I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the CRPO (008887). Explore your relationships and sexuality in a space free of judgement. I take a non-pathologizing, non-judgmental, holistic approach to sex counselling and sex therapy. I provide sex therapy and sex counselling for individuals or within relationship counselling or couples therapy that incorporates an understanding of how our sexuality is shaped by the relationship between the mind, body, spirit, and larger society. I believe there are limitless ways to live a pleasurable life when practiced in a compassionate, caring, consensual environment with or without sex.

In my years of practice, my focus has been centred around individuals from different walks of life (i.e race, religion, gender, sexual orientation etc). Particularly, ones who have trauma, body image issues, low self esteem, fibromyalgia, phobias and/or are anxious, depressed, stressed, destructive, angry, lonely, abused and in or have been in the child welfare system. In regards to my approach, I am genuine and compassionate, but remain equally honest and direct. Rather than bombarding clients with endless questions, I aim to engage them through meaningful methods and effective interventions.

We are a team of mental health professionals supporting individuals and couples. We have expertise in working with clients who struggle with interpersonal communication, assertiveness, and problematic emotions (e.g., anxiety, shame, anger) that impacts their self-worth, their ability to function, and their relationships. Some of our clinicians also have specialized training treating anxiety disorders (social anxiety, generalized anxiety, phobias, panic disorder, agoraphobia), obsessive-compulsive disorder, trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder and complex mental illness, as well as in rehabilitation psychology.

We all want to be understood. In fact, it's one of our primary needs.

I work with people who are undergoing any experience that might be called 'transformation.' Sometimes transformation is forced upon us by trauma, and sometimes we are called to it from within. Either way, it can be difficult to navigate alone. I can provide you with a compassionate space where you can process pain, come to understand your patterns, and grow into your truest self. By using a holistic approach that gets to the roots of deep issues, we will move at your own pace to uncover pathways toward healing. This involves understanding the past, exploring emotions in the here-and-now, and tapping into the body's wisdom.

Hello, my name is Ashtyn (they/them). I believe that everyone is resilient and has the ability to heal & grow. I take an empathetic and flexible approach in my therapeutic practice, in response to each person's own unique strengths & needs. I follow an anti oppressive, trauma-informed, holistic approach to healing. The therapeutic modalities I offer include: Art Therapy, IFS/Parts Work, Somatic Therapy, & Mindfulness. I often provide support to people experiencing PTSD/trauma related symptoms, Anxiety, Depression, Chronic Pain, Relationship Issues, Grief & Loss, Neurodiversity, and folks belonging to the LGBTQIA+ community.

With gentleness, curiosity and humour, I've walked with people at all ages and stages: facing mental illness or trauma, dealing with infertility or baby loss, embracing queer identity, wrestling with spirituality, living with disability. Your story is central, but talking isn't everything: some of our deepest wounds are held in realms beyond words. Because I often work with trauma and embodied pain, I use neurobiology-based somatic approaches. I use Internal Family Systems (inner parts work) and other approaches that engage clients’ creative, imaginative, and meditative sides in the service of healing.

I have always been a big advocate of jumping into action and finding ways to address problems through concrete, focused strategies. I also honour the important need to foster compassion, validation and understanding as a foundation with my clients before this occurs. I am available to help adults presenting with a broad array of mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, relationships and life purpose. I also have a specialized focus of helping clients with chronic pain, chronic illness and disability. I am honoured to take part in the change process with anyone who is open to doing deep personal work.

Feeling stuck or weighed down by anxiety or depression? Do you sometimes feel alone and as though everyone else seems to be doing better than you are? Perhaps you constantly worry about the future and wonder how you will manage, or frequently have the thought, “I am not good enough.” Are you feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope? I firmly believe that everyone deserves support when they are struggling and that no one should have to deal with such challenges on their own. I can help.

In our work together, the interpersonal perspective enables us to focus on the ways in which you have relations with yourself and with others. For some, the onset of an acute or chronic illness have shifted these relations, future goals and plans. Sometimes, the process of therapy involves learning to recognize behavioral patterns that evoke distress, or bring about unwanted outcomes. Through an atmosphere of support, you can carefully consider the decision to change, and efforts can be targeted towards building healthier, more effective patterns. Cognitive-behavioural strategies are integrated into sessions to facilitate change.

I will be there for you, to understand you and give you lots of room for whatever comes up. I work with people who have experienced trauma, pain, and are struggling to make meaning. If you wonder whether your therapist is going to be able to hold space for everything you're bringing, I'm a good fit for you. Whether it's anger, shame, hopelessness, thoughts of death, or things you never told anyone, I will be there and I can help you hold it. I believe in the inherent dignity of all people, and it shows. I am also solution-focused. We do not just sit with pain, we figure out how to make meaning together, so you can live well again.

I appreciate that asking for help and sharing lived experiences are whole-hearted actions. It is a privilege for me to provide individual therapy to adolescents and adults during times of great distress, change, and loss. Clients often describe a loss of meaning and purpose in their lives, overcome by confusing and messy emotions that sabotage their functioning. Some clients are acutely aware of their compromised quality of life whereas others would describe chronic life conditions. My areas of specialization include anxiety, psychological trauma, depression, grief and bereavement, terminal illness, and chronic illness.
