Registered Social Worker
“I believe in therapy that comes from a place of humanity, in knowing we are all just walking each other home. I seek to be an empathetic companion along your journey as we create an atmosphere where you feel seen, heard, accepted, and believed, as I personally know the healing power of being accepted for your authentically flawed self.“

Registered Social Worker
“As a therapist, I will work with you to create a safe space to discuss your experiences. I aim to break down the stigma associated with therapy in many cultural communities by using person-centered language, simplifying how trauma impacts the body and mind, and making sure that you are leading your therapeutic journey.”
Registered Provisional Psychologist
“Hi! I’m a Registered Provisional Psychologist and my goal is to work together and build a foundational understanding between us, providing a safe place to share what is going on in your life. I am committed to creating an environment that is non-judgemental, attentive, and empathetic. Humour and compassion are key in the therapeutic process, and I try to utilize both in equal measure.”
Registered Provisional Psychologist
“Hi! I’m a Registered Provisional Psychologist and I use mainly a cognitive-behavioural approach, meaning that I explore how beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and reactions impact your perspective and daily life. I can tell you as someone with a history of perfectionism and control issues that it’s okay to seek help and support to learn how to adopt a different perspective and accept all parts of yourself.”
Registered Social Worker
“Hi! I’m Lara, and I have worked for over 20 years in the mental health field with at-risk children, adolescents, young adults, and their families in schools, private practice and not-for-profit organizations. These experiences have furthered my commitment to anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, culturally sensitive practice. I don’t ask myself what is wrong with a person; instead, I ask myself what happened to this person.”
Registered Social Worker
“I use cultural humility, reflexivity, and critical approaches in my day to day practice with folx on an individual, group, and community level. As a BIPOC (South Asian-Canadian) therapist who identifies in intersectionalities and has experience in navigating a bicultural identity, I recognize the value of a space that allows someone to be seen and heard. I regularly incorporate a variety of therapeutic modalities into my work.”
Registered Psychologist (Not Accepting New Clients)
“In therapy, I operate from a trauma-informed and person-centered approach. I aim to listen non-judgmentally and with care. Most importantly, I believe that people are resilient. I strive to offer culturally sensitive treatment, where I acknowledge and encourage people to explore the way their thoughts, feelings, and surroundings impact the choices they make and actions they take.”
Registered Provisional Psychologist
“Hi! I’m a Registered Provisional Psychologist and I work from an eclectic approach drawing mainly from Compassion-Focused Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I work from a multicultural, and intersectional feminist lens which informs my understanding of how systemic oppression and discrimination affects quality of life and well-being.”
