Alana is completing her Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. She has spent the last 8 years working in the helping profession, where she supports her clients with a variety of issues, such as relationship challenges, trauma, low self-worth, anxiety, and depression. Alana brings warmth, humour, and a non-judgmental presence to promote a space where the client can feel supported and grow. Grounded in a person-centred approach, she believes it is important to foster a strong and trusting relationship between the client and counsellor. Her approach incorporates various modalities to tailor treatment to the client's specific needs and beliefs.  

I offer a calm, supportive, and intentional approach to therapy where you can slow down, feel heard, and begin responding to life with more clarity and choice. Our work focuses on emotional regulation, confidence, and rebuilding trust in yourself, while gently addressing the deeper habits and experiences that continue to shape your reactions. Many people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and motivated, yet find themselves repeating familiar emotional or mental patterns despite their best intentions. Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in cycles of anxiety and self-doubt can be exhausting — especially when you’ve already put effort into change and still don’t feel steady or at ease. This is a collaborative process for those who are ready to engage thoughtfully, reflect between sessions, and take meaningful steps toward lasting change.  

Psychotherapy for a wide range of issues including anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, career. Together, we can work towards improving relationship skills, coming up with a plan for the future, or just feeling better about yourself. In the case of anxiety or other mental health issues, we can work towards reducing the frequency, duration, and intensity of the negative feelings that you are experiencing. Evening and weekend appointments available. Sessions may be covered by workplace insurance plans (look for the term "social worker" in your benefits package).  

Hi! My name is Yuka (She/Her), and I am glad that you are here. I’m a neurodivergent Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS) candidate with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors, and a person of colour with lived experience navigating neurodivergence. I hold a Master of Counselling degree from Monash University and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of British Columbia with a Major in Psychology and a Minor in Law and Society. I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Counselling and Psychotherapy degree to further my education, deepen my expertise, and contribute to neurodiversity research and practice. My personal journey, including undergoing brain surgery and navigating mental health challenges, has fueled my passion for clinical counselling and holistic well-being, encompassing both mind and body. Born in Japan, raised in Singapore, and now living in Canada, I bring a multicultural perspective that honours the intersection of culture, identity, and lived experience in every session.  

Working with survivors of trauma or PTSD, I help people who have struggled with a painful past. In Toronto, practicing for over 25 years, I work with individuals and families struggling with interpersonal trauma or PTSD, difficult family relationships, or those in high distress from loss & grief, or people trying to cope with eating disorders, anxiety, or emotional pain.  

It takes courage to ask for help. I am aware of the enormous amount of pain people carry every day, everywhere and I feel compelled to reach out and help them tap into a more meaningful life, to teach them they have value, to help them gain an increased sense of control over their own life, to help them recognize their resilience and improve the quality of their relationships. We are all in this together.  

I am a holistic practitioner, supporting individuals, couples and families in their journey of healing and recovery, for last 13 years. As a therapist, I am cognizant of all the struggles that one endures on daily basis. The traumas that you have withheld for decades probably. The challenges you face everyday in your basic daily functioning. The stress, anxiety and depression that sometimes can cloud you, does impact all domains of your beautiful life. All you need is to connect with yourself to unlock your true potential, in a safe space. I am excited, happy, and honored to walk this journey of healing with you.  

I am a certified sex addiction and pornography addiction therapist. My primary area of work is helping individuals struggling with the challenges and resulting complications from sexual and pornography addiction. In addition, I assist the betrayed partners to come to some level of understanding and healing from what they have recently discovered, and been traumatized by. My certification in EMDR trauma therapy is particularly helpful to both the addict and the partner in discovering and healing the current or past issues that may come to the forefront in the therapeutic process. Through consultation in an empathetic counselling relationship I am able to provide therapy for individuals, partners, and couples suffering the consequences of sex and pornography addiction, as well trauma that may or may not be related. I provide in-person or online therapy (through a secure and confidential system).  

The Mental Game Clinic is a team of registered psychologists, psychotherapists and mental performance consultants with a specific interest in performance excellence. We work collaboratively with our clients to achieve their goals for therapy, life and their careers. We change the world by supporting the people who change the world.  

I believe it's important that that therapy offers a safe and supportive space - a place where people can explore new ways of thinking and dealing with challenges they encounter. It's also an opportunity to to reflect on how we see the world and begin to toward more balanced effective ways of living. When someone is open to it, therapy can also be place for learning to live more presently, with greater awareness and clarity.  

Stress that won't switch off - saying yes when we wish we said no - constantly over-thinking: these are signs of a nervous system stuck in survival mode. Patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and anxiety aren't random. Perhaps these still feel necessary, or maybe they feel like flaws - they're not, at some point they helped. But, are we faithfully following a rule-book that no longer applies? Over time, the experience of being heard and attuned-to in therapy grooves an embodied sense of safety. As the nervous system finds more capacity to shift out of 'survival', more becomes available: rest that actually restores, patience in hard conversations, deeper connection with the people you love. Painful or shameful parts that once felt monstrous are often revealed as misunderstood - parts that were only ever trying to protect.  

I help high functioning individuals shift from survival mode to thriving by using culturally informed and evidenced based techniques. Lived experience coupled with extensive training in trauma and trauma informed modalities equips me to help you get the most out of your therapy experience. Whether you're navigating intergenerational challenges, burnout from trying to accommodate everyone else's needs or curious about what a values based life can look and feel like, I walk along side you during the therapeutic journey to implement meaningful change.

Hi, I’m Kate. I help individuals and couples navigate trauma, relational pain, and emotional overwhelm. Together, we’ll explore the roots of your challenges, to help you feel more grounded and empowered. Past hurts can echo into the present: quick triggers, shutdowns, or the same fight on repeat. Trauma, whether from earlier life experiences or broken trust in relationships, can leave you feeling unsafe in your body and disconnected from the people who matter most. My approach is compassionate, and collaborative. We will work at a pace that feels manageable, so you can restore trust in yourself and in your relationships.

I started Clearway Psychology and Wellness because I believe therapy should feel like a genuine conversation, not a clinical transaction. My approach is collaborative and grounded — I meet clients where they are, without judgment, and we work together toward what actually matters to them. I draw on evidence-based methods, but what guides me most is the relationship itself: that sense of being truly heard and understood is where real change begins. Whether you're coming in as an individual navigating something hard, or as a couple trying to find your way back to each other, I bring warmth, honesty, and a deep respect for your experience. If you've been thinking about reaching out, this is a good place to start.

I combine empathy, experience, and education to help you work through your issues and live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. My goal is to provide truly helpful, evidence-based psychological assessment and counselling for adult individuals and couples. I always aim to provide the best possible type of therapy according to your preferences and the way your mind works. I am neurodiversity affirming and believe in working with you, not on you.

I am a kind and caring therapist who believes in providing a safe and non judgemental space to clients so they can explore difficult thoughts, emotions and behaviours. I have over 15 years experience working as a Registered Psychotherapist and Registered Marriage and Family Therapist. I am passionate about creating a therapeutic relationship that allows people flourish and live a live in line with their true potential. I work with individuals of all ages, families, couples and all relationships. My schedule and emails from this website are managed through Spacious Mind Counselling.  

The reason clients return time after time, and year after year, is due to the fact that I've made it a priority to build a strong connection with them. I listen, I guide them when they ask, and I'm honest with my feedback. Simply, they trust me. and nothing could be more important to me or to them. And because my work has always felt like both an honour and a gift, I value the opportunity of being brought into the emotional lives of my clients where I can offer them the kind of safe space they may not have ever experienced previously.  

I offer a safe, non judgemental space for people to reconnect with themselves & explore vulnerabilities without reservation.  

At Transversality Counselling, we believe therapy is not about fixing what’s broken but about making room for what’s human. We work from a trauma-informed, relational, feminist, and decolonial lens — always holding in mind that healing doesn’t happen in a straight line. It moves across languages, histories, relationships, and identities. We offer individual, couples, and group counselling, as well as clinical supervision. Our work is guided by compassion, cultural awareness, and respect for each person’s pace. Whether you are navigating trauma, grief, identity, or change, we meet you where you are — in English or Spanish — with care and curiosity.
