Supporting Individuals, couples and families, with compassionate counselling

Throughout treatment, I'll guide you in learning strategies to challenge unhelpful thoughts and develop healthier ways
- Patricia Arab

Hi, I’m Patricia. I’m a Registered Counselling Therapist (Candidate), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), with 20 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges.

I offer holistic counselling for people of all ages. Whether you’re navigating relationship issues, family dynamics, grief, anxiety, or a season of change, I’m here to walk alongside you. As a therapist of Middle Eastern descent, I also bring a culturally informed and relational lens, especially when working with youth and families, couples, and those seeking support in understanding their identity and lived experiences.

I provide counselling virtually and in-person, creating a warm and grounding space where you can slow down, feel heard, and explore what you need. My approach is rooted in empathy, honesty, and genuine care—because meaningful change begins in authentic connection.

Talking Through It: Mental health resources for youth and families

In our work together, I draw from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you build self-compassion and connect with what truly matters to you; Solution-Focused Therapy to clarify your strengths, resources, and the small steps that can create meaningful change; and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you gently examine the thoughts and patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on and find practical, grounded ways to help you feel more centered, understood, and empowered.

I offer steady, compassionate counselling to every client I meet. I’m here to listen, support, and walk beside you, helping you navigate life’s challenges with clarity, confidence, and care.

Whatever you’re facing right now, you don’t have to do it alone. I offer a supportive and welcoming space where you can explore your concerns, work through what is currently happening in your life,heal from past experiences, and develop healthier ways of coping. You’re welcome here, exactly as you are. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’m here—reach out when you’re ready.
Why Therapy?

Because life can be overwhelming, messy, and sometimes just really hard—and we’re not meant to go through it alone.

Therapy offers a space where you can slow down, be honest, and feel supported without judgment. It’s a chance to understand yourself more deeply, make sense of your experiences, and find new ways forward.

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, relationship struggles, identity questions, or just feeling stuck, therapy can help you reconnect—with yourself, with others, and with what matters most to you.
