About us

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

Hi, I’m Chantelle Vaz! I specialize in supporting children, youth, and young adults with anxiety, depression, neurodivergence (i.e., autism and ADHD), self-esteem, and addictions. At the core of my approach lies a strong belief in building rapport and collaboration. As your therapist, I am dedicated to getting to know you as a person, understanding your values, and identifying your goals to provide a personalized counselling experience.

My integrative approach is rooted in warmth and understanding. I utilize evidence-based techniques from narrative, solution-focused, and person-centered therapies. I believe that therapy isn’t just about unpacking negative experiences and healing wounds; it’s also about fostering personal growth, resilience, and embracing strengths. I am committed to creating a safe and supportive space for youth and young adults to explore and navigate their emotional well-being, empowering them to reach their full potential.

I invite you to connect with me. Together, we can unlock your potential and inspire a journey filled with growth, joy, and resilience. Let’s embark on this journey together!

Hello and Welcome!

Admitting when we need help can be difficult but taking that first step towards improving your mental health is something to be proud of. As a psychotherapist, I will meet you where you are without judgment.

My name is Ryan, and I am a member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) and the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association in good standing. Currently, I am working towards completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I hold a BSc from the University of Waterloo and an MSc from Western University.

No two people are the same, which is why I believe in tailoring my care to the individual. I use an integrated approach to counselling, drawing from a variety of evidence-based modalities. Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or addictions, I will provide a warm space for you to grow and learn. I offer individual, couples, and family counselling for people of all ages, practicing from a culturally safe and trauma-informed lens.

I look forward to meeting you and am excited to be a part of your journey toward healing and personal growth. Reach out today to start your path to well-being.
