Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

NATALIE DEL GRANDE

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) 

Have you been considering attending counselling? Maybe you have been feeling stressed or overworked, experiencing relational problems, or just cannot seem to find the time or motivation to get what you need to get done in a day? This can be frustrating and tiresome for a person; however, these problems are not as uncommon as one might think. Many people will try different approaches to tackle these problems on their own and see very little to no progress. This can be disheartening and lead one to feeling stuck in their current situation.

I am a Master of Arts Counselling Psychology student with a CRPO-Qualifying status. I am interested in both individual and couple counselling. My approach is based in Humanistic theory but is personalized to you. My aim is to collaborate with you to work through the different challenges you might be facing. By working together, you will not have to face them alone and will have my support throughout the counselling process.

Social Worker

NADIA KHAN

Registered Social Worker

Throughout our lives, we're shaped as individuals by our experiences with family, friends, relationships, grief, and the challenges life throws our way. Yet, amidst these influences, it's easy to forget to prioritize moments of self-care and grace. This realization is what led Nadia to dedicate her career to the field of social work, with a specific focus on supporting individuals in their journey toward healing as a therapist. 

​

Nadia is deeply committed to making a profound impact on individuals' lives through supportive and therapeutic counseling and psychoeducation. As a BIPOC woman, her personal lived experiences fuel her passion and dedication to marginalized and racial communities. She deeply understand the effects of intergenerational trauma and its influence on our identities and place in the world.

​

Nadia believes in fostering a positive, comfortable, and secure therapeutic alliance with her clients. She has successfully helped individuals from diverse backgrounds, including children and adults struggling with emotional regulation issues, mental health challenges, and those facing family or relationship challenges. Nadia's specialization lies in providing collaborative, goal-focused therapeutic interventions to individuals navigating these complex life dynamics.

​

Nadia can recognize the intricacies involved in pursuing self-improvement, especially in cultures that stigmatize mental health. Her approach seamlessly integrates evidence-based therapies such as ACT, CBT, DBT, Emotion Focused, and Narrative Therapy. Rooted in anti-oppression, her methods are person-centered and solution-focused. Understanding the inner work required to confront life's challenges, Nadia strives to facilitate positive transformations that guide individuals toward inner healing, peace, and fulfillment.
