Mélanie Pelletier Schrauwers
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CTP Dipl
Therapy is not about fixing what’s “wrong” with you. It’s about understanding how you came to be the way you are, and making space for who you want to become or simply exploring who that may be.
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist, and I work online with adults across Ontario, in English or in French. My approach is rooted in psychodynamic principles which allows us to build a strong therapeutic alliance then discover what makes each of us unique. My purpose is to help clients become aware of conscious and unconscious parts of themselves. Understanding patterns and behaviour while walking away from their shame. I value "parts work", which sees the different sides of us, like the part that works hard to protect you, the part that’s exhausted, and the part that’s hurting, as having something important to say. Together, we listen to each of them with curiosity and compassion rather than judgment.
I bring a diverse, equity-informed lens to my work. Your background, identity, and lived experience matter, and I want you to feel seen and respected as the whole person you are.
I have a special interest in "Food Trauma" or the relation between the self and food. Past experience of abundance or scarcity, cultural eating habits and other situation which may affect how we nourish our bodies and how we exist in them.
In our sessions, you can expect a calm, steady space where you set the pace. If you’re wondering whether we’d be a good fit, I’d be glad to hear from you.

Ferozan Nasiri
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
As a therapist with over nine years of experience, my practice is deeply rooted in connection, compassion, and evidence-based care. I’ve supported individuals, families, and communities through life transitions, anxiety, addiction, and life’s toughest moments. Whether in schools, hospitals, or my therapy practice, I provide a warm, client-centred space where healing, growth, and resilience can thrive.
I’m passionate about creating a safe, supportive environment where you can explore your inner strengths and foster self-awareness to help make meaningful, lasting change. My approach is collaborative and empathetic, using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI).

Ashleigh Bell
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
I work with teens and adults who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, low mood, shame, people-pleasing, or addictive patterns and are tired of doing it alone. In a warm, non-judgmental space—online across Ontario and in-person in Pickering—I’ll help you slow down, understand what’s really going on underneath the symptoms, and build practical tools so you can feel more grounded, confident, and in control of your life.

Sherine Chacko
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Hi, I’m Sherine Chacko, a Registered Social Worker with over 16 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through emotional, relational, and life challenges.
I often work with clients who look like they are managing on the outside but feel overwhelmed internally. You may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, relationship stress, emotional reactivity, lack of motivation, or a sense of disconnection from yourself. You may be seeking coping strategies, but also wanting to understand yourself more deeply.
My goal is to create a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space where you can speak openly, feel understood, and begin making meaningful changes. I believe therapy works best when it is collaborative. I do not see my role as doing the work for you, but as walking alongside you as you develop insight, confidence, emotional clarity, and practical tools for your life.
I also believe that no person exists in isolation. Your relationships, culture, values, faith, family history, and life experiences all matter. In therapy, we will consider the full context of who you are — not just your symptoms.

Sanja Dejanovic
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, PhD
Hello! I'm Sanja. Feeling stressed, overwhelmed or stuck? Unsure how to change what you are experiencing, situations, or dynamics? Sometimes another viewpoint can help us navigate our path when we are unable to see a way through. I am a compassionate and nonjudgmental therapist who cares about witnessing others as they reconnect with themselves, explore their inner worlds and undergo changes they are aiming towards. If you are thinking of accessing therapy, connect with me to chat about your current experiences and how I could be there for you. I'm an experienced, skilled, and attuned therapist who has a variety of therapeutic approaches in her toolkit and integrates them in a way that works for you, whether you are seeking to navigate grief and loss, anxiety, depression, stressors, difficult emotions, familial and partnership challenges, addictions or other things weighing you down. I provide individual, couples and group therapy in Ontario and other provinces. Looking forward to connecting with you and collaboratively working with you toward your goals!

Kristen See
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
My therapeutic style is neuro-affirming, relational, and eclectic. You can expect friendly banter, a collaborative process, the option to actually get to know your therapist (I'm not here to be a stranger to you), and an approach that shifts with your needs and goals rather than a textbook treatment plan. In short, some sessions may be rooted in skill work, others may require more trauma-informed care. I offer therapy that meets you where you're at.
I also understand that neurodivergent clients are neurodivergent 100% of the time - my goal is to provide a service that accommodates and accepts the ADHD / AuDHD experience.
Fun facts about me: I'm a millennial in my 30's, diagnosed with ADHD later in life, lover of cats, nature, and reality tv.
