Transforming Emotions

Jake Gellman, M.Psy.

(he/him)

Clinical Associate

Pain in life is inevitable, but you don’t have to face it alone. Whatever stage of life you find yourself in, I offer a supportive space to slow down and make sense of what you’re going through. I work with adults navigating anxiety, low mood, relationship challenges, sexuality, identity exploration, and life transitions. I bring a neurodivergent-affirming lens that values difference and honours your unique way of experiencing the world.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative and relational. My aim is to provide you with a new emotional and relational experience that supports meaningful change, not just insight. I strive to create a space that is warm, accepting, and honest, where the relationship we build together serves as the foundation for our work. I draw primarily from Emotion-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, tailoring our work to your specific needs and goals.

I have received extensive training across multiple clinical settings, including Toronto Metropolitan University’s Counselling Centre. In addition to my therapy work, I have experience conducting psychoeducational and neurodevelopmental assessments, including assessments for ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities in children and adolescents. At Transforming Emotions, my work is supervised by Dr. Sarah Thompson, C.Psych.
