of Salt & Sky Therapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
At of Salt & Sky, we’ve created a practice for the messy, complicated parts of being human. The things that happened years ago but still show up today. Relationships that leave you questioning yourself. A body or illness that has changed the life you thought you’d have. The exhaustion of holding everything together, or the feeling that somewhere along the way, you lost a little of yourself.
Our therapists don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. We bring different personalities, experiences, and approaches to the work, but share the same goal: to understand the person in front of us, not simply the problem that brought them through the door. Therapy here can be thoughtful and challenging, practical when you need it to be, and human enough that there’s room to laugh, too.

Emmy Montemurro-Baxter
Registered Psychotherapist, MScEd, RP, RMFT
The combination of my past work experience in human services, my 25+ years in private practice, and my life experience, I have learned that every person is unique and faces unique challenges. I have developed a multi modal approach to therapy as I find drawing on techniques from several approaches allows me tailor my sessions to meet the needs of each client, depending on their situation, their values and their needs.
Life is full of challenges and at times such challenges may leave one feeling overwhelmed or stuck and unsure how to move forward. Whether what one is facing is a minor or a major concern, engaging in therapy can be helpful in many ways. Through talk therapy my aim is to gain and understanding of the uniques ness of each individual and to assist them to
manage the stresses they face
recognize there own strengths
bring clarity to their thoughts, emotions and feeling
define their goals
identify and assess possible courses of action
and
move forward with intention

James "Jamie" Myslik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Hi! I've been a practicing counsellor for eighteen years working with folks from all walks of life with all the challenges that life throws at them, such as work stress, life transitions, relationship stress, bereavement and loss, ageing, histories of trauma, concerns around sex and sexuality, and much more. Oftentimes those issues show up through anxiety, depression, shame, anger, social anxiety, or just feeling overwhelmed. I like to help folks connect to their emotions, deal with their stresses, and generally build the life they're looking for. In feedback from my clients I'm told I'm compassionate, non-judgemental, easy to open up to, and offer a good balance of working with the head and the heart. I also bring a lot of humour to sessions.
While I'm a generalist practitioner, I often work with 2SLGBTQIA+ folks (and am queer myself), men, and people looking to explore their emotional selves.
I currently offer individual therapy for adults online, and can offer walk-and-talk and nature therapy if our locations allow.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Helping women find their footing through life’s biggest changes: perimenopause, postpartum, fertility, cancer and caregiving, burnout, and the pressures of family and culture. What makes my practice different is depth you won’t find in a textbook. I spent three years supporting people living with cancer and their caregivers, a decade working with communities across India, Africa and Europe, and I’ve rebuilt my own life in a new country as a mother without my village. I weave ancient wisdom with modern neuroscience, blending evidence-based therapy with yoga, breath and mindfulness, so you leave each session feeling calmer and carrying something you can use. Every session moves at your pace, in English or Hindi. If you’ve been holding everything together and quietly losing yourself, let’s talk. Book a free 15-minute consultation, in Toronto or online across Ontario.
