Hi, I’m Carly

I work as a registered psychotherapist in Ontario. I received my Masters in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, and hold a Bachelors of Arts in Sexuality, Marriage and Family from the University of Waterloo. Through these programs, I have had the pleasure of working with diverse populations and found my passion for supporting clients.

Seeking support when things feel challenging is a difficult step. In my role as a psychotherapist, I look to provide a comfortable, safe and judgment free environment to support clients in their therapeutic journey. Through my many years of service, I have had the privilege of journeying with clients through some of their most challenging of circumstances. Supporting clients in reaching their goals, and forging their own way forward is an important part of my practice. I take a client centered approach to my work, where clients take the lead in discussing relevant and important topics to them.

Supporting clients in reaching their goals, and forging their own way forward is an important part of my practice.

My name is Victoria and I am a registered psychotherapist in Ontario. I received my Masters in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, and hold a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from Wilfrid Laurier University.

Talking about our experiences and feelings can be difficult. I will create a safe space where you feel comfortable expressing your true self without judgement. Together we will build on your strengths and help you apply these to foster a newfound confidence.  I enjoy utilizing a client centered approach and want to ensure we explore what you may need that day while also achieving your goals.

When working with clients, our time together will be individualized to your wants and needs. I pull from a variety of modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused-CBT, Narrative therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and Solution Focused Therapy.

I enjoy supporting youth, adults and couples through their therapeutic journey. I believe it’s never too late to build your toolbox to cope with life’s everyday struggles. Genuine connections with my clients are important and I continue to make this part of our time together.

My name is Max (they/them) and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Ontario. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Marine and Freshwater Biology with a minor in Neuroscience from the University of Guelph and a Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University.

With my background in both biology and psychology, I can help you develop a deeper understanding of why you’re feeling the way you do. I strive to create a collaborative space where you can be your whole self without judgment. I understand how it feels to be stuck, to lack purpose, and to be overwhelmed by big emotions without knowing how to cope with them. Together, we can begin to make sense of your thoughts, feelings and actions so you can move forward towards your best life.

My approach integrates elements of science and spirituality, and I draw from modalities such as internal family systems, narrative therapy and attachment theory in order to tailor the experience to meet your needs. I work primarily with those 18-30 years old, and my main areas of focus include: anxiety, ADHD, adulting, sex, intimacy and relationships, gender and sexuality, and developing a deeper understanding of the self.

I look forward to working with you!

Hi, I’m Elizabeth (she/her).

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Ontario and am currently completing my master’s degree in counselling psychology (MACP) at Yorkville University. Prior to my pursuit of psychotherapy, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience from Brock University and following this, I had the honour of serving my community as a paramedic for 18 years.

I have learned through my life and career experiences the value of compassionate and non-judgemental support in navigating life’s struggles. We all need a helping hand sometimes, and I offer a safe space where we can work together, identify your strengths and skills, and discover your best path to healing, personal growth, and empowerment. We also sometimes just need someone who is simply willing to listen with an empathetic ear. Regardless of your struggle, I will listen to you, guide you, and walk alongside you on your journey.

I take a holistic view of mental wellbeing and follow a person-centered, strengths-based, integrated approach. I believe that every person’s struggles are unique, so I draw from several models including cognitive behavioural therapy, psychodynamic theory, solution focused therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions to ensure that our approach is the most comfortable and effective fit for you.
