Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
Living with chronic illness, ADHD, or autism can feel like moving through a world that wasn’t built with your needs in mind. The pressure to mask, push through, or repeatedly explain yourself can lead to immense grief, anxiety, depression, burnout, loneliness, and a deep sense of feeling unseen and misunderstood.
As a neurodivergent therapist with lived experience of chronic pain, and a parent to neurodivergent children, I understand the emotional and physical toll daily life can take. This is why I offer a therapeutic space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment or pressure to perform. Instead of seeing chronic illness and neurodivergence as something to be “fixed,” I believe people often need supportive tools and thoughtful guidance to live in ways that honour their unique needs and nervous systems.
My work is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, guided by empathy and curiosity. Together, we move beyond temporary symptom relief by uncovering how past relationships and experiences shape your current reality (thoughts, behaviour, emotions). This approach fosters insight and self-awareness in an accepting environment, opening the door to lasting, meaningful change.
I invite you to reach out for free 30-minute virtual consultation to see if we are the right fit for your therapeutic journey.

Accepting NEW clients - Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you’re carrying a lot on your own?

Corrine Wilde, Wilde Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Psychotherapy can change your life subtly and/or profoundly. The more we explore ourselves, the better we are able to make unique changes to our lives that create self-awareness, strength, creavitivity, joy, contentment and resilency. We all want to live our lives fully with purpose and meaning, healthy relationships and success. Most people know what they want in life, but are unsure of how to get what they want. Focusing on a positive future and moving towards it can be scary but ultimately it is a worthy endeavour.
