Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Healing is not a linear path — it’s a creative, embodied unfolding. As an Expressive Arts and Somatic Therapist, I offer a space where movement, image, sound, and story come together to help you reconnect with your body’s wisdom and your inner voice. Through gentle curiosity and creative exploration, we work to release what has been held, rediscover your resilience, and move toward a greater sense of aliveness and wholeness.
Whether you are navigating stress, trauma, transitions, or simply longing to feel more connected to yourself, our sessions invite you to listen deeply — not just with your mind, but with your whole being.

Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
Access to therapy is vital, and online options provide an invaluable way to provide counselling services to people who may otherwise be unable to access them. I use a secure Jane video program that allows us to see each other as if we were face-to-face.

Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
I deeply enjoy offering psychotherapy because it provides a powerful and accessible medium, where we can share and uncover, allowing me to assist people to live a meaningful and fulfilling life with with joy, resilience and growth. It’s an incredible privilege to create a safe and compassionate space where someone feels seen, heard and understood, often for the first time. Being part of a journey where individuals uncover their inner strengths, navigate challenges and gain a deeper understanding of themselves, reduce their symptoms and address problems is profoundly rewarding. I have 25 years of experience in psychotherapy (with PhD) and my approach is built on gentleness, openness, acceptance and curiosity, and together we find ways to disentangle, understand, manage, and change unhelpful patterns, overwhelming feelings, challenging conditions, or past experiences that can hold us entrapped. I recommend an initial consultation to get to know each other. I pursue a multimodal therapy approach and have extensive knowledge in dealing with psychological, social, relational, family and professional problems. My specialisations include, among others:
• Stress management, coping strategies and burnout prevention
• Reactions to any stress, including relational, social, familial, personal and professional
• Anxiety disorders and related symptoms
• Depressions and related challenges around mood
• Challenges in professional life, especially during career changes and in leadership positions
• Adjustment disorders, losses, separation, trauma and other life changes
• Problems in interpersonal relationships, partner and family challenges
I prefer to work in an active and collaborative way. Together we find ways to understand and change some aspects in your life, in sustainable ways. Please feel free to reach out and write to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
I work with adults who feel stuck in patterns shaped by complex trauma and early relationships. This may show up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or relationship cycles that are hard to change.
Together, we explore what’s underneath these patterns, helping you develop greater clarity, stability, and a more compassionate relationship with yourself and others.

Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
I offer online therapy to make it easier for you to look after your mental well-being and access support according to your needs from the comfort of your own home or office. I offer flexibility for scheduling and individual preferences. Initially, opening up to someone new can be difficult, so I offer options for hybrid online and in-person sessions if you feel you prefer to switch from online to in-person therapy or vice versa. Our online platform is secure and easy to use. Contact me via online message, phone, or email to book a session so you can prioritize your mental health in the midst of a busy, chaotic schedule.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RPQ, BA, LLB, CSAT, CPTT
Has someone close to you caused you harm? Whether it was a partner, spouse, or someone you loved and trusted, the betrayal can leave you feeling shocked, heartbroken, and unsteady. It may feel as though the ground has shifted beneath you, leading you to question what you once felt certain about. Emotions often come in waves - anger, grief, fear, confusion, or numbness - and carrying all of this can feel overwhelming. These responses are natural, and it’s okay if you’re feeling lost right now. My role is to support you in understanding what has happened and start finding steadier ground again.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
You're doing everything right — and somehow still feel like you're drowning.
Work. Kids. Relationships. The endless list of things that need you. On the outside, you're holding it together. But inside, you're exhausted, anxious, and quietly wondering when it gets to be your turn.
You don't need someone to tell you to breathe more or journal your feelings. You need someone who actually gets it — and helps you figure out why you keep ending up here, and how to stop.
I draw from ACT, DBT-informed skills, and Solution-Focused approaches — grounded, practical, and at a pace that works for you.
Virtual sessions available across Ontario. In-person in Toronto. Free 15-minute consultation — reach out to start.

Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you tend to replay past events in your mind over and over, and spiral into worries about the future? Do you struggle with boundaries, people-pleasing, or relationships, causing you to "overgive" to others while abandoning your own needs? Many people describe feeling like they’re moving through life on autopilot — weighed down by overthinking, low mood, or the pressure to keep everyone else happy. You might notice people-pleasing tendencies, difficulty maintaining boundaries, or a pattern of overgiving that leaves you drained, ungrounded, and disconnected from yourself. ____________ Here, you’ll find a warm, calm space where your feelings are validated and your voice genuinely matters. Together, we’ll engage in meaningful, deep processing work, explore what's fuelling your distress, and gently uncover the deeper experiences and patterns shaping your emotional world. Alongside this, we’ll build practical tools to regulate your nervous system and ease your symptoms in the present, helping you reconnect with a more empowered, resilient, and self-aware version of yourself. I bring the richness of three cultures, four languages, and the lived experience of being both a first- and third-generation immigrant. My background in the medical field also allows me to integrate physiological and psychological insight. These parts of who I am allow me to deeply empathize with the immigrant journey across generations, as well as the ways culture, family expectations, and identity can shape mental health. No matter your background or story, I aim to meet you with genuine understanding, respect, and compassion. I am a proud ally to LGBTQIA2S+ and BIPOC communities and offer inclusive, compassionate care for all backgrounds and lived experiences. If what I’ve shared resonates, we may be a good fit. If you're curious about working together, let's start with a free, no-pressure 30-min video consultation, where we can connect and chat in a calm, relaxed space.
