Registered Social Worker OCSWSSW #850935

Sometimes life feels like a lot. You might be carrying stress or self-doubt, trying to find your place in the world, or navigating a diagnosis that’s shifted your sense of who you are. Maybe you’re burned out, overwhelmed, or feeling like you’re supposed to be managing—but it’s just not working. You might be exploring your identity, struggling with executive dysfunction, or trying to make sense of a world that doesn’t seem built for the way your brain works. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I work from a neurodivergent-affirming, intersectional lens and tailor therapy to your pace, learning style, and goals. My approach draws on CBT, DBT, and ACT, but it’s grounded most of all in curiosity and care. I bring lived experience into the room too—as someone who’s neurodivergent myself, and who understands how deeply the systems we live in can shape the way we feel. Whether you’re navigating a new diagnosis, recovering from a brain injury, adjusting to a major life change, or just trying to make sense of yourself, I offer a space where your experience will be understood, not pathologized.

In my work, I offer a space for honesty, insight, laughter, and relief — a place where you don’t have to explain the basics or mask what you’re really feeling. I’m not here to give you all the answers, but to sit beside you and help you ask the right questions. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on beneath the surface and find ways forward that feel right for you.

I hold a Master of Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University and bring 14 years of experience supporting teens, young adults, and adults through a wide range of challenges. I draw from both professional training and lived experience, especially when working with clients navigating new diagnoses, brain injuries, or other life-altering transitions. I’m committed to offering an open, affirming space for LGBTQ+ clients and for anyone who feels stuck, out of place, or misunderstood. Therapy with me is equal parts depth and down-to-earth. We’ll get curious together about what’s hurting and why—and we’ll also look for small, meaningful shifts that help you move through the world with more clarity and self-trust. It won’t always be easy, but it also doesn’t have to be heavy every moment. There’s space here for softness, for humour, and for celebrating progress along the way.

Outside of therapy, I’m a lifelong ringette player (since age four!) and still play competitively. I love rock climbing, skiing, being near water, and relaxing with video games and good friends.

If you’re ready to feel more connected to yourself and supported in your growth, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.

Individual & Couples Therapy, and ADHD & Autism Support Services

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) CRPO #15515

Hi, I’m Elizabeth. I know that life can be unpredictable, messy, and sometimes just plain exhausting, especially when you’re always the one showing up for others. Whether you’re navigating big life changes, feeling the weight of caregiving, or trying to carve out space for yourself in a world that doesn’t always make it easy, I’m here to help you find your way through it.

For the past 14 years, I’ve worked in social services, supporting neurodivergent individuals and their families, a passion rooted in my own experience as the sibling and primary caregiver of a person with autism. This role shaped my dedication to helping others, especially those experiencing burnout, whether as caregivers, professionals, or those simply carrying too much. Alongside this work, I’ve developed a deep passion for couples therapy, helping partners navigate challenges, strengthen communication, and rebuild connection. With specialized training in relational dynamics, I strive to create a supportive space where couples can grow together.

I hold a Masters in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, a Bachelors in Disability Studies from Toronto Metropolitan University, and a Developmental Services Worker diploma from Centennial College. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I provide a safe and affirming space, especially for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent clients. My goal is to help you explore your potential, understand what’s holding you back, and build a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

Therapy with me is a collaborative journey, not something done to you, but with you. I take an empathetic, hopeful, and deeply individualized approach, because no two people are the same. Using an integrative framework, I draw from CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy), Gottman Method for couples, polyvagal theory, and humanistic therapy, adapting each session to meet you where you are.

My lived experiences also influence my work. I understand firsthand what it’s like to struggle with body image, disordered eating, and bariatric surgery. I offer compassionate, non-judgmental support to those navigating similar journeys, along with those facing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, major life transitions, boundaries, and self-advocacy. I take an anti-oppressive, client-led approach, meaning therapy moves at your pace. I’ll never push you to talk about things you’re not ready for. Instead, I support you in setting your own goals and working toward meaningful change.

Outside of therapy, you’ll find me enjoying time with my partner and my two dogs, Audrey Hepburn (a German Shepard Mix) and Ethel Barrymore (a Great Pyrenees). I’m a huge foodie and love discovering locally sourced, farm-to-table restaurants, but I also enjoy some good pub food. I’m passionate about music (especially live shows) and reading.

If you’re looking for a therapist who truly gets what it means to navigate life’s messiness, I’d love to connect and see if we’re the right fit. Therapy doesn’t have to be a solo journey, and I’m here to walk alongside you.

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) CRPO #17636

Hi, I’m Anthony! I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). Life can be hard, but hard doesn’t have to mean bad, and it never means hopeless. I believe that even in our most difficult moments, we can find meaning, strength, and purpose. Struggles are a part of being human, and while there’s no shortcut to making them disappear, we also don’t have to face them alone. My goal is to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s challenges, offering support and a space where you can make sense of what you’re going through and move toward healing.

I’ve always known I wanted to work in people services, but for a long time, I wasn’t sure what that would look like. It wasn’t until I experienced a series of strokes that I truly understood how vital meaning and purpose are in human life. I made a promise to myself that if I ever regained the ability to help others, I would dedicate myself to doing so. That experience shaped my approach to therapy, reinforcing my belief in our capacity for resilience and transformation.

I earned my BA in philosophy at the University of Waterloo and my Master’s degree through Martin Luther University College at Wilfrid Laurier University. Over the years, I’ve worked with individuals facing food insecurity, homelessness, addiction, grief, and relationship breakdowns, people working hard to piece their lives back together and move forward in a way that feels meaningful. I take an existential approach to therapy, combining philosophy and psychotherapy through Logotherapy, which means I focus on the search for purpose that lies at the heart of so many of our struggles. I also integrate elements of CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Person-Centered, and Psychodynamic therapy to create a space tailored to each client’s needs. Spirituality plays an important role in my practice, and I honour the ways in which each person’s search for meaning connects to their own beliefs and experiences.

I provide a safe and affirming space for LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent clients and support individuals working through a wide range of challenges, including identity struggles, grief, loss, addiction recovery, anxiety, and depression. My own experiences with medical trauma and recovery allow me to connect deeply with those who are grappling with illness, identity shifts, and the emotional toll of healing. I also help men navigate outdated societal expectations around masculinity, creating space for them to explore emotions, especially anger, in ways that foster connection rather than isolation.

Outside of therapy, I’ve been married to an incredible woman for over 20 years, and I’m a proud father to two (almost) grown sons. I’m a lifelong learner, constantly torn between diving into a new book, revisiting an old favourite, or finally finishing the ones I set aside. I have a deep appreciation for language, music, and the many ways we express meaning beyond words.

If you’re feeling stuck, uncertain, or weighed down by life’s challenges, I’m here to help you explore a way forward, one that feels authentic, intentional, and aligned with who you are.

Individual Counselling & Art Therapy

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) CRPO #18209

You might be navigating a major life transition, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or stuck in depression. Maybe you’re grieving a loss, feeling burnt out, or struggling to reconnect with yourself. You could be questioning your identity, battling low self-esteem, or finding it hard to feel motivated. Perhaps you’re adjusting to parenthood, preparing for retirement, or wrestling with relationship challenges. It may be that traditional talk therapy hasn’t quite resonated with you, or you’re simply looking for a different, more creative way to process your emotions and experiences. Whatever you’re carrying, you don’t have to do it alone, and you don’t need the right words to begin.

Hi, I’m Kelsey. I’m an Art Therapist and Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and I help teens (13+) and adults explore their thoughts, emotions, and inner world through a blend of talk therapy and creative expression. I believe in the power of creativity to access and express parts of ourselves that words alone can’t always reach. Therapy with me is collaborative and client-centered, grounded in compassion, curiosity, and respect for your unique story.

You don’t need to be “artistic” or even consider yourself creative to benefit from art therapy. It’s not about making something aesthetic, it’s about expression, reflection, and healing. Whether we’re using drawing, metaphor, painting, or simply talking, I’ll meet you where you are. I often incorporate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and the Expressive Therapies Continuum (ETC) to help process emotions at a pace that feels right for you. Some days therapy may look like a quiet conversation; on others, it might involve using simple materials you already have at home to explore something deeper.

My path to this work is deeply personal. I discovered art therapy in high school and was drawn to the connection between creativity, psychology, and how we process emotions. During my own journey, I found that art helped me access and express feelings I didn’t have the words for, and that experience shaped my belief in making therapy more accessible, especially for those who haven’t felt supported by traditional methods.

I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts from McMaster University and completed my Art Therapy training at the Canadian International Institute of Art Therapy. My practice is feminist and LGBTQ+ affirmative, with a strong understanding of how social systems and identity shape our mental health. I’m especially passionate about supporting people through transitions, identity exploration, and times when life feels uncertain or overwhelming.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time in nature, creating art, trying new recipes, and hanging out with my rescue pup, Lexi. I also love caring for my plants and diving into creative projects that bring me joy and grounding.

If you’re curious about using creativity to explore your story and reconnect with yourself, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.

Registered Psychotherapist CRPO #006190

Sometimes life knocks the wind out of you. Maybe you’re holding it together on the outside, but underneath, you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, or quietly unraveling. You might be carrying the weight of grief, navigating a big life transition, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Maybe you’re questioning your identity, your relationships, or your purpose. Maybe you’re tired of surviving and wondering if thriving is even possible. Whatever you’re carrying, I want you to know—there’s space for all of it here.

I’m Janeen. I became a therapist not because I always knew this was my path, but because life carved the way. After facing my own deep pain, I eventually reached out for help—and that moment changed everything. In the presence of someone who truly saw me, I began to feel what healing could look like. That experience showed me the transformative power of being witnessed with compassion. It’s what I now offer to my clients: a space where you don’t have to have it all figured out, where your truth is honoured, and where hope is quietly nurtured—even if it feels far away right now.

With over 20 years of experience in mental health and medical settings, I bring a grounded, collaborative approach to therapy. I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO #006190) with a Master of Arts in Spiritual Care & Psychotherapy from Wilfrid Laurier University. I support teens and adults through a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship and family dynamics, identity and sexuality, spirituality and religious trauma, parenting support, leadership development, and more.

As someone who is part of the LGBTQ+ community and who understands the impact of invisible struggles, I’m committed to creating a space that feels safe, affirming, and non-judgmental. I also advocate for neurodivergent clients and collaborate on ADHD medication optimization to help bridge gaps in care.

In our work together, I’ll bring my full presence—honest, attuned, and unwavering. I care deeply about the people I work with, and I don’t take lightly the trust it takes to show up and let yourself be seen. Therapy with me is relational at its core: I’ll walk beside you through the messy parts, the painful parts, and the parts where the light starts to return. I’ll support you, challenge you, and hold space for the whole of who you are as we uncover what’s been weighing you down and reconnect you with your own strength, clarity, and self-trust.

Outside the therapy room, I’m usually soaking in nature, cooking with my teenage son, chasing warmth wherever I can find it, or snuggling with my oversized, affectionate dog, Jasmine. I value real connection, good conversation, and slowing down enough to savour life’s small, meaningful moments.

If you’re ready to feel a little more like yourself again—or maybe discover parts of you that have long been buried—I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
