Hello! My name is Maria Costaki and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I have also been an elementary school teacher in Ontario for 33 years. My passion for helping others lead me, in 2021, to pursue a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP - Yorkville University) so that I can work as a psychotherapist with adults, adolescents, and children over the age of 7.

I offer individual and couples counselling for a variety of issues using a collaborative approach, within a judgement free environment. The majority of my experience revolves around using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness based approaches, and Existential Therapy. I am also most familiar with mental health issues regarding anxiety, depression, stress, postpartum issues, obsessive compulsive tendencies, and self-esteem.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist registered with the College of Psychologist of Ontario. I have a Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology and an M.A. in Counseling Psychology from the Adler School of Professional Psychology in Chicago. My clinical training is integrative, and includes a directive Cognitive Behavioral method, a more introspective Psychodynamic approach, as well as a holistic Mindfulness style. I incorporate various therapeutic modalities into my clinical practice in accordance with the individual needs of each patient. I am fluent in English and Greek. I currently conduct virtual therapy.

As a therapist I aim to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can discuss personal and sensitive issues. I will work collaboratively with you to help you find the solutions that are best for you. Through psychotherapy you can explore negative emotions, gain insight to problematic thoughts and behaviours and learn healthy coping strategies that will help to rebuild your self confidence. If you are feeling depressed, anxious, stressed or overwhelmed therapy can help you overcome these feelings. If you are struggling in your relationships, therapy can help you create more satisfying and meaningful relationships.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a goal-oriented treatment that takes a hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving. The primary goal is to change patterns of thinking or behavior that are behind people's difficulties, and so change the way they feel, based on the idea that our thoughts cause our feelings and behaviours. CBT is effective with many adverse life events, including the following: *anxiety *depression *anger *stress *adverse life experiences *bullying *interpersonal and relationship difficulties (communication skills and conflict resolution) *stress management OCD, and *life transitions and adjustment.

Ms. Borden is now a successful international author with years of experience in CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy), anxiety/depression, PTSD, psychological assessments, couple and family therapy, corporate transformation, and much more.

I have had the opportunity to work with individuals who, just like you and I, can feel stuck, frustrated, and sometimes hopeless. Working with a psychotherapist in a therapeutic relationship gives you the opportunity to explore your thoughts, feelings, and patterns of behavior, which can be transformative. I know that the beauty of psychotherapy is that it addresses not just the symptoms but also the causes of one’s problems. I practice with a holistic approach to mental health that it not only helps you understand yourself better, but it helps you understand other people.

Difficult life experiences can make coping with daily events challenging. Some people isolate themselves in a variety of ways due to fear of burdening or not being understood by those around them. For others, unprocessed adversity from childhood can leave them feeling a disconnect from the world, loved ones, and even their own bodies. The affects can be feelings of depression, anxiety, shame and/or self-doubt. Counselling is a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore the parts of yourself you have difficulty exploring elsewhere and get tools to help you live the life you want.
