ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Do you ever feel "stuck" in your daily life or unsure of how to go forward in a way that makes you happy? Do you feel as if your past experiences are dragging you down, or as if you're looking out the window into a fog that won't lift? Is there a relationship with yourself or others that you'd like to strengthen? We can discuss the steps that have led you to this point, as well as the steps you would like to take in the future to improve your well-being.

Jamie Clahane | Psychotherapy & Pastoral Care (virtual)
Registered Psychotherapist, MTS, RP
Thanks for taking the time to learn a little more about me. I am a registered psychotherapist providing pastoral psychotherapy for people across Ontario. This means I specialize in integrating clinical counselling and spiritual care. Why is this important? It is important because healing involves the whole person. Yes, healing involves emotional & cognitive processing and integration around unresolved wounds in one's life, but the deepest healing involves more. When we face personal struggles or crises it is an invitation to find deeper meaning and hope in our lives. It is here that I provide Christian counselling to help build a foundation of wellness and hope. In terms of psychotherapy, I focus on healing deeper issues that contribute to mental health symptoms. People may be struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or more complex presentations, such as obsessive compulsions, addiction patterns, complicated grief, emotional dysregulation, and more. Instead of simply learning how to manage symptoms, my approach is to gently uncover and work to heal deeper root issues underneath these symptoms that often include shame and self-rejection, unresolved grief, emotional injuries or trauma, for example. As we recover we can restore a healthy sense of self, a deepened faith, and a restored hope for one's life.

Andreea Mota
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Are you worried about your child or teen's anxiety, OCD, emotional outbursts, or difficulty focusing at school and home? Maybe they're stuck in cycles of worry, checking, or needing reassurance that something bad won't happen. You may be trying everything yet daily routines still feel stressful and unpredictable. Watching them struggle or shut down when emotions get too big can feel exhausting. Perhaps you've noticed signs of ADHD or anxious thinking that are harder to manage. You want to see them feel calmer, more capable, and able to get through their day. With the right support, real change is possible. I am here to help.
I work with children and teens experiencing anxiety, ADHD, OCD, emotional regulation difficulties, and behavioural challenges. I also support parents looking for practical guidance and reassurance. Families often come feeling overwhelmed and unsure of the next step. Together we focus on building structure, strengthening coping skills, and growing confidence.
Working with me feels calm, collaborative, and encouraging. I focus on building trust and creating a space where your child or teen feels comfortable expressing themselves at their own pace. You don't have to navigate these challenges alone. I offer a free consultation so we can talk about what your family needs and whether working together feels right.

Vanessa Gear
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Is your child or teen feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, ADHD, school challenges, or difficulty managing big emotions? Perhaps learning differences, neurodivergence, family conflict, or life transitions are creating stress at home or school. I work with children, teens, adults, and families who want a supportive space to better understand these challenges. Together, we focus on building emotional regulation, confidence, coping skills, and stronger relationships so clients feel more capable, understood, and supported in their daily lives.
I specialize in supporting children, teens, and families navigating ADHD, autism (ASD), anxiety, school issues, learning challenges, and life transitions. Using CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and experiential approaches, including play-based techniques, I help clients strengthen emotional regulation, build coping skills, and develop greater confidence and resilience
Behind every behaviour is a story waiting to be heard.

Together we’ll explore strengths, build practical tools, and create meaningful change so you can move forward with greater confidence and connection.

Does your child or teen, or young adult seem constantly worried, easily overwhelmed, or often down? Are focus, attention, or big emotions making daily life a struggle at home or school? Many young people face challenges like anxiety, OCD, ADHD, or depression that can leave them feeling “different” or not good enough. Whether you or your child is dealing with constant worries, low mood, difficulty regulating emotions, or challenges with attention and social connections, therapy can be a place for growth and healing. My goal is to help your child feel more confident, resilient, and equipped to thrive.

Brianne Roy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you find yourself questioning your relationships, your identity, or where your life is heading? You might be burned out from masking or holding it together, drained from a separation or life change, or noticing distance growing between you and your partner. Perhaps you're navigating neurodivergence, stuck in codependency, or grieving a life that didn't go as planned. You may not remember the last time you felt truly like yourself. But something in you is ready for change. You want to feel steady, understood, and clear about your next step. I can help you slow down, make sense of what's happening, and begin moving forward.
I work with adults, couples and families navigating anxiety, burnout, neurodivergence, codependency, identity exploration, relationship conflict and life transitions. I focus on attachment patterns, ADHD and Autism masking, premarital counselling, separation and divorce recovery, and supporting diverse identities and non-traditional relationship structures.
Clients come to me when they want a therapist who sees the full picture, not just the surface. Sessions are warm, collaborative, and never rushed. I meet you where you are and we work at your pace. You don't need the right words or a clear goal before reaching out. I offer a free consultation so we can explore whether working together feels right.

Do you and your partner keep having the same arguments without ever feeling heard or understood? Maybe communication quickly turns into conflict, trust has been broken, or you're navigating separation, divorce, or preparing for marriage. Stress, anxiety, or depression may also be affecting your relationship, leaving you feeling distant or frustrated. Maybe you know that something needs to change but aren’t sure where to start. If you want calmer conversations, stronger communication, and a relationship that feels more secure and connected, therapy can help you build the skills to get there.

I work with couples and adults navigating relationship challenges, including communication issues, infidelity, marital conflict, premarital counselling, divorce, and family stress. I also support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, and self-esteem concerns using practical, evidence-based tools.
Many couples begin therapy not because their relationship is failing, but because they want to strengthen it. Sessions with me are supportive, direct, and focused on real progress. Together we work on communication, conflict resolution, and breaking the patterns that keep relationships stuck so you can move forward with greater understanding and connection.

Jonathan Christink
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, BEd, MEd, Registered Psychotherapist
I tell every new client I meet with, "don't worry, just because we're meeting for the first time does not mean you're stuck with me." It's so important to find a good fit. This means that you are free to find a therapist that both specializes in why you're reaching out, but also one that you connect with on a personal level. If both of those criteria are not met then you probably won't find success. I'd love to connect, but please know that the pressure is off. If I'm not a great fit, we'll look to find a better one. Ultimately this is about you, and that's a good thing!

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.
