We live in a traumatized world with many factors impacting our mental health and well-being negatively. Everything from war, conflicts, racial violence, displacement, loss, grief, family and relationship issues, life transitions, all test our strength and ability to cope with the demands of everyday life. We all need support, human connection, kindness and compassion to get through these difficult times. It can be difficult to reach out for help and embark on an unknown path to a healing journey. It takes courage and commitment to engage in therapy but it can also be extremely rewarding when you get the appropriate support.

Now offering EMDR- My practice is a warm, safe space where you can express challenging feelings openly, without fear of being judged. If you choose to work with me, I will hold space for you to focus, identify, and sit with potentially uncomfortable emotions and thoughts. I believe that emotions hold meaning and serve a purpose for us. The more we become aware of where our feelings, beliefs, and reactions come from, the better equipped we are to choose how we will respond in the future - rather than just reacting. We can work together to build this emotional awareness.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, struggling to navigate life's challenges? Too often we believe that our downfalls define us, rather than guide us and illuminate a path of learning and becoming. We feel alone as we mask our imperfections to morph into a world we believe rewards otherwise. Yet, in our loneliness lives an unspoken unity because we each carry the weight of our mask. I understand the complexity of emotions that arise in difficult times. If you're seeking to understand and manage your emotions, you've got to the right place. I'm here to help.

It is hard to be human these days between the daily traumas of colonial-capitalist culture & the intergenerational wounds that we endure from dysfunctional family patterns of relating. I call what we do in therapy a collaborative spiritual workout where we put our heads & hearts together to better understand your problems & find different, more expansive ways of navigating them. We talk about your problems, your feelings, we explore solutions, we celebrate your wins, and we look at how your problems show up & play out in our relationship. Brave conversations allow us to build relational safety, one step and one session at a time.

I treat adolescents and adults whose thoughts, emotions, behaviours, senses of self, and/or relationships are dysregulated. I use evidence-based therapies like Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Prolonged Exposure (PE) – to support clients with borderline personality disorder (BPD), complex trauma, substance use, and other difficulties (like anxiety and depression). I balance acceptance and change-based strategies to reduce clients’ suffering and to make their lives more meaningful.

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.

My therapeutic approach is person-centered and rooted in values of diversity, anti-oppression, social justice, and personal growth, and is inclusive of all identities and expressions. I work with individuals and couples with the goal of helping them meet their goals for wellbeing and self-understanding. I work with a variety of presenting concerns, including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, situational stress or distress, emotional exploration, and difficulties in relationships.

Life may feel tough right now, like you can barely cope. You might long to switch off your brain or emotions, or feel like it's hard to get relationships right. Maybe you’re hurting, telling yourself there’s something wrong with you. I promise there’s nothing wrong with you. Hurting is human, and so is wanting someone to walk with you through pain to healing. Often this means reconnecting with who you are beneath the strategies you’ve built to keep going and stay safe. We all have these, and they work well, but they can come at the cost of losing touch with our truest Self, along with its full capacity to experience joy and calm.
