Cynthia Sewell, Embrace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CH CHyp
Psychosis can be disruptive to life. It is a symptom. In my experience, drug induced psychosis is very common and not often considered. I see this frequently as the result of substance use.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are experiencing psychosis, you may feel frightened, confused, or unsure of what is real. You might notice changes in perception, unusual thoughts, hearing or seeing things others do not, or difficulty organizing your thinking. These experiences can feel isolating and overwhelming, and you may worry about their implications for your future.
At Selah Counselling, we approach psychosis with calm, clinical care, and compassion. Our first priority is safety and stabilization. We collaborate with medical providers when appropriate, as medication and psychiatric support are often essential components of treatment. In therapy, we focus on grounding skills, strengthening reality testing, reducing stressors, and building consistent routines that support stability. We also help you process the emotional impact of these experiences so you can move forward with greater clarity and confidence. With proper support and ongoing care, many people experience meaningful improvement and restored functioning.

Kitchener — often referenced alongside Waterloo as part of the Waterloo Region — is at the centre of Canada's most significant technology hub outside Toronto, home to the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University, and dozens of major tech startups and scale-ups, creating persistent demand for therapists who work with innovation-sector burnout, high-stakes career pressure, and the psychological costs of startup culture. The region's growing immigrant population from South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East adds cultural diversity to therapy demand that the private therapy community is still catching up to reflect. Grand River Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside an active private therapy community. Kitchener's rapid diversification — beyond its German-heritage Oktoberfest identity — shapes a dynamic and evolving therapy culture.
