Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel tense, overwhelmed, or unable to slow down? Many of us grow up learning to push through pressure, ignore signals from our bodies, or treat busyness as a badge of honor. Over time, chronic stress can impact your energy, focus, and well-being.
These feelings are not a flaw—they are signals that your mind and body need care. What matters is how you respond when stress arises. Together, we can explore what’s driving your tension, develop strategies to regulate your nervous system, and help you feel more grounded, balanced, and lighter over time. You experience stress for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
Are you feeling burnt out, having trouble concentrating, or experiencing forgetfulness, restlessness or problems focusing? Are you experiencing headaches, back or chest pain, lightheadedness or pins and needles? Do you feel the urge to pull back socially? Smoking or drinking more? Angry outbursts or unexplained crying? You may be at your stress threshold, and stress left unchecked or ineffectively managed can adversely affect your quality of life.
You have found your tribe!
I support individuals like you and most Canadians struggling to cope with stress. Unchecked or mismanaged attempts become rigid expressions of control, and pleasurable activities and social connections become limited and restricted, leaving one to feel isolated, alone and overwhelmed.
Working together, we will develop personalized coping strategies that transform your functional relationship with stressful situations - what triggers you and how you react. We will strive to cultivate a flexible approach, so stressful situations have less impact and influence on your life. I aim to help you feel empowered to drop the struggle against yourself and begin to find freedom and fulfillment.

Victoria Jacobs
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P.
Stress can feel different depending on the stage of life you are in. For adolescents, it often shows up around school pressure, social dynamics, identity questions, and balancing expectations at home and with friends. For emerging adults, the transition into post-secondary life can bring stress about academics, independence, friendships, dating, and figuring out who you are away from home. For young adults, stress often comes from balancing early career demands, relationships, financial responsibilities, and the shift into greater independence. In therapy we slow things down and make sense of what your stress is telling you. Together we look at how it shows up in your body, thoughts, and daily life, then practise tools that help regulate your nervous system and give you space to choose how you want to respond.

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.
