Angie Kingma (Mindfulness for Health)
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Let’s be honest...life can be a lot. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck in old patterns, or just trying to make sense of... everything, you’re in the right place.
Whatever brings you here, I truly believe that life’s ups and downs (and even those curveballs we never asked for) can offer hidden opportunities to learn, grow, and reconnect with what matters most. Together, we’ll work on restoring a sense of balance, clarity, and presence in your life, because you deserve to feel more grounded, empowered, and like yourself again.
We’ll start with a thoughtful assessment to understand what’s going on beneath the surface, and then dive into the areas that matter most to you. You’ll gain insight into how past experiences and thinking habits may be impacting your present, and learn how to shift out of stuck places. We'll also explore your values, strengths, and passions so you can start moving in a direction that actually feels good.
I bring over 25 years of experience as a therapist, and just as importantly, a down-to-earth, compassionate approach. You’ll be met with warmth, humour when it helps, and zero judgment. I know that therapy can feel vulnerable, so building a strong, genuine connection is always my top priority.
It would be a true honour and privilege to work with you. I bring humour, depth, years of experience, authenticity and heart to the therapy room..and I welcome all the parts of you. Guiding growth with curiosity, compassion, real talk & a sprinkle of science.
Curious if we’d be a good fit? I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation so we can chat and see if the vibe feels right.
And if you're looking to dive in deeper, feel free to ask me about my Therapy Intensives, an accelerated option for those ready to make meaningful shifts, fast.

Britney Victor
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Your days look successful to others, yet anxiety races beneath the surface. You lie awake replaying conversations, feel your chest tighten in meetings, and wonder why simple tasks drain all your energy. You may catch yourself scrolling, overeating, or snapping at people you love, then feel guilty. Deep down you want calm, confidence, and relationships that don’t exhaust you. You’re ready to understand where these stress loops come from and finally learn skills to break them so you can show up at work, at home, and for yourself with steady ease.
I blend evidence-based tools—CBT, DBT, mindfulness—with a warm, anti-oppressive lens. Together we map the patterns driving your stress, teach body-based calming skills, challenge rigid thoughts, and practise boundary-setting. Every session ends with a concrete exercise so progress feels immediate and measurable.
Therapy is a big step, and fit matters. Visit my website and book a free 15-minute consult, or tap the email button, and I’ll get back to you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us via phone or email. If I’m not the best fit, I’ll connect you to someone who is. Relief starts with one step; take it today.

David Rockman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW RSW BA psych hon
In uncertain times, it is common to feel overwhelmed by difficulties and feel stuck in a cycle of challenges in the 6 general arenas of human experience: habituated repertoire of thoughts, emotions, soma, behaviours, situations, and environment. Many of the problems we experience are not our fault, but they can still have a significant impact on our mental health and well-being. As a psychotherapist with 27 years of experience in Toronto, I have helped countless individuals effectively and quickly resolve a variety of issues, including self-other relationship stressors, trauma from sexual abuse, emotional regulation, feelings of betrayal and abandonment, social anxiety, self-blame, self-esteem issues, motivation problems, and mis-transits of anger, shame and grief.

Lindsay Renaud (EMDR, Trauma, Relationship, ADHD)
Registered Psychotherapist, H.B.A., B.Ed., M.A., EMDR
Not sure where to start or if therapy will help? Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like something’s missing? Trauma, grief, relationships, ADHD, anxiety, career stress—it’s a lot to carry alone and it can drain our battery. I understand what it's like to sit in the client's seat with these feelings and thoughts and I am here to help. Think of me as your GPS—you set the destination, and I’ll help guide you, redirecting as needed along the way. I specialize in trauma, using approaches like EMDR and IFS to help you make sense of your past and lower the distress levels of those memories.
Further, being married/together for 15 years, I understand the complexities that relationships can bring. If you're looking for relationship counselling, I help couples improve communication and conflict through practical tools and strategies (using Gottman and EFT). Or maybe 4 walls are not for you? I also offer walk-and-talk therapy & animal therapy.
If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Please reach out to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation—I look forward to walking alongside you on your path, however that may look.
