Marta Suchta

Hello, thank you for visiting my profile. Dismantling stigma around mental health and promoting a culture of help seeking is very important to me. I work with relationship issues, work-related stress, loss, trauma, addiction, and anxiety. I have helped men, women and individuals of different ages, professions, diverse backgrounds and cultural groups with a wide range of difficulties and themes.

Our work together will help you feel more empowered, hopeful and in control when tackling life’s challenges and embracing change.

I recognize that seeking support or taking the step to speak to someone can be an intimidating process. I want to assure you that I will meet you where you are at; in a safe, kind, genuine, and non-judgmental space.

Momenta Clinic for Psychological Wellness

At our clinics, we embrace a compassionate, evidence-based therapeutic approach tailored to the unique needs of each individual, regardless of background or identity. We are committed to breaking down the barriers and stigma often associated with men seeking mental health treatment, offering a safe space for growth and healing. For us, part of creating a psychologically safe space for men is through providing a confidential and non-judgmental environment where every client feels valued and heard. Our diverse range of therapies, from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to mindfulness practices, is designed to empower our clients, helping them navigate life’s challenges with strength and resilience.

Note: In Ontario, we only recommend therapists who meet our minimum qualification standards, which include holding a Master’s degree and being registered with the CPO, OCSWSSW, CRPO, or CCPA.

Madison Maitz

I take a holistic, mind-body approach in my practice and work to develop an awareness of how our nervous system plays a key role in regulating our emotions and internal state. I integrate aspects of both talk and body-based interventions to best support healing.

I specialize in; anxiety, trauma, stress, burnout, relationship issues, athletic & sports performance, and emotional regulation.

I draw primarily from polyvagal-informed therapy to support emotional and nervous system regulation, helping clients build resilience and cultivate safety in their bodies. I integrate somatic practices to encourage deeper body awareness and facilitate healing, and utilize EMDR to process past trauma and rewire unhelpful patterns.

Kate Bonnell

It’s important to me that my clients feel like they walk away from counselling with something, whether that’s a new insight, a skill, or a different perspective on what is an issue for them. My approach is collaborative, direct, and fully guided by my clients.

I feel it’s important to acknowledge the hand you were dealt and consider upbringing, socioeconomic status, race, sexual orientation, and gender norms and how they play into your own experience.

I work in trauma, anxiety, depression, and I’m passionate about helping late discovered adults with ADHD and autism understand themselves better. Some therapeutic styles I employ include CBT, DBT, IFS (internal family systems), and narrative.

Online and in-person sessions available Saturday through Wednesday.
