Tehmina Butt
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
About
I believe that every person has the inherent capacity to heal, grow, and build meaningful connections in their lives and relationships. My work as a therapist is rooted in the understanding that, with the right support, individuals can find new ways to understand themselves and connect with others. I am committed to creating a safe, compassionate space where you can be your authentic self and feel fully accepted. In our work together, I see your strengths, gently encourage growth, and offer empathy and unconditional positive regard.
I support individuals and couples as they explore their deeper emotional needs and attachment patterns, fostering more secure and fulfilling relationships. Whether you are navigating personal challenges or seeking to strengthen your relationships, I guide you in connecting with your emotions and developing healthier patterns of interaction and communication. My goal is to foster a sense of emotional safety and trust, both within yourself and with those around you.
In addition to utilizing Emotionally Focused Therapy for both couples and individuals, I integrate Internal Family Systems, mindfulness-based practices, and somatic experiencing techniques to support healing and growth. I also draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and strength-based approaches to tailor the support to your unique needs. My approach is culturally responsive, faith-sensitive, and trauma-informed, with a deep respect for each individual’s unique journey.
Starting the journey of therapy takes a lot of courage, and I am here to offer support and compassion as we explore how best to move forward together. If you feel ready to take that step, please don’t hesitate to reach out for an introductory call so we can see if we’re a good fit.
