Find a therapist you
actually feel good about

Hello and welcome. My name is Hastee and I am currently pursuing my master’s in counselling psychology at Yorkville University. I achieved my bachelor’s in psychology and literature from York University. I am a South Asian immigrant to Canada and am well-versed in dealing with acculturation issues such as anxiety and depression. Moving to Canada as a pre-teen helped open my eyes to a wider world and shaped how I approach and view the world around me with acceptance and kindness. This also guides how I approach therapy and how I build our therapeutic relationship. I welcome clients with open arms who are dealing with issues such as adverse trauma and addiction. I am also experienced in providing perinatal and postpartum care for individuals. Moreover, I possess advanced training in treating couples. There are many modalities that we study in this field, and they all have their own strengths that are supported by detailed research. I foremost believe in taking an integrative, human-centred, and trauma-focused approach. Moreover, I believe every human has the capacity for incredible resilience and growth, and that comes from unconditional acceptance of oneself, as we are. When I am not working, you will find me spending some quality time with my boys (my husband and 2 dogs), exploring new nature trails (even in the winter, yes!), and always reading something. Ask me what I’m reading for suggestions or interest. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, so please reach out with questions. I look forward to supporting you on this journey.

Hello and welcome! ​I'm Marta, a Registered Psychotherapist (RP). Originally from Italy, I now call Toronto home. Having lived through the experience of building a life in a new country, I understand the complexities of cultural adjustment, identity, and belonging. I offer sessions in both English and Italian. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over a decade in Human Resources, where I witnessed how deeply our personal and professional lives intertwine. I hold a master’s degree in psychology and draw from both my clinical training and professional experience to support clients in finding balance, meaning, and self-understanding.

Life gets hard. So many responsibilities, it's hard to put ourselves first and we can stumble. We can feel isolated, overwhelmed, a sense of dread and anxiety with each passing day. This can lead to depressive feelings, loss of self confidence, addictions, self harm, and even suicidal thoughts. You're not alone if you're feeling this way. It can be especially hard to understand what is happening inside, if we had challenges in our past. I use an integrative person-centred approach so that together, we can work together to untangle the past, connect fully with yourself today, and build tools for the brighter future that you are hoping for. There may be many goals on your journey to well-being. In collaborating together, you will have a safe place to name your feelings for what they are: yours. I offer a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive lens to understanding, processing, and healing the roots of negative thoughts, feelings and experiences that may have been holding you back. Stepping into healing is an amazing act of courage. Working together, we can explore what is most meaningful for you today, as we navigate your journey towards mental health and well-being.

Do you ever feel like you don’t quite belong—like you’re putting on a mask just to make it through the day? Maybe life feels heavier than it should, or quietly exhausting. I work with people who are navigating anxiety, procrastination, imposter syndrome, and a lingering sense of disconnection. Together, we’ll gently explore what may be keeping you stuck and begin creating a life that feels more authentic and more your own. With a PhD in chemistry and a background outside of mental health, I understand the pressures of high performance, the weight of expectations, and the loneliness that can come with feeling different. I work relationally, offering a calm, curious space where you can begin to reconnect with yourself. I offer a free 30-minute consultation so you can get a sense of how I work and ask any questions. You don’t need to have it all figured out — just a willingness to take one step. If something in this profile resonates with you, I invite you to reach out and begin the conversation.
