Registered Social Worker, MSW, BA, RSW
Do you feel overwhelmed by your emotions, trapped in cycles of unhealthy behaviours, or the impacts of past trauma? Do your emotions lead you to engage in patterns you wish you could break? I can understand these feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, and what seems to be uncontrollable, and I'm here to make them easier. If you are looking for clarity on why you feel this way and want to regain a sense of control or stability, now might be the time to reach out to a therapist who can help. Understanding your emotional and behavioural patterns is the first step toward change, and I am here to guide you through this process.

Bonny Kaman Li
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
I believe therapy should be a place where people feel safe enough to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with themselves—often for the first time in a long while. Many individuals come to therapy carrying invisible burdens: unprocessed trauma, chronic stress, cultural or family expectations, or the exhaustion of always having to hold it together.
My work is grounded in a trauma-informed, emotion-focused approach that honours each person’s lived experience, cultural context, and nervous system. I integrate evidence-based modalities such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and somatic-based interventions to help clients understand their emotional patterns, heal from past experiences, and develop practical strategies for daily life.
I value collaboration, transparency, and respect in the therapeutic relationship. Therapy is not about fixing or forcing change, but about creating the conditions for clarity, resilience, and self-trust to emerge. My goal is to support clients in building a more grounded, compassionate relationship with themselves and moving forward with greater confidence and emotional balance.

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!

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Life can feel overwhelming, confusing, or exhausting—especially when stress, anxiety, health concerns, or relationship challenges start to pile up. Psychotherapy offers a confidential, non-judgmental space to slow things down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and develop practical ways to cope.
Working with a trained therapist can help you manage anxiety, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, chronic illness (including cancer-related stress), relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about building insight, emotional regulation, and skills that support real change in your daily life.
Whether you’re feeling stuck, burned out, emotionally reactive, or simply unsure how to move forward, therapy can help you gain clarity, strengthen resilience, and reconnect with a sense of balance and direction. Sessions are collaborative and paced to meet you where you are, with tools you can use beyond the therapy room.
Reaching out for support isn’t a weakness—it’s a practical and intentional step toward better mental health and overall well-being. You don’t have to manage everything on your own. With the right support, it’s possible to feel more grounded, capable, and aligned with the life you want to live.

Robert M. Lee
Registered Psychotherapist
You feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, anxiety, or self-doubt, struggling to trust yourself or move forward. Maybe past wounds linger, creative blocks hold you back, or the pressure to perform—on stage, in relationships, or within yourself—feels exhausting. You may have glimpsed deeper awareness through dreams, meditation, or spirituality but find it hard to integrate. My approach blends Zen, Taoism, and Jungian analysis with mindfulness, depth psychology, and somatic awareness to help you uncover unconscious patterns, build self-trust, and reconnect with clarity and purpose. Change isn’t about forcing yourself forward but understanding what holds you back—allowing transformation to happen naturally.
