Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
Growing up is a unique phase of life, filled with new experiences, challenges, and developmental changes. Navigating this period can feel overwhelming and intense. Our work together will involve exploring these aspects of yourself and processing the emotions that arise along the way. Many young people can struggle to express their feelings and may not feel comfortable sharing with family so speaking with a therapist can feel reassuring, as it offers a safe, compassionate environment where you can express your emotions freely, without judgment or expectations. Book a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I’m the right fit for you.

Anna Skomorovskaia (Sky)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
As a psychotherapist, I chose to work with adolescents because I recognize the unique challenges that this age group faces. Adolescence is a time of rapid physical, emotional, and cognitive changes, which can be difficult to navigate. Adolescents may struggle with a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, peer pressure, identity development, and family conflict. I believe that working with adolescents is important because it provides an opportunity to support young people during a critical period of growth and development. Young individuals will learn learn to understand the roots of their difficulties. Through therapy, I help adolescents explore their thoughts and feelings, develop coping skills, and build resilience. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where my clients feel heard and understood, and I am committed to helping them achieve their goals and reach their full potential.

Barrie is a city on Kempenfelt Bay of Lake Simcoe north of Toronto that has become one of Ontario's fastest-growing communities as families and professionals seek more affordable housing within commuting distance of the city, and the resulting rapid growth has created both rising demand for therapy and the particular challenges of a community still building its social infrastructure. Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre provides hospital-based mental health services, and Georgian College contributes to the local supply of trained counsellors through its health and wellness programs. The proximity to Muskoka cottage country and year-round outdoor recreation options give the city a quality-of-life appeal, though cold winters and long commutes to Toronto are among the stressors residents bring to therapy. Common therapy concerns include commuter stress, relocation and transition challenges, seasonal affective disorder, and the pressures of family life in a rapidly changing community.
