Are you feeling stuck and unable to move forward? Are you struggling with anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, or unhealed trauma? Do you ever wonder how did you end up where you are and can’t seem to find a way out? You came to the right place. My name is Krystyna (Krys), and I am here to support you on your journey toward ultimate wellness and to help you attain mental and emotional healing. I approach counselling with a non-judgemental attitude, unconditional positive regard, respect, empathy, and understanding.

Specific populations that I love working with (and have undergone additional training to specialize in) include Indigenous Canadians, LGBTQIA2+ persons, trans-identified and gender diverse persons and their families (including chosen families), and clients with a history of trauma and/or substance use. I work with youth and adults (primarily 12-70 years old), couples, and families. In terms of treatment, my areas of specialty include ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, disordered eating, grief, trauma, and navigating gender and sexual identities.

***STILL OPEN FOR IN-PERSON GUELPH/MISSISSAUGA*** I believe that there is good in every person, and hope in every situation. I have helped hundreds of individuals, couples, and families heal, grow, and connect. As a relational therapist, I appreciate the impact that our relationships have on our well-being. I do not see clients as having something wrong with their minds that necessarily needs to be fixed. Rather, I see my clients as unique individuals, each with their own stories and perspectives, embedded in important relationships and contexts that impact them. I see strengths and I see hope, even when it feels like there is none.

I work in Gestalt, a relational and embodied modality of psychotherapy that draws on the present moment, the here and now, to support client experiences and relationships. Therapy is relational: each session is a new encounter. At the same time, therapy sessions are supported by the relationship between therapist and client. When we start working together, I learn about what aspects clients want to work on, and build a therapeutic alliance to support those goals. During sessions, I support my clients as they integrate, build, and maintain the relational experiences they find healing in.

No waitlist, accepting new clients in Milton, ON. I have experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and with a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and life transitions. My passion lies in working with BIPOC individuals facing cultural dissonance and intergenerational trauma. I am committed to creating a safe and non-judgmental space where my clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and gain insight into themselves and their lives.

Viktor Frankl said: "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." Therapy isn't about getting the right answer, it's about making choices that move you forward. Many aspects of life are out of our control. If we focus on our decisions, we'll find greater contentment. Little shifts make a big difference. In my office, laughter, cursing, crying or yelling are welcome. I have curious questions, off-the-wall metaphors, and shift gears as required.

Everyone’s story matters, and we all deserve a place to share it that is comfortable and non-judgmental. I believe that each person is an expert in their own life. As a therapist, it is my goal to bear witness to your story and help you navigate your current challenges, as well as deepen your knowledge, understanding, appreciation, and acceptance of yourself and others. I am a trauma-informed therapist who uses a client-centered approach, working with different modalities tailored to meet each client's unique needs.

At times, life can be difficult. We can be caught off guard when we are thrown that unexpected curveball. Many of us may feel stuck and think the rest of the world is passing us by. If you need to talk or get some things off your chest, I am here to listen and provide strategies that offer a sense of comfort and results. As a Psychotherapist and Social Worker, I currently provide psychotherapy to adolescents and adults while also offering highly supportive clinical supervision to graduate students and new practitioners.

Hi! I'm Natasha Sharma: Therapist, TEDx Speaker, and CEO of NKS Therapy. Do you feel sad, stressed out, irritable or angry? Do you feel unable to let go of things that happened in the past, or worry constantly about the future? Are you experiencing distress, anxiety or depressed mood? As we have seen with the COVID-19 pandemic, life can be challenging. And unpredictable We can't always control it but we can control how we experience & respond to it. At my clinic NKS Therapy we provide you the tools to identify your emotions & get control over them. We offer expert counselling therapy for individuals, couples/marriage, & families.

In-person and virtual sessions available. There isn't anything you can't talk about, feel embarrassed for or be ashamed of in our counselling sessions. I provide a unique non-judgmental safe space to discuss any aspect in your life, concern or struggle you may be having. I provide an eclectic combination of personal, life and professional experience, with a high level of diplomacy, sense of humor and a remarkable ability to establish a rapport and trusting relationships.

Life can bring with it successes and challenges; regardless of how we define it. Success allows for celebration while challenge allows for growth and opportunity to heal. We can experience a range of emotions including sadness, hurt, guilt, self-doubt, helplessness, hopelessness, anger, despair, anxiety, loneliness, and grief; which ultimately leave an impact on our well-being. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. YOU are enough and together we can heal. Therapy is exercise for our emotional well-being that kickstarts our journey of self-acceptance, autonomy, purpose in life, positive relations, and happiness.

I am a white, queer, cisgender man and settler. I value authenticity and strive to be collaborative, warm, playful, curious, and compassionate in my work with clients. I invite you to also bring any parts of yourself to our shared therapy space - the hurt, the hidden, the hopeful, and whoever else we may discover. My approach to care is rooted in intersectional, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed frameworks. Some specializations of mine include anxiety, depression, grief, perfectionism, relationship challenges, queer experiences, identity exploration, HIV/AIDS, and trauma. I work with children, youth, adults, and older adults.

Finding the right therapist can feel like a daunting task. Not only are you looking for a professional you can deeply trust, but also one you feel safe with, seen, heard, and validated by. My services are built on developing a strong therapeutic relationship within which the growth and relief you deserve can occur. Together, in a non-judgemental space, we can address topics & concerns ranging from emotional regulation, trauma & survivorship, infidelity, polyamory, attachment, ruptures of trust, grief, conflict & communication, sex & intimacy, sexuality & gender identity, racial & cultural identity, and self-criticism & blame.
