Psychotherapy In The City

Psychotherapy In The City Making Sense Together: Individual & Couple Psychotherapist. Registered Psychotherapist, Relationship Expert & Life Coach. Everyone’s story is different.

Making Sense Together: Individual Counselling
I work with people on understanding themselves, being more self aware and their relationship with others. I do this by working with my clients in discovering patterns, understanding their organizing principals and themselves with others. People come to see me for many reasons. Some might be feeling stuck, dealing with a tough moment in their life and need someone to listen to them and help make sense of what is happening for them. Everyone's story is different. I can help. Some of the areas of my work:
Depression & Anxiety
Addictions
Relationship Counseling
Unresolved Childhood Issues
Self Worth Issues (inner and outer self image)
Mental Health Concerns
Career and/or Big life Changes
First Time Partent Anxieties
Infertility Issues
LGBT Issues
Loss & Grief

Working With Couples to Building a Stronger Connection: Working with couples is about understanding both individuals and how they come together. My job is to help you navigate through your relationship and help you both feel more connected throughout communication and intimacy. Parent Counselling: A deeper self-understanding can help you raise children to thrive. Parent Therapy is a good practice to understand your own experiences and feelings around life and parenting and how this may impact your child. For expecting parents as well.

Hormones don’t just affect your body they can shape your mood, emotions, sleep, and mental health too.

From monthly cycles to perimenopause, stress, and hormonal changes over time, fluctuations can leave you feeling anxious, low, irritable, or “not quite yourself.” Understanding what’s happening can be a powerful first step toward feeling more balanced and supported.

Our latest blog explores the link between mental health and hormones, common signs your mood may be hormonally driven, and what you can do about it.

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to our event Mind In Motion! 🤍

We’re so grateful for each of you who showed up, slowed down, and shared the space with us.

A huge thank you to our incredible facilitators: Magz, who led us through a gentle, trauma-informed yoga practice, and therapists Brooke & Mia, who offered practical tools for everyday mental wellness. This wasn’t about “doing it right”, it was about tuning in, supporting our nervous systems, and exploring tools we can actually bring into our lives, especially during the winter months.

We hope you left feeling more settled, connected, and supported. Thank you for being part of such a thoughtful, nourishing afternoon ✨

Substance use disorder isn’t always obvious. It doesn’t always involve losing everything or hitting a dramatic breaking point. Often, it shows up quietly, needing something to unwind, to cope, or to get through the day. It can look like making promises to yourself that don’t quite stick, feeling uneasy when you try to stop, or finding ways to justify a behavior even when part of you feels concerned.

Many people hesitate to take their own doubts seriously because they believe their situation “isn’t bad enough.” But wondering whether something has too much control over you is meaningful. You don’t need a label, certainty, or a crisis to seek support. Paying attention to these subtle signals is often how change begins.

If this resonates, know that help doesn’t require judgment, just curiosity, honesty, and compassion for yourself.

12/28/2025

Melia’s journey into psychotherapy is grounded in a deep respect for people’s stories and a genuine desire to support meaningful growth and healing. She is passionate about creating a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients feel seen, understood, and empowered to explore their experiences at their own pace.

One of the most impactful aspects of her work so far has been learning to embrace complexity, recognizing that growth isn’t linear and that sitting with uncertainty can be a powerful part of the therapeutic process. Melia brings empathy, patience, and curiosity into every session.

✨ We’re excited to share that after completing her internship with us, Melia will officially be joining the team as a Therapist in 2026. We’re so proud of her journey and grateful to continue working alongside her.
