young Adults
20 Bay Street, Suite 200, Toronto, Ontario
$70 - $100 per session

This group is designed for people aged 20 - 50 who have had a spouse, partner, sibling, child or close friend die. I was suddenly widowed at the age of 34. Every bereavement group I went to was full of little old ladies with grey hair -- I did not belong. I could not relate. This group is aimed at the younger adults who are struggling with the loss of someone close to them. I also hold bereavement groups for Teens and Children (separately). We often use art therapy, enabling expression through artwork when they are unable to express themselves through words.

Intimacy Issues with Victims of Sexual Assault
20 Bay Street, Toronto, Ontario
$80 - $120 per session

If you are the victim of sexual assault, sexual abuse or incest, you will have issues with intimacy in your future relationships. These will be on many levels, you may not even be aware of what the triggers are and why you react the way you do sometimes. It likely will affect your self-esteem, and how you behave in intimate situations. You may avoid intimacy, or be "hot and cold" and not know why. Through various means, including writing and art therapy, we will help you work through the stumbling blocks resulting in improved relationships with your partner / spouse.
