Britney Victor
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Your days look successful to others, yet anxiety races beneath the surface. You lie awake replaying conversations, feel your chest tighten in meetings, and wonder why simple tasks drain all your energy. You may catch yourself scrolling, overeating, or snapping at people you love, then feel guilty. Deep down you want calm, confidence, and relationships that don’t exhaust you. You’re ready to understand where these stress loops come from and finally learn skills to break them so you can show up at work, at home, and for yourself with steady ease.
I blend evidence-based tools—CBT, DBT, mindfulness—with a warm, anti-oppressive lens. Together we map the patterns driving your stress, teach body-based calming skills, challenge rigid thoughts, and practise boundary-setting. Every session ends with a concrete exercise so progress feels immediate and measurable.
Therapy is a big step, and fit matters. Visit my website and book a free 15-minute consult, or tap the email button, and I’ll get back to you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us via phone or email. If I’m not the best fit, I’ll connect you to someone who is. Relief starts with one step; take it today.

Robert Stanford
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
If you’re feeling stuck in patterns that keep repeating, anxiety, conflict, disconnection, shame, or trauma reactions that won’t let go, you’re not alone. I work with individuals, couples, and families who want life to feel steadier, relationships to feel safer, and emotions to feel more manageable. My style is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed, with a strong focus on helping you feel heard, respected, and supported while we build practical steps toward change.

Jessica Batres - Raices Flourish
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Feeling stretched too thin? You're not alone.
If you're dealing with anxiety, burnout, or the exhausting cycle of perfectionism and people-pleasing, I get it. Life transitions—whether it's becoming a parent, navigating career shifts, or simply trying to figure out who you are outside of everyone's expectations—can leave you feeling depleted and disconnected.
Maybe you've checked all the boxes but still feel empty. Or you're so busy managing everyone else's emotions that you've lost track of your own. Anxiety shows up as overthinking, second-guessing, never feeling like you've done enough. Depression makes everything feel harder than it should be. And burnout? It's that deep exhaustion that rest doesn't fix.
Therapy doesn't have to be one more thing on your to-do list. It's a space where you can actually breathe, sort through what's happening, and build a life that feels like yours—not just one you're surviving. Whether you're wrestling with parenting challenges, trying to break free from old patterns, or simply need someone who sees the weight you're carrying—I'm here.
You don't have to keep doing this alone.

Moeez Munshi
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying, Clinical Intern
I believe in the power of personal growth and self-discovery. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, respect, and a deep appreciation for each person's unique journey. I understand that life's challenges, whether it’s navigating relationships, dealing with past trauma, or managing anxiety, can feel overwhelming. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where individuals can explore their experiences, uncover their strengths, and work through difficulties at their own pace. Together, we will build a path forward that fosters healing, hope, and resilience.
I offer a safe, compassionate space for individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Using a blend of evidence-based approaches, including cognitive-behavioural and humanistic techniques, I work collaboratively with clients to help them gain clarity, overcome
challenges, and develop practical strategies for lasting change.
If you're feeling unsure or facing challenges, I invite you to get in touch. I'm here to listen, answer any questions you may have, and support you in your journey. If we’re not the right fit, I can help connect you with the right resources and guide you toward finding the support you deserve.

Krishna Vora
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Many people who reach out for therapy are used to carrying a lot on their own. They may appear capable on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted internally.
My practice focuses on helping adults understand their emotional patterns, reduce overwhelm, and develop practical strategies that actually work in everyday life. I take a neurodiversity-affirming approach that recognizes differences in how people think, process emotions, and navigate the world.
Clients often seek support for ADHD, anxiety, burnout, trauma, perfectionism, and self-esteem challenges. Therapy is collaborative and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment. Together we work toward building clarity, resilience, and sustainable ways of coping.

James "Jamie" Myslik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Hi! I've been a practicing counsellor for eighteen years working with folks from all walks of life with all the challenges that life throws at them, such as work stress, life transitions, relationship stress, bereavement and loss, ageing, histories of trauma, concerns around sex and sexuality, and much more. Oftentimes those issues show up through anxiety, depression, shame, anger, social anxiety, or just feeling overwhelmed. I like to help folks connect to their emotions, deal with their stresses, and generally build the life they're looking for. In feedback from my clients I'm told I'm compassionate, non-judgemental, easy to open up to, and offer a good balance of working with the head and the heart. I also bring a lot of humour to sessions.
While I'm a generalist practitioner, I often work with 2SLGBTQIA+ folks (and am queer myself), men, and people looking to explore their emotional selves.
I currently offer individual therapy for adults online, and can offer walk-and-talk and nature therapy if our locations allow.
