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.

Change, even when it’s chosen, can be disorienting. A move, a career shift, the end of a relationship, becoming a parent, or a loss can unsettle the way you see your life, your relationships, and yourself. From the outside, things might look the same, but internally, something has shifted. I work with adults navigating these in-between seasons who want to move beyond survival mode and feel more grounded in who they are becoming. Drawing on attachment and psychodynamic-informed approaches alongside Compassion-Focused Therapy, ACT, and DBT, we’ll make space for what’s ending, get curious about what matters to you now, and find a direction that feels like your own.

Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Life doesn't always unfold the way we expect. Whether you're navigating a separation or divorce, moving to a new community, entering a different stage of life, becoming a parent, or adjusting to changing family relationships, major transitions can leave you feeling uncertain about who you are and what comes next. Even positive changes can bring unexpected feelings of anxiety, sadness, confusion, or loss.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I offer compassionate, affordable counselling to help adolescents and adults navigate life's transitions with greater confidence, clarity, and emotional resilience. My experience in community mental health, family support, and counselling has taught me that change often involves more than adjusting to new circumstances. It can also mean redefining our identity, reassessing our priorities, and discovering what truly matters to us.
My approach combines person-centred counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and trauma-informed principles to help you process difficult emotions, explore uncertainty, and develop practical strategies for adapting to change. Together, we can identify your strengths, strengthen your coping skills, and create meaningful goals that reflect the person you're becoming.
I also recognize that cultural expectations, family responsibilities, and personal values can make life transitions particularly complex. Whether you're navigating intergenerational differences, adjusting to a new cultural environment, or balancing your own aspirations with the needs of others, my culturally responsive approach provides space to explore these challenges without judgment.
You don't need to have your future figured out before taking the next step. Sometimes, the most meaningful growth begins with giving yourself permission to explore new possibilities.
I offer affordable counselling in English and Farsi and would welcome the opportunity to support you through life's changes as you build greater self-understanding, confidence, and hope for the future.
