Justin Doyle

Justin Doyle is a Registered Social Worker who dedicates his practice to supporting children (8+), teenagers, and young adults. With a specialized focus on empowering individuals with disabilities, Justin brings both clinical expertise and deep personal empathy to his clients.

Drawing on extensive experience across school systems, group homes, telemedicine, and treatment-based institutions, Justin has successfully supported dual-diagnosed youth aged 10 to 19 through complex challenges. His background includes delivering critical crisis intervention through Kids Help Phone, equipping him with the ability to provide calm, effective support during times of acute distress.

Justin’s therapeutic approach is fundamentally strength-based and person-centred, anchored in the core belief that the client is the driver in every single counselling session. While he acts as the GPS—providing the necessary guidance, therapeutic tools, and route options to help navigate the journey—the client always controls the wheel and determines the final destination. To facilitate this collaborative process, he utilizes evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy, and is highly adept at seamlessly switching therapeutic methodologies to best meet the specific, evolving needs of each individual.

As a passionate advocate for improving disability rights and policies through both research and personal experience, Justin possesses a keen awareness of the systemic barriers individuals with disabilities must overcome to achieve their goals.

His strong clinical foundation is supported by a Master of Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University, alongside a Bachelor of Social Work and an Honours Bachelor of Arts in History and Social Development Studies from the University of Waterloo. Additionally, he holds an advanced diploma in Child and Youth Work from Mohawk College. Driven by a consistent eagerness to stay at the forefront of emerging therapeutic trends, Justin actively engages in continuing education courses to ensure his clients receive the most effective, up-to-date care.
