Maddie Serhal - Limitless Living Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, MC, BSc
Hey there!
My name is Maddie - and if you're looking for a relatable therapist with whom you will likely share many laughs, keep reading!
I work with teens, young adults, students, and adults of all ages in person in Hamilton, and virtually all across Ontario.
Therapy can be both challenging and delightful, we can make jokes, tune into the language of the body, be creative, cry, be silly, and also have deep, profound moments of self-discovery.
During our sessions, I aim to bring a mix of compassion, warmth, honesty, humour, and a touch of play to our work together. Life can be an interesting rollercoaster, full of ups, downs, and intense loop-de-loops that make you feel nauseous, and you don't have to ride it alone. If you're keen to keep growing and deepening your self-awareness, I’d be happy to hop on this wild ride alongside you.

Angelica Esposito - AE Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, EMDR Therapist
Hi, I’m Angelica, a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist, and EMDR therapist.
I specialize in working with individuals facing anxiety, stress, and those navigating significant life transitions, trauma, and cultural complexities. I work closely with newcomers, first- and second-generation Canadians. Having lived in multiple countries, I have a deep understanding of the challenges of cultural adjustment and integration.
With training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), I provide an effective method for processing trauma and reducing emotional distress. Along with narrative and solution-focused therapy, I help clients explore their stories, identify strengths, and develop practical tools for healing and growth.
My practice is grounded in a trauma-informed, feminist, and anti-oppressive approach, because I believe in creating a space where everyone feels heard, supported, and valued.
As someone living with Type 1 diabetes, I bring a personal understanding of the challenges of managing chronic conditions. This experience shapes how I practice, offering a compassionate, empathetic perspective that helps my clients feel validated in their journeys.
I prioritize creating a welcoming environment. My office has an all-gender bathroom, is wheelchair accessible, and offers free parking, ensuring that everyone feels comfortable.
I also offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation, so you can ask questions and get a sense of whether we’re a good fit—no pressure, just a chance to connect and explore how I can support you! 🙂

Hamilton is undergoing rapid transformation from a steel city to an emerging arts, tech, and health-sciences hub, and therapists here frequently work with the tension between a proud working-class identity and the changes brought by gentrification and urban renewal. McMaster University and McMaster University Medical Centre — one of Canada's leading health research institutions — provide institutional mental health resources and an active clinical training ecosystem. The city's significant immigrant population from South Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America drives demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists. Hamilton's affordability relative to Toronto has made it a destination for those priced out of the GTA, and therapists regularly address the adjustment challenges of relocation and community rebuilding.
