Supervision sessions at Therapy Villa can address:
Supervision is tailored to where you are in your training and what cases you’re actually encountering.
Yes. Therapy Villa offers clinical supervision via secure video to therapists anywhere in Ontario. Whether you’re based in Toronto, Etobicoke, or anywhere else in the province, you can access regular supervision without needing to commute.
Frequency depends on your regulatory requirements and your own professional development goals. Most supervisees at Therapy Villa meet biweekly or monthly, with additional availability for urgent case consultations. We’ll discuss what makes sense for your situation when you reach out.
Supervision involves a formal oversight relationship where the supervisor takes on professional responsibility for the supervisee’s cases — typically required for therapists working toward registration. Consultation is a peer or collegial relationship where a more experienced clinician provides guidance without that formal oversight responsibility. Therapy Villa offers both, depending on your registration status and what you’re looking for.
Reach out through our website or by email to express interest in supervision or consultation. We’ll schedule an initial conversation to discuss your training stage, the modalities you’re working in, the client population you’re seeing, and whether Therapy Villa’s supervision structure is the right fit.
Yes. Our supervising psychologist has advanced training in EMDR and can provide supervision for therapists who are learning or practicing EMDR with their clients.
Contact us to ask about current availability. Group supervision is offered when there is sufficient interest and an appropriate cohort of supervisees at similar stages.
This depends on your specific registration pathway. We recommend confirming with CRPO that our supervising psychologist meets the requirements for your qualifying hours before starting. We're happy to provide our credentials and registration details to support that process.
In most cases, yes -- clinical supervision is a professional development expense. Consult your accountant to confirm based on your specific situation.

Here’s what many couples notice before and after therapy:
Personalized therapy begins with understanding your unique experiences and goals. Through tailored sessions, we use techniques to address your challenges, foster growth.
The process begins with an in-depth conversation to understand your partner and your personal history, challenging experiences, relationships and goals. This helps us create a clear roadmap for your therapy journey.
Every person’s healing looks different. We draw from most effective therapies such as EFT, Gottman Method, CBT, Narrative therapy and mindfulness; choosing techniques that best match your needs and comfort level.
Therapy is a partnership. In each session, we work together at a pace that feels right, helping you process your emotions, build insight, practice new skills, and create meaningful changes in your daily life.
Your first session is a chance for your therapist to get to know you both – your relationship, concerns, and hopes. Think of it as a safe space to share openly and set goals together.
It’s common for one partner to feel unsure. If that happens, starting with individual sessions can still be helpful and often creates positive shifts in the relationship. Our approach focuses on building open and honest communication, even if only one partner is initially engaged in the therapy process.
Yes. Confidentiality is a top priority. Your therapist will explain exactly how your privacy is protected so you can feel comfortable sharing openly.
We offer different fee options through our team of therapists. Even our lower-fee therapists are carefully selected, trained, and supervised by a supervising psychologist or psychotherapist ensuring high-quality care at every level.
Therapy is a process and every couple’s journey is different. Even if changes take time, therapy can offer clarity, tools, and support for thoughtful next steps.
