Dr. Rebecca Ginsburg, Psy.D., C.Psych.
Psychologist

Dr. Rebecca Ginsburg offers individual therapy services to adults, with particular interest in anxiety, trauma, gender diversity, and grief, including perinatal loss. She frequently works with healthcare professionals, teachers, and VAC clients, including adult family members of veterans. She is registered as a Blue Cross provider.

Rebecca strives to create strong relationships with each of her clients in order to provide a safe environment for change. She is trained in a variety of theoretical orientations, including Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), which informs much of her current practice. Rebecca completed a core training program in ISTDP from 2021-2024, and she continues to hone her skills via frequent training and supervision. Psychodynamic therapy is well-suited to clients seeking to change unhelpful patterns that negatively impact their relationships and emotional wellbeing; it is typically not suited to clients seeking a directive, skills-based approach. 

Rebecca earned her Psy.D. from Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN) in 2016 after completing her residency at the MUN Student Wellness and Counselling Centre. She began her career in St. John's, working in community mental health and addictions before moving to private practice. She has provided psychology services to adults dealing with a range of concerns, including anxiety disorders, mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, OCD, binge eating, and personality disorders. Rebecca has also been involved in teaching and training; she has taught in the psychology department at MUN and has supervised pre-doctoral residents and practicum students. 

The practice of psychology is regulated provincially. Rebecca is registered in Ontario and in Newfoundland and Labrador. As such, she is authorized to provide services to clients located in the following provinces: Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. There may be certain circumstances that authorize her to provide services into other provinces; this is determined on a case by case basis in adherence with each province's current practice guidelines.

Rebecca offers both in-person and virtual appointments. Virtual appointments are offered via secure video session. To inquire about an appointment please email her at drrebeccaginsburg@gmail.com
