About me

Sometimes life feels heavier than you expected.

You might find yourself lying awake at night replaying conversations, worrying about the future, or wondering if you’re doing enough, for your children, your family, or yourself. Anxiety can pull you into endless “what-ifs.” Parenting may feel more overwhelming than anyone prepared you for. Relationships that once felt secure may now leave you feeling drained, misunderstood, or unsure of your place.

You don’t have to navigate these moments alone.

I’m Reyhane Sheikh, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. I offer a warm, thoughtful space where you can slow down, feel heard, and begin to make sense of what you’re going through. 

I have daytime availability for new clients!

My Approach

Therapy with me is not about quick fixes or being told what to do.

It is a collaborative process where we gently explore what’s happening beneath the surface, your emotions, patterns, relationships, and the experiences that shaped them.

Together we can work toward:

• calming anxiety and constant overthinking
• understanding emotional patterns in relationships
• feeling more confident in your parenting
• navigating life transitions with greater clarity
• reconnecting with your sense of self

Our work moves at a pace that feels safe and respectful for you.

My Background

Before becoming a therapist, I spent 14 years working as a teacher, and I am also a mother of two. These experiences deeply shape the way I support families and young people.

I understand firsthand how challenging it can be to support children while also managing your own emotional world. I have seen how anxiety, stress, and life transitions affect not only individuals, but entire families.

This perspective allows me to support clients with both professional insight and real-life understanding.

Who I Work With

I support:

• Teens (14+) experiencing anxiety, stress, or emotional challenges
• Adults struggling with anxiety, overwhelm, or life transitions
• Parents feeling stretched between work, family, and emotional demands (Burnt out parents).

• Families navigating ADHD, autism, or parenting stress
• Individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds seeking culturally responsive therapy

Sessions are available online or in person in Toronto.

I offer therapy in English and Farsi.

My Therapeutic Style

My work integrates approaches such as:

• Attachment-based therapy
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Emotion-focused therapy
• Internal Family Systems (IFS)
• Psychodynamic and relational therapy
• Somatic and mindfulness-based approaches

Rather than using a “one-size-fits-all” model, I tailor therapy to your needs so the work feels meaningful and relevant to your life.

What Therapy Can Offer

Many clients begin therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start.

Over time, they often begin to notice:

• greater emotional clarity
• stronger boundaries in relationships
• increased confidence in parenting
• a deeper understanding of themselves
• more calm and stability in daily life

Change does not happen overnight, but with support, it becomes possible.

Getting Started

I offer a complimentary consultation so we can meet, talk about what you’re looking for, and see if working together feels like a good fit.

Reaching out for support can feel like a big step.
But you don’t have to carry everything on your own.

I would be honoured to walk alongside you in this process
