Hi there, I’m Katerina!

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s completely normal to feel unsure. My hope is to make this process as comfortable as possible, supporting you every step of the way as you navigate your mental health journey. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process, where you are the expert of your own life, and I’m here to walk alongside you. We’ll explore and use different approaches to find what works best for you, whether that’s Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), or Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).

I’m passionate about creating a space where you feel safe, heard, and free from judgment. My goal is to support you in overcoming challenges, whether they’re related to trauma, anxiety, depression, gender or sexual identity concerns, self-esteem, relationships or a range of other issues. I work with individuals and couples aged 16+ and strive to make sure that everyone feels welcome, regardless of their background. I’m especially committed to working with individuals from the LGBTQ+ community and those from diverse cultural backgrounds, ensuring that therapy is always a space that’s inclusive and affirming.

I hold a Masters of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University, and I work under the supervision of Yoshie Martinez, M.Ed., Registered Psychotherapist.

Sessions are available in-person and virtually, Monday through Thursday. If you think we might be a good fit, please reach out to me here or at katerina.ocp@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you!
