Renee Chu
Registered Psychotherapist, Hon. BA., RP
Are you feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, battling anxiety, ADHD, Autism, or struggling with intense emotions and impulses? Do you find navigating social cues and communication challenging, making it difficult to build fulfilling relationships? With compassion and curiosity, I invite you to explore the influences behind your recurring patterns, so that you can achieve deep transformation and satisfaction. As a BIPOC, trauma-informed therapist experienced in navigating neurodivergent challenges, complex relationship dynamics, family/intergenerational issues, and narcissistic abuse, I tailor my approach to personal and relational growth, trauma recovery, and identity exploration.
My priority is to empower you to develop confidence, resilience, balance and a positive self-image. My therapy practice is also rooted in a lifelong interest in the interplay of our common humanity and individual uniqueness. I use a bicultural and mindfulness lens to draw from my own process of self-discovery and emotional experience to meet you in yours.
Meaningful change is possible and I am here to walk that path with you at your pace. Together, we can reshape entrenched habits that no longer serve you and overcome barriers. Reach out to me for a complimentary 50-minute consultation to begin your journey towards a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. I know how difficult it can be to navigate the complexities of life, especially when trauma, relationships, or identity issues weigh heavy on your heart. I’m here to offer you a safe, affirming space where you can begin the process of healing, at your own pace, and on your own terms.
Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of sexual trauma, exploring your LGBTQ+ identity, or simply seeking to understand the patterns in your life that no longer serve you, I am committed to walking beside you through every step of the journey. You don’t have to do this alone. In therapy with me, you’ll experience a unique blend of evidence-based therapies, creative techniques, and a deeply empathetic, collaborative approach. I’ll work with you to find what resonates, whether it’s EMDR, psychodynamic exploration, somatic therapy, meditation, or a combination of tools that evolve as your needs shift. My work is rooted in trauma-informed care, meaning I always respect your pace, your boundaries, and your journey. We’ll create a space where your healing is not just possible, but empowered.
I offer flexible evening and late-night sessions, making it easier for you to prioritize your well-being—even with a busy schedule. My online practice allows me to meet you where you are, whether that’s through Zoom or telephone, and I’m fully committed to being present with you during our sessions—so you get the support you deserve when you need it most.
With over a decade in mental health, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of individuals. From my early days supporting Haitian refugees abroad, to my experience working with neurodiverse young adults and seniors, I have helped people from many walks of life navigate complex emotions, trauma, and identity. While I specialize in sexual trauma and LGBTQ+ care, I believe healing is unique to each person—and I’m here to support you, no matter your background, experience, or life stage. Whether you’re exploring deep emotional patterns, working through trauma, or seeking more connection in your relationships, I’m committed to adapting my approach to meet your needs and helping you move forward at your own pace.
If you’re ready to begin this journey, take the first step today—together, we’ll find the path that works best for you. I’m here to help you heal, grow, and thrive.

Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Living with anxiety or depression can feel overwhelming and isolating. The racing thoughts, constant worry, or heavy fog of low mood can make even simple daily tasks feel impossible. Many people describe feeling like they’re “going through the motions” while carrying an invisible weight. I understand how exhausting it can be to hold these struggles alone. Therapy offers a calm, supportive space where your feelings are validated, and your voice truly matters. Together, we’ll focus on practical tools to ease the weight of anxiety and depression in the present, while also exploring the deeper patterns, experiences, and emotions that may be contributing to your pain. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, hopeful, and connected to yourself and your life.
For many people, finding a therapist who truly understands their cultural background can be a challenge. As a South Asian therapist, I bring the richness of three cultures, four languages, and the rare perspective of being both a first- and third-generation immigrant. These lived experiences 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.
When you step into therapy with me, you’ll find a calm, safe, and judgment-free space where your voice is central. I will listen closely, honour the wisdom you already carry, and collaborate with you to create a plan that aligns with your personal goals and values. We will move at a pace that feels right for you.
Many clients come to me seeking not just relief from symptoms, but also a deeper understanding of themselves — how past experiences and trauma have shaped their worldview, patterns of responding, and sense of self. Therapy is a space to reflect, grow, and discover new ways of relating to yourself and others.
I have worked with individuals from many cultural, spiritual, and religious backgrounds, and I always strive to tailor therapy to each person’s unique context. I proudly stand as an ally to LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities, offering an inclusive and affirming space where every part of you is welcome. I’m here to answer any questions you may have, and when you’re ready, I would be honoured to walk alongside you on your path toward healing and wholeness.

Contemplative Psychotherapy
David Rockman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW RSW BA psych hon
In uncertain times, it is common to feel overwhelmed by difficulties and feel stuck in a cycle of challenges in the 6 general arenas of human experience: habituated repertoire of thoughts, emotions, soma, behaviours, situations, and environment. Many of the problems we experience are not our fault, but they can still have a significant impact on our mental health and well-being. As a psychotherapist with 27 years of experience in Toronto, I have helped countless individuals effectively and quickly resolve a variety of issues, including self-other relationship stressors, trauma from sexual abuse, emotional regulation, feelings of betrayal and abandonment, social anxiety, self-blame, self-esteem issues, motivation problems, and mis-transits of anger, shame and grief.
