Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you constantly feel on edge or overwhelmed? Many of us grow up learning to push down our thoughts and feelings. We may have been told our anger is unacceptable, sadness is a weakness, or vulnerability should be avoided. However, these emotions are natural and valuable to personal growth and self-understanding. It is what we do with these feelings when they show up that makes all the difference. Together, we can process your experiences with the intention, so you can be more in control and feel lighter. You feel things deeply for a reason, let’s explore why and what now.

Are you looking for a trauma therapist in Ontario or an experienced anxiety therapist who understands how overwhelming life can feel?

Alexis Bergeron, MSW, BSW, is a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist providing virtual therapy across Ontario for teens (12+) and adults. She specializes in helping people recover from trauma, PTSD, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions using evidence-based therapy tailored to each client's unique needs.
Alexis believes healing begins with feeling safe. Therapy isn't about being told what to do- it's about working together to understand your experiences, calm your nervous system, develop practical coping skills, and build a life that feels meaningful again. Whether you've experienced a single traumatic event, childhood trauma, ongoing stress, or simply feel exhausted by anxiety, Alexis provides a compassionate, supportive space where lasting change can happen.
Alexis holds both a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Windsor. She has over six years of experience supporting individuals through mental health challenges in community mental health, eating disorder treatment, bereavement and hospice care, long-term care, and private practice.
She has completed advanced training in several evidence-based therapies, including:

What Therapy May Look Like
Every person is different, which is why Alexis creates individualized treatment plans rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Sessions may include:

* Understanding how trauma affects the brain and nervous system
* Learning practical CBT strategies to change unhelpful thought patterns
* Building distress tolerance and emotion regulation using DBT skills
* Reducing anxiety and panic symptoms
* Increasing self-compassion and confidence
* Strengthening healthy relationships and boundaries
* Developing coping strategies you can use between sessions
Clients often describe Alexis as warm, approachable, genuine, and easy to talk to. She believes therapy should feel collaborative, not intimidating, and strives to create a space where clients feel understood without judgment.
Outside of work, Alexis enjoys spending time with her husband and two children, walking her dog, trying new recipes, and spending time outdoors. She understands the realities of balancing work, family, stress, and everyday life, and brings that understanding into her work with clients.

Michael Sa'd - Toronto Talk Therapy
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, CFST, MBA
Online therapy is often more convenient and offers the comfort of speaking with a therapist from your home. It has additionally made mental health services more accessible, especially to individuals for whom the need to attend appointments in person is a barrier to getting support.
Online therapy might be the best fit for you if:
- You have a hectic schedule and limited time
- You live in a remote area and access to service is limited
- You are seeking couple or family therapy and your partner or family member/s who are in different locations
- You have physical limitations or mobility issues that prevent you from getting support in person
- You feel uncomfortable for any reason in a traditional face-to-face therapy setting
- To avoid leaving your home during a public health crisis (e.g., COVID-19)
In my practice, I use “Jane” and with its secure and private video conferencing platform that is both Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA) and Personal Information Protection and Electronic Document Act (PIPEDIA) compliant.

Kristen See
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
I am a relaxed and relatable psychotherapist who specializes in BPD, ADHD, PMDD, and trauma. Often my clients struggle with emotion regulation, impulse control, perfectionism, procrastination, relationship conflict, frequent episodes of burn out, deep feelings of anger and/or shame, body image, and chronic health conditions like PMOS (formally PCOS) or perimenopause.
I'm trained in a variety of evidence-based techniques, including CBT, DBT, and ACT. I also draw inspiration from emotion-focused therapy, somatic practices, mindfulness, and inner child / "parts" work.
I'm passionate about education and believe that knowledge is power; I'm always keen to provide psychoeducation and help women not only understand their brains, bodies, and hormones, but also learn how to self-advocate at work, in healthcare and beyond.

Dr. Justin Dubé
Psychologist, Ph.D, C.Psych
I appreciate that change is hard. Therapy––learning alternate coping skills, trying new behaviours, and facing your fears–can often feel uncomfortable. To make the hard work of therapy worthwhile, I will collaborate with you to uncover what makes your unique life meaningful. We will examine barriers to your meaningful life and develop a plan to overcome them.

Ivana Stanic Counselling & Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, RSW, MSW
Are you and your partner caught in the same arguments, feeling disconnected, reactive, or emotionally shut down? Or maybe you’re noticing these patterns within yourself. Small disagreements may escalate quickly, one partner may withdraw while the other pursues, or you may feel anxious, overwhelmed, or alone even within relationships that matter deeply to you. Often, trauma and attachment wounds shape the way we experience conflict, closeness, and emotional safety. Together, we work to slow these cycles, better understand what’s underneath them, and build healthier communication, emotional regulation, and more secure connection.
