Humanistic Therapists in L7L

Many of us have forgotten how to let our emotions move through our bodies like pure energy forms - letting anger churn, hope to blossom, grief to contract, or sit with unmet longing. My approach is to simply be with what's true for you, moment to moment. I practice this through supportive listening and staying with whatever comes up in the present. I create a safe space to help unravel beliefs & emotions, and offer personalized, therapeutic techniques to support individuals to gain awareness and clarity about themselves, their patterns and the decisions they make in their life.

With over twenty years of experience working in the field, I know that we are all hardwired for healing and connection, even when feeling confused and overwhelmed by life challenges. My practice style is to team up with my clients to facilitate deep self-knowledge, understanding and empowerment to create change and growth in a warm and accepting environment. I have experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, regulating difficult emotions and self-esteem. I provide service to individuals (13 yrs.+), couples and families.

You might be looking to increase psychological fitness, or make sense of past wounds, or make a change in your present way of being in the world – I offer a safe, non judgmental and supportive space to facilitate your healing. My work is to help you experience who you truly are, harness your personal strength and overcome your challenges. I work with a firm belief in the resilience of the human spirit and this belief is supported by a solid educational base, a multi-cultural variety of life experience, and a range of counselling skills and tools that makes it possible for me to meet your individual needs.

When life gets messy, we all sometimes need a little help along the way. I walk with you, listen, help you get in touch with your inner wisdom, and find the next steps on your path to your best “you.” If you struggle with relationships, grief and loss, major life change, new diagnosis or palliative illness, spiritual issues, or feeling stuck, you may want to choose me as your therapist. I especially understand the needs of those providing care to others--caregivers, first responders, faith leaders, and health professionals.

I enjoy working with pre-teens, teenagers and adults that have yet to find a fix to their life challenges. I work with a large number semi & professional athletes as well as first responders.

Hi, I'm Roksana and I'd love to help you. Sometimes we need someone to listen without bias or judgement, and other times we need guidance and tools to help. I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I believe in working together to develop skills and strategies to lead to positive change, to build resilience and to achieve your personal goals.

After dedicating the past two decades to the field of education, I set about on a transformative journey towards becoming a registered psychotherapist. My professional journey in education evolved into a Special Education Resource Teacher, where my focus shifted towards removing barriers for my students and their families. My experience in the education sector has honed my empathic nature and nurtured my ability to view individuals without judgment.

Do you find yourself feeling stuck, whether in dissatisfying relationships, weighed down by past trauma, making significant life transitions, or experiencing persistent anxiety or depressed mood? Does it feel like no matter what you do, or how you try to change, it’s the same old story? Many people can’t help but feel frustrated, lost, and hopeless when faced with these kinds of struggles, and don’t know where to turn.

Is there something missing from your sex life? Is it all you thought it would be? Do you want more intimacy? More pleasure? Passion? Desire? We are not born knowing how to have great sex or develop healthy relationships. Nothing could be further from the truth! Sex and romantic relationships are both an art and a skillset developed through experience, and also through support and guidance. In my practice, I aim to help you to learn and understand how to create a sex life filled with pleasure and intimacy rather than shame, fear, or performance anxiety.

We have a team of passionate therapists here to help you. We will match you with the right therapist for you depending on your unique story and wants. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, transitions (childhood to young adult, career, parenthood, separation etc), dealing with addiction/recovery, diagnosis, or loss/grief... life keeps us guessing. We are here to listen, help you slow it all down, and figure out a plan together.

Separation & divorce is not something you considered when you and your partner were planning your lives together. Unfortunately, divorce is common and is an incredibly painful process which you can't typically prepare for. It can generate intense emotions such as anger, confusion, betrayal, loneliness, and hopelessness. Even if you know it's the right decision, you will likely be experiencing grief over what you had hoped your relationship would be. Co-parenting is another level to manage. This process can make you question who you are, and what your life will look like moving forward.
