Warren Tews

From my youngest memory, I have been endlessly captivated by human nature. Each person is remarkably unique in their life experiences, personality, and where they have come from. However, one common thread that runs through the human condition is that at some point, life presents each one of us with problems that appear insurmountable. We have all been in that position, stuck in an issue that we can’t seem to solve. It can be frustrating, debilitating, and even feel hopeless.

You are not in this alone. It can be difficult to reach out for help but doing so can be one of the most valuable decisions you may ever make. Your emotions have evolved from millions of years of deep psychological algorithms, many of them unconscious. There is a good chance that you are feeling what you feel for logical and valid reasons, even if it may not seem that way. I am here to help you make sense of how you feel, what you are going through, and what you can do about it.

I take a person-centered and solution-focused therapeutic approach that allows you to be heard and understood with depth, non-judgment, compassion, and empathy. My methods are diverse and custom-tailored to the intricacies of each individual client I see. I draw primarily from a modality known as Informed Cognitive Therapy (ICT). Additionally, My practice is also directly influenced by traditional CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), Clinical Evolutionary Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, Behaviour Genetics, Esteem Dynamics, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

I have spent years cultivating a comprehensive understanding of human nature and a vast array of solutions and treatment methodology for many of life’s problems. My primary clinical interests center around anxiety and panic disorders, family conflict resolution, dating, depression and mood disorders, procrastination, process addictions, productivity, relationships, self-esteem, social-skills coaching, navigating friendship difficulties, loneliness in the modern age, men’s issues, work-related challenges, and helping to increase one’s standing in life’s competitive processes.

I am deeply invested in helping aid those who come to me in their journey. It would be an honour for me to work alongside you. Let’s make things better together!
