I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who specializes in working with individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, and self-esteem challenges. I have worked in a variety of settings supporting the well-being and mental health of children, youth and young adults and families.

Over the years, I have sought out educational and work experiences to build and enhance my therapeutic skills. My experiences enabled me to improve my knowledge of cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, building trusting therapeutic relationships, practicing compassion and empathy, and implementing mindfulness within my counselling sessions. I also use a holistic and strength-based approach, helping clients to recognize their strengths and goals.

I am a well-rounded individual who is friendly, outgoing, compassionate, and who will work with you to create a safe space for you to talk and to determine what approach and strategies fits best with your needs.

During our time together you can expect to receive a compassionate space to be heard, supported, and empowered. Drawing from an integrative theoretical stance, and mind-body approach to wellbeing, my therapeutic lens is geared to assist you in building self-awareness, regulating your nervous system, and processing emotional pain so you can improve the quality of your life!

Some areas I enjoy working with in particular are life transitions, anxiety, relationship challenges, stress management, self worth, and identity. However, if your needs fall outside that range of topics, I would be more than happy to support you! Offering a customised therapeutic approach and treating each individual as unique is a value I always keep in mind. Regardless of what brings you to seeking therapy, I hope to provide a coherent and genuine space for you to be met exactly where you are.

My top priority is establishing a safe, compassionate, and respectful space where you can freely explore your concerns. Through a collaborative approach, I am dedicated to supporting others through life’s challenges, making use of my own experiences as a new mother, student, wife, and someone who has dealt with anxiety.

Navigating the complexities of life, I understand the importance of meeting you where you are, offering empathy, openness, and non-judgmental listening. I’m here to help you manage overwhelming feelings, setbacks, and behavior patterns, providing guidance and therapeutic tools. More importantly, I strive to empower you to tap into your inner resources and strengths for meaningful change.

I am completing my Master of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and hold a Bachelor of Arts degree from Western University, majoring in both psychology and childhood and social institutions. Additionally, I am a Registered Psychotherapist (qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. I believe in a holistic approach to wellness and draw primarily from the therapeutic techniques of Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy.

Speaking to my background, I bring a wealth of experience from my previous work with individuals diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. This has equipped me with extensive knowledge in utilizing behavioral strategies. Additionally, I have experience using a trauma informed approach to support individuals with anxiety, depression, stress, coping skills, emotion regulation, self-esteem and life transitions. My personal journey includes facing the challenges of anxiety, which enhances my understanding and empathy. I recognize the courage it takes to seek support, and I commend you for taking this important step. If you’re interested in starting therapy, I invite you to reach out today to determine if I’m a good fit for your journey.

I know what it’s like to be disconnected from yourself and stuck in suffering, and I also know what it’s like to feel at home in yourself and at peace in your life. The journey from one place to the other is non-linear and sometimes lonely. Let me walk beside you in the process.

I’m a Masters of Counselling Psychology Student, Certified Yoga Teacher, and Mental Health speaker with a passion for blending mindfulness and person-centred practices into a holistic counselling approach. I use my 10+ years of yoga and meditation teaching experience and my lived experience with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, and sobriety to inform my counselling practices. What does this mean? I have a variety of personal and professional tools that can help you recover and thrive in the same way I’ve helped myself.

In addition to mindfulness-based practices like breathwork, meditation, and journaling, I use CBT, DBT, and Experiential techniques to help you understand, explore, and come home to yourself. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, addiction, eating disorders, grief, trauma, and general stress. I look forward to guiding you towards fulfillment, contentment, and inner peace.

Hello! I am so happy you are here.

My name is Stephany Stathopoulos and as your trusted therapist, I am on your team, unconditionally. There is absolutely no need to show up as anything or anymore than your true self with me. Your needs, desires, and comfort are the cornerstone of my practice. In our sacred space, I will walk alongside you as a secure anchor in your life mirroring that of trust, safety, and a non-judgemental atmosphere. Although pain is an inevitable and natural part of the human experience, you don’t have to go through it alone. We will work collaboratively to untangle what is happening for you.

I will meet you where you are at using a holistic lens and integrative approach to connect with different parts of you: the courageous parts, the fearful parts, and the parts saying “I don’t know”. We can gently approach these together.

I work well with clients who are motivated to learn about themselves and walk in the direction of the life they desire.
