Now Accepting New Clients (in-person & virtually) - Have you felt a sense of disconnection from the world or people around you? Are struggling to navigate and understand the aspects of your experience that cause struggle and inner turmoil? Through a compassionate, non-judgemental approach, I will encourage you to open up and get curious about your inner world as a human being. I will support you as you understand, accept, love, and honour all aspects of yourself and your history. By understanding our personal history, we can reclaim the narrative about our experiences on the path to personal transformation.
By the end of our sessions, you will recognize your strengths as building blocks and your obstacles as learning opportunities. After all, your perception and connection to the world reflect how you see yourself, so let’s work from the inside out.

Shasha Weir
Counsellor/Therapist, RSSW
Healing is a journey that should be nurturing, safe, and empowering. Oftentimes, you may feel helpless, hopeless, and stuck in a place that you cannot escape from. With all the unmanageable emotions, fears, and thoughts that play in your mind over and over, it may seem as though there is no end and no relief. Therapy will allow you to navigate, understand and provide clarity that leads to peace of mind and optimal living.
I believe in a client-centered, partnership, and holistic approach to healing, utilizing and maximizing your own strengths, and using that to attain treatment goals. I specialize in children, youth, individual, family, and couples therapy. Working together as a team, we will focus on you the client, in healing the mind, body, and soul.
Asking for help is not easy. However, I'm glad you are here! It takes courage, vulnerability, and strength; all needed for a successful therapeutic journey. Book a connection session today! During this call, we will get to know each other and figure out if we are a good fit before moving forward. Let's take this healing journey together.

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!

Ivan Pityk
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
My philosophy is that the past builds our being through the experiences we had and the lessons we learned. These experiences help to shape our sense of meaning and personal fulfilment through our journey. Therefore, I believe that it is important to explore the past and see how it shapes our experience in relation to ourselves and others. I incorporate this perspective in my work with clients and help to emphasize the power of choice, explore unmet needs and help to explore important areas for boundary setting.
