Daniella Sanchez, Registered Social Worker (ON)

Hi, and welcome. I'm really glad you found your way here. If you're reading this, there's likely a part of you that’s longing for something.Whether that be relief, clarity, connection, or simply to feel more like yourself again. Maybe you're carrying stories, patterns, or pain that no longer feel like yours to hold. Whatever has brought you here, I want you to know: you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. Let's walk this journey together.

Background

I believe true healing happens when we approach ourselves with curiosity and compassion, and begin to explore what's beneath the surface. I work with individuals who are ready to explore the roots of their emotional patterns. Those who want to understand the “why” behind their behaviours, relationships, and inner struggles. If you're feeling anxious, emotionally overwhelmed, or burdened by unprocessed experiences, I provide a safe and compassionate space where you can reconnect with yourself and begin to move forward with greater clarity and intention.

Your therapeutic experience with me

Together, we can explore how early experiences and past wounds may still be shaping the way you show up in the world today. A central part of my work focuses on building a stronger relationship with the self. Cultivating self-worth, developing inner confidence, and healing the parts of you that feel unseen or not enough. If you've ever felt disconnected from who you truly are or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, I aim to meet you where you are to gently guide you toward deeper insight, and lasting change.

FAQ

What can I expect when working with you?

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s completely normal to have questions or uncertainties. My goal is to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and collaborative, where you feel seen, heard, and understood.My approach is rooted in curiosity, compassion, and a deep respect for each person’s unique story. Together, we’ll explore not only the challenges you’re facing but also the patterns, relationships, and past experiences that may be shaping how you feel today.

What can I expect from our first meeting?

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and begin building a connection. You’ll have the space to share what’s bringing you to therapy, and I’ll ask some gentle questions to better understand your experiences, goals, and what support might be most helpful for you. There’s no pressure to share everything all at once we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I’ll also explain how I work and answer any questions you might have.

How long does therapy take?

The length of therapy varies from person to person, depending on your goals, needs, and what you're hoping to work through. Some people come for a few months to focus on a specific issue, while others choose to engage in deeper, longer term work. We’ll check in regularly to make sure the process feels supportive and aligned with what you’re looking for.

How often will we meet?

Most clients begin with weekly sessions, especially in the early stages of therapy, to build momentum and trust. As we continue, we can reassess together and adjust the frequency based on your goals, capacity, and what feels most supportive. Bi-weekly sessions can also be an option. The choice is ultimately yours.

How much do sessions cost?

Individual therapy: $160 per 50-minute session Couples therapy: $190 per 50-minute session
