Multicultural Therapists in Ontario

I am a Registered Psychotherapist serving individuals, couples, and families in Ontario. Since starting my practice here in Ontario, I have been given the privilege of helping clients overcome their relationship struggles and move forward with their lives. I work collaboratively to set goals with clients, helping them resolve personal problems, conflict in the family, and more. Each session offers a safe space for you to let it all out. My services are available in two languages: English and Russian. I can offer a more personalized service for those who need, since I know the culture, social processes, values, and traditions.

Hi my name is Jackie. Life has surprises for us that can at times be overwhelming. Having to make decisions and make peace with our choices is not always easy, especially if we are now experiencing the ramifications of such. These decisions can be about whether to stay in a relationship or job or how to live with grief. I do my best to work with you through those feelings. We talk about what it is you feel you deserve and why. Topics of forgiveness of self and/or others, self compassion and grace may arise. Expectations and assumptions of grief can be explored. Secondary losses related to grief is also something that may come up.

Reproductive experiences can be overwhelming and emotional. Pregnancy, birth, postpartum...these are vast major life experiences that deserve to be honoured through community support and therapeutic care. I am here to provide respectful, sensitive psychotherapy to those seeking a therapist with years of firsthand experience of supporting individuals and their families through the challenges of reproductive health care and the perinatal experience. I invite you to participate in dynamic, creative therapy that can improve your journey through these tumultuous times.

All of us struggle at some point with challenges in our lives. It’s normal. There is nothing wrong with asking for help. You may feel anxious or depressed. You may think that you are missing what’s important for you in terms of your cherished values. You may feel emotionally overwhelmed by work, relationships, or other life stressors.

In order to feel safe and in control, you may have learned certain survival and coping strategies to keep you grounded. Perhaps you are a child of immigrants, struggling to exist between two cultures. Or maybe you were afraid to disappoint others and taught yourself to never have any needs or boundaries. These behaviours, while understandable, may no longer serve you in the ways that you need. Together, we can explore and unpack your life experiences, offer understanding and validation to the shutdown parts of you, and learn to take up space and exist in our world. Psychotherapy can promote healing, resiliency, and self-empowerment.

Together we can explore topics like anxiety, workplace or school stress, anger, self-esteem, culture, and belonging.

If you've found your way here, it means you're ready to begin a journey – one that may have its share of ups, downs, and unexpected detours. But you're not alone. My name is Vanessa and I'm here to walk alongside you. Through my experience in mental health crisis response services, I learned that behind every struggle lies a story of vulnerability, fears, worries, aspirations, and resilience. I recognized that we all face challenges that can feel hopeless at times. This strengthened my desire to become a therapist and work with individuals in need of support to navigate the complexities of their stories.

My practice is focused on helping individuals struggling with various forms of distress such as depression, anxiety, and trauma. I use my expertise to help individuals understand the factors that shaped their experience of the world and to become more flexible with how they act, relate, think, and make decisions. Clients will also be supported to develop healthier coping strategies to lessen the negative impact that chronic distress can have on their capacity to strive for meaningful goals. The client's internal resources and strengths are engaged to aid in the pursuit of these goals.
