Registered Psychotherapist, B.A., M.A., Registered Psychotherapist
*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENT'S* I am so glad you are here and putting forth your needs first or maybe you are here because your friend or family member needs support or you are just tired of feeling this ‘Numb’ feeling and you want some answers as to “Why are you feeling this way? or asking yourself “Why don’t I feel happy or sad anymore?”, “Why am I like this?”, What is wrong with me? If I have made you question yourself right now then you are in the right place with the right person. As your therapist, I will help you explore all these feelings.
Narrative
Ashley Ferraccioli
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying)/Intern Therapist
Life can be unpredictable and can present challenging experiences that are hard to navigate on our own. During these times, we can feel overwhelmed, especially if we experience high levels of stress or anxiety, struggle in managing emotions, or have experienced traumatic events in our life. Sometimes, we get so caught up in our negative thoughts that it can be hard to overtake them, and it may even feel impossible to stop them. They may even start interfering with your everyday life and you may lose sight of who you are.
I am passionate about helping people overcome challenges in their life, no matter what stage. I aim to support you by creating a calm and safe space where you can freely express yourself. Working collaboratively, I am committed to helping you explore and work through the challenges in your life.
I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we are a good fit. Please feel free to reach out – I am here to help! I look forward to beginning this journey with you.

Therapy is a space where you can put yourself first, dedicating time and attention to your needs in a demanding and chaotic world. Here, you can find solace in a safe and welcoming environment, where we focus entirely on you and your unique journey.
As a therapist, I am devoted to offering you kindness, compassion, and empathy as we navigate this transformative journey together. Drawing from the modalities of mindfulness, somatic, and narrative therapies, I believe in a holistic approach to healing. Whether you're seeking to understand and process the past or looking for guidance in figuring out the next steps in your life, I am here to support you at your own pace, without any restrictions or judgments. I want you to feel seen, heard, and deeply understood in our therapeutic journey. Together, we'll explore your emotions and thoughts, create space for self-compassion, and unearth the wisdom and resilience that reside within you. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy and collaboration. We'll work as a team, acknowledging your unique experiences and strengths as we seek to foster growth and empowerment.
Finding the right fit in therapy is essential, and I offer free consultations to ensure our partnership feels comfortable and aligned. Your journey to healing and transformation begins with that initial step, and I am here, ready to support you in every step.

Maya Oakes
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I recognize that starting therapy is not always the easiest choice; I'd like to acknowledge the courageous step you are taking to begin your journey. In our space together I will honour this strength and meet you where you’re at. My approach to therapy is to understand that you are the expert of your own life and you deserve an individualized treatment plan based on your unique needs, experiences, strengths and goals. There is no-one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, and as such, we will work together to understand what is needed in our space together to best support you. Together, we will work to establish goals, build resiliency and self-compassion, and identify effective coping skills and self-care tools.
I offer support to adolescents (13+) and adults experiencing issues related to anxiety, stress, depression, relationship concerns, trauma, grief, life transitions and self-esteem.
I would be honoured to be part of your therapy journey and I look forward to creating a safe space with you where you are offered the compassion and validation needed for processing, healing and growth.
