Benjamin Nunes
Ben is passionate about helping teens navigate the pressures of growing up in a world that moves faster than any generation before them. He has a particular interest and skill set in supporting teens managinganxiety, self-esteem, and identity concerns, along with the modern challenges that come with social media and internet use, an area he has come to know well both personally and professionally.
Ben's approach is warm, curious, and relational. He believes teens do their best work in therapy when they feel genuinely heard rather than managed, and he works to build that kind of trust early. His clinical lens draws on Emotion-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and attachment-based approaches, alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy when a teen needs something more concrete to work with.
Outside of the therapy room, Ben plays in a band, enjoys martial arts, and spends a lot of his downtime with his partner, friends and family.
Ben sees individual children, teens, adults & parents as well as families and couples.
Ben practises at our Runnymede & Bloor location and Danforth & Chester location.
