Stadnyk Therapy

Welcome!

It may be challenging to reach out for help and find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable. As a therapist with multiple cultural identities, I understand the importance of wanting to talk to someone with whom you can identify. I work from a place of non-judgment, compassion, and collaboration. With my clients, I explore what brings them to therapy and their goals, and tailor the treatment to their unique needs.

Currently accepting new clients

I believe therapy is a journey. In my role as a therapist, I offer my attention to my clients’ needs and calm presence as a resource for new experiences of connection, attunement, and acceptance.

About Me and My Practice

Education and Experience

I’m Myroslava Stadnyk (she/her) — a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) in good standing with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), located in the Annex neighbourhood of Toronto, Ontario. I offer in-person and online sessions. My academic background includes the completion of a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (with distinction) at Yorkville University, as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice and a post-graduate certificate in Public Relations, both from Toronto Metropolitan University.
With nearly a decade of experience providing counselling and direct support to youth and adults with various needs and concerns in the social services sector and training in private practice, I am committed to social justice and advocacy work within counselling settings. My passion lies in helping people heal, discover themselves, and overcome adversity.
Specialization and Approach

I work with adults struggling with anxiety, panic, stress, depression, low motivation, obsessive thoughts or burn-out, self-esteem issues, difficulties with boundary setting and assertiveness, trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), 2SLGBTQIA+ related issues, and intimate partner violence. I can also help if you are undergoing transitions in school, career, and future planning, as well as social, relationship and family conflict.
I provide an integrative approach to therapy, incorporating various evidence-based therapeutic modalities to assist with my clients’ specific needs, including Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Based Brief Therapy (SFBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness-based, and Sensorimotor interventions.
As a queer and immigrant woman, my therapeutic approach is rooted in intersectional feminist values. It is collaborative, focusing on the client-therapist relationship, which enables clients to explore their stories – past, present, and future. Taking an anti-oppressive and strength-based stance, I view clients as experts in their own lives. I meet them wherever they are on their path to healing and growth.
