Aliya Amarshi
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD (Sociology)
I offer warm, attuned, and inclusive online therapy for adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the complexities of identity, family, and work. My approach integrates Gestalt, IFS (parts work), and somatic strategies to support nervous system regulation and deeper self-understanding. I hold space for the full range of your experience—without judgment—and tailor our work to what feels most supportive and effective for you. Healing, to me, is not just personal—it’s also a step toward creating a more compassionate world.

Donna Wigmore Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT
The therapeutic connection we make will create possibilities for healing and emotional freedom. If you struggle with depression or anxiety we can work together to shift these patterns. If you have been overwhelmed and stuck in fight, flight, or freeze, we can explore how to navigate life in a different way, befriending your nervous system. I approach our work together as a feminist, Highly Sensitive Person, with a heart full of hope and gratitude to be able to work for justice and healing. Reach out if you think we might be a good fit. I am honoured by each person who lets me be a part of their healing. Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, we can use your spiritual ground as a place to land and know the infinity of resources that are available.

Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, Psychotherapist, Counseling Therapist, Psychologist, Registered Social Worker
From Our Founder
Clear Minds Counselling was built around a simple idea: **therapy should create change.**
Too often, people come to us after spending years understanding their struggles. They can tell us where a pattern came from, recognize that a reaction isn't helping them, and know exactly what they *should* be doing differently—yet when real life happens, the same response takes over.
That isn't because they haven't tried hard enough. It's because understanding something consciously doesn't necessarily change what the brain and body have learned to do automatically.
That's why we operate differently.
At Clear Minds, our therapists don't rely on one approach or simply sit across from you and talk about the problem. We work **bottom up, top down and side to side**, using evidence-based, neuroscience-informed and experiential approaches to address thoughts and beliefs, nervous-system responses, unconscious patterns and learned reactions.
We believe in creating experiences within therapy that allow clients to practice something different—not just understand something differently. We challenge patterns, build practical skills, regulate responses and help clients create new evidence that the brain can use to update what it has learned from the past.
Our therapists have their own personalities, specialties and clinical approaches, but the philosophy behind Clear Minds remains consistent: **therapy should translate into real life.**
Whether you're coming to us for individual, couples or family counselling, our goal isn't to keep you in therapy forever. It's to help you understand what's happening, change the patterns that are getting in your way, and develop skills you can continue using long after you leave our office.
**You don't have to keep repeating the same patterns.**
Maybe you're ready for something different.

Tehmina Ayana Meherali
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, CCC, CMHP
Healing happens in relationship and I create a heart-centered space for our work together. I have many years of experience working with clients on issues ranging from anxiety to relationship difficulties and life transitions. I use a therapy model called Internal Family Systems (IFS), which helps you understand the different parts of you that are experiencing challenges. For instance, there may be a part of you who is a perfectionist, or a part that may feel overwhelming anxiety. We get to know these parts of you in a compassionate and curious way, which helps you to get to the root cause. Through this clarity, a spaciousness opens up in your psyche and body, which can often lead to profound healing. I teach clients how to engage their mind, body, and spirit in the healing process.
