These uncertain Covid times have shone a light on the pressing need for mental health support services. St. Peter’s Parish and Dr. Egit have teamed up in addressing that need.
When is it time for mental health support? The question is puzzling. Are we; depressed enough, anxious enough, stressed enough, worthy enough? Those are imponderable quandaries on which to base a decision. The simpler questions are, “Have I been unhappy” and ,”Is my daily life a struggle?” If the answer is yes, then mental health supports are appropriate.
The service is free. There are a limited number of hours dedicated to this program. Dr. Egit will be available for appointments Wednesdays between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Each appointment will be 45 minutes in length. The sessions will be conducted online or by telephone. To arrange to speak with him, you are asked to call and book an appointment with the parish office (416-534-4219).
Dr. Egit is a psychotherapist and a psychoanalyst experienced in working with individuals and couples. He holds an MA and a Ph.D. from The University of Toronto and had completed his psychoanalytic training and certification from the Toronto Institute of Contemporary Psychoanalysis. He is registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario
