Does this sound like you?

  • You're a highly sensitive person or empath. You know you need therapy, but you simply can't afford the expensive fees.
  • You struggle with things like ADHD, anxiety/panic, people pleasing, CPTSD/trauma, depression, boundary setting, relationship issues, recent breakups, career stress, and/or have difficulty regulating big emotions.
  • You have read self-help books, watched the therapy Tiktoks/Reels, tried journaling and meditation, fixed your diet and started exercising, maybe you have even tried therapy before - but you're still stuck.
  • Maybe it's a daily battle with procrastination, lack of focus, self-sabotage, constant worry, rejection sensitivity, or have a hard time regulating emotions.
  • You feel foggy and unclear about what is most important to you, and wonder why you can't just say or do the things you really want to.
  • Often, this can show up as difficulties in interpersonal relationships - either being attracted to the "wrong" people, being unable to find fulfillment in existing relationships, or acting out in your current relationship in ways that you're not proud of.

Nicole Martindale | ADHD | Trauma | Life Purpose | Self Esteem | Are you a young adult (18-35ish) struggling with stress, anxiety, people-pleasing, and emotion regulation? Do you feel like you’re not quite good enough, you can never actually reach your goals, or you just can’t seem to do “life” right?

If you need a therapist who will help you actually PROCESS what's going on, not just let you talk in circles, and if you need somebody who can hold you accountable to making real change in your life, and (lovingly) call you on your patterns - that's my jam. Book a free consultation with me to see how I can help.

Jillian Lavallee | High-Functioning Anxiety | ADHD | CPTSD | Work Stress | Hi, I'm Jillian, and I specialize in helping intelligent, driven, Type A women who feel stuck despite their accomplishments. If your inner critic is relentless, your to-do list feels endless, and life just isn’t fun anymore, I get it. As a corporate professional turned trauma-informed therapist, I specialize in helping high-achieving women slow their intellectualizing brains, manage anxiety, stop people-pleasing, and rediscover their authentic selves. If you're ready to break free from high-functioning anxiety and embrace your true self, set up a free consultation with me today.

Tannaz Hosseinpour | Relationships | Attachment Issues | Cultural Issues | Spirituality | Anxious attachment doesn’t just affect your love life — it hijacks your nervous system. You might be stuck in people-pleasing, self-sabotage, or a constant loop of overthinking and self-blame. I help clients reclaim their voice, set real boundaries, and feel emotionally safe - without having to become someone else.

As a therapist-in-training and host of the top-rated "Minutes On Growth" podcast, I would be honoured to help you turn the chapter. To see how I can help, book your free consultation with me below.

Sarah Shelley | CPTSD | Emotionally Immature Parents | People-Pleasing | ADHD | Are you struggling with the weight of growing up with emotionally immature parents? Do anxiety, panic, and people-pleasing leave you feeling stuck, like you’re never quite enough or can’t seem to live the life you want? You're tired of living in fight-or-flight, but no matter what you try, you end up stuck in the same unproductive patterns.

As somebody who learned the hard way that you can't process trauma on your own - I get it. You need a therapist who will help you process, not just talk. If you're ready to face your patterns, take action, and make real change, book a consultation today.

Autumn Wouda | Overthinking | Perfectionism | Boundaries | Self-Compassion | Hi, I'm Autumn, and if your mind won’t quit, your emotions feel too big, and the to-do list is never ending no matter how much coffee you drink - you’re not alone. On the outside, you’re accomplished and capable. Inside, you’re overwhelmed, burnt out, and constantly second-guessing yourself. I help smart, empathic women break free from perfectionism, people-pleasing, and chronic self-doubt so they can reconnect to joy, self-trust, and purpose.

As a teacher-turned-therapist, I truly do understand the pressure to hold it all together. Together, we’ll work to calm your nervous system, heal old wounds, and build the confidence to live with intention. To see how I can help, book your free consultation below :)

Candice D'Souza | People Pleasing | Boundary Setting | Emotion Regulation | Neurodiversity | You're a deeply sensitive and empathic person who often finds it hard to say “no.” You’ve explored self-help tools—books, meditation, journaling, mindset work—and maybe even therapy, yet you still feel like something isn’t shifting. You might notice patterns like people-pleasing, self-sabotage, overthinking, or constant overwhelm. For some, it shows up as anxiety, ADHD, low self-worth, procrastination, emotional dysregulation, or using things like weed or wine to cope. These struggles often spill into relationships - either by feeling drawn to the wrong people or struggling to feel truly satisfied with the ones you already have.

To see how I can help you break the unproductive patterns that no longer serve you, so you can finally live the life you deserve - book a free consultation with me today :)

Yasmeen Mohsin | CPTSD | Trauma | Depression | People Pleasing | Emotion Regulation | As a therapist who has walked my own path with depression, anxiety, and relationship issues, I know how isolating it can feel to suffer alone, questioning your own self-worth, wondering if this is just "all your fault". It is now my life's work to help others to remember their inner compass.

I take a trauma-informed and culturally-sensitive approach to therapy. If you feel ready to break the patterns that are keeping you stuck in patterns that don't serve you, send me an email to set up a free consultation.
