YourTherapist Psychotherapy and Counselling

Registered Psychotherapist

In-Person

Life doesn’t come with a manual and many of us can get stuck in thoughts, habits, or patterns that are difficult to see when we’re going through them. Things can become more complicated when we suffer from childhood trauma, PTSD, depressive symptoms, or the anxiety of future. At YourTherapist Psychotherapy and Counselling, we help you achieve your mental health goals and live a more content life.

Myroslava Tyzkyj

Registered Psychotherapit

Therapy isn’t about fixing you — because you’re not broken. You’re human, and that’s messy enough. Adulting can feel like assembling IKEA furniture without the manual — confusing, frustrating, and somehow missing a crucial piece. Together, we’ll make space to breathe, reflect, and build a life that feels more grounded, more honest, and more like you. No perfection required.

Beth Thiessen

Registered Psychotherapist

Virtual

You're feeling disappointed that relationships never seem to last past a certain point. As far as you remember, you had a fairly “normal” childhood, but why is it so difficult to get close to others? Relational wounds heal through new experiences of positive relationship, and therapy can be a great place to explore that in a safe and structured way.
