Resilient Roots Therapy - Social Work and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MA, RP
At Resilient Roots Therapy, we are person-centred and trauma-informed, meaning our work will be grounded in respect, empathy, and your own unique strengths. We integrate a variety of effective modalities, including narrative therapy, somatic work, Mind-Body Attunement, neuro-linguistic approaches, and internal family systems. These forms of therapy are highly effective in normalizing the mind-body connection and supporting the healing of emotional wounds, including intergenerational trauma.
I have been in the mental health field for 11 years. Throughout my career, I’ve been on my own journey of identity learning, understanding that identity is something we come into rather than something we find. As a queer Black woman, I am keenly aware of the unique challenges faced by people of colour, queer, trans, and non-binary folx. My intent is to not only create a safe space for all my clients but also a brave space where genuine transformation can occur.

Sara Ahmadzadeh
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Sometimes, the hardest part isn't knowing that something needs to change; it's finding your way back to yourself when life has left you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unlike the person you used to be. Online therapy offers a space to untangle what's weighing on you, make sense of your experiences, and begin moving toward a life that feels more like your own. You don't have to have the right words, a clear plan, or everything figured out to begin. Just start where you are, and we'll take it from there.

Michelle Directo
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP, ExA
Hello, my name is Michelle.
I am a registered psychotherapist who draws from a variety of different approaches. I appreciate the steps that you are taking towards change and growth. I am a mother of four, and in my free time I love to read, hike, dance, and travel. I personally understand what it is like to come from a place of needing and asking for help. This awareness helps me to empathize and create a place for you to share your unique experiences. I would love the opportunity to provide a safe space for you to do so. It would to be an honour for me to help you re-write new chapters in your story. I provide a 15 minute free consultation in which you can determine if I am the right fit for you.

Mary Mikhail
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, BSW, MACP, RSW
Sometimes the ways we learned to cope helped us through difficult moments, but later can leave us feeling stuck. If you’re carrying painful experiences, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, or finding that addiction has become difficult to manage, therapy can be a place to make sense of what’s happening without judgment.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. We can explore how past experiences may connect with present challenges while building skills that support you in everyday life. You don’t need to know exactly where to start—we can begin with what feels most important to you.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (qualifying)
I believe that each person has strength and resilience within them. Sometimes we only need a helping hand to get there. I have helped many individuals discover this strength, find healing, and move towards the life they want to live. As a person-centred therapist, I believe in empowering individuals to discover more about who they are in a collaborative approach to therapy. I work hard to build trust and create a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to come as they are, and together, take steps towards health and recovery.
I provide a nurturing, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore challenges, strengths, and emotions freely. Through a collaborative, person-centered and strength based approach, we work together towards lasting wellness and positive change, gaining valuable insights along the way.
If you are interested in working together and want to learn more about my approach to therapy, I would be happy to talk with you. Feel free to call or email me to book a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we would be a good fit. I look forward to meeting you and working together soon.
