You’re a giver, and you put in 1000% to care for everyone around you. On the surface, everyone seems to love you, and you seem to have it all. But underneath all that, you feel a sense of loneliness. This is a common experience for many clients I help. Stuck in a web of family and friends and a hurricane of obligations, you find yourself sacrificing your own needs for others. And the worst part is, sometimes, you don’t even know what you want for yourself! Then your Inner Critic sets in, and you beat yourself up for all the things you feel like you did wrong. And you wonder to yourself, "Will I ever be happy?"

I'll help untangle the messy feelings and thoughts that might be weighing you down, getting in the way, and holding you back from being your best you. Together we'll identify what you want and how to get you there. I know the wild ride of going through changes and transitions in life, from becoming a parent, getting divorced, and changing career paths. I understand the messiness of expectations, disappointments, joys, and hopes that come with making your way through your days, experiences, and relationships.

When overwhelming emotions limit the pursuit of our responsibilities or passions in life there are effective strategies that can help regulate and minimize the emotional storms as well as provide the resilience needed to thrive in your life despite those storms. Life can be very difficult, unlike physical pain that is usually hard to ignore therefore treatment is sought after, emotional pain is unfortunately often ignored hoping it goes away. Anger, stress, anxiety, low moods, loss and relationship upheavals are all issues that can be better worked through with professional support through those storms. My name is Tim Kahtava, I

Trauma can profoundly impact your sense of self and belonging. This is especially true when the trauma happened in relationship: abuse or neglect by a parent, spiritual abuse (often in community), or during a difficult transition to becoming a parent. I offer trauma therapy that can help you address the deep emotional learnings that come from relational trauma and affect you in the present day, that can leave you feeling disconnected or unsafe, stealing your joy. I work with curiosity, gentleness, and humour to uncover the capacity for healing that is already in you. I offer online therapy to adults across Ontario.

Maybe you're thinking your problems aren't serious enough for therapy. That other people have it worse. That you should handle this on your own. Maybe you're worried you won't be a "good" client, that you'll waste my time, or that I'll think you're overreacting. Here's what I know: if you're exhausted, anxious, not sleeping well, and barely keeping up—that matters. You matter. I work with people experiencing burnout, stress, anxiety, and sleep issues. Often they've spent their lives taking care of others and minimizing their own needs. People who feel guilty for struggling. If that sounds like you, you're exactly who I'm here for.

I help adults in their 20s-30s who want to feel happy again but are feeling stuck, lost, numb, or overwhelmed with life. My clients tell me that the pressure to choose the right degree, career, friends, or partner leads them to spiral into depression, anxiety, and other difficult feelings. They feel alone and misunderstood. They want to smile and feel like themself again, but don’t know how. They use ChatGPT to understand themself and need a professional therapist to direct their therapy progress while using AI to support the process.

I offer a warm, relational space where you can land — just as you are. Together, we’ll explore what’s present, what hurts, what longs to be seen. I’m here to support you in meeting your challenges with honesty, care, and curiosity. Healing isn’t always easy, but you don’t have to go through it alone. We’ll bring attention back to your body — to sensation, breath, feeling, and emotion — the places where truth lives. So often, we get caught in our heads and forget the wisdom that lives inside us. I’m here to help you remember. You deserve to feel alive, connected, and at home in yourself!

Hi, I'm Lukas. If you're here, you're likely considering finding a professional to talk to about issues you've been experiencing in your life. You might feel a bit reluctant or unsure what you're looking for or if this is even the route you want to take. I hear you, and can assure you this is how most people feel when they consider reaching out for assistance. But take a moment to let it sink in that getting this far is already a big first step - you've recognized your desire for change, your current patterns aren't serving you well, and you understand there are professionals available to help you.

I support clients who feel emotionally drained, constantly on edge, stuck in cycles, and swinging between emptiness and overwhelm. Many struggle with anxiety, shame, panic, disconnection, or low self-esteem, as well as traits of BPD, trauma, PTSD, depression, bipolar, OCD, eating disorders, identity-based harm, or LGBTQ-related stress. They seek a safe, culturally attuned, trauma-informed space to understand how their nervous system adapted, reclaim silenced parts of themselves, and break patterns. They want true healing to feel grounded, connected, and in control.

In my 20+ years of providing therapy, I have learned that the most important part of this process is having a safe, comfortable space to pause, unpack, laugh, cry, regroup and create a plan for moving forward. Our busy lives can leave us feeling stressed, anxious and overwhelmed, somehow disconnected from ourselves and our emotions. With many competing responsibilities and expectations, we sometimes start feeling as though we are losing our way. My intention is to help you focus on your strengths, resources and innate compassion, thereby uncovering new personal narratives about who you are and your ability to cope.
