What Makes Us Different

because feeling safe and connected matters.

At Beaches Therapy Group, we believe therapy should feel supportive, accessible, and truly personal. From your very first contact, our care team is here to make sure you feel seen, understood, and guided every step of the way.
  • Our Match Guarantee — if your first fit isn’t the right one, we’ll cover your next BTG session with a new therapist, free of charge
  • Direct Insurance Billing to make access to care as simple and stress-free as possible
  • Therapists chosen from the top 1% of applicants, bringing exceptional skill, warmth, and experience to their work
  • Discounted rates through our internship program, ensuring therapy remains accessible for every budget

Our Therapy Services

In a city that thrives on hustle culture and burnout, mental health concerns often get brushed off as “being in your busy era.” We see it all the time in our Toronto therapy practices: high-functioning anxiety, emotional fatigue, the pressure to always be “on” or always saying, “I’m fine”, when you’re not.
It’s time to choose something different. Rest that’s actually restful. Setting boundaries that stick. Nervous system repair for lasting calm… and so much more. Healing starts with finally talking to someone about the hard stuff, like the anxiety that keeps you up at night, the stress that’s started to feel normal or why you cried in the back of an Uber after work one Tuesday… and don’t really know why.
If you’re ready for support, here are the services we offer, both in-person and online, to residents of Ontario.

What People Are Saying

As Seen In

How It Works

We understand that starting therapy can feel overwhelming, so we make it simple. We’ll match you with a friendly, experienced therapist who’s the best fit for you.

Book a FREE consultation
Our short intake form asks a few thoughtful, low-pressure questions, then helps you schedule a time to chat with our kind and experienced Intake Coordinators. They’ll help match you with the Beaches therapist who’s the best fit for you.
Meet your therapist
Then it’s time for your first session. You can come in-person to one of our three welcoming Toronto locations or meet your therapist online. Whatever fits best with your life, preferences and schedule. If it’s not the right fit, we’ll cover a FREE session with a different therapist, because the right connection matters.
Easy insurance support
Check with your insurance provider to confirm your coverage for psychotherapy or social work services. If you’re covered, our team will handle direct submissions on your behalf, so you can focus on your care, not the paperwork.

Voices of Care: Articles by our Therapists

Not quite ready to book an appointment? That’s okay! Our therapists regularly write detailed and helpful articles to guide you through some common mental health challenges you might be facing. While these articles aren’t a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment, we hope they offer a gentle first step toward understanding yourself a little better.

Estimated Reading Time: 6–7 minutes As the light fades earlier each day and Toronto settles into its long stretch of grey, many people begin to notice a shift inside themselves. Mornings feel harder. Energy dips. The world feels a little heavier, a little flatter, a little more out of reach. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and you’re not imagining it. This pattern is known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a form of depression that appears during the fall and winter months. For many of the individuals, couples, and families we support at Beaches Therapy Group, this seasonal change …

The Chatbot Will See You Now The idea that you could trade your human therapist for an AI chatbot sounds almost like sci-fi. But writer Olivia Stren at Toronto Life decided to try it. In her article, The Chatbot Will See You Now, she spends four weeks swapping her human therapist for an AI companion named Ash to see if technology could really fill that role. It’s a fascinating read, part curiosity experiment, part emotional cautionary tale, and it raises deep questions about what it means to be seen, heard, and understood in an age where algorithms listen too. What …

If you and your partner have ever whispered (or shouted), “Should we try couples therapy?”—you’re not alone. Maybe the tension's been brewing for a while. Maybe it’s been a series of minor annoyances, or maybe it’s a betrayal that cracked everything wide open. And now you’re wondering… Does couples therapy actually work? Here’s the deal: couples therapy can work, really well. But it’s not a quick fix or a one-session miracle. It takes effort, honesty, and both people being willing to show up and try. Let’s unpack what makes couples therapy effective, what it actually looks like, and why it’s …
