About me
Anxiety, OCD, Trauma & Couples Therapist in Toronto | Kelly Greene, MSW, RSW
I’m Kelly Greene, a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist based in Toronto. I hold a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Toronto (2001) and a Bachelor of Social Work degree from McMaster University (1992). I specialize in anxiety disorders, obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma therapy, grief counselling, and couples therapy.
I have completed advanced certification and specialized training in trauma therapy, OCD treatment, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Relational Life Therapy (RLT). My practice is grounded in evidence-based treatment approaches for anxiety, OCD, trauma, and relationship distress.
As an OCD therapist, I provide structured, exposure-based treatment to help reduce compulsions and intrusive thoughts. As a trauma therapist, I integrate trauma-informed care and parts-based work through IFS to support healing from past experiences. In couples therapy, I draw on relational and emotionally focused frameworks to help partners rebuild emotional connection and communication.
My approach is collaborative and compassionate. I tailor therapy to your specific goals while using research-supported methods to support meaningful and lasting change.
I work with adults and couples from diverse cultural and identity backgrounds and strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where difficult thoughts, emotions, and experiences can be explored openly.
If you are looking for an OCD therapist in Toronto, a trauma therapist, or a couples therapist grounded in ACT, CBT, and IFS, I welcome the opportunity to support you.
Working Together
Guided by Your Values
I believe you are the expert on your own life and already have the inner resources to create change. My role is to help you uncover those strengths, gain clarity, and move forward with greater confidence and resilience.
In our work together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you. I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches — including CBT, ACT, IFS, mindfulness, and psychoanalytic perspectives — as well as somatic and emotion-focused techniques when helpful. Rather than following one method rigidly, I integrate these tools flexibly so that our work feels natural and responsive to your needs.
At the heart of my approach is the belief that therapy is a collaborative journey. Together, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you, supporting insight, resilience, and meaningful growth.
Beyond the Office
We all hope that our patients will finish with us and forget us, and that they will find living itself to be the therapy that makes sense
