Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Dvorkin, MPsy, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying),
As a dedicated psychotherapist, I specialize in providing compassionate support and guidance to individuals living with HIV/AIDS. I understand the unique challenges and emotional complexities that come with this diagnosis, and I am committed to helping my clients navigate the physical, psychological, and social aspects of their journey. With a deep understanding of the stigma, fear, and isolation often associated with HIV/AIDS, I create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their emotions, fears, and hopes. Together, we work collaboratively to address issues such as disclosure, self-esteem, coping with medication, managing relationships, and navigating the healthcare system. Utilizing evidence-based therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness techniques, I help my clients develop effective strategies to cope with the challenges of living with HIV/AIDS. I also provide support in addressing emotional distress, depression, anxiety, and any other mental health concerns that may arise. Through our therapeutic relationship, I aim to empower individuals to enhance their overall well-being, build resilience, and find a sense of purpose and meaning in their lives beyond their diagnosis. My ultimate goal is to help my clients embrace their strengths, foster a sense of self-acceptance, and live fulfilling and empowered lives, breaking free from the limitations and stigma often associated with HIV/AIDS.

Centre for Psychology and Emotional Health
Psychologist
On our team is Carmine who was an activist, advocate, outreach worker, and counsellor in the LGBTQ communities in Milano and in Toronto. He has experience working with individuals struggling with issues around coming out, body image and disordered eating, exploring their gender identity or sexual orientation, or newly diagnosed with HIV. He has also worked with couples navigating the complexity of same sex relationships.
In addition our team includes Bill who led a randomized-controlled trial of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for gay men living with HIV that was the first to indicate psychological improvements for mindfulness in this population. This study inspired him to explore integrating self-compassion more deeply into mindfulness-based interventions to better address harsh self-criticism, shame and inter-personal injuries, leading him to develop EFMT.

You don't have to walk this alone. Whether you've lost someone to death, a relationship that ended, a future that won't happen, or a version of yourself you'll never get back, I'll sit with you in the pain without rushing you toward acceptance or closure. Together, we'll honor what you've lost, make space for the complex emotions grief brings, and gently help you rediscover who you are now. Healing doesn't mean forgetting—it means learning to carry loss without it crushing you. I'll support every step forward.

HIV/AIDS
Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is more than just a virus; it's a challenge that many individuals face in their lives. It specifically targets CD4 cells, which play a vital role in maintaining a healthy immune system. When HIV is left untreated, it can progress to AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome), a condition that severely weakens the immune system, leaving the body susceptible to various infections and illnesses.
The reality of living with HIV can be daunting, especially considering its modes of transmission—primarily through unprotected sexual contact, sharing needles, or from mother to child during childbirth or breastfeeding. However, it's important to remember that with today's advancements in medical care, particularly with antiretroviral therapy (ART), many people living with HIV can lead long and fulfilling lives.
Early diagnosis and consistent treatment can keep the virus under control, preventing the progression to AIDS and significantly lowering the risk of transmission to others. This journey, while challenging, is made easier through education and understanding, which are crucial in breaking down the stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS. By fostering open conversations about this virus, we can promote safe practices, encourage testing, and support those affected, helping to create a more compassionate and informed community.

Kai Smith - Talk with Kai - Intimacy and Identity
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Qualifying)
An HIV diagnosis lands differently for everyone, and the emotional weight of it rarely gets the same attention as the medical side. I work with clients navigating disclosure, stigma, grief, changes in intimacy, and the particular isolation that can come with carrying something most people in your life don't fully understand. You don't have to educate me before we can get to work.
