Dr. Ashwin Mehra
Psychologist, PhD, CPsych
Growth and healing are choices we can make. If you are reading this, you have already taken an important first step. You may be wondering whether therapy can help you take the next ones. Those steps might lead toward relief from distress, clearer direction, healthier relationships, better emotional regulation, insight into long-standing patterns, healing from the past, or movement toward meaningful personal goals. Each person begins therapy with unique hopes and expectations. My role is to support you in moving toward what matters most to you.
I offer an integrative, individualized approach to therapy rather than a one-size-fits-all model. I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology from St. John’s University in New York City through an integrative program that emphasized both depth and breadth of training. My clinical experience in New York and Toronto has provided me with extensive exposure to diverse populations and a wide range of psychological concerns. I work across the lifespan from children, adolescents, adults, to seniors and provide individual, couples, family, group, and parenting therapy, depending on what best fits a client’s needs. I have also conducted comprehensive psychological assessments evaluating cognitive functioning, personality structure, learning disabilities, and emotional or behavioral concerns. This breadth of experience allows me to approach each case with nuance, balance, and clinical depth. Please call for a free consultation!

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.

Arne Pedersen - Hypnotherapy Victoria
Hypnotherapist, RCCH
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.
