Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
As a neurodivergent clinician, I bring lived experience and a trauma-focused approach to supporting autistic people. Being autistic can shape how you experience and process emotions, navigate relationships, and understand your internal world. You may have spent years feeling misunderstood, masking, or navigating experiences that have taken an emotional toll. My approach draws on EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic approaches to help you process difficult experiences, work through trauma, and develop greater emotional regulation. Therapy is adapted to your needs, with the goal of helping you feel less burdened by difficult experiences, more emotionally regulated, and more at ease with yourself.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
As your counsellor, I will explore your experiences through a neurodivergent-affirming lens and do not believe you need “fixing” in any way. Rather, I believe you have unique gifts to bring to the world. I help clients unpack what it's like to be neurodivergent in a neuro-normative society and develop the confidence and skills needed to navigate future challenges successfully. I am passionate about empowering clients to step into the truth of who they are unapologetically and with self acceptance. I support clients struggling with emotional regulation, overstimulation, relationships, self worth, and processing experiences of going undiagnosed and/or being misdiagnosed during your formative years. I offer in-person, virtual or walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you—head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation.
