What I offer isn't a formula. It's a real conversation — one that gets underneath the noise and into what's actually driving the patterns. My focus is simple: helping you simplify your life, reconnect with what love and joy mean to you, and re-establish yourself on your own terms. Life is change. Stagnant water goes stale — but flowing water nourishes everything it touches. Therapy is how you keep moving, on purpose, toward the life that's meant for you. That change can begin with a single session

Toronto, Ontario therapist: Manisha Grewal, counselor/therapist
Serving Black / African American

Manisha Grewal

Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you tend to replay past events in your mind over and over, and spiral into worries about the future? Do you struggle with boundaries, people-pleasing, or relationships, causing you to "overgive" to others while abandoning your own needs? Many people describe feeling like they’re moving through life on autopilot — weighed down by overthinking, low mood, or the pressure to keep everyone else happy. You might notice people-pleasing tendencies, difficulty maintaining boundaries, or a pattern of overgiving that leaves you drained, ungrounded, and disconnected from yourself. Here, you’ll find a warm, calm space where your feelings are validated and your voice genuinely matters. Together, we’ll engage in meaningful, deep processing work, explore what's fuelling your distress, and gently uncover the deeper experiences and patterns shaping your emotional world. Alongside this, we’ll build practical tools to regulate your nervous system and ease your symptoms in the present, helping you reconnect with a more empowered, resilient, and self-aware version of yourself. I bring the richness of three cultures, four languages, and the lived experience of being both a first- and third-generation immigrant. My background in the medical field also allows me to integrate physiological and psychological insight. These parts of who I am allow me to deeply empathize with the immigrant journey across generations, as well as the ways culture, family expectations, and identity can shape mental health. No matter your background or story, I aim to meet you with genuine understanding, respect, and compassion. I am a proud ally to LGBTQIA2S+ and BIPOC communities and offer inclusive, compassionate care for all backgrounds and lived experiences. If what I’ve shared resonates, we may be a good fit. If you're curious about working together, let's start with a free, no-pressure 30-min video consultation, where we can connect and chat in a calm, relaxed space. ✨ Evening and weekend appointments available ✨ Free 30-minute consultation to get started

I see therapy as a sacred space that offers clients the opportunity to pause from the constant distractions life presents to engage and reflect on our inner and outer worlds. While this process may at times feel challenging or even painful, it can also lead to peaceful and celebratory reflections. I am committed to ensuring that clients feel seen, heard, and respected, and that our conversations lead to unique transformations achieved through empowerment.

Everyone has unique lived experiences which impact how one views themselves and the world around them. Regardless of your experiences and what you may be going through, I aim to create a safe and non-judgemental space for you to share your life story and work collaboratively to discover or rediscover your values and meaning in life. As a Registered Psychotherapist, one of my key passions is to help people discover their inner strengths and foster positive growth. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, grief, trauma-related experiences, identity exploration, relationship challenges, and various life and role transitions. I have experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, including members of BIPOC communities, and approach my work through a culturally responsive and anti-oppressive lens. I draw from integrative therapeutic techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindful Self-Compassion, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. My approach to therapy is compassionate and culturally sensitive and I strive to encourage a supportive environment to reach a place of healing and growth. Taking the first step to reaching out can be difficult so I want to thank you for taking this step and beginning this journey towards healing. I hope to support you and make this process as comfortable as I can. Don't hesitate to contact me for a free consultation.

Ashley Bargent Coaching & Counselling

Registered Social Worker, Associate Certified Coach, ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider MSW, RSW, ACC, ADHD-CCSP
Work is draining the joy from your life. Your confidence is dropping and you’re not sure about this career anymore. Every workday, it’s harder to get out of bed. You’ve considered changing jobs but are scared you’re the problem. The idea of change feels overwhelming because you overthink and don’t know where to start. You long for a job where your strengths will shine and you can live up to your potential. But you aren’t sure if you’ll ever find a place where you belong, especially if you’re grappling with ADHD.

Vancouver, British Columbia therapist: Romana Hrivnakova, registered psychotherapist
Serving Black / African American

Romana Hrivnakova

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Many of the adults I work with feel stuck in patterns shaped by complex trauma and early relationships. You may notice this showing up as persistent anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or relationship cycles that feel difficult to break—even when you intellectually understand them. Together, we gently explore the roots of these patterns and how they developed. As these survival strategies begin to make sense, you can move toward a greater sense of clarity, internal stability, and a more compassionate way of relating to yourself and others.
