Life Transitions
Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
I provide comprehensive counselling support for individuals navigating a wide range of personal, emotional, and situational challenges. Life transitions can be difficult and it's so valuable having support in place. My practice specializes in helping clients manage the pressures of perfectionism, high-achievement, and burnout, while offering dedicated space for navigating men’s issues, women’s issues (including perimenopause), and the unique complexities of ADHD or neurodivergence. I offer compassionate guidance for those experiencing mild depression, anxiety, low mood, or profound loneliness, helping you build self-compassion and emotional regulation strategies. Additionally, I support individuals walking through major life disruptions and hardships, including life or career transitions, divorce and relationship strain, grief, and loss of direction. No matter the challenge, my goal is to help you slow down, understand your patterns, and build a more intentional, resilient path forward.

Life Transitions
Anna Vaisser Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, MEd, RCC
Life transitions—whether chosen or unexpected—can stir uncertainty, grief, anxiety, or a sense of losing your footing. I help clients navigate these periods with steadiness and self‑compassion, using a blend of somatic awareness, mindfulness, parts work, CBT, and narrative exploration. Together, we slow down, make sense of what’s shifting, and support your nervous system in finding regulation during change. My aim is to help you stay connected to yourself, make sense of the change, clarify what matters, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Life Transitions
Fiona Matalon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Transitions can unsettle the identities, relationships, and ways of living that once made sense. Even a change we have chosen can bring uncertainty, grief, or disorientation. Therapy can offer space to listen more closely to what is ending, what is emerging, and how you want to meet the life that is taking shape.

Life Transitions
Sam Duran
Counsellor/Therapist, MAMFT, RCC, EMDR-Trained
Significant life changes can bring uncertainty, stress, and difficult decisions, even when the change itself is expected. Changes involving marriage, family, career, relocation, immigration, loss, or other major circumstances can affect your sense of stability and direction. Counselling can help you work through these challenges, clarify what matters to you, and approach the next chapter of life with greater confidence and purpose.

Life Transitions
Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
Life transitions, whether welcome or unwanted, have a way of arriving with a sense of velocity that can feel disorienting, anxiety-inducing, and isolating, and at Nightingale Counselling we specialize in meeting clients exactly where they are and helping them move forward with clarity and confidence. Our therapists draw from a range of evidence-based modalities including cognitive behavioural therapy, emotionally focused therapy, and narrative therapy, tailoring the approach to the specific nature of the transition each client is navigating. Perhaps most importantly, counselling offers something that life transitions rarely allow for on their own: the chance to pause, reflect, and reconnect with your values and strengths before taking your next steps forward.
