Samuele Bariani
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP
Our teenage years can be an adventurous and enjoyable journey into adulthood, but they can also be among the most difficult periods of our life. At times, family and friends are not enough to navigate complex emotions, doubts and concerns related to self-esteem, identity, sexuality, and relationships. I provide safe and beneficial support for youth who want to learn new coping skills to better address those challenges and flourish in their lives.

Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Children and adolescents often experience challenges not just in their minds, but in how they feel and express themselves in their bodies. Stress, anxiety, sadness, or frustration can show up as tension, restlessness, or emotional outbursts. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping young people safely express feelings, build self-awareness, regulate emotions, and develop healthy coping skills in a supportive and empowering way.
