Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), MACP, Bsc
I hold a space where each person can be fully seen, heard, and met exactly where they are, with empathy, curiosity, and zero judgment. As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, I understand how past experiences can shape the way we relate to ourselves, others, and the world. I integrate EMDR, CBT, DBT, EFT, Solution-Focused, narrative and psychodynamic approaches to support healing not just at the surface, but at a deep, meaningful level.
Therapy with me is not about fixing you, because you are not broken. It’s about helping you reconnect with your strengths, untangle painful patterns, and move toward the life you want to live. I work collaboratively, honouring your pace and your story, and tailoring our work to what truly resonates for you.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking to understand yourself better, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and care. If you're ready to explore what’s been holding you back—and what’s possible—I invite you to reach out. You don’t have to do this alone.

Shruti Patel
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, BSc.
If you're looking for someone to support you with better understanding yourself, I’m a warm, straightforward, and trustworthy therapist who shows up, human to human. I am here to meet you where you’re at and guide you on your journey, going step-by-step while offering you empathy and validation along the way. Whether you're experiencing difficulties with your relationships, emotional regulation skills, or feeling stuck day-to-day, I hope to create a safe space where we can explore parts of yourself, while also acknowledging the difficulties present in your life.
I am passionate about supporting and advocating for disabled, BIPOC, and 2sLGBTQIA+ clients. If you want to talk but are unsure of who to turn to, I hope that I can be the person you'd feel safe to approach for a chat. Let's have an open and honest dialogue where we can both freely express our authentic selves, together.

Aelea Syed
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Everyone has unique lived experiences which impact how one views themselves and the world around them. Regardless of your experiences and what you may be going through, I aim to create a safe and non-judgemental space for you to share your life story and work collaboratively to discover or rediscover your values and meaning in life. As a Registered Psychotherapist, one of my key passions is to help people discover their inner strengths and foster positive growth. I help clients struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, trauma-related concerns or coping with various life and role transitions.
I draw from integrative therapeutic techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindful Self-Compassion, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. My approach to therapy is compassionate and culturally sensitive and I strive to encourage a supportive environment to reach a place of healing and growth.
Taking the first step to reaching out can be difficult so I want to thank you for taking this step and beginning this journey towards healing. I hope to support you and make this process as comfortable as I can. Don't hesitate to contact me for a free consultation.

Leigh Berry
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, RHN
Overwhelmed, anxious and oh so tired? How many hours have you spent doing what you don't want to be doing? Or spinning in anxiety and fear about all the unknowns? Lost in the hustle of everyday life - fighting to get it all done, and caring for everyone else, all while trying to fix your feelings and free yourself from the voice in your head telling you you aren't good enough. It's exhausting! Climb out of the fog of the have-to or should-dos, and everyone else's needs. No more gripping, no more pushing, no more resisting.
It's time to love yourself boldly. To feel grounded and connected to your body and your emotions. Through counseling and nutrition, I help women to shift their relationship with themselves and food. To become allies as you are guided into alignment, so you can live from a place of ease, confidence, balance, and trust in yourself.
As a Mom to two little souls I know how it feels to know there’s another way but feel too busy and wrapped up in life to actually find it. Having someone on your side who understands how hard it is to let go of control when it’s all you’ve ever known, and who knows what it’s like to want to be excellent at everything you do, while managing a job, friendships, family relationships, exercise, birthdays, eating well and keeping your house-plants alive - means everything. If you have landed here you are taking steps to love yourself boldly and find what feels good. Yay!

Laura Farberman
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
Therapy is the journey of becoming free to be ourselves. Instead of becoming a better version of ourselves, we can connect to who we are at our core, without the coping mechanisms we unconsciously took on to survive. These ways of coping, often wired into our brain and nervous system, can show up differently for each person. For you, it might be perfectionism, procrastination, an inner critic, low self-esteem or anxiety, to name a few. My approach combines the best of practical psychology, science and grounded spiritual psychology. I make the roots of complex emotions, behaviours and addictions accessible and actionable so that you can achieve sustainable change and true transformation. I am trained in Compassionate Inquiry, a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that reveals the patterns beneath how we present to the world amongst other psychotherapeutic modalities.
Through Compassionate Inquiry you begin to recognize the unconscious patterns, which show up as triggers, traumas and ways of coping and suppressing emotions, and how to become free from them. I support clients to reconnect with their bodies, via somatic experience. Benefits include, relief of symptoms of chronic pain, anxiety, depression and addiction.
Soulful Therapy is a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to psychotherapy and an effective way to begin down the path of introspection. It is a place to process what’s going on in your present, make sense of your past, or explore factors that may guide choices to cultivate a life that feels self-compassionate, vibrant, and authentic above all else.

Maria Yaglovski
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC)
Life doesn’t always unfold the way we hope, and at times it can feel hard to ask for support. I understand the vulnerability that comes with reaching out, and I believe therapy can be a meaningful space to restore balance, safety, and self-trust.
I support individuals and couples with concerns including self-esteem, anxiety, mood challenges, intimacy, assertiveness, and relationship difficulties. My work is collaborative and compassionate, with a focus on helping you create real, lasting change and move toward a life that feels more fulfilling and authentic.
I’m committed to providing a safe, confidential space where you feel respected and supported. I offer a free 20-minute consultation to talk about your goals and see if working together feels like the right fit.

As a psychotherapist, my core mission is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can openly explore their emotions, thoughts, and life experiences. I believe in the inherent ability of every person to make meaningful changes in their life, and I see my role as a guide and support in this transformative process. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating major life transitions, I am here to help you work through these obstacles with empathy and understanding.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in deep empathy, active listening, and respect for each individual's unique path.

I place great value on establishing a trusting and collaborative relationship, where you feel empowered to address your concerns at a pace that feels right for you.
Having worked with a diverse range of clients, I recognize that each person’s healing journey is different. My aim is to offer a supportive space where you can gain clarity, develop fresh perspectives, and move forward with renewed confidence. I am dedicated to walking alongside you as you navigate your challenges, celebrate your progress, and ultimately discover your inner strength and resilience.
It is a privilege to be part of my clients' healing journeys, and I am deeply committed to providing a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and supported throughout the entire process.

Kerri Kimoto
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, Registered Psychotherapist
Human beings are capable of profound change. We often seek professional counselling supports when we are in the depths of pain or hurt. What we often don't know is that facing the scary part of ourselves brings relief and freedom. Even though it can feel impossible, I know that exploring our feelings and understanding ourselves is much easier then living in suffering. It is my honor to work with people through the difficult parts of themselves and their lives in order to help them get where they want to be.
