My passion is working with clients seeking happier and more fulfilling lives overcome their daily stress caused by feelings of anxiety and depression. These stressful feelings can be brought on by issues related to traumatic life events, family and parenting, intimate and social relationships, work and money, rumination, lack of adaptive coping and, self blame.

My approach combines cognitive, humanistic, psychodynamic counseling and psychotherapy with coaching; this allows me to provide you with multiple levels of support including uncovering the sources of stress, gaining insight into your behavior, determining goals and creating action plans to sustain your positive changes. In addition, I teach mental skills to help improve your self-esteem, decision-making, motivation, attention and concentration.
One last thing, It takes courage to seek help towards a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Ted is very good at listening , responds in a very timely manor .. very helpful , great at helping you make decisions to help you without telling you what to do .. would definitely recommend to a friend in need
Working with Ted has been a pleasure. He listens and provides suggestions.
Ted is a great responded that seems to know how to tackle several complicated issues regarding relationships. He always listens to the problems and is really interested in getting to the bottom of why I feel the way I do. Honestly talking to him helps get a lot of negative energy out of my system and is often therapeutic.
Ted is a great listener and offers challenging yet great advice.
Ted helped me work through a lot of different issues (anxiety, relationship, etc. ) that I had been struggling with for a very long time. He really took the time to listen which helped him pinpoint the underlying problems I was dealing with, and solved them. He is very good at saying the right things to help you understand and work through the feelings that are causing strain. I would highly recommend Ted.
I have been working with Ted for a few weeks now. I am brand new to counseling and Ted has made me feel so comfortable. He is very understanding and a great listener. I feel like after each session I gain a little more clarity that I'm seeking with my situation. I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about counseling in general. I feel like the whole experience depends on your counselor and Ted is absolutely great!! Highly recommend him!
Ted is a great counselor. He is patient, non judgmental and attentive. I have been working with him for a quite a bit of time and he had listened carefully to my problems and helped me identify the sources of my feelings. Also, he taught me how process my feelings and tackle the issues I encountered. Mr.Rostiac is a trustworthy counselor and highly recommended.
Ted is a wonderful counsellor. He responds quickly and offers very good advice. He is not critical, but offers constructive guidance to deal with what I am going through. He offers good ways to deal with painful feelings.
My first step to recovering my mental health was speaking to Ted he gave me the confidence and understanding to know my feelings are valid, I’m not alone and made me feel stronger than ever to be able to deal with things. Thank you Ted.
Ted is a wonderful counselor. We have been working together for quite some time and we have developed a really good relationship. I highly recommend him!
Ted is an example of what a person is gifted to do!!! Has given me direction to go forward with complex PTSD. It’s been a productive year and looking to more growth.
Ted is attentive, tracks growth and developments well and keeps the conversation going in a comfortable and courteous manner. I feel like I'm talking to a friend with a keen and refined sense of where my needs are. The natural flow of the conversations enables me to open up and be honest with him while feeling like my needs are being met perfectly.
Ted is caring and attentive! He ask the right questions, responds, and is considerate. I definitely recommend him. Ted has a natural ability to help you think differently and to think about things with honesty.
Ted has been a great resource helping me with my anxiety. He has taught me methods on how to handle anxious situations, and he is also agreat listener and helps me identify the root of the problems in order to tackle my anxiety as best as possible.
He listens!
He really seems to get me and has gotten me through some pretty intense situations. I am happy to have him on my side.
Ted Rostiac is an extremely helpful counselor. He is very intuitive with knowing when to give advice and went to just listen. He is very respectful of me and my predicament when working with him I do not feel any sense of judgement Ted has been extremely helpful and giving me the direction to cut through my own BS. I highly recommend Mr Rostiac.
Ted is awesome. I worked with him for a while last year and he was able to help me so much just by listening to what I needed.
Ted is the man. He is patient, smart and kind. Everything that you’d want in a counselor and a friend. I strongly recommend him.
Ed is very good, very helpful, and has very good words to help me cope. I think he's very good at what he does.
Ted's support and presence has been invaluable to me at a challenging crossroads in my life. When I felt nobody else was there for me, his reply would come through to me and give me strength to move through the issues I needed to move through.
Ted is a wonderful listener and counselor. He has helped me see my issues objectively and has accompanied me in actively resolving them. My only regret after working with him is not having found him sooner!
Ted has been extremely professional, patient, and supportive. I highly recommend his services.
I am grateful to Ted Rostiac for his kindness and his efforts in helping me reach my goals. I appreciate how he clearly understood the large amount of information I gave, and how he kept track of the important threads throughout. I will seek his help again if I need it.
He's highly professional and really knows how to get to the root of the problem and takes it one step further by asking the right questions.
I was not even sure if I was ready to seek help again, but figured I would try just so I could say I had exhausted my options. Enter Ted. I was weary of a male therapist but his immediate responsiveness and down to earth way of reframing the problems that are dogging me earned my trust. I have hope that I'll recover from binge eating; this never felt like a possibility to me before.
He is helping through a lot of issues. He is very supportive. I highly recommend him.
I've had just two sessions with Ted so far. He is definitely a good listener and also has been very quick to drill down to the issues I'm dealing with. I was focusing on "surface stuff." He's getting me to dig beneath the surface.
Edward is great and was easy to talk to via video. I recommend him.
Ted is very helpful, patient, professional.
He's a great listener and offers smart advice.
