Somatic Therapy
Alexis Banyai
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, and patterns rooted in past experiences. Many of my clients struggle with feeling constantly on edge, disconnected from themselves or others, or caught in cycles of self-criticism, people-pleasing, or emotional reactivity. I have a particular interest in supporting individuals who want to better understand their nervous system responses, build emotional regulation, and develop a more compassionate relationship with themselves. Clients work with me because they want therapy to feel safe, warm, and collaborative. I work from a person-centred, trauma-informed approach, integrating mindfulness tools and practical coping skills. Sessions are guided by your needs and comfort level, allowing us to move at a pace that feels supportive and respectful.

Aliya Amarshi
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD (Sociology)
I offer warm, attuned, and inclusive online therapy for adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the complexities of identity, family, and work. My approach integrates Gestalt, IFS (parts work), and somatic strategies to support nervous system regulation and deeper self-understanding. I hold space for the full range of your experience—without judgment—and tailor our work to what feels most supportive and effective for you. Healing, to me, is not just personal—it’s also a step toward creating a more compassionate world.
