Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
Have you been experiencing energy and mood issues and changes that are disruptive and draining? Do you go from feeling like you have a lot of energy to feeling like you have none at all, as if you are crashing? Does it sometimes feel like you are at the mercy of your emotions? Are your personal relationships suffering? It is overwhelming to deal with all that is going on inside of you, on top of all that is going on in your world. Bipolar disorder is one of the most commonly misunderstood mental health conditions. When we are on what feels like an emotional roller coaster, we may begin to feel helpless and ashamed and wonder what is wrong with us, leaving us feeling stuck and alone. These undigested feelings weigh us down and make it harder for us to live a meaningful life. If you would like to explore and learn more about this condition and more importantly, how you experience it, then take this step. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life. Therapy provides the opportunity for you to deal with bipolar on your terms, and while feeling safe and supported. My passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and irritable. You may be experiencing relational difficulties/ frustrations or feeling triggered by important others in your life. Do you cope by shutting down or avoiding? Are you ready to get to the bottom of things? If you are interested in self-exploration, coping better and managing your feelings, then I can help.
We prioritize rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings that are coming up for you today. You are not your difficulties and so it is just as important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, we would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact us today to schedule a complimentary consultation by phone where we can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life.

I believe this disorder isn't as scary as people think. After all, if Carrey Fisher (aka Princess Leia) could be as successful as she was with it; there's hope for everyone.

Cynthia Sewell, Embrace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CH CHyp
If you struggle with bipolar disorder, ongoing support is so important. As with any mental health issue medication is only one piece of the puzzle. A non-biased person can be instrumental in picking up on mood shifts and changes in behaviour that you may not notice. These could be warning signs or the beginnings of an episode.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Living with bipolar disorder can mean navigating emotional highs, lows, uncertainty, and an often complicated relationship with stability. Many people feel their experiences are viewed only through the lens of symptom management or “functioning,” rather than being understood more fully.
My approach is compassionate, realistic, and grounded in recognizing that bipolar disorder often comes with unique patterns, needs, strengths, and challenges. Together, we can build greater awareness of mood shifts, strengthen coping strategies, support relationships, and create ways of functioning that actually work for you — not just force you into expectations that have never really seemed to help.
