Bonny Kaman Li
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
I became a therapist because I know what it's like to need to rebuild — not just once, but repeatedly, across displacement, across countries, across versions of myself I had to leave behind to survive what came next. That experience shapes almost everything about how I practice today.
I don't believe therapy should feel like something done to you. I see it as a genuine collaboration — you bring your lived experience, I bring my clinical training, and we figure things out together. With your permission, I'll sometimes offer a different way of seeing something: this is what I notice — what do you think? If you see it differently, that's completely fine. We explore from there. Nothing gets handed down as fact.
A lot of the people I work with have already done real work elsewhere. They know their diagnoses, they've learned the coping skills, they can explain their patterns fluently — and it still hurts. That's usually exactly where we begin.
Before I became a therapist, I spent over a decade in the legal field and in ADHD coaching, which means I bring a slightly different lens to trauma, family conflict, and neurodivergence than clinicians who've only trained in one world. I also work with two therapy dogs, Emma and Evee, who often make the room feel safer than words alone can.
If you're the person everyone else relies on, and you're quietly wondering who's supposed to hold you — I'd like to help with that.

Samantha Mirarchi | Wild Sage Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Life as a woman in your 20s and 30s can feel EXHAUSTING, like no matter how hard you try, you're spinning your wheels and can't seem to catch a break. You're tired, anxious, overwhelmed, and questioning how you even got here.
Maybe a big change recently flipped your world upside down, like a breakup, move, job shift, or family situation that brought everything to the surface. Or maybe it's been building for a while. You’re feeling stuck, anxious, depressed, unfulfilled, and noticing the same patterns repeating themselves again and again.
You’re ready for something different. You're ready to dig deeper, understand yourself on a new level, and start creating patterns that actually move you forward. We’re here to help you do just that.
Visit our website or reach out to book a free consultation with one of our therapists! We’d love to support you.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Therapy, to me, is a space where you don’t have to have everything figured out or carry everything on your own. It is a place to pause, feel heard, understand what you’re experiencing, and gently make sense of what may have been difficult to express or process. My approach is trauma-informed and emotion-focused, recognizing that our emotions, relationships, past experiences, and cultural backgrounds all shape how we navigate life. I aim to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can feel understood, reconnect with yourself, and move toward greater self-awareness, emotional well-being, and meaningful change.
