It’s always a treat to chat with OSRP members and this one was no exception. Ellis has been a practicing psychotherapist for 20 years. Like most psychotherapists, he wanted his life to impact others positively. Through his training it became clear that he wanted to have a broader impact than on just an individual; he wanted to create the possibility of generational change. So, he pursued a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Tyndale University, believing that if a couple can change their negative patterns into positive, connected patterns, then a new normal would be modeled for their children, thus creating the possibility of generational change. I couldn’t agree more.
Ellis’ practice has two locations, one in Mississauga and the other in Downtown Toronto, and serves clients virtually and in person. His modalities include EFT, narrative therapy, CBT, and Internal Family Systems theory.
Ellis’ self-care practice includes running, and listening to podcasts, particularly one hosted by Lex Friedman, who explores the balance between science and the human condition
Ellis’ clinic is accepting clients at the moment, and can be found through the link below:

Thank you, Ellis, for a lovely chat. I wish you and your practice health and success!

THANK YOU!
I want to thank all the members who have filled out the Member Spotlight form since the beginning, especially the ones I didn’t get a chance to meet in person. Unfortunately, I only have time to speak with one member each month, but I want the rest of you to know that I see you, and appreciate your engagement and courage in putting your name in the Member Spotlight hat.
With love,
Mahshad
Would you like to be featured in the next Member Spotlight? Just fill in our quick survey and tell us about yourself. If chosen, your spotlight will also be shared on OSRP's social media platforms.
I look forward to learning and sharing about members all over Ontario, especially the ones working in the more remote regions, and ones with diverse approaches, or serving diverse and marginalized populations.
With love,
