Lydia Bennett
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, BA Psychology
My passion for psychotherapy comes from my own experiences with relationships. I’ve learned that our greatest joys—and our toughest struggles—often come from the connections we share with parents, partners, children, friends, and colleagues. These relationships shape not only how we see the world but also how we experience ourselves.

Antony Alexander
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
There are times when we know we want something to change, but aren’t quite sure what needs to change—or where to begin.
Perhaps you want to understand yourself better, improve your relationships, develop a stronger sense of self, or make sense of patterns that seem to keep repeating. Sometimes, what brings us to therapy is a specific concern; at other times, it is simply a feeling that something in our lives or relationships isn’t quite working the way we would like it to.
I work with adults around relationships, self-esteem, emotional patterns, life transitions, and the experiences that shape how we understand ourselves and relate to others. Together, we explore not only what is happening, but what may be underneath it.
You might find yourself asking: Why do I keep responding this way? Why do I struggle to trust or feel close to others? Why is it difficult to set boundaries? Why do I keep being so hard on myself? Why do certain experiences continue to affect me?
Rather than offering quick solutions or telling you what you should do, I believe therapy is a space to slow down, become curious about your experience, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself. We work collaboratively to explore the emotions, beliefs, relationships, and patterns that influence the way you experience yourself and the world around you.
My approach draws from Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioural (CBT), Psychodynamic, and Trauma-Informed approaches. I pay attention to both your present concerns and the deeper influences that may be shaping them, while keeping our work grounded in your individual experiences and goals.
Therapy doesn't have to begin with having all the answers. Sometimes, knowing that you want something to be different is enough of a place to start.
If you’re ready to explore what’s beneath the surface and understand yourself in a new way, I’d be glad to begin that exploration with you.

Welcome to a Space for Growth and Self-Discovery
This is a space where growth is intentional, self-awareness is cultivated, and the inner process is honored. With years of experience in psychotherapy, I offer a personalized approach that focuses on learning, integration, and conscious transformation.
My work blends Gestalt therapy, CBT, mindfulness, and psychosomatic awareness to support both the conscious and subconscious dimensions of experience. Together, these approaches help illuminate the patterns, beliefs, and emotional responses that shape how we relate to ourselves and the world.
What defines my practice:
• Process-Oriented Care: Each session is an invitation to explore what’s emerging—thoughts, emotions, sensations—and to engage with them consciously
• Depth and Awareness: We work with both the mind and body, uncovering subconscious influences and building insight that leads to meaningful change
• Practical and Reflective Tools: Techniques from CBT and mindfulness support emotional regulation and perspective-taking, while Gestalt and psychosomatic work deepen the connection to inner truth
• Flexible and Accessible: Online sessions and adaptable scheduling make it easy to stay engaged with your growth
This isn’t about fixing—it’s about unfolding. It’s about learning to meet yourself with clarity, curiosity, and compassion, and allowing that awareness to guide your next steps.
