Meet Adriana Karina

As a person of colour and immigrant from Venezuela, I bring a grounded, cross-cultural lens to therapy that honours complexity, identity, and resilience. I speak English and Spanish fluently and am passionate about making therapy more accessible, inclusive, and affirming for those navigating multiple worlds.

I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.  My work is rooted in evidence-based and humanistic approaches that emphasize each person’s inherent worth and capacity for personal growth, self-awareness, and healing.

I also support individuals applying for psilocybin-assisted therapy through Health Canada's Special Access Program and offer education, preparation, and integration support grounded in safety, intention, and ethical practice.

When I’m not working with clients, I love spending time with my life partner, my son, my dog and my family and friends. I find joy in trail running, hiking, rock climbing, practising yoga, dancing, and playing music both at home and at local gatherings.

Whether you find yourself in crisis, in search of new tools, or ready to reconnect with your inner compass, I strive to hold space with warmth, curiosity, and cultural humility.

Reflections from the Therapy Room

These writings explore themes that often emerge in therapy, from the invisible roots of emotional pain to the transformative potential of altered states and presence. They are offered as invitations to reflect, question, and connect more deeply with yourself.
