Online Counselling in Toronto’s Annex
Our clients lead busy lives in downtown Toronto. On the outside they are managing multiple demands, while quietly carrying stress, self-doubt, or emotional overwhelm beneath the surface. We meet you there, with care that’s compassionate, practical, and respectful.
