About Mark

mark-weitz-counselling-crop-2.jpg

Welcome to Mind Path Therapy. My name is Mark Weitz and I’m a therapist, serving north Toronto and Vaughan areas, specializing in individual psychotherapy, life transitions counselling and caregiver counselling for adults and seniors. As a registered social worker (RSW) and practicing clinician for more than 20 years, I offer compassionate and client-focused therapy that can provide new insight into your life and equip you with the skills to overcome life’s obstacles. 

My practice is rooted in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), a treatment approach focused on the way we think, feel and behave.  I help clients understand and manage their challenges, including any negative behaviour patterns, low or depressed moods, feelings of anxiety or stress, communication difficulties, relationship barriers or feelings of loss and grief. I also work closely with caregivers who are struggling to find balance with this delicate yet often demanding role.

I received my Master of Social Work from the University of Toronto in 2001 and am a member in good standing of the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW) as well as the Ontario Association of Social Workers (OASW). I have two decades of combined experience providing individual support and counselling for adults, seniors, and caregivers as well as psychotherapy and community case management.

I know it’s not easy to ask for help. I’d be privileged to work with you and help create your path towards a more resilient and purposeful life.
