Melodi Laframboise, Registered Psychotherapist (ON)

Hi, I’m Melodi, and I’m glad you’ve found your way here. This space is meant for reflection, clarity, and growth. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you and gently uncover new ways of relating to yourself and others. My role is to offer care, insight, and a steady presence as you take steps toward feeling more grounded and connected.

Background

My name is Melodi, and I am a Registered Psychotherapist. My path into this work began with curiosity about human experience and deepened through my own journey of growth and learning. I value meaningful human connection and see therapy as a place where understanding and change can take root. I often work with adults navigating self-worth, relationships, and identity—those seeking to untangle family dynamics, manage stress or burnout, and reconnect with what feels authentic and fulfilling.

Your therapeutic experience with me

In therapy with me, you can expect warmth, curiosity, and a balance of practical support and deeper reflection. At times we’ll use concrete tools—like CBT strategies—to help ease stress and bring clarity. At other times, we’ll explore the underlying feelings and patterns shaping your experiences. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and attuned, offering a space where you can feel seen and supported as you move toward greater confidence and self-understanding.

Therapeutic approaches

These are my primary therapeutic approaches, backed by specialized training and extensive clinical experience.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

This work offers the “band-aids”: the practical tools to help you manage immediate challenges. It helps us recognize, challenge, and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, so you can feel more in control and cope better day to day.

Existential Therapy

This deeper work involves exploring life’s big questions: meaning, purpose, and identity. Together, we’ll provide the “stitches” that help you heal beneath the surface, creating lasting clarity and a more authentic connection to yourself, even in uncertainty.

Person-centered Approach

At the heart of all our work is a person-centered approach. Offering you a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly seen and heard. This foundation supports both the practical “band-aids” and deeper “stitches,” empowering your healing and growth in a way that honors your unique journey.

Strength-based Approach

I focus on your strengths and resilience, helping you uncover the inner resources you already have. By building on what’s working well, we create a positive, empowering path forward so you can face challenges with confidence and hope.

I also incorporate these evidence-based approaches when clinically appropriate:

Internal Family Systems

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attachment Focused Therapy

Mindfulness

Solution-focused Therapy

FAQ

How do I pay for sessions?

Upon booking your first session, you will complete a client intake form which stores your credit card information. After your session, the stored card will be automatically charged, and an insurance receipt will be sent to your email. I offer a 20-minute FREE consultation video call to see about fit.

Are my sessions covered by my insurance?

If you have extended coverage (benefits) for Registered Psychotherapists, your sessions should be covered!

What can I expect in our first session?

Our first session is about getting to know each other. I’ll ask some questions to better understand what’s bringing you to therapy and what you’re hoping for. There’s no pressure to dive too deep right away—we’ll go at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Do I need to have everything figured out?

Not at all. Many people come to therapy feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or stuck. You don’t need to have the right words or a clear goal—we’ll figure things out together.

How long does therapy take?

It really depends on your goals and what you’re working through. Some people come for a few months, others stay longer. We’ll check in regularly to make sure therapy continues to feel useful and aligned with your needs.

How long are the sessions?

All sessions are 50-minutes.

Where do the sessions take place?

Sessions occur over secure HIPPA-compliant video. They are 100% confidential and privacy protected.

Did you know?

Something unexpected about me is that I love listening to heavier music and enjoy concerts of this genre - the crowd and the energy!

I love plants and have a small collection of houseplants that all have names. This was probably what kept me in my biology minor!
