Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), MACP, Bsc
I hold a space where each person can be fully seen, heard, and met exactly where they are, with empathy, curiosity, and zero judgment. As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, I understand how past experiences can shape the way we relate to ourselves, others, and the world. I integrate EMDR, CBT, DBT, EFT, Solution-Focused, narrative and psychodynamic approaches to support healing not just at the surface, but at a deep, meaningful level.
Therapy with me is not about fixing you, because you are not broken. It’s about helping you reconnect with your strengths, untangle painful patterns, and move toward the life you want to live. I work collaboratively, honouring your pace and your story, and tailoring our work to what truly resonates for you.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking to understand yourself better, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and care. If you're ready to explore what’s been holding you back—and what’s possible—I invite you to reach out. You don’t have to do this alone.

Jane Allen
Psychologist, Master Counselling, BSc. Eng, MBA
Many of my clients feel lost or stuck in their lives. They often feel troubled by their relationships, work situations, unmet dreams, and transitions into different stages of life. Our culture does not offer many forums for authentic exploration of life's challenges. My work supports you in exploring the underlying causes of such feelings as anxiety, depression, fear, emptiness, despair, resentment, anger.
I offer a very non-judgmental environment where we can examine different life patterns and core beliefs which may be negatively affecting your quality of life. If you feel isolated in your challenges, I can offer perspectives and insights that will help you understand yourself more and discover that you are not alone.
My goal is to provide hope, insight and new perspectives to my clients. I am an avid reader, researcher and learner and work to find a good match with each client and a suitable counselling approach. Working as a psychologist is a second career for me. I have extensive life experience and work experience in science, business and work teams.

Nathan Kretzschmar
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Finding your way back to a sense of balance, clarity, and inner steadiness is not always easy. Life can feel painful, confusing, or overwhelming at times, especially when you are carrying anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, grief, identity questions, or major life transitions.
In therapy, I see our work as collaborative. You are the expert on your own life and story, while I bring clinical training, curiosity, and experience to help us better understand what you are facing. My approach is person-centred, trauma-informed, and grounded in mindfulness. I integrate approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, CBT, MBCT, EMDR, CBT-I, and the Unified Protocol when appropriate.
I do not see mental health as the absence of painful thoughts or emotions. Difficult experiences are part of being human. What often matters is how we relate to those experiences and whether we can still move toward a life that feels meaningful, connected, and aligned with our values.
My hope is to offer a grounded, nonjudgmental space where you can feel understood as a whole person, not simply a collection of symptoms or problems. Together, we can work toward greater self-understanding, emotional steadiness, and meaningful change.

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!

Lauren Kalvari
Registered Social Worker, PhD, MSW, RSW
Very little about human experience surprises me anymore — yet people continue to move and inspire me.
I am deeply open-minded, curious, and grounded in a strong sense of relational and community responsibility. My work is shaped by decades of clinical practice and by a lived understanding of complexity, resilience, and care under pressure. I bring steadiness, intuition, and a thoughtful sense of humour into the therapeutic space, creating an environment where people can feel safe enough to speak honestly and begin to heal.
I am also attentive to the spiritual, cultural, and meaning-making dimensions of people's lives, including experiences of spiritual or religious harm, loss of community, and the search to rebuild identity after trauma. Therapy is not about fixing what is broken, but about creating space for integration, dignity, safety, and renewed choice.
Professionally, I have worked within provincial mental health and welfare systems and continue to support charitable and community-based initiatives focused on intimate partner violence. I have also been involved in a federally funded research project examining coercive control and the challenges faced by culturally insular communities, work that informs my clinical and supervisory practice.
My therapeutic approach is integrative, relational and responsive to each person's inner world and culture. I draw primarily from psychodynamic and relational traditions, alongside somatic and trauma-informed approaches, adapting therapy to the pace, needs and lived experience of the individual. This includes support for individuals affected by intimate partner violence, spiritual abuse, and trauma within religious or culturally insular communities.

Ekaterina Kapoustina
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
I work with therapists and other service providers to support them in understanding themselves in a deeper, relational way through couples and process group therapy. Group work is not just a "cheaper alternative" to individual therapy. It allows for you to receive support while exploring relational dynamics and trying on new ways of engaging vulnerably to improve your personal relationships, whether friendship or intimate partners. Currently enrolling for Dating as a Therapist Process Group. A bi-weekly group, focused on the relational challenges of dating as a therapist. Starting April 24th, 12- 2 pm.
