Find a therapist you
actually feel good about

Hi, I’m Natasha May, Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP I have five years of experience providing counselling support to individuals across a wide range of concerns, age groups, family situations, and cultural backgrounds, including dedicated support for LGBTQIA+ individuals. I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, as well as an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in Family and Child Studies from the University of Guelph. I believe that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to walk with you as a supportive partner in your journey toward becoming your best version. My approach to counselling is integrative and client-centered, drawing from evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, and other therapeutic frameworks, all delivered through a trauma-informed lens. I recognize that individuals enter counselling with varying levels of readiness, and I strive to meet you where you are, supporting you at every step of the process. It would be an honour to walk alongside you as you explore your next steps and move toward the life and self you wish to become.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master’s in Counselling Psychology, specializing in nervous system regulation and the mind-body connection. My work focuses on understanding how chronic stress, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, trauma, and chronic pain can impact both psychological and physiological wellbeing. My therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based modalities including CBT, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, and person-centered therapy to support emotional awareness, resilience, and lasting personal growth. I am passionate about psychoeducation and helping individuals better understand the relationship between their thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and nervous system responses. I strive to create a grounded, compassionate, and collaborative therapeutic environment where healing, self-understanding, and meaningful change can take place.

As a therapist, I encourage clients to live in accordance with their values and promote authenticity. I believe that many of the challenges you face in life represent a disconnect between what you see as right, or what is really important to you, and the way that you live those beliefs out. In daily life, this disconnect may be experienced as social anxiety, as you fear what others think of you. At school or in the workplace, this can look like dissatisfaction with your job or studies. In relationships, this can look like resentment or insecurity towards your partner. I’m offering affordable in-person and virtual sessions for individuals and couples. I draw from CBT, narrative therapy, and solution-focused brief therapy to identify thought patterns holding you back, to restructure how you see your past in a fairer light, and to begin addressing any trauma that has shaped the harmful thoughts you may be experiencing. In couples’ therapy, I draw from many of the same approaches, as well as the Gottman method, to equip you with exercises and coping strategies aimed at improving your relationship.

Have you ever felt caught between who you are and who others expect you to be? Perhaps you are carrying the weight of discrimination, cultural pressures, or the lingering feeling of never fully belonging. As a second-generation Canadian raised by immigrant parents and someone who holds multiple marginalized identities, I understand how difficult it can be to navigate the space between different worlds. I offer a warm, affirming, and culturally sensitive environment where individuals aged 14 and up can slow down, feel understood, and reconnect with themselves. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and MA in Counselling Psychology student working under clinical supervision, I take a client-centred and collaborative approach rooted in psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness-based practices to foster insight, explore patterns, and support meaningful change. Much like a flower that blooms when given the right conditions, I see therapy as a space where growth unfolds when safety and understanding are present. Together, we can cultivate deeper self-awareness and draw on the resilience that already lives within you. If this resonates, I invite you to reach out for a free 20-minute consultation.
