Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy Inc.
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
They say our greatest weakness lies in giving up! We have all been there. I decided that if life was going to be difficult, I would become its greatest “warrior” and teach others to do the same. Too often we use our armour to hide our inner selves, rather than see it as our strength which only comes from taking a risk, facing our fears, taking a step forward, and learning that every battle is won with wisdom. I am here to empower you to take that chance on yourself — your mind is a powerful force, but you are its master.
Through various forms of therapy, one can explore different perspectives, coping skills, and motivators to establish better relationships; self-esteem and self-direction; deal with complicated family or couple dynamics; face a significant crisis or transition; manage substance use or addiction; and collaboratively make cognitive and behavioral changes to better emotional, mental, and even physical health!

Shasha Weir
Counsellor/Therapist, RSSW
Healing is a journey that should be nurturing, safe, and empowering. Oftentimes, you may feel helpless, hopeless, and stuck in a place that you cannot escape from. With all the unmanageable emotions, fears, and thoughts that play in your mind over and over, it may seem as though there is no end and no relief. Therapy will allow you to navigate, understand and provide clarity that leads to peace of mind and optimal living.
I believe in a client-centered, partnership, and holistic approach to healing, utilizing and maximizing your own strengths, and using that to attain treatment goals. I specialize in children, youth, individual, family, and couples therapy. Working together as a team, we will focus on you the client, in healing the mind, body, and soul.
Asking for help is not easy. However, I'm glad you are here! It takes courage, vulnerability, and strength; all needed for a successful therapeutic journey. Book a connection session today! During this call, we will get to know each other and figure out if we are a good fit before moving forward. Let's take this healing journey together.

Josh Sebastian
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker
Hi there! My name is Josh, and I am a Registered Social Worker. Beyond my role as a social worker, I am also a son of South Indian immigrant parents and am continuously growing in this role of finding space to honour my culture in our Western society. Through this, I have come to value community, vulnerability, respect, and authenticity, and strive to be a forever learner to encourage both personal and professional growth. I provide both in-person and virtual therapy and am based in Burlington. Whether we meet online or in person, I promise to create a non-judgemental and safe environment where we meet, reflect, unpack, and move forward together. I do not believe there is a “one size fits all” method and take the first few sessions to get to know you and tailor my approach to fit your needs.

Dr. Joan Samuel-Dennis
Registered Psychotherapist
Most people come to therapy for 2 reasons: First, whether they are conscious of it or not, they feel unsafe. Second, this lack of safety, forces them to act in ways that create disharmony and conflict with the people they value and love the most.
At the Becoming Institute, we know SAFE therapy works by the 37 rule. A safe therapist knows that traumatic responses like depression, anxiety, PTSD, burnout, anger, and interpersonal conflict require a holistic and multi-phased approach that attends to your unique mind-body-spirit response to 3 significant moments in your life. In just 3 sessions, we will end your pain and ensure you feel safe again. In 7 sessions, we will give you the tools and the insights to bring every relationship into a stage of peace and harmony. Our commitment to your success is unwavering. We guarantee a 100% client success rate, or your therapy is on us.
We specialize in quickly resolving depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other traumatic responses. Our therapists have been trained a highly effective technique that combines a powerful forgiveness process with 8 other psycho-therapeutic modalities. Our 5-step process regulates your nervous system and creates a strong sense of safety and belonging.
This is what one of our client Naomi had to say. "From the very first session, we delved right in. In just 90 minutes of the Becoming Method, I gained more self-awareness than in 18 months of weekly therapy with four previous counsellors." If you're yearning for a happy, healthy life, take the first step now—reach out for a free 30-minute consultation. https:calendly.comjsdennis2000the-mindful-fitness-program

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
Our passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, angry or irritable. Are you experiencing relational difficulties or frustrations, and do you feel triggered by important others in your life? Do you sometimes find it difficult to identify or articulate your feelings? Do you cope with your feelings by avoiding them or shutting down? Do you sometimes 'people please', or feel driven to achieve to feel a sense of self-worth and safety, or to escape your feelings? Are you ready to get to the bottom of things? If you are interested in self-exploration, coping better, managing anxiety, perfectionism, trauma or depression, I can help. I understand the courage it takes to reach out for help, and how life can open up when you do. Our team strives to provide relevant, responsive and collaborative therapy by prioritizing rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties, even though some days it can feel that way; and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. We use an eclectic approach, drawing on numerous approaches including Emotion-Focused, Cognitive Behavioural/Acceptance and Commitment, Dialectical Behavioural, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, Family Systems, Polyvagal theory, Solution-Focused and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing to tailor therapy to you. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life.
Please note that at the moment, I am seeing all clients virtually.
