Antony Alexander
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
You may be coming to therapy feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer make sense to you. Perhaps you’ve tried to manage things on your own, or even sought help before, but something still feels unresolved. If you’re looking for a space to slow down, reflect, and understand yourself more deeply, this may be a good place to begin.
I approach therapy as a collaborative and relational process. Rather than offering quick solutions, I work with you to explore emotional patterns, inner experiences, and relational dynamics that shape how you relate to yourself and others. My role is to help you make sense of what feels confusing, painful, or repetitive, while supporting you in finding clarity and meaning at your own pace.
My work is grounded in Person-Centered, Psychodynamic, Psychoanalytic, and Trauma-Informed approaches. This means I pay close attention to your lived experience, the therapeutic relationship, and the underlying influences that may be affecting your present concerns. Therapy with me is thoughtful, respectful, and attuned to both your emotional safety and your capacity for change.
If you are unsure where to start, we can begin there together. My aim is to offer a steady, reflective space where you feel heard, understood, and supported as you move toward greater self-awareness and lasting change.

Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
My journey into this field is deeply personal. Having lived with anxiety, navigated grief, and taken on caregiving responsibilities early in life, I became committed to understanding mental health not only intellectually but in ways that could support genuine coping and healing.
I understand what it can feel like to be stuck, lost, or caught in what seems like an endless loop of discouragement and emotional fatigue. These experiences have shaped the empathy and perspective I bring to my work.
Through my work with individuals from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds, I have come to believe that human resilience is universal. Even in the most difficult circumstances, people find ways to endure and move forward. As a therapist, my goal is to support you in rediscovering your inner strength—helping you find clarity, reconnect with yourself, and rebuild a sense of hope and trust in your path forward.

Manisha Grewal
Counsellor/Therapist, BA (Hons), MA, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you tend to replay past events in your mind over and over, and spiral into worries about the future? Do you struggle with boundaries, people-pleasing, or relationships, causing you to "overgive" to others while abandoning your own needs? Many people describe feeling like they’re moving through life on autopilot — weighed down by overthinking, low mood, or the pressure to keep everyone else happy. You might notice people-pleasing tendencies, difficulty maintaining boundaries, or a pattern of overgiving that leaves you drained, ungrounded, and disconnected from yourself. Here, you’ll find a warm, calm space where your feelings are validated and your voice genuinely matters. Together, we’ll engage in meaningful, deep processing work, explore what's fuelling your distress, and gently uncover the deeper experiences and patterns shaping your emotional world. Alongside this, we’ll build practical tools to regulate your nervous system and ease your symptoms in the present, helping you reconnect with a more empowered, resilient, and self-aware version of yourself. I bring the richness of three cultures, four languages, and the lived experience of being both a first- and third-generation immigrant. My background in the medical field also allows me to integrate physiological and psychological insight. These parts of who I am allow me to deeply empathize with the immigrant journey across generations, as well as the ways culture, family expectations, and identity can shape mental health. No matter your background or story, I aim to meet you with genuine understanding, respect, and compassion. I am a proud ally to LGBTQIA2S+ and BIPOC communities and offer inclusive, compassionate care for all backgrounds and lived experiences. If what I’ve shared resonates, we may be a good fit. If you're curious about working together, let's start with a free, no-pressure 30-min video consultation, where we can connect and chat in a calm, relaxed space.
