Integration Therapy with Karen Jeffrey in Toronto

I am a registered psychotherapist, athlete, biohacker, intersectional feminist, adventurer, burner and all around humanist. Prior to getting my masters in counselling psychology, I worked as a pharmacist in clinical settings, biotech and sales. I’ve managed teams and projects but my passion lies in working with people one on one.

I have experience in addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, as well as depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, PTSD and ADHD. I am poly and kink friendly, and consider myself an ally to the LGBTQI2-S and BIPOC communities.

I use a holistic approach to psychotherapy. Through an integrated approach, we will not only address what is present in each session, but also what is stored in your body by way of trauma or past hurts that are affecting your day to day life. We will explore past patterns of relating, and use a mindfulness-centered and somatic approach for getting you unstuck, and healthier in each session.

For those that are new to therapy I provide psychoeducation around the brain, nervous system and attachment styles. I will help you to develop your own mindfulness practice and provide other resources for you to start feeling better quickly.

I believe that an honest and trusting relationship with a therapist is the start of a path towards healing and growth. Sometimes we just need a little push!

I keep abreast of the latest science and research surrounding psychedelic therapy and how they will assist in the treatment of trauma, PTSD and other disorders in the near future. If you are interested in learning more about these medicines please reach out. Currently i’m support those that are looking to educate themselves, prepare for or integrate experiences with psychedelics and other expanded states of consciousness.

How I work with Clients

I am a relational psychodynamic therapist, who stays on top of the latest evidenced based modalities. I provide education about neuroscience and attachment and in sessions, and use mindfulness, including present moment experience as tool for building awareness. Somatic (body focused) approaches will also play a key role in the process of healing.
Talk therapy and cognitive behavioural therapies work well, yet it's important to look at the whole self. If you're looking for something more, something deeper, getting to the root cause with therapy that helps you get back into your body, I can help you. You are unique, and therefore your therapy will be tailored to you.
