Rhoda Lalog
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, Qualifying
As an HR Professional with over 20 years in the corporate world, my passion has always been about empowering people and working as a team. As a consultant, mentor, coach and now a therapist, my gift is helping you see the authenticity of your own strengths and superpowers. I truly believe that each person has the inner wisdom to embark on a path of self-care, balance and harmony but sometimes we may get stuck and need help along the way. I believe my role is to support you in uncovering the layers of unconscious, old-patterned beliefs that may have temporarily clouded your ability to live your best life. Together, we can co-create a space that allows you to feel safe enough to be radically honest in order to make incremental steps forward for lasting change. We all want to feel a sense of peace and stability in our lives. Through your journey of self-discovery in our sessions, my aim will be to guide you into seeing new perspectives, offer you a non-judgmental space for emotional acceptance and provide you with practical tools that will empower you to experience your mind, body and spirit in a holistic way.

Registered Social Worker, BS.c, RSW
*IN-PERSON AVAILABILITY* I believe my lived experience with racism, parenting, grief and the challenges of adolescence infuse emphatic understanding into my practice. Life is hard!! I have also faced many of the challenges facing our children, teens and families today, and I bring my experiences into my clinical practice. The foundation of my work is steeped in hope; as I believe that hope is essential to effect positive outcomes and change.

Rubina Gogna
Registered Psychotherapist, B.A., M.A., Registered Psychotherapist
*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENT'S* I am so glad you are here and putting forth your needs first or maybe you are here because your friend or family member needs support or you are just tired of feeling this ‘Numb’ feeling and you want some answers as to “Why are you feeling this way? or asking yourself “Why don’t I feel happy or sad anymore?”, “Why am I like this?”, What is wrong with me? If I have made you question yourself right now then you are in the right place with the right person. As your therapist, I will help you explore all these feelings.
Iryna Gavrysh
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., CSAT
We all know what it feels like to experience overwhelm - when life just seems to get out of control. As individuals, we develop our own coping mechanisms to help us get through these difficult times. Things that where helpful at one point, often stop serving us in the long run. If you feel tired of what feels like an uphill battle, it might be worthwhile to consider how therapy can help you. This journey is is not easy, but it can be tremendously rewarding in the long run. Together, we can work on understanding how past experiences have shaped you into the person that you are today and how you can move forward with developing a greater sense of connection to yourself.

Alicia Gandhi
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)/Intern Therapist
Therapy is a space where you can put yourself first, dedicating time and attention to your needs in a demanding and chaotic world. Here, you can find solace in a safe and welcoming environment, where we focus entirely on you and your unique journey.
As a therapist, I am devoted to offering you kindness, compassion, and empathy as we navigate this transformative journey together. Drawing from the modalities of mindfulness, somatic, and narrative therapies, I believe in a holistic approach to healing. Whether you're seeking to understand and process the past or looking for guidance in figuring out the next steps in your life, I am here to support you at your own pace, without any restrictions or judgments. I want you to feel seen, heard, and deeply understood in our therapeutic journey. Together, we'll explore your emotions and thoughts, create space for self-compassion, and unearth the wisdom and resilience that reside within you. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy and collaboration. We'll work as a team, acknowledging your unique experiences and strengths as we seek to foster growth and empowerment.
Finding the right fit in therapy is essential, and I offer free consultations to ensure our partnership feels comfortable and aligned. Your journey to healing and transformation begins with that initial step, and I am here, ready to support you in every step.

Ashley Ferraccioli
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)/Intern Therapist
Life can be unpredictable and can present challenging experiences that are hard to navigate on our own. During these times, we can feel overwhelmed, especially if we experience high levels of stress or anxiety, struggle in managing emotions, or have experienced traumatic events in our life. Sometimes, we get so caught up in our negative thoughts that it can be hard to overtake them, and it may even feel impossible to stop them. They may even start interfering with your everyday life and you may lose sight of who you are.
I am passionate about helping people overcome challenges in their life, no matter what stage. I aim to support you by creating a calm and safe space where you can freely express yourself. Working collaboratively, I am committed to helping you explore and work through the challenges in your life.
I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we are a good fit. Please feel free to reach out – I am here to help! I look forward to beginning this journey with you.
