Therapists in N2L
Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or pressured to maintain your responsibilities and relationships? This can take a toll on your mental health; sometimes, it feels like anxiety and/or depression, which often manifest as fatigue, listlesness, or avoidance.
Maybe you push yourself in the other direction: over-achieving, held to impossible standards of perfectionism, and a chronically busy schedule?
I’m passionate about mental health, and enjoy meeting clients in a safe, empowering, genuine way. I believe that you are the best authority on your life, and my job is to help you navigate a path through self-discovery and healing.

On the outside, you’re highly functional—excelling in your career and managing every responsibility. But internally, you are battling chronic burnout and a persistent sense of imposter syndrome, feeling like it’s only a matter of time before it all feels 'too much.'
You might also notice yourself repeating the same frustrating cycles in your romantic relationships—choosing partners who are emotionally unavailable or finding yourself in familiar, painful dynamics even when you logically 'know better.'

The ways we learn to cope often make perfect sense given what we have been through. Over time, those same patterns can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed. I work with individuals and couples navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, attachment injuries, infidelity, and the lasting effects of sexual abuse and assault. If you are caught in patterns you cannot seem to shift, or carrying something that has never felt fully safe to explore, this is a space built for exactly that work.

Welcome, I am really glad you're here.
Perhaps you’ve reached a point where you need space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most. You might be navigating changes in your personal life, feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or looking for deeper support in your work as a therapist.
You deserve a space where you can be heard, where your experiences make sense in context, and where growth and healing can unfold through genuine connection. Supervision and/or Therapy can be a place to understand yourself or your clients more deeply.

It's 3am again. You woke up two hours ago and your mind hasn't stopped - tomorrow's to-do list, the thing you said in the meeting that landed wrong, whether you remembered to RSVP for the birthday party, whether that email you sent at 8pm was too direct. Somehow you thought you'd feel "happy" and "together" by now, but instead you're filled with dread. You did everything the responsible way - the degree, the career, the calendar that runs everyone's life - and now your body keeps a schedule you didn't pick. Nothing technically "looks" broken. But is this the life you actually want? You're just running on empty and you know it

Welcome! I've been a licensed psychologist for over 25 years, with primary specialties in treating folks with eating disorders, body image issues, and anxiety. I also have extensive experience working with self-esteem, depression, bipolar, transitions, and other issues.
I work collaboratively with each patient to help them define and move toward their goals for therapy. We may develop insight about why they are the way they are, and we'll use concrete strategies to change how they relate to their feelings, thoughts, body, actions, and/or themselves. Changing these relationships is how my patients move toward their specific goals.

Compassion, effectiveness, dedication. Hi!, I'm a friendly psychologist trained at the University of Waterloo and have been in private practice since 1994. My sessions are entirely via internet video or phone, as I don't have an external office. When you seek therapy it's very important that you feel comfortable and confident that your therapist understands you and can work with your unique needs and issues. Listening to really understand each person's world is critical to me and to the therapeutic relationship. Feeling heard, respected and understood is the beginning of making productive and healthy changes in our lives.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or carrying responsibilities that have left little room for their own wellbeing. At Kasike Counselling, we work with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, identity, and burnout. Our role isn’t to tell people who they should become—it’s to help them reconnect with the clarity, confidence, and inner leadership they already possess so they can move forward with purpose.

You are trying to build a future that keeps shifting under your feet. Will there even be jobs? Will AI make your degree pointless? Everyone online seems to have it figured out while you are still not sure what you are doing. That worry does not stay in your head. It shows up in your body: the nausea before emails, the headaches, the racing heart, the nights you cannot switch off, the way you start avoiding the things that scare you. If the future feels less exciting than it does frightening, you are not overreacting and you are not alone. For a lot of people right now, this is what anxiety looks like.

I’m honoured your journey led you here. Hello, I’m Rebecca!
My depth therapy approach focuses on healing attachment wounds and rebuilding a sense of inner safety, especially if you’re used to being the strong one or the helper. This work is especially supportive if you feel emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, stuck in old patterns, or struggle to feel safe and grounded.
For over a decade, I’ve supported adults with anxiety, OCD and intrusive thoughts, self-esteem concerns, boundaries, and repeating relationship patterns such as fear of intimacy, abandonment wounds, people-pleasing, and relationship anxiety.

I believe that each individual is inherently motivated to grow and find personal meaning. Tuning into our capacity for growth can be difficult, particularly as we move through an increasingly confusing and difficult world. As a psychotherapist, it is my privilege to support adults and couples as they work to navigate life’s challenges.
In addition to more general concerns, I specialize in supporting musician mental health. I hold graduate degrees in piano performance and choral conducting and worked as a university instructor for many years. I now bring this unique skillset to my clinical practice.

Living a full and satisfying life is never easy, and can oftentimes be lonely and overwhelming. Nobody can or should “go it alone.” You may want to grow, learn, or tackle obstacles in your path. Or perhaps you simply want to relax and be heard. Regardless, you have come to a good place. My goal as a therapist and human being is to accompany you on your personal journey, supporting you in the ways you want, helping you realize who you might want to be, and providing you with tools/strategies to help you in a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental environment.

Have you ever been told that you are too sensitive or shy? That you are overreacting? Have you ever wondered why you think so much and so deep? Why you are affected by the moods of others, or easily frazzled when there is too much going on? Do you have difficulty with conflict, using your voice, or saying no? Have you ever been diagnosed with or wonder if you have an anxiety disorder, depression, low self-esteem, or perfectionism?

Society tells us becoming a parent should to be natural, joyful, and will happen within our desired timeline. For some there is truth to this, but many parents are left disoriented with the gap between their expectations and reality. We are urged to pour into our children, give them all of our attention, but also find time for ourselves and our relationship. The challenges of this stage of life can leave parents feeling lonely, overwhelmed and with a sense of personal failure. You might wonder who you even are anymore and if things will ever change - If you are struggling, you are not alone, and it doesn’t have to stay this way.

Psychotherapy offers a unique opportunity to engage in self and interpersonal exploration and make meaningful connections. It is a place where, together, we can navigate life’s many challenges and build strength and resilience. I hope to offer a safe and supportive space to process, heal, and grow. I work to bring insight, awareness, and self-compassion into the therapy space. Therapy can be a space to discuss any topic, big or small, and focuses on creating resources, exploring emotions, and understanding thoughts and behaviors. I have been a Registered Psychotherapist for 7 years with the CRPO.

Do you find yourself caught in the same painful relationship patterns, no matter how hard you try? Maybe you crave closeness but fear abandonment — or long for connection but pull away when things get intimate. Perhaps you struggle with low self-worth, feel like you're never quite "enough," or find your emotions overwhelming and hard to make sense of.
Sometimes life transitions and changes like motherhood, perimenopause and menopause bring emotional instability, identity questions, difficulty accepting and connecting to yourself and your body or feeling that you've lost yourself.
