Life can sometimes become overwhelming and people can benefit from a safe, open space to share their stories and receive support. Counselling and psychotherapy are services delivered through a therapeutic relationship with someone who is trained to support others. Some benefits to engaging in counselling and psychotherapy are: finding ways to solve problems, improving your self-esteem, practicing new and more positive behaviours, learning to manage emotions from stressors, developing a greater degree of self-awareness, learning to love and accept yourself, and improving your overall well-being.

I have helped numerous individuals, couples and families overcome emotional and behavioural difficulties as well as promote happier, healthier living: Self Esteem, Life Transitions, Grief and Loss, Addiction, Sex Therapy, Coping Skills, Stress Management, Depression, Peer Relationships, Relationship Issues, Trauma and PTSD, Substance Use, Anxiety Disorders, Internet Addiction, Eating Disorders, Suicidal Ideation , Drug Abuse, Anger Management, Family Conflict - Mediation & Communication, Mood Disorders, Career Guidance, Alcohol Use, Anxiety, PTSD, Divorce, Antisocial Personality, OCD, Life Coaching, Men's Issues.

At CPYC, we offer individual, couple, parent, family, and group therapy grounded in trauma and neurobiologically informed relational psychotherapeutic theories.

Do you feel like life is chaos and you’re all alone? Like none of your relationships are working out and that there’s always a crisis to address? Maybe you’ve been told you’re too much or too sensitive and that you need to get over things that have happened to you in the past. Whether you have been diagnosed with BPD, CPTSD, PTSD, or are struggling with feeling chronically suicidal , managing you addiction, or feel emotionally out of control, HopeStart Therapy is dedicated to validating and supporting individuals to address these experiences, figure out what’s going on, and find practical skills to grow into living the life you want.

Mental health is nested within a network of relationships and our past experience. In therapy, we work together to untangle these networks to build awareness and form new and useful strategies that serve you and your loved ones. I work with youth and adults managing low mood/self-esteem, depression/ suicide , anxiety, ADHD, eating and body image concerns, relationship difficulties (family, romantic etc.), grief, and day to day stressors. I work under consultation of a clinical psychologist which provides easy access to clinical assessments and diagnoses (e.g., OCD, ADHD).

I am a registered social worker with the OCSWSSW as well as OASW. I have a Masters of Social Work and I have over 12 years experience working in diverse settings such as hospitals, mental health agencies, non-profit organizations as well as the private sector. In my work, I support adults and youth who have experienced or are experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, confusion, anger management issues, suicidal ideation , relationship conflicts, difficulty in communication, grief, low self-esteem and self-confidence, and domestic violence.

As a Registered Social Worker, I work with the Black youth population across the GTA, providing support in the areas of anxiety, depression, identity and belonging, community engagement, wellness, education, and spirituality. I work with youth to help them better understand their lived experiences, process their thoughts and emotions and work through the process of healing. I practice from a collaborative, person-centered and strength-based approach as I work with youth to establish their goals and reach their full potential.

I would be most helpful to clients who may be struggling at school (K-university), have ADHD or symptoms of inattention/hyperactivity/impulsivity, deal with emotional and behavioural disturbance, suicidal thoughts, or self-harm, have social interaction difficulties, deal with low self-esteem, have chronic illnesses or pains (this only for up to 18 years old), or struggle with adjustment to a new situation, whether it is a regular stage of life (e.g., moving out of house to a university, parenthood) or tragic life changes (e.g., grief, loss of loved ones). Consultation with schools is my specialty as well.

I support persons who are navigating a variety of life stressors. I have a working knowledge of the social and community systems that persons I serve often intersect with (ie. education, family law, criminal law, hospitals, children's aid) and work collaboratively with people to find their voice, engage in self care and advocacy in a concerted effort to invite optimal outcomes.

For many of us, it’s easy to allow our mental health to take a backseat in our everyday lives. We may rely on distractions but we know that it’s time to look for support that will lead us into maintaining a healthier relationship with our mental health. I work with adults and children 9 and up who are seeking treatment in family conflict, anger management, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideations, self-esteem, school-related issues and women’s issues. As a Registered Psychotherapist, my hope is to support clients who are looking to address these matters in a safe and stigma-free zone.

I believe it takes a great deal of courage and self-regard for someone to say they need help and reaching out is a powerful (albeit terrifying) first step towards positive change. I understand addressing personal concerns is not a perfect process and will include setbacks, but healing through past/present issues is like writing a book: you have to go through a few drafts before you're satisfied with the result. My approach is to meet you in your current stage of life and help identify personal strengths you can use as needed. You can expect a warm, empathetic approach with questions and comments about the present issue.

Become the best version of You! The goal at SOS Psychotherapy is to help you move from your pain and step into your possibilities. Opening up about trauma, mental health, stress and the suicidal mind is not yet widely accepted, making it more difficult to seek help and support when it is most critical to your wellbeing. This is what Sajel is best known for…her expertise, human connection and comfortable conversation! With guided practice with evidence-based tools, learn how to gain perspective, leverage your pain points and move towards your preferred possibilities. You have found a Safe Space...take the next step.
