James "Jamie" Myslik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I worked for ten years in a clinic for folks living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. While it was rarely the primary issue folks were looking to work on, the many ways in which it impacted their lives were always present, from disclosure, to self-image, to dating, and beyond. I provide folks with a space where they don't have to educate their counsellor about life with HIV.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
You don't have to walk this alone. Whether you've lost someone to death, a relationship that ended, a future that won't happen, or a version of yourself you'll never get back, I'll sit with you in the pain without rushing you toward acceptance or closure. Together, we'll honor what you've lost, make space for the complex emotions grief brings, and gently help you rediscover who you are now. Healing doesn't mean forgetting—it means learning to carry loss without it crushing you. I'll support every step forward.

Centre for Psychology and Emotional Health
Psychologist
On our team is Carmine who was an activist, advocate, outreach worker, and counsellor in the LGBTQ communities in Milano and in Toronto. He has experience working with individuals struggling with issues around coming out, body image and disordered eating, exploring their gender identity or sexual orientation, or newly diagnosed with HIV. He has also worked with couples navigating the complexity of same sex relationships.
In addition our team includes Bill who led a randomized-controlled trial of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for gay men living with HIV that was the first to indicate psychological improvements for mindfulness in this population. This study inspired him to explore integrating self-compassion more deeply into mindfulness-based interventions to better address harsh self-criticism, shame and inter-personal injuries, leading him to develop EFMT.

Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Dvorkin, MPsy, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying),
As a dedicated psychotherapist, I specialize in providing compassionate support and guidance to individuals living with HIV/AIDS. I understand the unique challenges and emotional complexities that come with this diagnosis, and I am committed to helping my clients navigate the physical, psychological, and social aspects of their journey. With a deep understanding of the stigma, fear, and isolation often associated with HIV/AIDS, I create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their emotions, fears, and hopes. Together, we work collaboratively to address issues such as disclosure, self-esteem, coping with medication, managing relationships, and navigating the healthcare system. Utilizing evidence-based therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness techniques, I help my clients develop effective strategies to cope with the challenges of living with HIV/AIDS. I also provide support in addressing emotional distress, depression, anxiety, and any other mental health concerns that may arise. Through our therapeutic relationship, I aim to empower individuals to enhance their overall well-being, build resilience, and find a sense of purpose and meaning in their lives beyond their diagnosis. My ultimate goal is to help my clients embrace their strengths, foster a sense of self-acceptance, and live fulfilling and empowered lives, breaking free from the limitations and stigma often associated with HIV/AIDS.
