Audrey Palmer-Genesis Clinical Services
Registered Psychotherapist, CYW,MTS,RP (Registered Psychotherapist)
I'm a therapist in Toronto and I believe that each individual is the expert in themselves, and as such, they enter into a relationship with the therapist to move forward toward wholeness. I also believe that most of what we experience is temporary as we look at the extent of our lives. I caution individuals not to make permanent decisions based on a temporary situation. Therapy is the process of understanding what has derailed the individual and actively move them back to a place of equilibrium.
After 25 years of practice, I bring knowledge, insight and numerous skills to my work with clients. Whether I'm treating trauma, or helping clients apply the insights offered by Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, or utilizing the concepts of resilience to their experience, I am a fairly creative and utilize the client's creativity to help move them forward. By asking questions, offering perspectives, and suggesting ways to engage in the process beyond the confines of the session itself. My central role is to establish a caring and therapeutic relationship with each and every client. Contact me for a fifteen min. phone session.

Celina Lucarelli
Therapist, EXA
Humans are social animals. We require deeply embodied and interdependent relationships in order to thrive, it is a part of our genetic and evolutionary design.The deepest core of all human trauma is the fear, “I am alone here”. If we experienced this to be true, at any point in our lives, our incredibly adaptive brain will create survival strategies in order to avoid experiencing this aloneness again. The difficulty is that for many of us, the greatest harm we experience is within relationship. Many of our mental “disorders” come from this broken internal loop, “I need to be connected - connection has caused me harm”. This is why therapy exists. It provides a safe enough space to begin the work of connecting again first to yourself, and then with the ecosystem around you.

New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
We are a team of Registered Psychotherapists and Social Workers who specialize in supporting individuals through effective and research backed trauma, relationship, and sex therapy.
We began as a trauma focused clinic - our team has a solid understanding of the countless small and large ways that trauma impacts us. We work with traumatic stress and related difficulties such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD and complexPTSD), addiction, self-harm, and suicide ideation. We support survivors of sexual violence as well as those who have experienced emotional and physical abuse, criminal victimization, bullying, war, and near death experiences.
We've found that as people heal, relationships and intimacy naturally becomes a secondary focus. For this reason we offer family, couples, and sex therapy. We support individuals of all gender and sexual identities and relationship structures.
We respect diversity and differences in opinions, values and attitudes. This is reflected through individualized treatment plans which consider each individuals lived and generational experiences. We strive to provide culturally-sensitive, non-discriminatory, and affirming care to culturally diverse populations and BIPOC, LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, kink and polyamorous communities.
Our goal is to help you break free from your past and rediscover a fulfilling life filled with joy and connection.

Are you or your child struggling with ADHD, intense emotional outbursts, anxiety, or deep burnout? Feeling overwhelmed is exhausting, but you do not have to face these hurdles alone. As a Registered Psychotherapist with over 20 years of clinical experience and the founder of Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, I specialize in transforming daily behavioral, learning, and emotional challenges into lasting confidence, self-regulation, and family peace.
What makes my practice truly unique is that I bridge the gap between traditional talk therapy and innovative cognitive development. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, and Attachment-Based Family Therapy with creative play and art interventions. I am also the creator of CleverQuest™ Cognitive Training—a research-informed, play-based brain training program designed to strengthen core working memory, attention, and executive functioning in a fun, engaging way.
Backed by published child development books and over 16 scientific journal articles, my strategies are deeply evidence-based yet delivered in a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment. To make your care as seamless as possible, I offer daytime, evening, and Saturday appointments, secure virtual therapy across Ontario, and direct billing for most major insurance providers. Let's take the first step together—contact me today to schedule your free 15-minute consultation.
