Shayesteh Zarieh | 註冊心理治療師（見習中）

Let’s be honest—starting therapy isn’t always a bold, empowered choice. Sometimes it’s a quiet, messy, or reluctant one. Maybe you’re simply tired of pretending everything’s fine. This space is for the parts of you that don’t have to be impressive, productive, or put-together. The parts that are unsure, grieving, angry, numb, or just curious about what else is possible.

背景

"Transforming minds, building resilience" - This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about being heard, being seen, and learning how to work with your defenses rather than against them. We build resilience together—through insight, safer coping, and compassionate exploration. I hold dual degrees in Psychology and Health Policy, with certifications from the University of Toronto and TICP. With 7+ years in social service and healthcare, I bring both depth and practicality to the work. My lens is psychodynamic, relational, and culturally aware; especially for those navigating identity, burnout, or complex family dynamics.

與我經歷治療的體驗

Therapy with me is spacious and client-led. I follow your pace, your stories, your associations; because the way you speak reveals more than any structured checklist ever could. I bring a calm, grounding presence, with warmth and just enough humour to keep things human. Clients often tell me they feel deeply heard, gently challenged, and surprised by how much more they uncover; sometimes leaving with better questions, not just answers. We don’t rush to “fix” anything. Instead, we explore what’s underneath with curiosity, care, and emotional honesty.
