Vish Kularatnam
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Verified
I am a firm believer that individuals hold the natural ability to change their lives in a meaningful way. Being a passionate advocate for client-centered care, I recognize that we are all navigating identity, experience, relationships, mental health, and the systems we find ourselves in. I support clients who want to become the best version of themselves but are finding it difficult to begin. Change is scary! It can bring new experiences, vulnerability, and perhaps difficulty. Appreciating this, I provide a non-judgemental space where individuals can feel heard, acknowledged, and supported as you do make those first steps.

Verified
I work from an anti-oppressive, trauma informed, client centered perspective. In other words I respect the perspectives, goals and needs of my clients who are seeking support to understand themselves and others. As a therapist I become your ally in search of your truth and understanding of yourself, the world and others around you. I believe that working with a therapist can be helpful in sorting out your feeling and thoughts to face your challenges in life and become the best version of yourself. I aim to offer a non-judgmental and open conversation so you can find the way to build awareness and making changes in your life.

Pre-Licensed Professional, BA Hons

Life throws us into situations that we are expected to know how to navigate, but we don’t typically get taught how to cope with the spectrum of life’s happenings. Insecurities, uncertainty, and doubt can lead us to avoid discomfort and difficult situations. Avoidance often leads us to shy away from opportunities for profound self-growth. I hope to be someone in your corner that helps you to grow comfortable to explore the vulnerable parts of your internal and external world, to make sense of it.

Fatima Murtaza
Registered Social Worker, BAPsych, MSW, RSW
Verified
Life is challenging enough without adding a pandemic to the mix. Much of what we used to rely on to bring happiness day to day is now limited. So it is understandable we are more vulnerable to feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or experience strain in our relationships. This feels familiar to the clients I see, who describe being stuck, depressed, feeling angst, and not sure why or how to stop it. I've been there too, stuck with pain from the past and unsure how to throw the baggage away. I can help you find some peace, with a few satisfying 'A-ha' moment here and there, so you can release the toxic patterns for good!

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP

Now welcoming new clients! With over 17 years experience, I work collaboratively with teens (12-18), adults, and families to find hope and regain balance. Perhaps you've suffered great loss or you're wanting more from your relationships. Maybe you're re-evaluating your life and are on the brink of a major transition. Or you're worried about your teen and the direction they're headed. A lot of us get weighed down by one thing after another. Whatever it is, if you're feeling unsure or unsettled and you're seeking a greater sense of ease, allow me to support you.

Do you find yourself wanting to ask for help but struggling to reach out? Let therapy be the first step. I am happy to hold the space for you to begin your healing. Healing means recognizing old patterns, learning new ways of being, and ultimately expanding your self-awareness. It means learning to trust yourself again in mind, body, and spirit. I have a deep passion for helping others and would be honoured to do this work with you.
Ninotchka Sequeira
Registered Social Worker, BA, BEd, MSW, RSW
Verified
I am committed to building a relationship that supports your unique needs, develops your strengths and fosters your innate ability to heal. Often, we aren’t afforded the time, opportunity or privilege to learn the most beneficial ways to sift through what comes our way. We tackle things as best we can using strategies learned from previous experiences. In some situations, our default strategies end up taking us further away from what we want. This can prevent us from fulfilling our needs - we may get stuck not knowing how to cope or how to move forward. I primarily use non talk-therapy modules of Structural Dissociation, EMDR, DBR.
Paula Klein

I embrace the opportunity to work with clients to reach, grow, thrive and flourish in their personal and/or professional lives, and move more easily through life. I also facilitate workshops and professional development training in Applied Positive Psychology, covering both theory and tools, to increase resilience and wellbeing.

A strong and trusting relationship with your therapist is an important part of your therapy experience. My approach is non-judgmental, caring, authentic and collaborative.

Corey R. Turnbull
Counsellor, MSc, OAMHP

Guys have way more going on emotionally than most of us are comfortable talking about. If you have never talked to someone about whatever it is that you probably should talk to someone about, then I may be the guy for you. Some men come to my office after they've recently broken up with their girlfriend (or she has broken up with him). Some are dealing with anxiety or are living under the influence of depression. Some guys are trying to figure out who they really are and what to do with their life. What they all have in common is that they have strengths to draw on and want to advance in life feeling better than they do now.

Tamara Lynn Robert
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Verified
A gentle, sometimes urgent restlessness can awaken you. Sometimes, when you stop to listen, you hear a small but persistent voice that urges you towards healing. This voice may invite you into exploring what keeps you from love and belonging. It dares to hope for fuller joy and well-being.Through it all, you have survived but it is not uncommon to need to return to wounded places that feel old and new all at once. Painful experiences in your current life can often stir up familiar echoes, that resound against the tender places of yesteryear.
Lauren David
Psychologist, PhD, CPsych
Verified
I have the goal of helping people become their own therapists. I work with people feeling stuck in unhelpful thinking patterns and who find themselves returning to behaviours that they perceive to be unfulfilling or unhelpful. My primary therapeutic orientation is cognitive-behavioural, but I also have experience incorporating evidence-based approaches like mindfulness, self-compassion, emotion regulation skills, and motivational interviewing (MI). Treatment is tailored to the needs and goals of each person. Grenadier's practice is LGBTQ positive, trauma-informed, and weight inclusive.
