Vivian Xu
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc, MEd, RP
Verified
I offer an integrative approach that's collaborative,
trauma
-informed/specific and compassion focused.
*I currently only offer virtual sessions* Welcome to my profile. First and foremost, I want to acknowledge your courage to seek support and every effort that brought you to this point in your journey. The human experience is deeply complex and we all need a gentle voice to guide us through transitions and challenges (myself included). I believe most mental health challenges stem from our innate desire to survive and connect with others - we are human after all. By becoming aware of your relational patterns and emotional responses, you can foster better understanding of yourself and others.

My area of specialization is
trauma
and addictions.
As a therapist I aim to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can discuss personal and sensitive issues. I will work collaboratively with you to help you find the solutions that are best for you. Through psychotherapy you can explore negative emotions, gain insight to problematic thoughts and behaviours and learn healthy coping strategies that will help to rebuild your self confidence. If you are feeling depressed, anxious, stressed or overwhelmed therapy can help you overcome these feelings. If you are struggling in your relationships, therapy can help you create more satisfying and meaningful relationships.
Ela (Aurela) Vangjeli
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Verified
My specialty is helping people with lived experiences of
trauma
, sexual abuse, anxiety, depression, feelings of rejection, and low- self esteem.
"You cannot do it alone and no one can do it for you" P.L. You may have noticed that your mood fluctuates between feeling anxious and/or depressed. And you don't know how to navigate or interrupt this cycle. Life is nudging you towards seeking support because at times holding it all by yourself feels like too much. In therapy with me, you will feel heard, and understood. You will learn what is overwhelming your internal system (thoughts, feelings and experiences in the body) and be able to move towards regulation, ease and balance. I bring a sense of curiosity and compassion and empower you to lead with courage and confidence.

trauma
& chronic pain.
Are you tired of living in "survival mode"? Either feeling chronically unsettled or inexpressibly low and numb! Perhaps, something feels missing; an emptiness you can’t quite put your finger on! There comes a time when just getting by is not enough and we can no longer hide behind a smile. Change begins when we decide that "waiting for the pain to dissipate" is no longer an option. So what if you could take back control of your life and live unchained by your history? How far would you thrive if you could tailor a life of your own design, uninterrupted by stress, anxiety or pain stories?
