Melissa Letourneau
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
My approach is grounded in authenticity, trust, and often humour. I believe you have the wisdom to navigate life’s challenges and I strive to help empower you to facilitate change in therapy. Exploring your social anxiety in therapy can help identify how anxiety is manifesting itself and work to minimize the disruptive patterns it provokes in your life. I work with individuals, couples, children and families offering a free consultation to ensure we are a good fit. I carry a systemic lens, exploring the way culture, community and family shape our experiences and aspirations. I am committed to strength-based and anti-oppressive practice in my work. I recognize the importance and responsibility I have as a therapist, to address the systemic inequalities impacting clients in their lives.

Diana Wamsteeker
Registered Social Worker, MSW RSW
I support clients experiencing social anxiety, including fear of judgment, self-consciousness, avoidance of social situations, and difficulty feeling at ease in interpersonal settings. Social anxiety can impact relationships, work, school, and everyday interactions, often leading to isolation or ongoing self-criticism. My approach is supportive and practical, helping you better understand the patterns that maintain anxiety while gradually building confidence and tolerance in social situations. Together, we work on reducing avoidance, strengthening self-compassion, and developing tools that help you feel more grounded, authentic, and comfortable in connection with others.
