In my experience, and according to research, the biggest factor in how well therapy works is the client-therapist relationship. That’s one reason you can expect me to be genuine, empathetic, positive, and affirming. Also, I don’t have a “one size fits all” approach to therapy. Instead, I will work with you to custom-fit a therapy experience based on your unique needs and expressed concerns.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Marriage and Family Therapist and Co-Founder of Relationship Matters Therapy Centre. The way I work with clients is very person-centred, and collaborative.
I recognize how we do not live in isolation. We all live in the context of much larger systems and multiple relationships that inevitably have an impact on how we experience the world.
I like to keep things fair, down-to-earth, respectful, and equitable while creating an anti-oppressive space with clients to talk about the things that really matter to you

I work on an underlying foundation of trust, honesty and compassion, and provide a supportive environment that facilitates growth and healing. I practice through a lens of lived experience with trauma and mental illness. I understand how dark and frightening the difficult times can be, but I also know that it is possible to emerge a stronger, more resilient person.

Mrs. Leila Coulibaly
Mrs. Leila Coulibaly
I provide Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for adults and adolescents experiencing symptoms due to traumatic, distressful events in childhood and/or adulthood. Feeling overwhelmed or stuck prevents you from living in the present moment. EMDR, as a comprehensive therapy, can help unlock traumatic memories trapped in the brain. Symptoms such as panic attacks, phobias, flashbacks, depression, and anxiety can affect our level of functionality, and the way we relate to ourselves and others in daily life, work, home, and school.
Take the next step to your wellness! I look forward to hearing from you!
