Catherine Kovacich, MSW, RSW

PSYCHOTHERAPIST

Registered Social Worker and Assistant Clinical Professor at McMaster University, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neuroscience

Psychotherapy offers a compassionate space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences with the support of a trained professional. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, or simply seeking greater self-understanding, therapy is a collaborative journey toward healing and growth. It’s a place where you’re heard without judgment, where your struggles are met with empathy, and where each step—no matter how small—is honored. You don’t have to go through it alone.
