Our Team
The Therapy Collective
The Therapy Collective is a team of Masters-Level Registered Psychotherapist and Registered Psychotherapists (Q) with the College of Registered Psychotherapist of Ontario.

We have a passion for digging-deep into all-things psychology, to find research-based solutions for people who want to feel better in their bodies and minds. We are not afraid to “think outside the box” and “ask the hard questions” about wellbeing. We are often integrating research from western and eastern psychology to create a balanced approach to wellbeing.

About Us
We are the kind of people who read psychology and wellbeing books for fun, send research articles to each other with subject lines like, “you HAVE to read this!!!!!!”, and who have monthly friday-night wine & dine clinical training nights.We are dedicated to ongoing professional development and invest in staying up to date with current research and practices in the fields of psychology and wellbing.
We prioritize being an inclusive and culturally-sensitive practice. We are always learning from the voices of our diverse community and we are willing to have our narratives challenged and continue to do our work to practice cultural-humility.
