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.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Schizophrenia affects the sufferer’s ability to determine what is real and what is not. This experience is known as “psychoses”, and can take the form of hallucinations (sensory experiences that go against reality; such as hearing people talking to you who are not there), and delusions (a strong belief that does not correspond with reality). Unlike what is depicted in pop-media sufferers of schizophrenia often experience auditory hallucinations over visual ones.

Yasmin Rombola-Bacchus
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist, Dipl. Psych.
I utilize CBT for psychosis which can help individuals recognize and challenge delusions or hallucinations while fostering better coping skills for stress and social situations. I can also support emotional regulation, help build stronger relationships, encourage adherence to treatment plans, and create a foundation for improved stability and quality of life.

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.

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.

Mississauga is one of Canada's largest cities and a major commercial hub anchored by multinational corporate headquarters along its City Centre corridor, creating sustained demand for therapists specializing in workplace stress, burnout, and the pressures of corporate culture. The city is exceptionally diverse — with large South Asian, Caribbean, and East Asian populations among the most multicultural in Canada — and multilingual therapists offering culturally grounded care are especially well represented. Trillium Health Partners Credit Valley Hospital provides institutional mental health services, with a private practice community serving Cooksville, Port Credit, and Erin Mills. Many Mississauga residents also access therapy in Toronto or through telehealth, given the city's proximity to the Greater Toronto Area's broader therapy ecosystem.
