Schizophrenia
Tamara Daniszewski
Registered Social Worker, M.ED, MSW, RSW
Schizophrenia can impact thoughts, emotions and daily functioning, but it doesn’t erase one’s identity or potential for a meaningful life. Therapy offers support with coping skills, insight, emotional processing and family education, often alongside medical treatment. With care and consistency, stability is possible.

Schizophrenia
Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Schizophrenia affects the sufferer’s ability to determine what is real and what is not. This experience is known as “psychoses”, and can take the form of hallucinations (sensory experiences that go against reality; such as hearing people talking to you who are not there), and delusions (a strong belief that does not correspond with reality). Unlike what is depicted in pop-media sufferers of schizophrenia often experience auditory hallucinations over visual ones.

Schizophrenia
Arzu Ferguson
Psychologist, M.Sc., RP, C. Psych.
I provide psychological support for individuals experiencing schizophrenia or other psychotic symptoms, including changes in thinking, perception, or emotional experience. These experiences can feel confusing, distressing, and isolating, both for individuals and their families.
Therapy focuses on providing a structured, supportive space to better understand these experiences, strengthen coping strategies, and improve day-to-day functioning. I work collaboratively with clients (and, when appropriate, their support systems) to enhance stability, reduce distress, and support overall well-being.

Schizophrenia
Cynthia Sewell, Embrace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CH CHyp
Schizophrenia is a severe and persistent mental illness, however, life is not over. Support is key. Medication can be very important and therapy can also provide a safe space to talk about how you mind is processing the world. It is different and that's ok.

Yasmin Rombola-Bacchus
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist, Dipl. Psych.
I utilize CBT for psychosis which can help individuals recognize and challenge delusions or hallucinations while fostering better coping skills for stress and social situations. I can also support emotional regulation, help build stronger relationships, encourage adherence to treatment plans, and create a foundation for improved stability and quality of life.

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.
