Joel Mayer
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv
Specializing in anxiety and OCD! Do you feel stuck in your anxiety? Are intrusive thoughts or memories bothering you and getting in the way of your life? Perhaps your anxiety is also affecting your ability to be present and to function in the ways that you would like to in your relationships, work, or school life. Maybe you have coping strategies that used to work in the past but are no longer as effective for you now. If this is the case, do these issues then lead you to experiencing feelings of shame, wondering if there is something wrong with you, or questioning if things will ever get better?
You are not alone and change is possible! Anxious thoughts and feelings do not have to dictate your life and relationships. Together, we will work on learning skills to help you decrease your anxious feelings, get unstuck from your thoughts, develop more helpful coping strategies, and get back into the relationships and activities that matter to you.
My commitment is to come alongside you with compassion and care to offer direct, practical support that can make a difference now. I utilize a mindful, values-based approach to help you get back to meaningfully engaging in your life – whatever that looks like for you! I would be honored to work with you as you seek to live your life more fully.

Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma.
No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. Gottman (couples) and Post Induction Therapy training (relational/developmental trauma)
I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best.
If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit!
SE focuses on regulating your nervous system.
With SE work trauma responses are completed and energy is released back into the system and with this the resolution and disappearance of physical complaints, including headaches, digestive problems, and pain syndromes can be resolved, and emotional regulation can be restored.
I will teach you how to work with your stress response - the body's innate alarm system in response to a perceived danger, also called the "Fight or Flight" response.
It is highly adaptive to danger and human survival when threats are physical, but less so when threats are psychological, or imaginary, among other somatic and relational skills.
I have been trained under Dr Abi Blakeslee part of Dr Peter A Levine's legacy group out of California for Somatic Experiencing and the late great Dr Bud Feder the author of Beyond the Hot Seat was on my dissertation committee overseeing a phenomenological study of the effectiveness of a gestalt therapy group I created to reduce stress in working informal caregivers of the elderly. I named the group process Stressed WOW (We Overloaded with Work).
Gestalt therapy is an extremely complex psychotherapy, too complex to describe in this short space.
The power of its effectiveness can only be experienced.
Most present day therapies have stolen bits and pieces of its praxis.
Get the whole again with a holistic, here and now, experiential therapy.
I am here for you... I've got your six!

Azin Heydari
Registered Psychotherapist, RP; MA
I work alongside you on this self-exploratory journey, not only showing curiosity about the thoughts that shape your emotional world but also the nervous system patterns held in your body. Real change occurs when the mind and body begin communicating differently, and I will collaborate with you to explore this process with care, curiosity, and evidence-based tools. My approach is warm, relational, and grounded in trauma-informed methods that create space for deep emotional work at a pace that feels safe. If you’re ready to understand your patterns, reconnect with yourself, and find lasting relief—not quick fixes—I am here to support your healing through this process.

Cimberly R Nesker
Registered Psychotherapist, B.A., MSc., PG Dip, CCC, CRPO
It is my belief that therapy is needed, by almost everyone, at some point in their life. Having someone who is an outside, objective advocate is often the first step to greater understanding of ourselves, our concerns and our worries.

For our first meeting there will be no charge - an opportunity to check out the chemistry. Is there a fit? I use an eclectic blend of modalities / tools and a respectful dose of intuition.
