Gwen Shandroski, Expressive Arts Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc, S-LP(C), R.P.
I help my clients/patients feel comfortable to begin therapy. I have gone through this process as a client and as a therapist many times. Feeling understood and having someone help you take a look at what is going on can be very refreshing and provide some hope. My background in speech-language pathology has prepared me to work with clients who have difficulty expressing themselves. Expressive arts therapy is an alternative way to reach feelings and represent the experience you're having.

Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma.
No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. Gottman (couples) and Post Induction Therapy training (relational/developmental trauma)
I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best.
If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit!
SE focuses on regulating your nervous system.
With SE work trauma responses are completed and energy is released back into the system and with this the resolution and disappearance of physical complaints, including headaches, digestive problems, and pain syndromes can be resolved, and emotional regulation can be restored.
I will teach you how to work with your stress response - the body's innate alarm system in response to a perceived danger, also called the "Fight or Flight" response.
It is highly adaptive to danger and human survival when threats are physical, but less so when threats are psychological, or imaginary, among other somatic and relational skills.
I have been trained under Dr Abi Blakeslee part of Dr Peter A Levine's legacy group out of California for Somatic Experiencing and the late great Dr Bud Feder the author of Beyond the Hot Seat was on my dissertation committee overseeing a phenomenological study of the effectiveness of a gestalt therapy group I created to reduce stress in working informal caregivers of the elderly. I named the group process Stressed WOW (We Overloaded with Work).
Gestalt therapy is an extremely complex psychotherapy, too complex to describe in this short space.
The power of its effectiveness can only be experienced.
Most present day therapies have stolen bits and pieces of its praxis.
Get the whole again with a holistic, here and now, experiential therapy.
I am here for you... I've got your six!

Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you find yourself constantly caught between the pull of the past and the worries of the future? Many people describe feeling like they’re moving through life on autopilot — weighed down by overthinking, low mood, or the pressure to keep everyone else happy. You might notice people-pleasing tendencies, difficulty maintaining boundaries, or a pattern of overgiving that leaves you drained, ungrounded, and disconnected from yourself. If this sounds familiar, we may be a good fit.
Here, you’ll find a warm, calm space where your feelings are validated and your voice genuinely matters. Together, we’ll explore what fuels your distress and gently uncover the deeper experiences and patterns shaping your emotional world. Alongside this, we’ll build practical tools to regulate your nervous system, ease your symptoms in the present, and help you move through life with greater clarity, steadiness, and a growing sense of inner safety.
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.

Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), Dipl. Psych.
I see therapy as a sacred space that offers clients the opportunity to pause from the constant distractions life presents to engage and reflect on our inner and outer worlds. While this process may at times feel challenging, or even painful, it can also lead to peaceful and celebratory reflections. I am committed to ensuring that clients feel seen, heard, and respected and that our conversations lead to unique transformations achieved through empowerment.

Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
I am a white-passing, Middle-Eastern, bisexual, cis-gender, neurotypical woman and a first-generation immigrant and settler (who came to Canada as a refugee, during childhood).
I’ve also lived through experiences of trauma, displacement, mental illness, divorce, chronic illness and chronic pain.
So, I know what it’s like to feel lost, confused, doubtful, overwhelmed, frustrated, misunderstood, lonely, exhausted, and just not good enough! I know the effort and energy it takes to step into and embrace a journey of self-discovery, healing and growth, not knowing where it might lead. I also know how incredibly transformative it can be!
That must be why you're here too - ready and looking for something in your life to change for the better. I'm here to help!
