Dearest community,

We can finally share the big news (now that all the official documents are signed)! As of Winter 2026, ✨ANT✨ is expanding and opening our very own full-time clinic in Vaughan! *Picks jaw up from floor*. You heard that right - an actual space that’s ours, all the time, with our name on the door. I still can’t fully believe I get to say that.

This has been a long-held dream of mine. For years I’ve imagined a space built specifically for the way we work: thoughtful, warm, grounded, and intentionally designed for nervous system calm. And right now we’re in the “nesting” phase, which is a very fancy way of saying we’re painting over some aggressively tangerine-orange walls so the place can feel a little more therapy and a little less 2004 basement rec room🙃😂. But it’s truly already starting to feel like home.

Putting this out into the world is equal parts thrilling and terrifying. It’s vulnerable to say I’ve wanted this for so long and that it’s actually happening. There’s something about speaking it publicly that feels like planting a stake in the ground and saying, “Okay… this is real now.”

But I wanted to share it with you because you’ve all been such a meaningful part of this journey. So many of you have grown with us, trusted us, and made this community feel like something worth building on. The heart of our work has always been relational, attachment-focused, experiential, human. And this new space is being created with all of that in mind.
More updates soon… and probably more jokes about the paint situation. For now, thank you sincerely for being here. Your support is the reason this next chapter is even possible 🤍

I’ve practiced AEDP for years now, and I still find myself grateful for this model, and captivated by its true capacity to support tender growth. It’s one of the few approaches where I consistently see people feel different in session, and have that change be transported to their outer lives and important relationships.

Part of why I love being an AEDP practitioner (and self-proclaimed emotions doula) so much is because I’ve experienced it myself as a client. I know what it’s like to be on the other side of the chair, learning how to slow down, feel safe enough to notice what’s really there, and let something shift. That experience changed the way I show up as a therapist. Your AEDP therapist is relational, present, and honours the parts of us that have been protecting us for a long time. Instead of fighting those parts, we get curious with them. We work at a pace that feels safe. And slowly, people start to reconnect with themselves in a way that feels real and earned, instead of from a place of forcing and an urgency to change.

At our clinic, our whole team strives for this kind of work: attachment-focused, relational, and experiential. We show up with people in a way that feels steady, warm, and attuned, because we believe our community deserves therapy that truly supports them. This is the heart of how we practice, and why this work means so much.

Over the years in the clinic, I’ve noticed a pattern in some of the people I work with. They want closeness, but the moment someone gets emotionally near, their body tenses. They might reach out one day and pull away the next, not because they don’t care, but because it suddenly feels overwhelming or unsafe.

I’ve seen how much shame this can carry. People often feel like they’re confusing or difficult, like something is “wrong” with them. What I’ve learned is that these reactions usually come from a nervous system that has learned to protect itself when safety felt inconsistent.

In therapy, we work on noticing these patterns in real time, slowing down automatic reactions, and building experiences of connection that actually feel safe. Over time, people start to realize they can be close without feeling like they’ll lose themselves.
It’s not easy work, but it’s powerful to see someone discover that they can experience connection without fear taking over.

There’s usually a moment in therapy where humour turns into recognition. Where someone says, “We just had big personalities,” and both of us know that’s only part of the story.

Part of the therapy journey, or, the maturity journey at large, is about noticing how we’ve adapted, how what once felt normal might have actually been overwhelming for our little kid selves. How “passionate” sometimes meant unpredictable. How “close” sometimes meant a lack of boundaries, individuation, and respect.

Therapy often invites us to re-translate our childhoods with a more compassionate vocabulary, to understand our nervous systems, our coping patterns, and our tenderness a little better.

If this feels familiar, here are a few reflections that can help you gently unpack it during personal contemplation or meditation, journaling, or with your therapist:

✨ Notice how your body feels when things get “intense” - does it feel safe, or familiar?
✨ Ask yourself what “connection” felt like growing up - was it calm, or chaotic?
✨ Remember that re-learning safety isn’t disloyal to your family (which can be a normal reaction for many when they first start on this process). It truly is an act of car, for you, and for the generations after you.
