Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a warm, respectful, and neurodiversity-affirming space for clients on the autism spectrum, including those who identify with Asperger’s. I understand that each individual experiences the world differently and believe that therapy should celebrate those differences rather than try to change them.
Using an integrative approach I support clients in developing practical coping strategies, improving emotional regulation, and enhancing communication and social skills in ways that feel authentic and empowering. My approach focuses on identifying personal strengths, building confidence, and supporting self-advocacy.
I strive to offer a compassionate and accepting environment where neurodivergent clients can explore challenges, nurture self-understanding, and build meaningful, fulfilling lives—on their own terms.
