About Adam Vasey, MSW, RSW

Video or phone therapy for adults who live in Ontario

Hi, I'm Adam. I'm a Registered Social Worker who works with adults who have difficulty with stress and worry. My goal is to help you get to the point where things feel manageable again.

My Journey To Becoming A Therapist

I’m no different from the clients I see. Like everyone else, I'm human. I've been through both wonderful and difficult experiences, which have led me to become the therapist I am today.

I help people with anxiety because I know how unmanageable it can feel to live with excessive worries and stress. I believe that people arrive at therapy doing the best they can with the resources they have, and I want to help you start feeling like yourself again.

I Have A Genuine Interest In Supporting People To Feel Better

Being a therapist is invigorating. I love guiding people towards figuring stuff out and witnessing them achieve more fulfilling lives. The most rewarding thing about being a therapist is seeing a person walk away lighter, more free, and excited about their life.

I have a natural ability to:

  • Help people identify what they are feeling

  • Be flexible on the path of discovering what's going on

  • Accept people for who they are and in their current life circumstances

  • Help clients heal their past and manage the present

People who know me often say that I am a good listener who can help people feel heard and understood.

I am committed to guiding you to where things feel manageable again.

Our Sessions Are Focused On You

Sessions will provide you with the space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and goals. It's important to me to provide a non-judgmental space where you can be yourself and focus on setting goals and working on reaching them together. There isn't a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. Our sessions will fit your specific needs and concerns.

As A Therapist, I Embrace The Following Philosophies

  • I believe that you deserve to feel better

  • I believe that therapy works when both of us are committed to your healing

  • I believe that change is possible when you allow yourself the space to do the work

  • I believe that people underestimate their ability to change. It's possible to change. It's possible to enjoy life again.

  • I believe that the biggest thing standing in your way is the fear that life always has to be the way that it is now

My Professional Background

I received a Master of Social Work at the University of Windsor in 2008. I am a Registered Social Worker and member of the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (Registration # 816188).

I have more than 13 years of professional social work experience in diverse settings, including a residential treatment centre for children and youth and organizations supporting people experiencing poverty and homelessness.  I have more than 2 years of experience providing psychotherapy services to individuals.

I engage in ongoing formal training and supervision so that I can provide clients with the most effective evidence-based treatments available. I have completed the Level 1 and Level 2 Certificate Programs through the Unified Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Academy. These certifications involved more than 150 hours of evidence-based workshops since the beginning of 2021.

My primary approach is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), but I always work flexibly to honour the unique experiences and strengths that each person brings to therapy.
