Dr. Ishan SharmaMD, CCFP, Spec. (Hons.) BScHi 👋
I’m Dr. Ishan Sharma and I am a family physician with a focused practice in addiction medicine and psychotherapy. I favour a transdiagnostic approach with my patients, meaning that I work to understand, uncover, and treat symptoms concurrently, that can be present across multiple diagnoses. I utilize an eclectic approach to psychotherapy, blending elements of Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Somatic Psychotherapy, Attachment Oriented Therapy, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, Polyvagal Theory, and Relational Psychotherapy, among other modalities.
I strongly believe that each person possesses their own innate wisdom that orients them in their healing journey and I will work with you to help uncover this.
It is my goal to foster an effective therapeutic alliance with each patient, emphasizing a felt-sense of safety, trust, and sincerity in our work together.
