Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Grief can deeply affect self-esteem, especially when a griever begins questioning who they were to the person who died. Many people blame themselves after a death and wonder if they loved enough, visited enough, said enough, noticed enough, or should have done something differently. Caregivers may carry an even heavier burden, believing they should have been able to save the person they loved.
I support adults through the guilt, regret, self-blame, and painful questions that can follow a loss. I acknowledge these thoughts and feelings by explaining that they make sense, that many grievers experience them, and that they are not proof of failure or a lack of love. I also provide plain-language grief education and practical tools to help clients manage these thoughts when they are triggered, so they can respond to themselves with more understanding instead of self-punishment.

Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
I provide comprehensive counselling support for individuals navigating a wide range of personal, emotional, and self esteem concerns. My practice specializes in helping clients manage the pressures of perfectionism, high-achievement, and burnout, while offering dedicated space for navigating men’s issues, women’s issues (including perimenopause), and the unique complexities of ADHD or neurodivergence. I offer compassionate guidance for those experiencing mild depression, anxiety, low mood, or profound loneliness, helping you build self-compassion and emotional regulation strategies. Additionally, I support individuals walking through major life disruptions and hardships, including life or career transitions, divorce and relationship strain, grief, and loss of direction. No matter the challenge, my goal is to help you slow down, understand your patterns, and build a more intentional, resilient path forward.

Angela Colangelo
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., RP, RMFT
Self esteem begins as a child, taking in experiences and messages you hear about yourself. These may then be reinforced as we get older. Re-evaluating some of these as adults is imperative for us to get a clearer picture of who we truly are and who we are right now.
