Individual Therapy · Ontario
We offer multiple evidence-based therapies adapted to your specific case and concerns after our thorough intake process. Virtual and in-person across Ontario.
Our Approach
Most people who come to us either feel hopeless about therapy or have already tried therapy. What brings them here is the sense that previous treatment addressed the surface without reaching what was actually driving it.
Every intake is thorough. Before recommending a therapy or clinician, we take the time to understand your full history, what has maintained your difficulties, and what has or has not worked before. Treatment is built around that picture.
Even when trauma is not the primary concern, a trauma-informed lens changes how we pace treatment, build the therapeutic relationship, and apply evidence-based techniques. It is woven into how we work, not a separate module.
We draw from therapies with the strongest research base, and we adapt them to fit your situation. Treatment is not selected by diagnosis alone. It is selected by what is actually driving your difficulties and what you need to move forward.
We provide inclusive, culturally-sensitive, and 2SLGBTQI+-affirming care across all presentations. Your identity, background, and lived experience are part of how we understand your history and tailor treatment.
Our Programs
If you are unsure which approach fits your situation, the intake process will work that out with you. We also frequently integrate components of different therapies to tailor treatment to your specific case, rather than applying a single protocol.
Evidence-based therapies with the strongest research base for processing traumatic memories and reducing PTSD symptoms, including for complex presentations with significant emotion dysregulation.

Getting Started
You do not need to know which therapy is right before reaching out. That is what the intake process is for.
A brief call with our intake coordinator to hear what you are looking for, answer your questions, and identify the right therapist match for your needs. If none of our clinicians are the right fit, we will point you toward referrals. No commitment, no pressure.
A comprehensive intake with your therapist covering your history, current difficulties, previous treatment, and goals. This is where we build the picture that guides everything else.
Your therapist shares a clear formulation of what they found and recommends the approach or combination of approaches best suited to your situation. You decide together how to proceed.
Concerns We Treat
Each concern is approached through a trauma-informed lens with evidence-based therapies adapted to your full history. Click any concern to learn more about how we treat it.
Is This Right for You
Many people come to us after therapy that helped to a point but did not reach the underlying cause. Standard CBT or counselling can be highly effective, but when trauma, emotional dysregulation, or complex histories are part of the picture, a more targeted approach is often needed.
A trauma-informed approach does not mean every session is about the past. It means the past is accounted for in how treatment is paced, how the therapeutic relationship is built, and how evidence-based techniques are applied. For many clients, this changes what becomes possible in therapy.
