Credentials Verified by PM
My name is Sabrina Panaitescu-Rapan, and I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). My journey in the mental health field began as an intake counsellor, where I had the privilege of helping children, teens, and adults take the brave first step in seeking support. Today, I continue that mission, not just helping individuals start the process, but walking alongside them as a dedicated therapist throughout their healing journey.
I work with teens and adults who are navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship issues, and trauma. I believe that meaningful and lasting healing occurs within the context of a safe, supportive, and genuine therapeutic relationship. My approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and a deep respect for your lived experience. Clinically, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Trauma-Informed care (TC) while incorporating elements from a variety of evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based practices.
I currently offer virtual therapy sessions via phone or video, making it easier to access support from the comfort and privacy of your own space. I provide a variety of appointment times Monday through Friday, with both daytime and evening availability to help fit therapy into your schedule.
I am passionate about creating a therapeutic space where you feel seen, heard, and understood, a place where healing becomes possible and empowerment can begin. Whether you’re reaching out for the first time or returning to therapy after a break, I’m here to meet you exactly where you are, and to support you as you move forward with clarity and confidence.
