About Me

If you landed on this page, you took the first step. As humans we have the capacity to adapt and discover more meaning & joy in life as we face and overcome obstacles in life. To me, happiness is the process of solving problems and developing more adaptive ways of being. I am excited to help you overcome challenges and achieve your wellness goals. Hi, my name is Ramona and welcome to my page! As a therapist, I take you seriously. Not just what you say, but what you’re bringing with you. My clients often tell me they feel genuinely understood, because I notice the weight you’re carrying, the patterns you’ve been sitting with, and the parts of your story that actually matter. I’m curious about who you are in the context of everything that shaped you: your culture, your relationships, your upbringing. I connect those threads with what’s happening with you now. I see individuals and couples across a wide range of experiences: mood disorders like depression and anxiety, identity work, ADHD, grief, and trauma. I’m equally comfortable supporting someone navigating a single difficult season or working through patterns that have persisted for years. I have particular experience with adolescents and young adults, as well as adults in midlife transitions. Whether you’re coming in with a specific crisis or just a sense that something needs to shift, I meet you where you are. Over my 10+ years as a therapist, I’ve developed an integrative approach. I draw on CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused therapy, Narrative therapy, and EFT for couples. For trauma, I use EMDR, inner child work, and attachment-based approaches. I trained in nervous system work and trauma-informed yoga in Indonesia. I understand how trauma lives in the body, not just the mind. More than the techniques, what ties them together is that I believe you already have the answers within you. My job is to create the conditions where those answers surface. Real trust and empathy. The safety to explore. The space to discover what change actually looks like for you. I’m a member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and specialize in relational therapy. I work from a multicultural, anti-oppressive perspective, which means I’m attuned to the systems and contexts that shape your experience. With me, you get access to therapy from the comfort of your space!

Hello and Welcome! My name is Wrenna! I genuinely enjoy getting to know people and believe that human connection can be a powerful foundation for healing and growth, one that is unique to each person. Starting therapy with someone new can be a daunting yet impactful journey. I work to create a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental space where you feel heard and supported. I pull from evidence-based approaches to deepen self-understanding and enhance navigation through life’s challenges. Therapy is a collaborative process designed for YOU, so our time together will be guided by your context, your needs, your direction, and at your own pace. If you feel we may be a good fit, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to meeting with you!

I work with LGBTQ2S+ adults who are tired of being "hooked" by their own minds—that loop of anxiety, the "not good enough" narrative, or that "stuck" feeling. Whether you’re navigating a life transition or just feeling "flat," I help you get your hands back on the steering wheel of your life.

Hi, I’m Diana, and I appreciate you taking the time to learn more about me! I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and an Honours Bachelor of Science from the University of Toronto Scarborough, where I double-majored in Mental Health and Linguistics. I have professional experience in crisis support, as well as in community and university mental health support and advocacy. As a first-generation African Canadian, I understand the complexities of navigating cultural identity, family expectations, and the stigma surrounding mental health. I also recognize how overwhelming and isolating experiences like trauma and anxiety can feel when you’re carrying them on your own. My goal is to offer you a safe, non-judgmental space where you can slow down, process what’s coming up for you, and begin to make sense of your inner experience, so you can finally exhale. My approach to therapy is rooted in building self-awareness. I believe that insight is a powerful tool. When we begin to understand the origins of our thoughts, emotions, and patterns, we gain the ability to challenge them, shift them, and move beyond the feeling of 'I don’t know why.' I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches, including Psychodynamic Therapy, Schema Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Somatic Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. I am committed to creating a compassionate, culturally sensitive, and collaborative environment where you feel heard, respected, and supported. Using a client-centred, trauma-informed, and strengths-based lens, I work alongside you to explore your identity, deepen self-awareness, and create meaningful, lasting change in your life!
