Our clients, our stories

Our clients' stories highlight the real-life experiences of individuals

James, age 9, ADHD

By session 11, his teacher messaged us unprompted to ask what we had changed. He had raised his hand and waited. That had never happened before. After 28 sessions his ADHD score dropped from the 97th percentile to the 63rd. He slept. He read books for fun. We got our son back

North York

Lena, age 22, depression

I had been on antidepressants since I was 19. I came in not because I felt bad, I felt nothing at all. After 8 sessions the fog started lifting. I cried watching a film. That sounds small. It was the most alive I had felt in three years

Lena.S

Toronto

Diana's son Marcus, 7, anxiety

Life is full of challenges, and they can feel overwhelming at times. Whether it’s personal loss, stress, or a major transition, the weight of these struggles can leave us feeling isolated and stuck.

Fatima, 47, depression and anxiety

The depression had been with me so long I had stopped calling it that. I just called it my personality. Sleep shifted first, around session 6. Then energy. After 22 sessions I went back to painting, something I had abandoned in 2018 and genuinely believed I no longer cared about. Turns out I cared. I had just stopped being able to feel it

Fatima

Richmond Hill

Thomas, 41, OCD

I checked the locks 12 times every night. I knew it was irrational. I could not stop. After 18 sessions it dropped to twice. After 30, the urge was still there but it was background noise, not a siren. That is the difference between a life and a ritual

Thomas.N

Toronto

Sarah, anxiety and panic disorder

I had built my entire life around avoidance. At 34 I realised I had not driven on a highway in four years, had not been to a restaurant without an exit plan, had not taken a job I wanted because of the commute. Session 12, I drove to the airport alone. I did not tell anyone until I got there
