Therapists in M6G

As a client, you may or may not have a clear sense of what brings you to therapy. You may be dealing with depression, anxiety, or addiction, among other things. You might just feel not-great but don't have a clear idea of what the matter is. Maybe you're experiencing trouble in relationships. Perhaps you can't seem to kick some destructive habits.

Do you find that anxiety is overshadowing your daily life? Is it challenging for you to manage your emotions, especially when they seem intense or overwhelming? I can help! I am currently a student intern working under supervision while I'm completing a Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology. Life's changes can be hard, but you don't have to face them alone. I'm here to support you through these transitions, helping you adapt and grow.

Do you feel stuck? Cut off from your needs, desires, or identity? Are you ready to create changes in your life? If so, I'm glad you're here! Trying to figure it all out alone can be exhausting and confusing, whether you’re focused on school, career, relationships, self-discovery, or all of the above. Being unsure of your needs not only makes decision-making feel nearly impossible, but it may also lead to a pressure to live according to the expectations of others. This can create anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, burnout, and living a life that doesn’t feel like it’s truly yours. I understand how you feel, and I’m here for you.

Greetings! I’m Samantha and I’m the founder of Curated Counselling: a practice built on a personalized and compatible counselling experience. Miriam Webster’s Dictionary defines “curated” as: “carefully chosen and thoughtfully organized and presented” - which is precisely what Curated Counselling brings to the table. In a mental health culture of cookie cutter and “one size fits all” approaches to healing, I strive to provide my clients with a personalized experience tailored to them and their individual needs.

Our lives can sometimes be filled with pleasure and wonder, but they can also be filled with turmoil and pain. Problems can arise that lead to anxiety, depression, or other symptoms that affect daily living. My desire is to not only help you live, but to thrive. If your experiences with friends, relationships, and intimacy have made life challenging, be comforted that there is hope. We’ll work together toward a path of healing that is creative, unique, and right for you. I do not subscribe to pathologizing a person’s experiences; my passion lies with helping others safely and curiously navigate what is happening in their lives.

Everything changes when you fall in love with truth. Inner alignment, no matter where it takes you, is both the means and the end. If you're struggling with depression, anxiety, boundaries, isolation, narcissistic abuse, and/or low self esteem then it might be your intention to develop a keener sense of what your place in life is meant to be, create healthier boundaries and relationships. Together we can explore your inner world, understand who you are at your core, and what you need to develop into the vibrant human being you were always meant to be. Remember, to begin with, that our most important relationship is with ourselves.

In starting therapy or returning to it, you may be seeking someone to talk to, psychological perspectives, tools and resources, and change. You may be struggling with depression, anxiety, or any of the long list of names given to conditions we can struggle with. My approach is client-centered as you are the expert on you, and I prefer to not pathologize and stigmatize. My perspective is that there are causes and contributors to the thoughts, feelings and behaviours which we find most difficult, and which can become traits and labels - and yet also - which can be changed.

Every single person will need compassionate support, personalized guidance and wisdom, at some point in their lives. If you have a history of trauma, a painful childhood, or have suffered from anxiety/depression for a long time, then this is even more true of you. Emotions and thoughts can be confusing and even hurtful to yourself and others. Some mental states are so complex, that seem to be layer upon layer of suffering. Life can be a rollercoaster and healthy stable relationships appear to be too much work! Imagine not to be defined by your history or struggles. Imagine being able to tap into joy and inner strength at any time!

In uncertain times you may feel overwhelmed by difficulties & feeling stuck. Many problems we experience are not our fault. I can help you effectively & quickly resolve relationship problems, sexual abuse trauma, feelings of betrayal, abandonment, social anxiety, self blame, self esteem, motivation & unsettling shame issues. Many times we lose our purpose in life & do not understand why we are plagued by unhelpful thoughts & feelings. By seeing me you will be understood even when your values may differ from your loved ones and others in your life. Contact me for a .5 hr initial consult & you will be relieved you did so.

I am a community psycho-spiritual therapist, grounded in my work in spiritual care and supported by the evidence-based modalities of DBT, CBT, narrative therapy, somatic therapy and EFT. I also am focused on politicizing therapy through the teachings of mad studies, addressing the social location of clients and how they are impacted by the loss of power in their lives that contributes to grief and anxiety. I bring in the wholeness of the human being through a holistic, decolonial, trauma-informed, anti-capitalist and client-centred approach.

You deserve to be happy...and you don't need to struggle alone. Stress, worry, sadness, restlessness, frustration, anger, loss, or loneliness can all feel overwhelming at times...but care, connection, treatment, healing, and empowerment are all within reach. Within psychotherapy... insight, understanding, self-awareness, tools for coping, better functioning, and new ways of relating or behaving are all part of the process of change that you may be hoping for. Whether it be unresolved issues from the past or present circumstances and challenges, a safe, respectful, accepting, patient, and encouraging therapeutic space can be surprisingly rewarding, and make more of a difference than expected.

Hello there! Thanks for stopping in and checking out my therapy profile. My objective as a Registered Psycho-Sexual Therapist & Social Worker is to provide an avenue for you to focus on what you want! The therapy is specific to your concerns. This could be helping you restore your passion for relationships, sex, marriage, communication, balancing work/life and understanding anxiety. I appreciate that you want to learn new strategies and have resources to engage. My approach uses Relational( Psychodynamic) and Psychobiology( mind/body connection) Therapy. I look forward to talking with you. Talk. Feel. Listen

I believe in an empathic, collaborative approach, so that you may always be part of the therapeutic process. Psychotherapy allows for a unique relationship, whereby the focus of attention is on understanding you. It provides an opportunity for openness, trust and honesty, often difficult in other interpersonal situations. It can help you to increase your resilience to life challenges and improve relationships. I use a range of therapy modalities according to the best fit for your needs and personality. Greater meaning in life can be achieved by longer term therapy, but also brief periods of therapy which are cumulative.

We all want to feel better and brighter, more joyful and alive. We crave rich, fulfilling relationships. Do you suffer from stress, anxiety, depression, or chronic health issues? Are you feeling stuck navigating difficult life transitions or relationship issues? Let’s work together to identify your strengths and work through your challenges in a warm, safe space using a gentle yet powerful process.

I understand that seeking therapy can be a difficult first step to take. I provide my clients with a safe and non-judgmental space to navigate the various stressors in their lives and the difficult emotions they may be experiencing. I am a Registered Social Worker, working with children, teenagers and adolescents. I utilize a strengths-based, collaborative and empathetic therapeutic approach to support clients in recognizing their potential and increasing their well-being.

With caring, compassion, and good humor, I can help you increase clarity into your personal values and goals, identify and change patterns that are holding you back, and make meaning from your experiences. I collaborate with you to ensure that we are effectively making strides to restoring a sense of balance. I provide Individual Therapy for Adolescents and Adults to treat Mood and Anxiety Disorders, Relationship Issues, Life and Career Transitions, Addiction, and Emotion Dysregulation. I have advanced training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and have practiced in residential, intensive outpatient, and outpatient clinic settings.

I work with people who, in spite of great difficulties, have not given up on finding meaning in their lives. I help them as they struggle with isolation, depression, anxiety, grief or early trauma. Some are trying their best to manage difficult relationships. Others are wondering about their orientation or identity--gendered, sexual, ethnic. Others still are planning the next meaningful transition in their lives.

Trouble sleeping? You’re not alone. Sleep therapy is the top recommended treatment for chronic insomnia, supported by the American College of Family Practice and the Academy of Sleep Medicine. I offer online counseling and sleep therapy across British Columbia and Ontario via secure video chat. With over a decade of experience as a social worker and therapist, I can help you build a healthier relationship with sleep and find gentle, effective ways to handle everyday stresses or complex mental health issues. Together, we can create a plan that fits your life and brings you the rest you deserve.

Welcome! I am passionate about supporting individuals from all walks of life, with particular experience supporting the 2SLGBTQ community, neurodiversity, and post-secondary students. I believe in an integrative therapy approach that best supports people to reach their goals, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness, and others. I strive to incorporate an anti-oppressive and trauma-informed framework and acknowledge the many ways intersecting identities can shape our lives and needs in therapy.
