  Accepting New Clients

  Maryam Moazzami is a Toronto-based Associate Therapist (M.PSY, RP) who specializes in supporting women and couples through some of life's most emotionally complex and vulnerable transitions. Her practice centres on perinatal mental health — encompassing fertility challenges, pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and the profound identity shifts that accompany becoming a parent. Maryam understands that the path to parenthood is rarely linear. For clients navigating fertility struggles, miscarriage, or pregnancy loss, she offers a compassionate space to grieve, process, and find footing amid uncertainty. For those in the postpartum period, she helps untangle the overlapping threads of identity change, relational strain, physical recovery, and the emotional weight of new parenthood. Her work extends beyond the perinatal context to grief, trauma, and broader family transitions — recognizing that these experiences rarely arrive in isolation. Maryam also works with couples, helping partners stay connected and communicate effectively through the relational pressures that fertility and parenthood so often surface. Maryam's approach is warm, grounded, and unhurried. She draws on relational and trauma-informed frameworks to meet clients where they are, without judgment, and with genuine attentiveness to the emotional texture of each person's experience.

  Jeff Driscoll is a Toronto-based Associate Therapist (M.PSY, RP) whose practice is grounded in the belief that lasting change requires more than understanding — it requires felt, embodied experience. Drawing on psychodynamic, somatic, relational, and existential frameworks, Jeff works with individuals, adolescents, and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, attachment wounds, and emotional disconnection. Jeff has a particular interest in men's mental health and the unique ways men are socialized to suppress emotional experience. He creates a space where that can be examined honestly and without judgment. He also works with LGBTQ+ clients, bringing sensitivity to questions of identity, belonging, and relational complexity. Whether working with couples struggling to reconnect or individuals who feel stuck despite years of self-awareness, Jeff's approach is collaborative and attuned — oriented not just toward symptom relief, but toward a more genuine relationship with oneself and others.
