Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
Navigating a world that wasn't built for a neurodivergent brain can feel like a constant, exhausting uphill battle. I provide specialized, comprehensive counselling support for individuals navigating the unique complexities of ADHD and neurodivergence. Often, living with ADHD means dealing with the heavy, paired pressures of chronic overwhelm, masking, high-achievement burnout, and a loud inner critic driven by perfectionism.In our work together, we move beyond generic advice to build an intentional path forward that actually honors your unique brain. We use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to untangle unhelpful patterns and create practical, everyday executive functioning and mindset tools. Because ADHD overwhelm and rejection sensitivity are felt deeply in the body, we also integrate neuro-experiential tools like Brainspotting. This allows us to look beneath the surface, calm the nervous system, and gently process the stuck emotional stress and exhaustion that traditional talk therapy alone can't always reach.Whether you are navigating a late-in-life ADHD diagnosis, managing career and relationship strain, or looking to build genuine self-compassion, I am here to support you. Alongside individual virtual sessions, I also value community connection and offer group therapy spaces where you can navigate these transitions and patterns alongside peers who truly understand.

ADHD
Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, sometimes present as ADD without hyperactivity. People with ADHD find it difficult to maintain attention to a topic that doesn't particularly interest them... Although they are also able to concentrate more deeply than most of topics they find fascinating. Impulse control is another symptom they may have trouble with, among other symptoms, most of which can be addressed successfully.

Living with ADHD can feel overwhelming, leaving you struggling with focus, organization, procrastination, emotional regulation, and the constant feeling that you're falling behind despite your best efforts. Together, we'll explore how ADHD affects your daily life, relationships, self-esteem, and stress while identifying practical strategies that work with your strengths instead of against them. My goal is to help you better understand your brain, reduce shame and self criticism, and build the confidence and skills needed to thrive.

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Living with ADHD can feel like working twice as hard just to keep up, and being misunderstood while you do it. The missed deadlines, the mental clutter, the shame that builds when strategies that work for everyone else keep failing you: none of it means something is wrong with you. It means your brain works differently, and therapy should reflect that. Here you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space to understand how your ADHD actually shows up, untangle it from the anxiety and self-criticism that often grow around it, and build supports that fit the way you think. The goal isn't just to manage symptoms, it's to genuinely understand yourself, work with your brain instead of against it, and reconnect with your strengths. Together we'll work toward real, meaningful change, so you leave sessions feeling more grounded, more capable, and more equipped to navigate your life and relationships on your own terms.
