Our team
Two regulated clinicians offering counselling virtually across Ontario and in person in Mississauga. Both are currently accepting new clients.
Julia Sivarajah, MA, RP
Registered Psychotherapist · MA, RP · Founder
Julia is a Registered Psychotherapist in Ontario with a background in psychology and over twelve years of experience supporting clients across community, hospital, residential, school, private practice, and virtual settings. She has also recently been teaching courses related to psychology, social work, and mental health at the postsecondary level.
Her work is client-centred and strengths-based, integrating CBT, informed DBT, ERP, mindfulness, somatic tools, and solution-focused techniques to match clients' needs and therapy goals. Julia also incorporates cultural identity, values, and lived experiences into the therapeutic process, recognizing how cultural frameworks shape emotional expression, family dynamics, and the meaning clients make of their challenges.
Julia cares deeply about helping people feel understood and supported. Compassion, kindness, and empathy guide her work. She is the founder of Take Care Psychotherapy and the author of two children's mental health storybooks.
Miriam Blond, MSW, RSW
Registered Social Worker · MSW, RSW
Miriam brings over twenty years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and caregivers. She works with anxiety, mood concerns, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, life transitions, and chronic pain and health-related stress.
She has particular experience supporting adolescents and young adults, parents and caregivers, and people navigating chronic pain or illness. As a queer-identified therapist, Miriam holds a passion for supporting LGBTQIA+ clients and offers an affirming, inclusive space.
Her approach is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Drawing from CBT, DBT, ACT, and emotion-focused approaches, she helps clients make sense of what they are experiencing, develop practical ways of coping, and find ways of moving forward that feel meaningful to them.
