Dr. Pongracic has worked with men from all walks of life to cope with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship problems, and workplace injuries. Dr. Syb Pongracic specializes in assessing mental illness to provide effective and evidence-based psychotherapy using a variety of interventions from different schools of psychotherapy (e.g., Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, applications of polyvagal theory, Internal Family Systems, Eye movement desensitization reprocessing therapy; EMDR).

My approach to therapy is grounded in deep presence, compassion, and a belief in your innate capacity for growth.
I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your emotions, challenges, and strengths without fear of judgment. My work is collaborative and client-centered, integrating mindfulness, internal family systems (IFS), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and parts work.
I specialize in supporting men struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and compulsive behaviors, including sex and pornography addiction. With 17 years of meditation experience, I help clients develop self-awareness, self-regulation, and lasting change.

I am deeply committed to creating a healing space where individuals can explore and navigate life’s challenges. My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and culturally-sensitive framework, recognizing the impact of diverse identities on mental health. Working collaboratively with both adults and teens, I offer support for a range of issues, from anxiety and depression, to Tourette’s and OCD, to the aftermath of trauma.
I believe that therapy is a space in which we work collaboratively to create a reparative relationship that nurtures and fosters insight, growth, safety, and resilience — a space in which one’s own innate internal reservoir of resources can be given the space and time to guide the way towards healing.

You’ve been struggling for far too long. Feeling down, irritable, stressed, drained of physical, emotional and creative energy or just plain stuck seems to be your new normal and you’re tired of it. Something isn’t right and hasn’t been right for a while and you don’t want to burden your loved ones any more with your problems. Your relationships and work life are suffering, and you just want everything to be OK. Together we’ll compassionately explore what’s going on through an intuitive, fluid blend of Talk Therapy, Compassionate Inquiry and the Expressive Arts to get your life back on track.

I enjoy working with men who are interested in their own personal growth and wellbeing.
I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where men can explore and gain further insight into their thoughts, feelings, sensations, and behaviours. My clients may be struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety, anger and irritability, low self esteem, or are having difficulties with assertiveness. They may also be struggling with a lack of clarity or sense of meaning and purpose in their lives, or are adjusting due to major life changes.
I try to help men break free from unhelpful patterns and sterotypes by discussing coping strategies and connecting them with their values, creativity, sense of humour, and what is most meaningful to them.
