Theresa Rybchinski
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Sensorimotor Psychotherapist, SP
I understand how overwhelming it can be when traditional therapy doesn’t fully help you. My approach focuses on helping you reconnect with yourself in a safe and empowering way.
For over ten years, I have studied how stress and trauma affect the nervous system. I find ways to restore balance and ease. I know healing is not the same for everyone. I work with each person to create a personalized, body-based approach that helps change survival patterns into thriving ones.
I believe you are not your trauma, anxiety, or pain. You have a strong ability to heal. My role is to help you tap into that ability, break old patterns, and build a life where you feel more at home in your body and more connected to yourself.
If you are ready to explore a new way of healing that honors your body, mind, and nervous system, I would love to support you on this journey. I offer a complimentary 15 minute consultation call to see if I am a good fit for you.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
When everything looks right but something still feels off, somatic, trauma-focused therapy is where the work begins.
You already recognize the pattern. Understanding it hasn't closed the gap between knowing and feeling, because the real shift happens in the body, not the story.
Maybe you've done therapy already, and you still don't have what you came for: the ability to make a decision without arguing with yourself, to feel present in your own life, to sleep without your mind still running.
What this supports, over time, is a slow and gentle return to aliveness.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
I am a trauma-informed, somatic, intuitive therapist supporting women, individuals, and couples - who are seeking deeper, root-cause healing for emotional, relational, and spiritual concerns. I often work with highly sensitive, empathic, intuitive, or neurodivergent clients, including mothers, caregivers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and professionals in helping roles, demanding careers, or leadership positions. Many of my clients are navigating life transitions, spiritual exploration, or periods of personal transformation. My approach integrates somatic work, compassionate and empowering talk therapy, nervous system healing, inner child work, energy healing, and more, to help you move beyond symptom relief toward greater inner safety, self-trust, and authenticity, and mind-body-spirit health and wellbeing.

Ramelle Masters
Psychologist, MACP, R. Psych
I operate from a client centred, trauma informed approach that is grounded in neurobiology. This means I honour each client as they show up in session and we unpack together how their traumatic experience may have formed who they are today. We spend time understanding how trauma impacts the brain and nervous system, not just how it shows up in behaviour. Through psychoeducation and experiential work, you'll learn how survival patterns form after traumatic experiences. Rather than only managing symptoms, we work at the root level - helping your brain and nervous system process and integrate what was overwhelming. Shifting what's happening on the inside facilitates lasting behavioural change and a more stables sense of self becomes possible.

Samuele Bariani
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP
Hi! My name is Samuele and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and Clinical Supervisor with The College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I am fluent in English and Italian and I can speak functional Spanish. With over 9 years of experience, I support individuals, couples, and families who are seeking meaningful change and healing in their lives. My work focuses on helping people navigate life’s challenges, reconnect with their strengths, and move toward a greater sense of peace and wholeness. Often, our journey toward healing begins when we pause to reflect on the experiences that have shaped us – especially the moments where we may have felt shame, alienation, or fragmentation. In therapy, we create space to gently explore these stories, fostering understanding, compassion, and the possibility for growth and transformation.
If you feel ready, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your healing journey.
I also provide supervision to therapists and students who are looking to strengthen their confidence and competence in their clinical work.
In my free time, I enjoy hiking, cooking, exploring the beauty of nature in every season, reading, travelling, and connecting with others.
