Are my personal and emotional struggles, anxiety, and depression just “all in the mind” or is there a biological basis to it? Most psychotherapy theories only focus on the “mind” and often fail to address the biological causes and treatment of mental illness. As a psychopharmacologist, Dr Mervin is uniquely equipped to counsel people with mental disorders concerning all their antidepressant and medication-related issues. His integrative approach recognizes the importance of biological (medical & pharmacological), psychological (emotions, cognition's and behavior), social (family and community), and spiritual (faith and religion) factors.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

I embody a person-centered approach in which I provide my clients with a safe, nonjudgmental, and confidential space to explore and resolve their struggles. My work is based on a foundation of collaboration and trust as I believe that each client is the expert of themselves and my role is to assist, teach, and empower you to create and implement solutions and that these skills will persist long after the termination of therapy.

My approach to any modality of therapy, whether individual, couple, or family, is to be empathetic, understanding, non-judgmental, and have unconditional acceptance. In this safe environment, clients will be encouraged to speak freely about their emotions, desires, and fears. Through this therapeutic alliance, clients will learn to become more self-aware of their feelings and experiences, understand the influence of their past on present behaviour, change unhealthy patterns of behaviour, and take charge of their lives.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy is the treatment of mental health problems through a collaborative relationship between an individual and their psychologist.

Therapy using a variety of methods can help you experience relief from distressing symptoms and resolve, or learn to deal with, problems of life. In an accepting relationship I facilitate healing by listening to your unique story and by sensitively helping you work through deeply personal, and often highly uncomfortable, topics. Even though the tendency is to resist anything that is painful, when you feel what you have been trying to avoid and discover insight about what has been causing your personal and/or relationship difficulties, you are better able to make the changes you want.

Using a personalized approach tailored to you, I help you discover what you need to flourish.

Contrary to popular psychology, believing that just the right psychological theory, intervention and technique will act like a health-care “magic pill” that can make one’s worries suddenly disappear is mistaken. Most of the therapeutic change that happens during psychotherapy is due to the therapeutic alliance: rapport, relationship and resources. Rapport is about the connection the client and therapist feel for each other. Relationship is about the constructive cognitive/emotional exchanges and trust that a client and therapist build up over time. Resources are about how the therapist helps the client activate their existing emotions, thoughts and behaviours in service to healthy change.

Psychotherapy sounds complicated. It does not need to be. It occurs when two people talk it can be effective or ineffective.

It is my desire to create a space where this relationship can grow and be beneficial to my clients.

My approach to Interpersonal Psychotherapy (ITP) is a safe, respectful, natural, and dynamic interactive process. I view the client-therapist experience as an interpersonal relationship that is founded on the principles of mutual respect and genuine caring. The therapeutic focus is largely on current relationships and how those relationships are perceived in a client’s life. Additionally, I encourage the exploration of conscious and unconscious emotional issues. Most persons possess a wealth of undeveloped strengths, assets, and capacities. Most of us use only a small percentage of our physical, mental, spiritual, and relational potentialities. By accessing a range of therapeutic techniques s....
