Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Our Virtual Reality Therapy makes use of VR headsets and software to allow clients to experience situations that are related to their anxieties or fears virtually, such as fear of driving, fear of flying, social anxiety, specific phobias and obsessions, for the purpose of treatment.
We also utilize Psious@home, a new and simple solution for remotely accessing virtual reality therapy. The forced isolation due to the spread of COVID-19 is generating a situation of additional stress in most individuals. Psious@home not only provides a means of maintaining therapeutic progress, but also guidelines for overcoming the challenges of confinement.
Virtual reality is a complementary tool for traditional therapy, with its effectiveness supported by more than 25 years of scientific research. By allowing the therapist greater control and personalization than traditional methods such as imagined exposure, virtual reality facilitates faster progress through the immersion from the comfort of your home, to mitigate the effects of anxiety and stress.
Additionally, we provide telemedicine through Doxy.me, which is a secure online platform with video conferencing, and virtual waiting room features.

Repeating patterns in relationships, or the ongoing impact of (C-PTSD) childhood trauma, relationship or family dysfunction, addiction, PTSD & accumulative occupational trauma exposure can feel overwhelming, confusing, & exhausting.
I offer a safe, compassionate space to explore your story, reconnect to your sense of self, & work towards emotional processing. Together, we can make sense of your experiences, support your nervous system, cultivate self-compassion and create meaningful shifts.
Psychodynamic therapy is a thoughtful, relational approach to understanding how your . experiences shape how you feel, think, & relate today. We explore internal patterns, relational wounds, & long-standing defences. This can foster deep emotional understanding & healing, helping build more secure, fulfilling relationships with yourself, others and the world
I have additional training in support trauma exposed professionals, relational trauma repair, men, those coping with addiction and family members.
Having been an educator for 20 years, I have a special interest in working with education staff as well.
My approach is trauma-informed & grounded in respect for your inner knowing, honouring your nervous system & understanding your protective patterns. In honest reflection we begin to understand internalized patterns, heal emotional wounds, and foster change.

Ekaterina Kapoustina
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
You tend to keep things in. You’re independent, thoughtful, and often the one others lean on—but when it comes to expressing your own needs, it can feel unclear or uncomfortable. In emotionally nuanced relationships, you might find yourself pulling away just when closeness starts to matter most. I work with partners navigating these push-pull dynamics, including those exploring consensual non-monogamy or who often take on the steady, supportive role in their relationships or work roles. Our sessions are a space to slow down, reflect, and connect. We’ll work together to create a rhythm that feels steady and manageable for you—one that makes room for curiosity and clarity on how your past has influenced how your show up in relationships. If you're looking to increase emotional intimacy, work through a betrayal or create relationship agreements - book a free consultation today by visiting my website!

John Harrison, CFIR St Catharines
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD
Welcome, I’m glad you’re here. If you are reading this, you are considering making a change in your life by looking for a therapist. Change can be scary. I want to celebrate your strength that brought you to this powerful, and perhaps daunting, first step on your path to self-discovery and growth. Whatever pain and suffering you have endured; you no longer have to face alone. I want to honor and respect your courage by committing to co-creating and nurturing a non-judgemental space where you feel physically and psychologically safe, seen, and valued. When we have built a trusting relationship, we can begin to explore the patterns of emotions, thoughts, and behaviours that are negatively impacting your life. In my collaborative approach to therapy, you are the expert on your life; my role, through my knowledge of therapeutic processes and interventions, is to support, encourage, and travel alongside you on your journey.
