About William

Hello, my name is William (Reid) Burton. I hold a Master of Social Work degree and am a Registered Social Worker with the OCSWSSW (Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers). I am also a member of the OASW (Ontario Association of Social Workers) and the CASW (Canadian Association of Social Workers). Prior to becoming a Registered Social Worker, I worked in the social service field as a Developmental Service Worker and as a Youth Worker in the correctional system. I have been working professionally in clinical social work since 2021 as an Outpatient Social Worker in the health care field. Who do I work with & What can I help with? I work with teens and adults wishing to access therapy for a wide variety of reasons including anxiety and depression, grief, situational crises, and relationship challenges. I specialize in working with men dealing with mental health concerns requiring non-stigmatizing supports and a comfortable space to work through difficult emotions. My Therapeutic Approach I strive to provide my clients with an open, warm, collaborative, and supportive therapeutic environment and seek to tailor individualized care to meet each person’s needs. I have a calm disposition and connect with my clients through appropriate humor and a compassionate stance. I will provide both guidance and support in your therapeutic journey, “having your back”, while you disclose your personal story and as we work through the things that have brought you to therapy. My Training I have had formal education in CBT (Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical-Behavioral Therapy), and Mindfulness. My practice is eclectic in nature and mixes talk therapy with the targeted use of these modalities to help meet your therapy goals. What Else you Should Know When you are ready to begin, I look forward to using my professional skills to accompany and support you on your therapy journey.
