Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I specialize in supporting individuals navigating the complexities of personality disorders through an integrative, client-centered approach. I use parts work to explore and harmonize the different facets of your inner world, acceptance and commitment therapy to anchor you in values-driven living, and mindfulness-based techniques to enhance emotional regulation and self-awareness. I also draw on cognitive and emotion-focused strategies to challenge unhelpful patterns and process deep feelings, and incorporate spiritual/existential approaches when necessary to foster hope and connection. My goal is to provide a structured yet compassionate space where you can develop insight, build resilience, and move toward more balanced, fulfilling relationships with yourself and others.

Kendra Anselmo Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Personality patterns often develop as ways of protecting yourself, navigating relationships, and responding to past experiences. Therapy can help you better understand your emotions, relational patterns, and protective parts while building greater self-compassion, emotional regulation, and a more connected sense of self. You are more than your diagnosis, and healing is possible through deeper understanding and support.
