I have a deep affinity with this struggle in life, having been naturally drawn to people who have had these traumatic experiences. Find compassion for the self, and forgiveness for your abusers. I also understand that PTSD that past traumas can create for the survivor of childhood trauma.

Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Being a teenager today comes with unique pressures. Between academic expectations, friendships, social media, family relationships, and figuring out who you are, adolescence can sometimes feel overwhelming. You may struggle with anxiety, low self-esteem, emotional ups and downs, peer pressure, or feeling misunderstood by the adults around you. As a parent, you might notice your teenager withdrawing, becoming increasingly frustrated, or having difficulty expressing what they're experiencing.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I offer compassionate, affordable counselling specifically for adolescents and teens navigating the emotional, social, and developmental challenges of growing up. My experience in educational settings, community mental health, and youth support has given me an appreciation for the importance of building trust, respecting individuality, and creating environments where young people feel safe expressing themselves.
My approach combines person-centred counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and trauma-informed principles to help teenagers better understand their emotions, develop healthier coping strategies, strengthen self-confidence, and navigate relationships with greater awareness and resilience.
I also recognize that adolescence often involves balancing growing independence with family expectations, cultural values, and the desire to belong. As a culturally responsive counsellor offering services in English and Farsi, I strive to create a supportive space where teenagers can explore their identities, express their concerns, and feel respected without fear of judgment.
Whether you're a teenager looking for someone who will genuinely listen or a parent concerned about your adolescent's emotional well-being, I would welcome the opportunity to help. Together, we can work toward building confidence, improving communication, and developing the skills needed to navigate adolescence with greater emotional balance and self-understanding.
