Female Therapists in Central Toronto, Toronto, ON

I am currently accepting new clients. I help women experiencing work related burnout, stress and anxiety. Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or burnt out? Perhaps you are worrying a lot about the future, or dwelling on past mistakes. You may have difficulty navigating your relationship with your manager, or struggle with managing your emotions and reactions. You could be feeling like an imposter, worried that you don't have what it takes to succeed. You feel like you're drowning in responsibilities and neglecting what really matters. The things you used to find relaxing and fulfilling are no longer working for you. I can help.

As a therapist I feel honoured to support others grow and connect to their truest selves. My approach is warm, collaborative, honest and empathic. I work with adults experiencing challenges including: anxiety, depression, low self esteem, gender, sexuality and queer issues, relationship challenges, trauma and navigating life transitions. I am a white, cisgendered queer woman . My practice strives to be anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, LGBTQ2S and sex positive.

I believe that no one is immune to life's challenges and variabilities. Hopelessness, anxiety, fear, and other negative emotions can become overwhelming, affecting our overall wellness, leaving us exhausted. I help my clients overcome these difficult emotions by providing a non-judgmental, affirming and safe environment that respects boundaries and offers the space they require for their healing process.

I am a cisgender woman , with Mi’kmaw and Settler roots; as a result, the holistic therapy I provide is rooted in an anti-oppression approach. I was lucky enough to earn a Master of Social Work from the University of Buffalo. I chose that program because, unlike most other programs, it offered a specialty in utilizing a Trauma-Informed Focus. I was also trained in using EMDR. I have six years’ experience providing therapy; first in the USA and now in Canada. I’ve also provided services in community settings like the youth justice system and a community task force created to help deal with the human trafficking epidemic.

I work with the whole person. My practice is called The Courage Room because our bodies are the courage room. You're here because you've made it to a turning point. Bon courage!

I work with many creatives (including pregnant women / new parents), the gifted, &/or highly sensitive people with trauma & attachment wounds. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, sexual assault & incest. As a writer/educator, I can step into an active coaching role (for those who request this).

I specialize in supporting folks struggling with perfectionism, inner criticism, anxiety, inadequacy, and difficult transitions (career, school, relationships). We'll discuss your goals, reconnect with your values, and explore ways to move through life's difficulties so you can do more of what matters to you.

Life is a beautiful journey, though it might have challenges for you for identity development, relationships, maintaining healthy boundaries, emotional regulations, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. You often feel overwhelmed and need help managing everything as effectively as you would like. Together, we can explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours to gain a deeper understanding of your struggles and create a plan to overcome them. We can work on improving your communication skills, building your self-esteem and self-awareness, and developing healthier coping mechanisms.I recognize the courage it takes to seek help.

I identify as a cis-gender, racialized Asian woman whose approach embraces a wholistic, reflective, equity-seeking, anti-oppressive/anti-racist decolonized lens. It's been an honour to be welcomed into many diverse communities through 20+ years in education, support and case management with racialized communities, gender diverse individuals, Indigenous peoples, people living with HIV/AIDS, newcomer populations, people who use substances, as well as sexual trauma survivors. The evolution of my practice includes a metaphysical component that acknowledges the interplay of mind/body/spirit

I understand the feeling of struggling to exist as your genuine self in a world that feels against you, in an environment that feels suffocating, and in a relationship that feels unendurable. Our lives do not exist in a bubble, and our experiences are impacted by the intersecting identities each of us hold. When we reach out for help, we are hoping that someone can understand us and hold space for our stories. I work with people every day who are looking for support in understanding how they can live congruently with their own values and core beliefs.

I specialize in supporting racialized queer, non-binary, and trans folks.
