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 work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, grief, trauma-related experiences, identity exploration, relationship challenges, and various life and role transitions. I have experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, including members of BIPOC communities, and approach my work through a culturally responsive and anti-oppressive lens.
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.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) dedicated to creating a safe, affirming, and non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, valued, and supported. I believe meaningful healing begins through authentic connection; therefore, my approach is grounded in empathy, trust, collaboration, and respect.
I currently pursue a Master of Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University and hold an Honours Bachelor of Health Sciences from University of Ottawa. In addition, my professional background in special education and community engagement has allowed me to support youth with diverse abilities while advocating for inclusion, accessibility, and systemic change.

Svetlana Levinta
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MEd
I am a Registered Psychotherapist serving individuals, couples, and families in Ontario. Since starting my practice here in Ontario, I have been given the privilege of helping clients overcome their relationship struggles and move forward with their lives. I work collaboratively to set goals with clients, helping them resolve personal problems, conflict in the family, and more. My services are available in two languages: English and Russian. Apart from locals, I also serve immigrants from Eastern and Central Europe, Russia, and other countries. I can offer a more personalized service since I know the culture, social processes, values, and traditions.

Jane Allen
Psychologist, Master Counselling, BSc. Eng, MBA
Many of my clients feel lost or stuck in their lives. They often feel troubled by their relationships, work situations, unmet dreams, and transitions into different stages of life. Our culture does not offer many forums for authentic exploration of life's challenges. My work supports you in exploring the underlying causes of such feelings as anxiety, depression, fear, emptiness, despair, resentment, anger.
I offer a very non-judgmental environment where we can examine different life patterns and core beliefs which may be negatively affecting your quality of life. If you feel isolated in your challenges, I can offer perspectives and insights that will help you understand yourself more and discover that you are not alone.
My goal is to provide hope, insight and new perspectives to my clients. I am an avid reader, researcher and learner and work to find a good match with each client and a suitable counselling approach. Working as a psychologist is a second career for me. I have extensive life experience and work experience in science, business and work teams.
