Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Sometimes life can leave us feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. You may be navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, ADHD, disordered eating, family stress, or the impact of difficult or unsafe relationships. Whatever brings you to therapy, you do not have to figure it out alone.
I work with youth, adults, and couples to create a safe, supportive space where you can explore your experiences, build on your strengths, and move toward healing and growth. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that therapy should be tailored to the person in front of me.
Together, we can explore patterns, develop practical tools, strengthen emotional regulation, and work toward meaningful change at a pace that feels manageable. Taking the first step can feel intimidating, but reaching out for support is a sign of strength.

Audrey Kao
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Relationships — whether with a partner, friend, or family member — can bring stress, uncertainty, and pain.
Maybe you’re going through a breakup and feeling heartbroken. Or you’ve had a few relationships that didn’t work out and you’re starting to feel stuck in a pattern.
Perhaps you and your partner are arguing more than ever and you’re questioning where things are headed. Or you’re struggling with how to navigate a difficult family relationship.
Maybe a conflict with a friend has impacted you more than you expected. Or you’re feeling lonely and craving closer connections, but social anxiety or self-doubt are getting in the way.
If any of this feels familiar, you’re in the right place.
Hi! I'm Audrey - I'm a Registered Social Worker specializing in relationship issues. My goal is to support you in feeling secure, fulfilled, and at peace in all of your relationships, including with romantic partners, friends, and family.

Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma.
No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. Gottman (couples) and Post Induction Therapy training (relational/developmental trauma)
I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best.
If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit!
SE focuses on regulating your nervous system.
With SE work trauma responses are completed and energy is released back into the system and with this the resolution and disappearance of physical complaints, including headaches, digestive problems, and pain syndromes can be resolved, and emotional regulation can be restored.
I will teach you how to work with your stress response - the body's innate alarm system in response to a perceived danger, also called the "Fight or Flight" response.
It is highly adaptive to danger and human survival when threats are physical, but less so when threats are psychological, or imaginary, among other somatic and relational skills.
I have been trained under Dr Abi Blakeslee part of Dr Peter A Levine's legacy group out of California for Somatic Experiencing and the late great Dr Bud Feder the author of Beyond the Hot Seat was on my dissertation committee overseeing a phenomenological study of the effectiveness of a gestalt therapy group I created to reduce stress in working informal caregivers of the elderly. I named the group process Stressed WOW (We Overloaded with Work).
Gestalt therapy is an extremely complex psychotherapy, too complex to describe in this short space.
The power of its effectiveness can only be experienced.
Most present day therapies have stolen bits and pieces of its praxis.
Get the whole again with a holistic, here and now, experiential therapy.
I am here for you... I've got your six!

Cimberly R Nesker
Registered Psychotherapist, B.A., MSc., PG Dip, CCC, CRPO
It is my belief that therapy is needed, by almost everyone, at some point in their life. Having someone who is an outside, objective advocate is often the first step to greater understanding of ourselves, our concerns and our worries.
