I am an intuitive healer with certification as a Reiki Master and a Registered Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist.
I provide a gentle presence and support to people who would like to restore their health and experience their wholeness by working with the Universal Life Force Energy in Reiki and offering a neutral presence and touch in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy.
Sometimes words can be too much or not enough. Both modalities offer a way to process life through sensation or silence.
My focus is to provide a supportive space to allow the body, mind and spirit to express as needed.

I am a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist, having received a Master of Social Work from the University of Toronto. I ground my practice in social constructivism, and I draw from a diverse range of interventions, from Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) and psychodynamic orientations. I have received training and supervision and continue to pursue training in several CBT and psychodynamic orientated interventions and structured therapy models to treat trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
I have worked with from all walks of life who have endured various challenges and have had different expectations out of therapy. I have worked with people who needed some short-term support, long-term support and everything in between. When working with clients who have never been to therapy before, one of my goals in our work is to explore their understandings of therapy and therapists. Regardless of how long we work together, I feel it is important for me to impart on all clients their level of comfort with their therapist should always be a priority.
Two principles also guide my work as a therapist. First, I see my clients as the expert of their life, and view my role within the therapy journey as levering my professional knowledge to your benefit. Second, recovery is rarely a linear process, and the unpredictable nature of life can influence it. I seek to normalize the complexity of life, encourage self-compassion, and affirm the glimmers of your strengths and resiliency that come up when talking about the past, and over the duration of our work. These principles are critical to the maintenance of a therapeutic alliance that is respectful of your intersecting identities, and safely invites you to make explicit any thoughts, emotions, and feelings that are critical to understanding how I can best be of help.

I have a background in Child and Youth Care, specifically within the shelter and transitional housing systems. I support youth in navigating mental health, developing coping skills, and building greater self-esteem and self-acceptance.

Hi, I’m Nicole. I’m a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator. For the past 10 years, I have supported patients with diabetes and various other chronic diseases and nutrition concerns in making diet changes and improving their health and quality of life.
I have also worked with children and families and would love to help you lessen food related stressors in the home by disentangling the confusing and often contradictory nutrition information available, providing meal planning strategies and addressing “picky eating”.
I’m passionate about helping people reach their health and wellness goals and improve their relationships with food and their bodies.
I believe that everyone has unique experiences, goals, and needs, and tailor my recommendations and plans to each individual.
There is no “quick fix”, but having a safe, supportive space to make informed, gradual changes can have a huge impact on your life and health.
I take a non-diet approach to nutrition, and help people improve their health while continuing to eat foods they enjoy and that fit into their lifestyle. I will meet you where you are, without judgement, and help you work towards change at your pace.

There are times in life when we get caught in patterns that interfere with our ongoing progress, and some of these patterns may be initiated in childhood and infancy. Addressing these long-standing patterns within a safe, therapeutic context can be the basis for creating meaningful change.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one therapeutic method that can be used to help you to get around these problems in the present, and better regulate your thoughts and feelings. My approach to CBT is flexible and informed by a Solution-Focused perspective, where we explore your wants, needs, and choices to develop a plan of action that will facilitate change. This process can also be informed by connecting past experiences to current patterns of thoughts, behaviors and feelings.
I have a particular interest in development across the lifespan and have worked in the fields of psychology and research for the past 25 years. I am available to work with clients of all ages from adolescence and up.

As a registered psychotherapist (CRPO, Qualifying), expressive arts therapist, and mother, I bring a depth of knowledge and skill to my work. My style is relaxed, and people tend to connect with me quickly because I am straightforward and open-minded.
Theoretically, I adopt a holistic lens that incorporates Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, combined with creative and values-driven approaches. I also work from a trauma- and nervous-system-informed perspective, meaning my approach is embodied, strength-based, anti-oppressive, and relational.
My goal is to meet you where you are at and help you untangle the pieces of your life that feel stuck.

Growing up, I was privileged enough to be put into a lot of activities such as gymnastics, swimming, karate, piano and vocal lessons. I stuck to swimming and piano early into high school and realized I was not interested in pursuing them any further, but my love for sports and being active is what came of it. Now, I enjoy playing a variety of sports such as volleyball (court and beach), badminton, ultimate frisbee, Spikeball, and most recently, I have gotten into snowboarding. Maintaining an active lifestyle led me to pursue a career within the health care field, more specifically massage therapy. I have always had an affinity for holistic healing and have stayed curious as to how I might be able to better incorporate the principles of massage not just into my personal life, but also into the lives of others.
I graduated from the Massage Therapy Program at Humber College and I am eager to establish my practice by applying the invaluable lessons I have learned both personally and professionally. Prior to my studies at Humber, I obtained my BA in Psychology from York University.
My practice is focused on a collaborative approach by both massage therapist and client in order to achieve health goals, big and small, while still delivering quality care in a meaningful and impactful way.

Congratulations on taking the first (and often most difficult) step towards healing and building resiliency: seeking therapy and reaching out! My job is to support you as we work to understand your own unique patterns (thoughts, emotions, behaviours), and be your co-pilot in the process of creating a happier and healthier life. Together, we will process your life challenges, collaborate to gain coping skills and build perspective to help manage your experiences, and ultimately become the ‘best version’ of yourself. I am passionate about bringing authenticity to sessions, with lightheartedness while encouraging individual creativity.
I approach therapy with the belief that each individual has a unique way of understanding the world; our realities and brain development are the sum of our experiences. I am open-minded and culturally inclusive, pulling from different therapeutic frameworks depending on each client’s unique needs/issues, goals for therapy, and techniques that resonate.
My promise is to be present with you, providing a space that is open, empathetic, free of any judgment and safe for you to be who you are in this moment, as we work to build a trusting relationship where you feel seen, heard and understood. Through genuine collaboration, we can explore what therapy approaches might be best for you.

I’m a Registered Social Worker who is interested in supporting adolescents and young adults through their transitional years. I use my experience of having mental illness as a teenager to inform my current practice. I am proudly the sensitive, annoying, hyperactive and “crazy” kid who grew up to be a therapist. I draw on several therapeutic modalities, such as DBT, CBT, CBT-E and ACT, to support the unique needs of my clients. I offer a non-judgmental, creative, and affirming space for my clients by utilizing trauma-informed and feminist-informed lenses that consider my clients within their current contexts.
Before becoming a social worker, I completed my Masters of Social Work at the University of Toronto where I specialized in Children and Their Families. Prior to my MSW, I also completed a Master of Arts in Child and Youth Studies at Brock University where I studied bullying, attachment and parenting. I have more than a decade of experience working with young people in a variety of capacities including community, educational and forensic mental health settings. When I’m not seeing clients at the Growth and Wellness Therapy Centre, I’m part of a crisis outreach team that supports individuals in the community who are experiencing acute mental health concerns.

I always knew I wanted to pursue a career in health and fitness. I grew up taking part in a variety of sports, including softball, track, and taekwondo, and currently remain active in my downtime with downhill skiing, and cycling. Over the years I have seen a number of friends and family members injure themselves during various activities. Seeing them go through the rehabilitative process sparked an interest in me to learn more about the human body, and has ultimately led me to massage therapy.
I graduated from Sutherland-Chan School and Teaching Clinic in 2014 and have since then established my practice in midtown Toronto. I currently work as a Professor at Humber College in the massage therapy program, and I previously worked at Sutherland-Chan as an instructor. Prior to studying massage therapy, I received my B.

Mandy is available for appointments on Mondays. To book, please contact the office or Mandy directly.
After graduating from Wilfrid Laurier University, I began my career in Accounting and Finance, however after 10 years in the industry I decided to change direction. I returned to school and completed a second undergraduate degree in Psychology, Neuroscience and Behaviour from McMaster University. My undergraduate degree inspired me to pursue a Master of Social Work and to learn more about brain science and incorporate it into my work. I completed my Master of Social Work specializing in Children and Families at The University of Toronto.
I have worked with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, life changes, childhood trauma, attachment issues, grief, ADHD, parenting and family problems. For Couples work I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). EFT was created by Sue Johnson and Les Greenberg over 30 years ago and research has shown it is effective. EFT helps couples through strengthening of their attachment bonds so that they feel safe and secure with their partner. EFT helps couples with their negative interaction patterns by de-escalating conflict, slowing things down and working with couples to help them express how they think and feel to each other. We will work together to resolve the relationship distress by deepening your understanding of what is going on underneath the surface for yourself and your partner and help you to connect in a respectful and loving manner.
My therapeutic practice is informed by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Gottman Method, Family Systems Theory and Self Compassion. I believe in working from a client(s) centered and collaborative approach, which means you will drive the therapeutic process and I am here as a guide. I am also continuously taking courses to ensure I am able to offer clients a variety of therapeutic options. I believe it is important to be curious and non-judgmental and I have found that when clients feel heard and seen it begins the healing process. It would be my privilege to join you in your journey of healing and self-discovery.
