HIV/AIDS
Kai Smith - Talk with Kai - Intimacy and Identity
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Qualifying)
An HIV diagnosis lands differently for everyone, and the emotional weight of it rarely gets the same attention as the medical side. I work with clients navigating disclosure, stigma, grief, changes in intimacy, and the particular isolation that can come with carrying something most people in your life don't fully understand. You don't have to educate me before we can get to work.

Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Living with HIV/AIDS or supporting someone who is can bring emotional, relational, medical, identity, and stigma-related stress. Therapy can offer a confidential and affirming space to process fear, grief, shame, relationships, health concerns, and resilience. My approach is supportive, nonjudgmental, and centred on your dignity and lived experience.

HIV/AIDS
Centre for Psychology and Emotional Health
Psychologist
On our team is Carmine who was an activist, advocate, outreach worker, and counsellor in the LGBTQ communities in Milano and in Toronto. He has experience working with individuals struggling with issues around coming out, body image and disordered eating, exploring their gender identity or sexual orientation, or newly diagnosed with HIV. He has also worked with couples navigating the complexity of same sex relationships.
In addition our team includes Bill who led a randomized-controlled trial of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for gay men living with HIV that was the first to indicate psychological improvements for mindfulness in this population. This study inspired him to explore integrating self-compassion more deeply into mindfulness-based interventions to better address harsh self-criticism, shame and inter-personal injuries, leading him to develop EFMT.
