Online psychotherapy and couple therapy

Canadian man and women from rural and Northern Ontario feel relieved and re-invigorated after commpleting short term therapy online

Beth Mares RP has trained in both psychotherapy and addictions, and is licensed by the Ontario government. She has provided therapy and marital therapy in Toronto since 1987.

Beth describes her work:

Individual therapy for relationships and mental health

Much of my time is spent helping people with their relationships, ranging from intimate and family relationships to dealing with friends, colleagues and even members of the public.

The other aspect of my work deals with mental health issues such as stress, insomnia, anxiety, depression and OCD. I'm also experienced with family of origin issues and past trauma, as well as the following:

Adult children of alcoholics issues
People dealing with the after-effects of growing up with a problem drinker--anxiety, relationship problems and many others. more

Compulsive sexual behaviour, problematic fetishes, intrusive thoughts
This includes sex addictions, fetishes that bother one or one's partner, and obsessive sexual thoughts and images.

Recovery from religion
for those who grew up in an anti-humanist or rigid religion. The results often show up as inappropriate guilt and shame, anxiety, relationship problems, workaholism and difficulty experiencing pleasure. Often my help is needed with difficult family relationships in the present. I also work with people who have been involved in a cult, religious or otherwise.

Most of my work with couples concerns communication, problem-solving, infidelity, sexual satisfaction, and problematic relationship or family dynamics. See couple therapy, infidelity, conflict of loyalties. I also work with the following:

Long distance relationships
Couples separated by career, family obligations, immigration etc. more

Discernment therapy: deciding whether to end a relationship
Discernment counselling is a time-limited process for couples who are uncertain whether they should end their marriage/ relationship, such as when one partner wants to end it and the other wants to continue it. The counsellor poses relevant questions to think about and gives relevant information about how relationships work, as well as facilitating communication, problem-solving and individual decision-making. When the couple decides to remain together, it is usually followed by couple therapy to overcome problems and build back better. When the decision is to separate, help is offered to make things go as smoothly as possible.

Distance counselling in Southern and Northern Ontario

Beth's online mental health service is now provided via Doxy, which complies with Ontario privacy standards for psychotherapy and medical appointments. Common topics for internet therapy are relationships, including communication, intimacy, sex therapy, pornography addiction and other sex addictions; adult children of alcoholics issues; stress management, anxiety disorders, insomnia and depression; assertiveness training; parenting and family problems; coming out and other GLBTQ+ issues; and mental health information.

Some people in Northern Ontario and small towns througout Canada choose the privacy of videocounselling with an outsider even when there is a qualified psychotherapist in town; on-site counselling at home or at work is also useful for people who find it difficult or inconvenient to attend a clinic.
