Daniela Papgis
Psychologist, MA, HPCSA - Couns. Psych.
Every person carries a unique story—experiences that shape who they are and how they navigate the world. Sometimes, the weight of these stories can hold us back from becoming our best selves. In my work as a psychologist, I am deeply committed to helping individuals confront and understand these difficult emotions, thoughts and behaviours.

Life can be difficult, and at times we find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about how to move forward. Therapy offers a space to pause, reflect, and better understand yourself within the context of your relationships, life experiences, and emotional world. My aim is to create a therapeutic relationship that is thoughtful, emotionally safe, authentic, and deeply human, a space where insight, growth, and meaningful change can emerge.

If you're lying awake wondering whether you and your partner can find your way back to each other, this might be for you. Many of the couples who reach out to me say some version of the same thing. "He does not speak to me." "She is very emotional." "We are stuck in the same fight." "I am tired." "I feel judged." "I am doing a lot." You might be the one who brings things up and gets met with silence. Or the one who feels everything so intensely that it scares their partner off. You argue about the same thing, in different words, over and over. You still love each other, but you're exhausted by each other, too.

“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending” (C.S Lewis) To reach out to a psychologist might feel scary and overwhelming but it might also be one of the bravest things you can do! I am willing to take your hand through your difficulty, and allow you space to talk, to be, to vent and to ask the questions you are so afraid to answer alone. Sometimes therapy can be challenging, maybe overwhelming and at times difficult, but you are not alone and in the end I hope that you can say “it was worth it all”. May this be a meaningful experience for you.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
