What Is Compassion Counselling—and Could It Be What You’ve Been Looking For?

In a world that often feels rushed and overwhelming, compassion can be one of the most powerful tools for healing. At Compassion Psychotherapy, I offer what I call compassion counselling—a blend of therapeutic approaches grounded in warmth, patience, and presence.

My name is Christyn Greczkowski, and I'm a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I offer virtual therapy for teens and adults, focusing on helping clients feel grounded, heard, and supported.

What Is Compassion Counselling?

Compassion counselling is more than just being kind—it's a therapeutic approach that

brings together evidence-based tools and a deep, human understanding of your lived experience. It involves:

• Listening without judgment

• Helping you notice and soften harsh self-talk

• Supporting you in learning new ways to cope, without shame

• Creating a space where healing doesn’t feel forced or rushed

I use a mix of Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and self-compassion practices to support clients through anxiety, depression, life transitions, and low self-worth.

Why Compassion Makes Therapy More Effective

Many of my clients come to me and express that they want a space free of judgment, where they can feel safe, seen, and heard. Everyone deserves a space where they feel like their feelings and thoughts (even the heavy ones) are held.

Whether you're navigating:

• Panic attacks or chronic anxiety

• People-pleasing and burnout

• Big emotions you’ve been taught to hide

• Feeling like you’re “never enough”

…compassionate therapy helps you respond to yourself with gentleness and curiosity—not criticism.

A Personal Approach, Rooted in Real-Life Tools

I bring in coaching-style strategies when they’re helpful, and I adjust our sessions to where you are that day. Some days, we process emotions. Other days, we build skills. All of it happens in a safe, encouraging space.

Meet Me Online, Wherever You Are in Ontario

All sessions are held virtually, so whether you're in Toronto, Ottawa, Mississauga, Hawkesbury, or anywhere in Ontario, you can access care that’s consistent and easy to schedule.

As someone who values both clinical skill and genuine connection, I believe compassion should be at the heart of every therapeutic relationship.
