Lisa O'Donovan
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
You may be feeling disconnected from yourself or others, struggling with healthy boundaries, or wanting a deeper sense of self-understanding. Repeating patterns in relationships, or the ongoing impact of (C-PTSD) childhood trauma, relationship or family dysfunction, addiction, PTSD & accumulative occupational trauma exposure can feel overwhelming, confusing, & exhausting.
I offer a safe, compassionate space to explore your story, reconnect to your sense of self, & work towards emotional processing. Together, we can make sense of your experiences, support your nervous system, cultivate self-compassion and create meaningful shifts.
Together, we will focus on emotional organization, acceptance, and integration, empowering you to embrace self-compassion, cultivate acceptance, and foster empowerment. My goal is to help you increase emotional awareness and make conscious, positive changes that align with your authentic sense of self.
I invite you to explore your inner world in a space that values your unique experiences, your growth, and your emotional well-being.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
Overly emotional...too soft for your own good...do these judgements sound so familiar? If yes, you have found your tribe! I am passionate about working with individuals whose unique personality traits characterize them as highly sensitive. My clients are highly intuitive and experience life and emotions profoundly. Many of my clients, despite their best efforts, find themselves stuck and struggling with ineffective coping patterns to help manage symptoms from traumatic experiences, anxiety, self-doubt, grief, and loss. I strive to help clients reestablish a flexible and compassionate connection with their inner-most voice while developing skills to weather even the most volatile emotional storm - empowering clients to reclaim the rich and meaningful life they want.

Hayllie Durette
Registered Psychotherapist, DATI, Registered Psychotherapist
I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, men’s mental health, and neurodivergence. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, or struggling to make sense of your experiences, therapy can be a place to slow down, gain clarity, and find a way forward that actually works for you. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are without pressure to “have it all figured out.” I understand that for many, opening up or finding the right words can feel challenging. We’ll move at your pace, in a way that feels comfortable, practical, and respectful to your needs.

Client Care, Atrium
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
When someone is struggling, I try to understand the full story of their experiences rather than focusing only on symptoms or labels. I’m often curious about how early experiences, family dynamics, and past relationships may have shaped the way someone sees themselves, others, and the world around them. Unresolved childhood experiences can play a powerful role in how we interpret situations and respond emotionally, so part of our work may involve gently exploring those patterns and understanding how they continue to influence the present.

Burlington is one of the most affluent cities in the Greater Toronto Area — situated between Hamilton and Oakville along the western shore of Lake Ontario — with a largely White, upper-middle-class population and a therapy culture shaped by the stresses of high-income suburban family life, corporate careers, and the pressure to maintain prosperity across generations. Joseph Brant Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving the Alton Village, Tansley, and Millcroft neighborhoods. Burlington's relative homogeneity is changing as immigration diversifies the population, with growing South Asian and East Asian communities beginning to shape a broader range of therapy demand. The city's proximity to Hamilton's therapy ecosystem and the broader GTA network means specialist care is generally accessible for those willing to travel or use telehealth.
