*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENT'S* I am so glad you are here and putting forth your needs first or maybe you are here because your friend or family member needs support or you are just tired of feeling this ‘Numb’ feeling and you want some answers as to “Why are you feeling this way? or asking yourself “Why don’t I feel happy or sad anymore?”, “Why am I like this?”, What is wrong with me? If I have made you question yourself right now then you are in the right place with the right person. As your therapist, I will help you explore all these feelings.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., CSAT
We all know what it feels like to experience overwhelm - when life just seems to get out of control. As individuals, we develop our own coping mechanisms to help us get through these difficult times. Things that where helpful at one point, often stop serving us in the long run. If you feel tired of what feels like an uphill battle, it might be worthwhile to consider how therapy can help you. This journey is is not easy, but it can be tremendously rewarding in the long run. Together, we can work on understanding how past experiences have shaped you into the person that you are today and how you can move forward with developing a greater sense of connection to yourself.

Ashley Ferraccioli
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)/Intern Therapist
Life can be unpredictable and can present challenging experiences that are hard to navigate on our own. During these times, we can feel overwhelmed, especially if we experience high levels of stress or anxiety, struggle in managing emotions, or have experienced traumatic events in our life. Sometimes, we get so caught up in our negative thoughts that it can be hard to overtake them, and it may even feel impossible to stop them. They may even start interfering with your everyday life and you may lose sight of who you are.
I am passionate about helping people overcome challenges in their life, no matter what stage. I aim to support you by creating a calm and safe space where you can freely express yourself. Working collaboratively, I am committed to helping you explore and work through the challenges in your life.
I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we are a good fit. Please feel free to reach out – I am here to help! I look forward to beginning this journey with you.

I truly believe that each and every one of us holds the strength to transform ourselves and our lives in a meaningful way - sometimes, we just need a little support to get there. Specializing in anxiety, eating disorders, body image, depression, self-esteem, and grief/ loss, my approach is client centred - recognizing that through the challenges, experiences, and traits that make us who we are, we deserve therapy that is unique to us.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I recognize that starting therapy is not always the easiest choice; I'd like to acknowledge the courageous step you are taking to begin your journey. In our space together I will honour this strength and meet you where you’re at. My approach to therapy is to understand that you are the expert of your own life and you deserve an individualized treatment plan based on your unique needs, experiences, strengths and goals. There is no-one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, and as such, we will work together to understand what is needed in our space together to best support you. Together, we will work to establish goals, build resiliency and self-compassion, and identify effective coping skills and self-care tools.
I offer support to adolescents (13+) and adults experiencing issues related to anxiety, stress, depression, relationship concerns, trauma, grief, life transitions and self-esteem.
I would be honoured to be part of your therapy journey and I look forward to creating a safe space with you where you are offered the compassion and validation needed for processing, healing and growth.
