With the constant changes and demands in our society, do you feel stuck and alone? Do you sometimes feel that you are not fully heard, or accepted as who you are? Whether you are dealing with relationship issues, work/school-related stress, or lack of confidence, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment that allows you to unravel emotional chaos and develop new insights. It is my goal as your therapist to work with you in order to foster this process of change and growth.

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW

I am a Toronto-based therapist trained to help individuals with high levels of stress and anxiety. Anxiety and stress can be debilitating without the proper supports in place. Often we feel overwhelmed with worry or isolated with numbness. It takes courage to reach out, but please know that it can get better over time. Those feelings can change and together we can find the coping skills that suit you and your needs.

If you are experiencing struggles and seeking support, you are not alone. Loss, trauma, conflict, life changes, emotional and mental suffering do not discriminate. Any one of us can go through periods full of difficulties - some more than others, but every person has personal knowledge of suffering in their lives. Therapy is not easy and there is no quick fix, but I am here to work with you, hear and understand you, and support your self-discovery process. I want to learn about your story, path and beliefs, and together with you identify areas where you have strengths and areas where you need to explore and try new ways of being.

To me, the main purpose of therapy is the pursuit of a more meaningful life. I work with adults experiencing stress and anxiety, mood issues, substance misuse, psychosis, and relationship problems to help them live more purposeful and fulfilled lives. I'll work collaboratively with you to identify and understand your difficulties and find out what's getting in the way of you living your most meaningful life. We'll then develop a personalized treatment plan that builds on your strengths and with which I will teach you the skills to navigate life's obstacles.

Registered Psychotherapist, CTP, Dipl

Sometimes we have a profound sense that the way we have been moving through our lives doesn't fit anymore. This realization can be coupled with anxiety, depression, aggression, sleeplessness, repetitive actions or thoughts, and feelings of isolation or fragmentation. It is hard to find yourself in this place, and even harder to know where to turn. Realizing something isn't quite right is the first step----talking to someone is the next. I offer a 'no fee' 1 hour Introductory Session so that you can see if I am the right therapist for you. I work with Individuals and Couples age 18 and up.
Nicholas Fink
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MA
Verified
Taking a person-centred and trauma-informed approach to psychotherapy, I pay special attention to who my client is as an individual. I believe that the relationship between a client and therapist should be an empathetic, nonjudgmental, and authentic dynamic. This provides a safe space to acquire more effective coping skills, explore one's needs and potential, and develop more adaptive behaviours. When we feel understood and validated for who we are, we are more easily able to accept ourselves and acknowledge our needs. This can lead to incredible changes in the way we view ourselves and the world.

Anxiety sucks. It is a constant, gripping presence in life, whispering in our ears to fear the worst. It creeps up at the most inconvenient times and makes it hard to navigate our lives and make clear decisions without fear. There are tools and strategies to help manage your anxiety. With ten years in practice, focusing in anxiety and trauma, I can help by sharing my wisdom and experience and support you in putting into practice a lifestyle and targeted, personalized strategies for making anxiety more manageable. I am registered with NIHB for Indigenous clients.

Holding it Together
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP
Verified
I work exclusively with autistic and queer & trans neurodivergent people. As an autistic, trans & queer therapist, I don't ‘treat’ autism or gender divergence. I treat the trauma caused by neurodisablism & sanism, cissexism & heterosexism. Instead helping you ‘adapt’ or ‘hide’ your ‘differences’ to “fit in” to neurotypical culture, I support you to diverge, to find your other way, and find your way to others. Together we can turn the tables on disablement & pathologization from the inside out and the outside in.

Many of us go through life experiences that leave us feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and struggling to relate meaningfully with others. I believe deeply in our innate capacity to heal, grow, and connect; sometimes we just need support and guidance on that journey. Whether working with individuals or couples, I prioritize creating a safe, warm, and attentive space to explore your challenges and generate new ways of being with yourself, with each other, and in the world.

I provide a comfortable and safe place to work with your emotions and develop insight into life patterns that are no longer serving you. Whether you are coming to therapy to unpack past painful experiences or work towards future goals of living a more fulfilling and meaningful life, I welcome a chance to guide you through the process. Through our work together I can help you realize your full potential, strengthen important relationships and live a more integrated and confident life. Through this process my clients develop a more in depth understanding of themselves which enables more authentic living.
Faith Sundaralingam
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW

The experiences and challenges that we go through in life do not define us, but instead shape us to be the individuals that we are today; These experiences help us to flourish and grow in ways that we could not imagine for ourselves. This is a philosophy that I hold in great regard when it comes to my practice and work with clients. I recognize that therapy can be intimidating to some. However, I am passionate about creating a space where we can come together and work through whatever it is you’re going through, no matter what it may look like.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP

Beginning therapy can no doubt feel a bit daunting. The therapy process can be frustrating, painful, and sometimes frightening if we’ve never had the opportunity to be listened to in a way where we can truly express ourselves. But it can also be rewarding and transformative, offering growth as well as a new sense of awareness about ourselves. Free of judgement, we can examine these things together in an effort to both alleviate distress and identify more constructive ways of being and coping.

Pre-Licensed Professional, Gestalt, CAPT

Whether you’re feeling anxious, uncertain, unsupported in your relationships, or going through difficult emotions, I believe that you’re coping with it the best way you can. We're not meant to live life “toughing it out” on our own. When you go through times of feeling isolated, or find it challenging to receive support or reach out to family and friends, therapy can be a place where you don’t have to do it alone. Good therapy rests on a sense of connection with your therapist. That's why I offer a free 20-minute consultation – for you to find out how you are with me, and how I am with you, before taking the next step.

Being a human in this world is f*cking HARD. The hustle and grind of capitalism, systemic oppression, environmental crisis, a culture of competition and harmful beauty standards; all of these things and more exert significant pressures on our bodies and minds. If you're struggling, you are not alone. Through a collaborative therapeutic alliance, we can use our time together to build positive coping skills, set and achieve goals, navigate relationships, family, work, school and other areas of life, unpack how traumatic life experiences are impacting your mental health, and embark on a path of personal healing and growth.
