Ashleigh Bell
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
Receiving an Alzheimer’s diagnosis—or caring for someone who has—is deeply emotional and overwhelming. I offer supportive counselling for individuals and caregivers to process grief, navigate changing roles, and find ways of staying connected, resourced, and grounded while working alongside your medical team.

Kayla Rivera
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Supporting a loved one with Alzheimer’s can be emotionally and physically draining, and it can bring complicated grief and guilt. Therapy offers a place to process what you’re carrying, strengthen coping, and build sustainable boundaries in caregiving. You deserve support too, not just resilience.

Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Alzheimer’s and memory-related changes can affect not only the person experiencing symptoms, but also family members and caregivers. Therapy can provide support around grief, stress, role changes, communication challenges, and the emotional weight of caregiving. I offer a compassionate space to process these changes and strengthen coping, support, and emotional resilience.

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
A dementia diagnosis changes life for everyone it touches, and the grief, fear, and uncertainty that come with it are often carried in silence. Whether you're living with early-stage memory changes or caring for someone who is, you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to process what's happening, honour what's being lost, and find steadiness in what remains. My background in rehabilitation support means I understand both the practical and emotional weight of cognitive change. The goal isn't just to cope with each stage, it's to stay connected to yourself and the people you love, protect your own wellbeing, and find moments of meaning even in difficulty. Together we'll work toward feeling more grounded, more supported, and more equipped to navigate the road ahead.

Alzheimer's
Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s can be both deeply meaningful and incredibly challenging. The changes in memory, mood, and independence can bring feelings of grief, exhaustion, and isolation for both the individual and their caregivers. In therapy, I provide a compassionate space to process these emotions, learn coping strategies, and strengthen resilience. Together, we’ll work toward easing the stress of caregiving while finding ways to preserve connection, balance, and hope.

Whitby is a Durham Region community east of Toronto, notably home to Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences, one of Ontario's largest dedicated mental health hospitals, which reflects the significance of mental health as a local concern and provides specialized inpatient and outpatient psychiatric services that make the area an important hub for mental health care in the eastern Greater Toronto Area. The city has grown rapidly as a commuter community for Toronto, with GO Transit service making the journey manageable, and the pressures of long commutes and the costs of homeownership are among the stressors residents bring to therapy. A private therapy sector serves those seeking outpatient counselling, and the presence of Ontario Shores means that more intensive mental health needs can be addressed locally rather than requiring travel to Toronto. Common therapy concerns include commuter and work-life stress, family and parenting pressures, anxiety, and the transition challenges of a rapidly growing community.
