Book In-Person With Brooklyn I know that starting therapy can feel intimidating, and reaching out is often a big, courageous step. You might be noticing that parts of your life no longer feel quite right, or that things just aren’t working the way you want them to. My intention is to offer space where there is room to slow down, reflect, and begin making sense of what you’re carrying. I aim to hold space in a way that feels supportive and safe, while gently exploring and addressing the concerns that brought you to therapy.

My approach is insight-oriented, relational, and reflective. I believe that lasting change comes from understanding yourself, including your thoughts, emotions, patterns, and values, and noticing how they show up in your life. Together we’ll focus on strengthening your connection to who you are and what matters most to you, while exploring ways to respond differently when old habits or patterns arise.

The relationship we build in therapy is central to this work, and I strive to make it warm, attentive, and nonjudgmental. I gently challenge when it feels helpful, while also bringing humour and lightness into the room, because I believe that depth and softness can and should coexist in the healing process.

I work with people navigating grief, relationship and attachment challenges, identity questions, life transitions and more. Whatever brings you to therapy, the awareness and insights we develop together naturally extend into everyday life, giving you the chance to notice patterns, reflect, and respond in ways that feel more intentional and aligned with who you want to be.

At the heart of my work is supporting you in developing a deeper understanding of yourself, so you can move forward in ways that feel grounded, authentic, and true to who you want to be. I’m here to listen, support and walk alongside you whenever you’re ready.

Reaching out for support takes courage and vulnerability. I hope this short bio gives you a sense of who I am and whether we might be a good fit—because I believe healing begins with a strong, trusting therapeutic connection.

We all experience ups, downs, and everything in between. In our work together, all parts of your story—your pain, emotions, aspirations, and wonderings—are welcomed and held without judgment. Whatever you’re navigating or hoping to better understand, I’ll meet you with warmth, compassion, and curiosity. It’s okay if you’re unsure of what you need or what therapy is “supposed” to be like (it looks different for everyone!). We’ll explore what works best for you, working in alignment with your goals, needs, and preferences.

My approach is both gentle and direct. I strive to create space for reflection while also empowering you to notice patterns and move toward meaningful change. I take an integrative and holistic approach, primarily drawing from Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Internal Family Systems to help you explore your story, understand how past relationships and experiences shape your present, and build self-compassion by connecting with the different parts of yourself. Together, we’ll unpack what you’ve been carrying and reconnect with your most authentic self.

I hold a Master’s in Psychotherapy from Wilfrid Laurier University and a BASc in Child, Youth and Family (with a minor in Psychology) from the University of Guelph. While I believe education is important, I also value the insights we gain from lived experiences, as they shape who we are and how we move through the world.

Outside of the therapy room, you can find me recharging by reading, soaking up the sun, staying active, discovering new cafes, and connecting with loved ones.

If any part of this resonates with you, I’d love to connect and support you on your path toward healing, growth, and self-discovery.

Hello, and welcome! Thank you for the honour of walking alongside you as you navigate your path of healing and self-discovery. I have a continual growth mindset balanced with a heart for inner peace, contentment, and compassion. I work with my clients to create a space for deep processing and emotional awareness, leading to an innate sense of agency and realizing tangible goals and growth.

You will have the opportunity to look at the many facets of human experience that have shaped you, as well as your perspectives, self-talk, and emotional landscape. Through our work together, a deeper understanding of how these elements have influenced your choices, relationships, and self-concept will allow for clarity and healing in the moment, as well as action and direction for the future. These insights can be invaluable in times of crisis, transition, and/or stagnation and can also be used to foster positive changes and patterns regardless of your current life situation.

I value diversity of personalities, experiences, and backgrounds. As a musician, I also value the creative arts and nonverbal communication. Whether your primary objective is verbal processing, emotional processing, self-expression, or goal setting, I would like to welcome you into a space of discovering more about who you are and what you are capable of.

Together, we’ll look at patterns—some of which may lie just beneath the surface—that could be shaping how you relate to others, view yourself, and handle life’s demands. Gaining clarity around these patterns can lead to deeper self-understanding, emotional healing, and lasting change.

Building a trusting therapeutic relationship is central to my approach. From that foundation, we’ll explore your experiences with curiosity and compassion. You don’t have to face your struggles alone. If you’re ready to begin your therapeutic journey, I’m here to listen, support, and explore what truly matters to you.

Do you feel a sense of emptiness and uncertainty? Do you feel alone, stuck, struggling with lack of purpose and fulfillment? Are you facing realities you cannot change? Do stress and anxiety complicate your well-being? Do you long for the taste of meaning and joy? Together we can explore all of these feelings and questions. Together we can look into your past, present, and future. Together we can uncover and nurture your resilience and inner strength. Together we can search for how your challenges can become the source of your transformations. I specialize in helping clients who are experiencing identity crisis, existential angst, trauma, divorce, resentment, anxiety, stress, despair, and all sources of discomfort. Each of us is indispensable and irreplaceable but we sometimes lose sight of this. Each of us has a human spirit with a wealth of resources from which we can draw. I practice psychodynamic psychotherapy informed by attachment theories, Jungian ideas, spirituality, and Viktor Frankl’s approach of “healing through meaning”. I too have been to the psychological underworld and battled the dragons of chaos. A path forward does exist. You can experience your life as an adventure. If you want to begin a journey towards self discovery, contact me today to schedule a consultation.

As a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist my goal is to help you gain insight to how your emotions influence your thought process. By helping you identify issues that are causing you conflict we then can work on formulating solutions. With this understanding we then can focus on changing maladaptive behaviours to more positive ones. The goal of CBT is to teach you strategies so that you can move forward in your life. CBT is effective with adults and children. We all have the ability to change things in our lives, we just need to take the first steps.

I am Registered with the College of Psychotherapists. I have a Master’s Degree in Psychology, Certified in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and am a Clinical Traumatologist.

I believe healing begins in relationship, when you feel seen, heard, understood, and accepted exactly as you are. I am a trauma-informed therapist who offers a warm, supportive, and inclusive space for healing. I work with individuals facing a variety of challenges, including trauma and PTSD, self-harming behaviours, grief and loss, anxiety, sleep concerns, and difficulties with anger and emotional regulation.

I am committed to supporting neurodivergent individuals and LGBTQ2S+ clients in a way that honours identity, difference, and lived experience, and fosters a sense of safety, belonging, and respect.

My approach is eclectic and holistic, recognizing that healing involves the mind, body, nervous system, and relationships. I draw from EMDR, DBT, CBT, and ACT, while remaining grounded in person-centred and strengths-based care. Therapy is collaborative and thoughtfully paced, tailored to your unique needs and lived experience.

I understand that many coping strategies—such as self-harm, anger, or withdrawal—developed as ways to survive overwhelming experiences. In our work together, we focus on safety, compassion, and building new skills without judgment.

Above all, my goal is to offer a space where you can slow down, feel supported, and reconnect with your strengths. You don’t have to navigate this alone. Together, we can do hard things.

Seeking support takes courage, and you’re already taking an important step by exploring therapy. If you’re finding that life feels overwhelming, unbalanced, or no longer aligned with who you want to be, I’m here to support you in creating meaningful change. In our work together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way, and gently move toward a life that feels more grounded and fulfilling.

My approach is collaborative, person-centered, and deeply rooted in compassion. You’ll find that I work from an attachment-focused, nonjudgmental, and emotionally attuned perspective. Because our emotions often show up in both the mind and body, I integrate approaches that help deepen emotional awareness, build clarity, and support meaningful action toward your goals. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based practices, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs and experiences. Although I am in the early stages of my clinical career, I bring a strong foundation shaped by published research on memory and cognition, hands-on experience supporting neurodivergent populations, and a professional background in HR. These experiences inform how I connect with clients, understand their challenges, and approach therapy with curiosity, empathy, and care. I am committed to ongoing growth through supervision, training, and reflective practice. Having also been in the client’s seat, I understand the courage it takes to show up for yourself and the dedication required to navigate the therapy process.

I have experience supporting teens, adults, and parents navigating a wide range of concerns, and the desire to build deeper emotional understanding. No matter where you’re starting, you deserve support, clarity, and a space where you feel seen.

Life can be overwhelming, and it doesn’t always slow down when you need it to. When you’re carrying a lot, your own healing can easily fall to the bottom of the list. You deserve moments of calm, clarity, and connection for your inner self. I’m here to walk alongside you - offering support, encouragement, and a space to grow at your own pace.

In our sessions, I create a safe, grounding, and nonjudgmental space where all parts of you are welcome. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and emotionally attuned.

I believe in working on the premise that people can self-regulate when they increase their awareness of their experiences. I recognize that a person needs to give meaning to their experiences and their existence. My promise is to stay with your present experience and trust in your process. I will accompany you in moving toward increased awareness, contact and integration. By becoming aware, you would be more equipped to make informed choices and live a more meaningful life.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with experience working with adults who have experienced trauma in their lives. My primary practice is Gestalt Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. I also integrate Narrative Therapy and mindfulness-based practices into my work.

According to Gestalt practice, “we change when we become aware of what we are, instead of trying to become what we are not.”

EMDR therapy enables people to heal from symptoms and emotional distress resulting from overwhelming life experiences. It is an effective treatment for trauma, psychological stress and post-traumatic stress disorder.

I am a caring, compassionate and non-judgmental counsellor who provides a safe space for you. My focus is to create the conditions that support your growth. I will accompany you in the process of self-discovery and return to your true self.

Counselling services are also available in Spanish.

We may sometimes feel overwhelmed by the burdens of our lives or disconnected from our feelings or relationships. We may struggle with self-worth and are frustrated that we are not the person we want to be. Sometimes we feel like simply giving up on ourselves and our connections.

My approach to therapy involves creating a warm and compassionate space for couples and individuals who seek therapy. I conduct a thorough assessment of your needs and situation, and together we will set achievable goals. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) we will explore your thought process and challenge unhelpful and negative thinking. With the help of Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), I will help you grow in self-awareness, attachment and self-acceptance. Through family systems techniques, I will support you in fostering stronger connections and healthier ways to communicate. Regularly assessing progress and adjusting strategies, I work collaboratively with clients.

Thank you for the opportunity to support your recovery and witness your progress toward a better future. For over 10 years, I have been honoured to support and improve the lives of youth, adults, couples, and families from diverse cultural, social, and economic backgrounds. Working with people living on the margins of society has instilled in me a passion for making a difference in people’s lives.

I use a client-centred, trauma-informed, strengths-based, and culturally sensitive approach to help clients with diverse challenges, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), substance and behavioural addictions, relationship issues (communication, conflicts, and intimacy), and family challenges ( parenting, substance abuse, life transitions, etc.).

I value professional growth and development, and I am enrolled in several therapeutic modality training and certification courses to serve you better.

Changing how we think, feel, and behave is a complex task. Even with compelling reasons for wanting to change, we struggle against parts of ourselves that seem to resist it at every turn. This is a normal, though often distressing experience—where the mind is in conflict with itself.

Internal conflicts take many forms and frequently shape our emotional lives without us realizing it—quietly and unconsciously undermining our efforts toward change, personal growth, and wellbeing.

Working from a psychodynamic approach, I aim to help individuals gain freedom from internal conflicts that keep them feeling stuck and unfulfilled in life. Psychodynamic therapy is an effective treatment for common, complex, and chronic mental health issues.

Beyond symptom relief, its benefits may also include enhanced occupational, interpersonal, and personality functioning. My background in this approach includes two years of post-graduate education, publications in the peer-reviewed journal Psychodynamic Practice, and personal experience in long-term therapy.

In psychodynamic therapy we pay close attention to troubling patterns of experience in your day- to-day life and significant relationships. We focus on identifying internal conflicts and making

sense of how they keep old, unhelpful patterns alive in the present. Then we take steps to resolve core conflicts, disrupt unhelpful patterns, and develop more adaptive ones in their place. Ultimately, we work together at expanding your freedom to make more conscious choices that align with your core values, emotional needs, and desired life outcomes.

To ensure a personalized therapeutic process, I also integrate techniques from other evidence-based approaches as needed (listed below).

In sum, I am passionate about helping people put insight into action—not only toward symptom relief, but also long-lasting psychological change. I have worked and volunteered in various areas of mental health care since 2019, including crisis intervention, psychiatric inpatient care, behaviour therapy, and community counselling services.

You are the expert on your life, and my role is to walk alongside you in your journey, providing guidance and support while respecting your autonomy and personal choices.

Each person is unique, so I draw from various therapeutic modalities to tailor our sessions to your specific needs and preferences. A crucial aspect of my practice is using a cultural lens. I recognize that cultural factors can significantly impact how we experience and cope with stress and life’s difficulties. By embracing cultural diversity, I aim to foster an inclusive and understanding environment where your background and experiences are respected and integrated into our work.

Having personally experienced exhaustion, anxiety, and uncertainty, I understand what grappling with complex emotions and thoughts is like. I empathize with the struggles you may be facing, and it is this shared human experience that drives me to be deeply compassionate and non-judgmental in our sessions. Together, we will navigate through these feelings, helping you gain clarity and confidence in understanding yourself better. Many of my clients are professionals who face the challenges of burnout, stress, and fatigue, impacting various aspects of their lives. I am dedicated to helping you regain balance and reclaim your well-being.

Together, we will explore strategies to enhance your personal and professional life, strengthen relationships, and improve your overall quality of life.

“Blending together Eastern and Western philosophies, Andrei believes that through developing one’s capacity for self-awareness, individuals can tap into their self-healing capabilities and restore their functionality and enjoyment of life.”

Offering sessions in Russian and English, Andrei believes everyone has an innate capacity to self-heal. Given the right environment, this capacity can be summoned to help process trauma and change. Andrei’s approach works as a mental toolbox by offering a supportive and safe space. Each client is provided with a unique set of tools to explore their capacity for self-awareness and to create strategies that can be used to restore functionality and motivation to live life to its fullest. Informed by his personal experiences of immigration, Andrei is passionate about culturally sensitive work and pays special attention to an individual’s unique life journey and personal growth experience.

Andrei’s areas of focus include any relational issues – be that the relationship the client has with themselves or with another person, or perhaps with their romantic or sexual partner; psychological and physical traumas – things that may hold one back from achieving their full potential, regardless if recent or from the past; and difficult life transitions and decisions – clients have described Andrei as a “personal sounding board” and as a “catalyst” for change. His past academic and professional experiences make him uniquely equipped to work with young professionals and individuals who are completing their education or launching their careers.

Having migrated through Eastern Europe, Israel, and Polynesia before finally settling in North America, Andrei employs a unique blend of the collectivistic, Eastern philosophy and family values, combining it with his Western education and training. While working with a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy foundation, Andrei uses traditional cognitive behavioural strategies in combination with elements of Narrative and Solution Focused Therapies.

He is particularly attentive to the session format, working on blending the more structured CBT interventions with a flexible, client-centred approach.

Modalities Used: • Culturally Responsive Therapy • Adlerian • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) • Narrative Therapy • Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) • Systems Theory/Family Systems • Existential • Relational • Strength Based Therapy • Person Centered • Biopsychosocial Areas of Practice (Demographics Served): • Relationship Issues • Overthinking • Self-Discipline • Codependency • Anxiety • Workplace Stress • Immigration Stress • Culture Shock • Trauma Counselling • Depression • Self-Esteem and Confidence

If you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed and feel that no one around you seems to understand, you are not alone. It can be very challenging to navigate day-to-day life while trying to make sense of this anxiety and stress. Many changes, including breaking up, divorce, job loss, and death of a loved one, can lead to feeling lost or stuck.

Trying to balance two cultures, where on one side are your family’s expectations and on the other are the Western world’s norms around dating, relationships, and work, can confuse identity and self-worth.

Let me help. I have experience working with clients, helping them navigate their feelings around stress, anxiety, relationships, and cultural differences using the psychodynamic approach. I use many techniques, including dream work, free associations, and CBT, to help you better understand yourself and gain control over your narrative.

As a South Asian, I also use a culturally responsive lens to promote healthy boundaries and self-care so that we can work together to explore our identity and self-worth.

If you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed and feel that no one around you seems to understand, y... Read More

Past experiences have taught me that many individuals want someone to simply listen to and journey with them as they navigate their personal challenges and issues. I aim to be that listening ear and individual who can support clients along their difficult journey towards a place of hope by meeting clients where they are in their lives with nonjudgment and compassion.

I strive to create a culturally supportive and safe environment to help clients develop resilience and positive coping skills and live their best lives by managing and overcoming their struggles and hardships.

I believe everyone’s pathway to healing is different, so I tailor my therapeutic techniques and strategies to best align with clients’ needs and goals. I use a variety of modalities in my treatment planning, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Interpersonal Therapy and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy.

I offer psychotherapy services to teens and adults, and my specialty lies in helping those who are struggling with anxiety, depression, body issues, daily life stress and transitions, trauma and grief, to name a few.

I hold an Honors Bachelor of Science Degree in Neuroscience from the University of Toronto and an Ontario College Graduate Certificate in Autism and Behavioral Science from George Brown College. I have obtained my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counselling degree from Liberty University in Virginia in the United States.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario, a crisis responder with the Kids Help Phone and a member of the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals, Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and American Counselling Association.

My hope is to offer a space that feels safe, grounded, and free of judgment, a space where you can show up exactly where you are, without needing to have it all figured out.

As a South Asian immigrant myself, I understand how complex it can be to navigate emotional well-being while also holding cultural expectations and personal identity. I strive to bring a culturally sensitive and trauma-informed lens to therapy.
