About
Vivian Nho
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Registration Number 15008, College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario
As a therapist, I am dedicated to helping individuals holistically improve their mental health and develop better relationships with themselves and others. Psychotherapy is my passion and using a combination of traditional time-tested approaches and new modern evidence-based ideas, I aim to provide my clients with effective and tailored therapy.
Guided by my values of compassion, creativity, and authenticity my goal as a therapist is to help my clients get what they need. Clients often connect with my real-world, authentic, and practical approach to therapy, as well as my sense of humor. I’m open with my clients, recognizing that we are all navigating this tricky world together. My own lived experiences strongly influence my desire to help others break through what’s keeping them stuck. Whether you are feeling stuck, or are struggling with challenges related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use, or trauma, I am here to help.

Qualifications & Trainings
-
Cognitive-Behavioural OrientedWrite Here Clinicians working at our practice primarily operate from a cognitive-behavioral theoretical orientation that places a strong emphasis on helping clients change their relationship to difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Our clinic’s emphasis on cognitive-behavioural approaches means that you can expect the therapy you receive to be practical, logical and intuitive, and provide you with clear skills, strategies, and resources that can be used in your life.
-
Goal-FocusedGoal-focused therapy lets you specify what you want to get out of therapy, allowing you and your therapist to develop a plan for getting there. Even if your goals for therapy are simply about having someone to talk to about difficult life circumstances or sorting out challenging thoughts and feelings, it is worthwhile for both you and your therapist to be clear on this. Goals also allow therapists to develop a plan that takes into account your resources and budget for therapy, ensuring we work within the financial and schedule limitations we need to. Therapists at our clinic are goal-focused and will help you both set goals, take steps towards helping you meet those goals, and continuously evaluate progress and your satisfaction with the direction of therapy.
-
Person-CentredAt our practice, our therapists use a person-centered approach that is catered to you and designed around your specific needs, goals, and life context. We do not take a ‘rinse-and-repeat’ or protocol-driven approach to therapy. Rather, based on your goals for counselling, we will co-develop a specific treatment plan with you, drawing on what we know as therapists and what you know as the expert on your own life and history.
-
Evidence-BasedPsychotherapy approaches that are considered evidence-based have been rigorously evaluated by researchers across many different studies and found to be effective in improving various psychological problems and mental health concerns. Pursuing approaches that are validated by research is an important step to ensuring that you receive a high-quality therapy plan and preventing harm that can sometimes occur when receiving treatments that are not evidence-based.
