Very insightful, extremely knowledgeable, exceedingly comforting to talk to. Especially for me during the most traumatic time in my journey. I am very grateful for his energy and his words that are healing me through a work related trauma. He really hears what I say. Makes me feel validated and helps me understand why my brain also needs to recover. And what it is doing. This is my first experience with anything outside my GP. I look forward to all of our sessions.

Dr. Weatherby is a kind and compassionate Doctor. In the short time I was seeing him virtually he assisted me with facing my anxiety, I still struggle everyday with depression anxiety and physical impairment from my workplace injury and MVA, but I still use the information he gave me to get the motivation to continue. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is seeking to find a Doctor that is approachable, and likable. I was able to open up and speak with him with no judgment or fear.

I found that Dr Weatherby is a pleasure to speak to he listens attentively and occasionally makes me laugh while speaking ever so gently as he is extremely knowledgeable, empathetic a straight shooter and easy to speak to. I appreciate everything he's done and continues to do for me and while my recovery encompasses my being and I feel I am in great care and I also know with his help I will eventually be okay. Thank you so much doc!!

6 months ago I was involved in a serious workplace accident which has resulted in chronic pain, mobility issues, depression, anxiety, severe sleep disturbance and PTSD. WSIB recommended that I find a psychologist to help me work through these issues. I researched for several days and Dr Jeffrey Weatherby continued to pop up in my search. I read countless glowing and positive reviews given by other patients who had been through similar circumstances - (accidents or traumatic experiences in the workplace) and decided to book an appointment with him. Ive seen him weekly for 5 months now, and he

Dr. Weatherby is amazing, warm and brilliant. Always leave the sessions feeling so much better than before. He really cares about his patients and make the sessions comfortable. I have been his patient for 4 years and I feel like he's changed my life. He saved my marriage and I will be eternally thankful to him. His CBT (cognitive behavior therapy) method of treatment is very effective. Highly recommended.

I was apprehensive about therapy at first, but Im very glad I found Dr. Weatherby. He is a kind and compassionate professional who has helped me overcome many personal struggles. Its obvious he genuinely cares for his patients and his approach will empower you to help yourself and improve whatever it is you want to work on. In person or at a distance over a video call, he always provides a safe and inviting space. If youre unsure like I was or are looking for help, I would highly recommend you consider talking to Dr. Weatherby so you can see what a wonderful professional he is for yourself
