Meet Andrew Cecon, MSW, RSW

Andrew is a warm, compassionate, and client-centered registered Social Worker/Psychotherapist who brings over a decade of experience in the mental health field.

Andrew holds a Master of Social Work (MSW) and offers support to individuals navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, stress, grief, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

Andrew’s approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and grounded in respect for each client’s lived experience. He has a particular interest in supporting postpartum fathers - an often-overlooked group in perinatal mental health. Andrew offers a supportive space for dads adjusting to parenthood, identity shifts, and changes in relationships, helping them feel more confident and connected through this unique life stage.

Andrew is also passionate about working with addiction, and he brings skill and care to his work with couples. He is trained in both the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), tailoring sessions to the needs of each couple with a focus on connection and communication.

His therapeutic work is rooted in evidence-based practices, including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, DBT, Polyvagal Theory, and somatic approaches. Clients appreciate Andrew’s calm presence, practical strategies, and ability to create a safe, non-judgmental environment.

Outside of his work, Andrew enjoys spending time with his family and is actively involved in theatre and acting.
