Therapy is your unique journey. You are the expert of your life. I am here to walk beside you on your path to healing, creating your new life and regenerating.

Hi! I’m Elena, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and I help people regenerate their lives. I believe that we have the ability to restart our lives at any point and become the highest version of ourselves. It all begins with the mind. I have fallen into a liminal threshold many times in my life. I have been stuck in between where I am and where I want to go. Thankfully my knowledge as a therapist has aided me to push past these obstacles. Now it’s my turn to share that with you. Through evidence-based therapy and soul-rooted guidance, I help you reconnect with your inner wisdom, rewire old patterns and step fully into the life you're meant to live.

Votre expérience thérapeutique avec moi

I am a strong believer that we are lifelong learners and sometimes we learn best by building connections with others, in this case, me, your therapist. By working together in a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space, we can explore absolutely anything and everything that is on your mind. Together we can help bring you closer to the highest, most healed version of yourself. I favour an integrative approach to therapy, where we can pick and choose pieces of certain theories and practices that fit best to your needs. I take a trauma-informed, and culturally informed stance in my practice to ensure your comfort and understanding.

Approches thérapeutiques

Voici mes principales approches thérapeutiques, soutenues par une formation spécialisée et une expérience clinique approfondie.

Thérapie basée sur la sensibilisation au trauma (Trauma-informed Therapy)

I work with your nervous system, not against it. This approach helps you feel safe, regulated, and empowered while exploring painful past experiences.

Thérapie d'acceptation et d'engagement (Acceptance And Commitment Therapy)

ACT helps you make space for difficult emotions instead of fighting them. Together, we clarify your values and take meaningful action toward the life you want.

Théorie des Sous-systèmes Intrapsychiques (IFS)

IFS helps you connect with the different “parts” of yourself — even the ones you try to avoid. By understanding their roles, we can bring compassion and healing to your inner world.

Thérapie axée sur les solutions (Solution-focused Therapy)

Rather than staying stuck in the problem, we focus on what’s already working. This approach helps you build confidence, set goals, and take small steps toward change — fast.

J’intègre également ces approches fondées sur des données probantes lorsque cela est cliniquement pertinent :

Thérapie de traitement cognitif (Cognitive Processing Therapy)

Thérapie narrative (Narrative Therapy)

thérapie cognitive et comportementale (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy)

thérapie centrée sur les émotions (Emotionally Focused Therapy)

Approche somatique (Somatic Approach)

Approche basée sur les forces (Strength-based Approach)

FAQ

What can I expect in our cosultation?

Our consultation is a time for you and I to briefly discuss what it is that you're looking for our of therapy, and out of your desired therapist. I'll ask you some questions about your experience, your past and your goals. I'll tell you about myself and my approach. This is a great way to see if we will be a good fit and ask any relevant questions!

Who is therapy for?

Anyone and everyone! Therapy is an intentional journey that anyone can benefit from. This space can be dedicated to deep healing, working through symptoms of a mental health disorder, or even as a place to just talk to someone who will listen. It is your time and it can be tailored to your liking.

How does therapy work with you?

Therapy is a collaborative process that supports your emotional, psychological, and relational well-being. We work together to explore the challenges you're facing, whether it's trauma, anxiety, life transitions, relationship struggles, or self-discovery. In sessions, you'll be invited to reflect, process emotions, and develop tools that help you shift patterns and create meaningful change. Therapy isn’t about being “fixed”. It’s about regeneration, building self-awareness to move forward.

Where will our sessions be held?

Currently, all sessions are held virtually though a secure tele-health platform, Jane. You’ll be able to create a profile, access your files, update your payment, receive receipts and join virtual sessions through Jane!

How often should I book sessions?

We recommend that individuals and couples start out with weekly sessions initially. This allows us to build a strong therapeutic relationship and understand your goals. Once goals are being met, the frequency of sessions is reduced. If you are undergoing the The RISE Framework™, you will be on a specific collaborative therapy schedule.

What is unique about you?

At Liminal Mind Therapy, we specialize in guiding you through the deep work of regeneration — healing old wounds, breaking cycles, and creating new neural pathways for lasting change. I've created the RISE Framework, a 12-week therapy intensive to regenerate your life. The goal is to move beyond survival to thriving. This is for people at a turning point (burnout, major transitions, trauma recovery, addictions, self-sabotoge).
