Serena Boyaci
M.C., Registered Psychologist
I am a Registered Psychologist with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. I am passionate about fostering a safe therapeutic space and meeting clients where they are at. I believe that each client is the expert of their own lives, which is why I like to focus on each client’s inner strengths to collaboratively create meaningful change. My goal is to provide you with a secure base and assist you along your therapeutic journey with a compassionate, culturally competent, and nonjudgmental approach.
I primarily utilize an integrative, person-centred, and humanistic therapeutic approach, taking into consideration each client’s needs and preferences because I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. My integrative approach combines elements from various evidence-based modalities, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills. Additionally, I have completed both basic and advanced training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which I use in working with trauma and a variety of other areas. In my work with couples, I integrate principles from the Gottman method, having completed level 1 and 2 training.
I have experience working with individuals experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, emotion dysregulation, and attachment-related challenges. I am passionate about supporting individuals and couples on their journey toward healing and growth. Whether you are navigating challenges, pursuing personal growth, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental space customized to meet your individual needs.
I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you on this journey!
