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.

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.

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.

Kitchener — often referenced alongside Waterloo as part of the Waterloo Region — is at the center 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.
