Summary

I'm currently offering virtual sessions only. 

I offer sessions in English and Portuguese. 

Call 647-722-5904 or email me at amarques.psychotherapy@gmail.com for a free 15 minute consultation.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety and many other mental health symptoms. 
During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
