Mollie Pfendt, Registered Psychotherapist

(She/her pronouns)

Currently welcoming new clients for virtual sessions.

I’m a Registered Psychotherapist who works with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected from themselves, or caught in patterns that no longer serve them. You may understand why you feel the way you do, but still find yourself repeating the same patterns in your relationships, work, or daily life. You may be navigating a significant transition, questioning who you are or what you want, or simply feeling that something needs to change.

I offer a space to slow down and make sense of what’s happening under the surface. Together, we can explore your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and the wisdom of your body, while getting curious about how your past experiences may be shaping your present.

The foundation of my practice is Gestalt therapy. I believe meaningful change begins with awareness, rather than rushing toward solutions or forcing yourself to be different. By bringing greater awareness to how you experience yourself and the world around you, new possibilities have the space and support they need to organically emerge.

My approach is embodied, relational, trauma-informed, and non-pathologizing. My training in somatic attachment therapy and supporting embodiment practices further inform my understanding that our experiences are held not only in our thoughts, but also in our bodies and relationships. Our work may include conversation, attention to the present moment, and gentle experimentation with different ways of relating to yourself and others. I will bring curiosity, warmth, and compassion to our work together and aim to create a space where you can feel deeply seen and supported while remaining the expert in your own experience.

I work with adults aged 18 and over who are navigating a range of experiences including:

• feeling stuck or caught in old patterns
• life transitions and periods of change

• feelings of disconnection

• stress, overwhelm, and burnout

• relationship challenges
• illness and changes in health
• grief and loss

• anxiety and panic
• depression

• trauma and attachment wounds

• self-esteem and identity

Logistics and Beginning

I work with individual adults across Ontario through virtual therapy.

I anticipate offering in-person sessions at the Healing Collective in the coming months, depending on interest.

Sessions are $155 per 50 minutes.

Finding the right therapist fit is an important part of the process of beginning therapy.

I offer a no-pressure, complimentary 20-minute phone consult, where we can talk about what’s bringing you to therapy and explore whether working together feels like a good fit.

If my approach resonates with you and you’d like to learn more, I’d love to hear from you! You can reach me at mpfendt@gestaltmail.ca or via my website, molliepfendt.ca.
