Stacey Molengraaf

Registered Psychotherapist, Student RP (Qualifying), RPC-C (Candidate)
(Currently Accepting New Clients) Hello and welcome! I'd like to start by acknowledging that starting with a new therapist can be super awkward, vulnerable, and challenging. It's a big risk to step out and say, "I'm struggling" or "I want something different for myself." My hope is to offer a safe space for you to show up as you are and sit with you in the complexity of life. One metaphor I love to use when talking about the therapy process is that we often come to therapy with a knotted-up bundle of yarn. Maybe this ball of yarn is formed from one type of yarn; maybe it's a mishmash of many colours, sizes and textures. However complex and knotted the yarn, I am here to sit with you as you notice, untangle, and wind up the ball. What I mean by this is I am here to help you make sense of yourself, listen to your story, and offer my support along the way so you can move towards your goals. If what I've shared resonates with you, please feel free to reach out to book a 20 to 30-minute free consultation. During this time, we will talk a bit about what brings you in and a bit about my approach and decide if we are a good match for the therapy journey.

Gwen Shandroski, Expressive Arts Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist

Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc, S-LP(C), R.P.
I help my clients/patients feel comfortable to begin therapy. I have gone through this process as a client and as a therapist many times. Feeling understood and having someone help you take a look at what is going on can be very refreshing and provide some hope. My background in speech-language pathology has prepared me to work with clients who have difficulty expressing themselves. Expressive arts therapy is an alternative way to reach feelings and represent the experience you're having.

Adrienne Sharma-Richardson PhD MEd RP OCT

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Gestalt Psychotherapist Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Gottman Trained Couples Therapist
As a gestalt psychotherapist, who pairs gestalt training with somatic experiencing I can help support you in healing from your trauma. No one in the Niagara Region utilizes the combination of these therapies and applies them to working with couples in crisis. Gottman (couples) and Post Induction Therapy training (relational/developmental trauma) I am sorry to say but popular approaches to healing trauma like CBT will provide only temporary relief at best. If you want to get to the root of your trauma and heal somatic experiencing (SE) is what you need and when supported with the power of relational gestalt therapy you will shift your shit! SE focuses on regulating your nervous system. With SE work trauma responses are completed and energy is released back into the system and with this the resolution and disappearance of physical complaints, including headaches, digestive problems, and pain syndromes can be resolved, and emotional regulation can be restored. I will teach you how to work with your stress response - the body's innate alarm system in response to a perceived danger, also called the "Fight or Flight" response. It is highly adaptive to danger and human survival when threats are physical, but less so when threats are psychological, or imaginary, among other somatic and relational skills. I have been trained under Dr Abi Blakeslee part of Dr Peter A Levine's legacy group out of California for Somatic Experiencing and the late great Dr Bud Feder the author of Beyond the Hot Seat was on my dissertation committee overseeing a phenomenological study of the effectiveness of a gestalt therapy group I created to reduce stress in working informal caregivers of the elderly. I named the group process Stressed WOW (We Overloaded with Work). Gestalt therapy is an extremely complex psychotherapy, too complex to describe in this short space. The power of its effectiveness can only be experienced. Most present day therapies have stolen bits and pieces of its praxis. Get the whole again with a holistic, here and now, experiential therapy. I am here for you... I've got your six!
