In Person Therapists in Toronto, ON
I have limited space for new clients and welcome you to reach out today for in-person or virtual care!
I work with individuals experiencing feelings of disconnection, anxiety, and self-criticism. Do you ever feel like you can't live up to your own standards or those of others? As though no matter how hard you try you remain stuck or unfulfilled? In a society that promotes speed, wealth, and unrealistic standards (of beauty, relationships, even self-care!) it can be increasingly difficult to find a space in which we feel heard and validated. When life prevents you from seeing the best version of yourself, I will see it for you, bringing your strengths and values to the forefront of our work together.

Hello, kumusta! I’m Mayu. If you grew up in a space where mental health was rarely talked about or even dismissed, you’re not alone. I’m here to offer a warm, supportive space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and valued, just as you are. You might be navigating cultural identity, life transitions, or the quiet weight of others’ expectations. Maybe you're seeking clarity, self-understanding, or simply a space where you don't have to explain yourself. Whatever brings you here, we’ll explore your goals, values, and needs, creating space for reflection, acceptance, and meaningful change at your own pace.

Life is inevitably full of challenges, yet rich with possibilities. While some difficulties resolve themselves, others can leave us feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Through dedicated psychological work, we can collaboratively identify the patterns underlying persistent problems, learn practical skills, and reclaim direction in your life. I utilize evidence-based interventions to uncover barriers, build strategies, and strengthen your resources to make lasting, sustainable change.

Somewhere along the way, eating stopped feeling simple...and the work goes beyond food. I bring over a decade of experience supporting people as they navigate their relationship with food, their bodies, creativity and inner-experience. Using a trauma-informed approach, I work with people experiencing eating challenges, especially those affected by complex trauma. Together, we address not just behaviors around food, but also the underlying experiences that shape them.

I offer in-person sessions at my office in Roncesvalles and I offer video sessions via Zoom.
You seem calm on the outside—but inside, it’s noisy. Like you’re buzzing with overwhelm just beneath the surface. You’re sensitive, thoughtful, and tired of running on emotional fumes.
There’s a kind of exhaustion that comes from feeling so much with nowhere to put it. Maybe you’re grieving in silence, in one of life’s transitions, or quietly stuck in that ache of “Is this all there is?”
You’re not looking to be fixed. You want space to untangle what’s been building inside. You long to feel more grounded—less like you’re performing the role of “human,” and more like you’re expressing your authentic humanity and natural vitality.

My approach to psychotherapy is integrative and is rooted in the belief that longstanding difficulties in our relationships with ourselves and others have their origins in our early developmental experiences. I specialize in addressing a spectrum of issues including abandonment anxiety, perfectionism, conflicts about dependency, difficulty in opening up to others, boundary-setting dilemmas, feeling stuck in unsatisfying relationship patterns, and excessive self-criticism. I will work in collaboration with you towards co-constructing a coherent narrative of your past, present experiences, and fears and aspirations for your future.

Perhaps you are an individual feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating a difficult life transition, or wrestling with depression. You might be part of a couple feeling stuck in repetitive arguments, yearning to rebuild trust and connection. Whatever your story, you are likely seeking a sense of clarity and relief. You want to understand the "why" behind your feelings and patterns, and you need practical tools to manage the challenges you're facing. Your goal isn't just to feel better in the short term, but to build a more confident, resilient, and fulfilling life and relationships.

I offer therapy in-person and virtually at both locations: Downtown Sundays & Mondays, Leslieville Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays.
If you wake up and dread having to start your day, let’s talk. Whether it’s work, school, home, or even your relationships, life seems to keep throwing you challenges that you don’t want or know how to manage. It’s starting to feel like you’re stuck in a never-ending pattern. And as humans, we often do function on autopilot and get caught in cycles of behaviour that we know aren’t healthy or good for us, but we just can’t seem to stop. How is it that we can be so aware and feel so powerless at the same time?
What if I told you that it’s not your fault and that human brains are actually wired that way for an important reason?

Client sessions are conducted in person in my bright office, by phone or using Sessions, an easy-to-use PHIPA compliant telemedicine client.
Investing in understanding yourself — what makes you unique, what makes you strong, and how you may hold yourself back — is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself. Self-awareness is like a super-power — it doesn’t solve all life’s problems, but it gives you ways of navigating challenges that make you more likely land well. Whether you are looking for quick tools to help shift your mood, or longer-term support for charting a course through a major life transition, or puzzling through challenges with end-of-life, grief, family, relationships or work, I feel privileged to support your success and be and a part of your story.

To the “lost children”—
Those whose feelings, thoughts, identities, or very existence were never fully accepted—Those carrying trauma, internalized shame, low self-worth, unstable relationships, depression, anxiety, bipolar experiences, OCD, body image concern, BPD, and more—

Your pain, your fears, your anger—even your hate, whether directed at others or at yourself—deserves to be heard and held with compassion. These are parts of you, and they matter. You matter. Healing begins when your truth has space to exist.
Get the courage to be yourself. Let's bring a revolution to the world—together.
