Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
CAROLINA GAMA, M.A.
Hi, I'm Carolina (She/Her),
I provide online and in-person psychotherapy services to adults facing various personal challenges. My own life experiences have shown me the transformative power of human connections and personal growth. It is my passion for building personal connections and supporting others on their paths to growth that led me to become a psychotherapist. I believe every individual has the potential to achieve a fulfilling and meaningful life. My ultimate goal is to create a healing and empowering therapeutic environment in which strong therapeutic bonds are created to nurture personal growth and well-being.
I am especially passionate about working with neurodivergent clients. Having been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, my personal experience is an additional asset to my professional expertise.
I hold a Master's Degree in Counselling and Psychology from Yorkville University. I am a Qualifying Member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO).
I work with adults (18+) presenting concerns related to:
Life Transitions
Menopause
Interpersonal Issues
Anxiety and Depression
LGBTQQIP2SA+ Concerns
ADHD/ASD/Neurodivergence
Stress & Worry
Grief and Loss
Complex Trauma
Approach
My therapy approach centers on unconditional acceptance within a Rogerian client-centred framework, prioritizing trust and collaboration. I integrate social justice, community-building, and compassion principles, fostering a safe space for exploration. Through empathy, we navigate your challenges, strengths, and goals, promoting personal growth and empowerment. I utilize an integrative modality drawing from various psychotherapeutic techniques like internal family systems and emotion-focused therapy and occasionally CBT.
"We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding, true empathy. Yet listening, of this very special kind, is one of the most potent forces for change that I know."
