Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
I believe that healing is a creative and embodied process. As an expressive arts and somatic therapist, I am guided by the understanding that our bodies, emotions, and imaginations hold profound wisdom. In my work, I invite movement, image, sound, and story to help people discover new pathways to resilience, connection, and self-understanding.
My approach is gentle, collaborative, and rooted in curiosity. I support clients in tuning into the signals of their bodies, exploring their inner landscapes, and expressing what may be difficult to put into words. I see therapy as a space where what has been held can be released, where identity can be reclaimed, and where the nervous system can finally exhale.
Whether someone is navigating trauma, stress, transition, or a longing for deeper authenticity, I strive to create a space where their whole being is welcomed. My intention is always to help others reconnect with their innate aliveness, creativity, and capacity for healing.

Taran Ranu
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist - RP, B.S, M.A.C.P, C.R.P.O.
Life’s challenges often bring a mix of emotions, from uncertainty and frustration to a strong desire for change and understanding. Through virtual therapy, I provide a compassionate and accessible space to explore these difficulties. As a Registered Psychotherapist, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to manage emotions effectively, and Emotion-Focused Therapy to explore deeper emotional experiences. For those seeking solutions and clarity, I draw on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify actionable steps, while Person-Centered Therapy ensures that each session prioritizes your unique experiences and needs. For couples, I use the Gottman Method to strengthen communication and rebuild trust. Together, these approaches help individuals and couples overcome challenges like trauma, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and relationship dynamics, creating opportunities for meaningful and lasting growth. My approach is designed to foster understanding and promote healthier, more fulfilling relationships through expert, empathetic guidance. Call for a free consultation

Yasmin Rombola-Bacchus
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist, Dipl. Psych.
I see therapy as a sacred space that offers clients the opportunity to pause from the constant distractions life presents to engage and reflect on our inner and outer worlds. While this process may at times feel challenging or even painful, it can also lead to peaceful and celebratory reflections. I am committed to ensuring that clients feel seen, heard, and respected, and that our conversations lead to unique transformations achieved through empowerment.

David Rockman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW RSW BA psych hon
In uncertain times, it is common to feel overwhelmed by difficulties and feel stuck in a cycle of challenges in the 6 general arenas of human experience: habituated repertoire of thoughts, emotions, soma, behaviours, situations, and environment. Many of the problems we experience are not our fault, but they can still have a significant impact on our mental health and well-being. As a psychotherapist with 27 years of experience in Toronto, I have helped countless individuals effectively and quickly resolve a variety of issues, including self-other relationship stressors, trauma from sexual abuse, emotional regulation, feelings of betrayal and abandonment, social anxiety, self-blame, self-esteem issues, motivation problems, and mis-transits of anger, shame and grief.
