We spent some time getting to know Toni Rebic, and honestly, the draw here goes beyond just credentials. It’s actually the way Toni has carved out a space that feels both structured and human.

Her background is solid, but what stood out was her signature alignment program. Toni’s got these sequential exercises that make people feel like therapy is an active process.

In fact, a couple of clients compared the after-session feeling to leaving a really productive gym class (except for the emotional muscles). Communication-wise, we kept hearing about how she’s never in a rush and never talks over anyone.

Advice is tailored in a way that feels surprisingly personal. One regular even joked that sessions sometimes feel like catching up with a wise friend.

Sadly, the schedule fills up pretty quickly, and online slots go even faster, so planning is a must. But overall, Toni’s blend of expertise and empathy is what keeps bringing people here.

“Where do I begin! I started seeing Toni during one of the most difficult times of my life. Toni’s program quite literally changed my life. It helped me deepen my relationship with myself, overcome anxiety, and stop taking things so personally. I will admit that I was a bit skeptical at first, but I’m glad I stayed. Toni is extremely kind, funny, and personable and I feel so comfortable talking to her. The things she’s taught me have fundamentally changed the way I view myself and the world around me, for the better. I’m grateful to have this experience.”

“I’ve been seeing Toni for almost a year now and I have to say my experience with her has been out of this world. She’s helped through so much and has been guiding me through many challenges and I couldn’t ask for a better therapist. Truly the best. I’ve even recommended friends of mine because I truly believe her program and her sessions have worked wonders! 10/10 recommend everyone to have a Toni in their life, as a therapist, she is truly the very best. She’s attentive, patient, informative and really helps you see different perspectives and provides you with the tools required to become aligned with yourself and be the best version of yourself. She’s really helped me grow as a person and to become the person I want to be.”

Axel Jourgeaud at Positive Psychology stands out, especially for anyone trying to figure out work life or sort through career twists. We kept hearing from previous clients—and the consensus is he genuinely gets what those work-life headaches are about.

That’s probably because Axel’s not just trained as a psychologist. With a solid background in big-league HR and time spent at a government agency, he’s seasoned at navigating all the office dynamics and career anxiety most of us run into at some point.

Furthermore, Axel is methodical but relaxed—clear communication really is his thing, and complex stuff suddenly becomes way less complicated.

He also has this super in-depth intake process, which can sound intimidating, but we found it surprisingly comfortable and actually useful for setting clear goals.

As for therapy styles, Axel mixes solution-oriented strategies, positive psychology, and reconsolidation therapy (perfect for trauma) and always tunes it based on what actually fits.

The only sticking point is that Axel works strictly by appointment, so spontaneous booking isn’t happening.

Effective guidance

“I was fortunate enough to consult with Axel Jourgeaud for several sessions. He helped me a great deal. His approach is very effective, and he is a very empathetic and reassuring person. He provided me with many very relevant tools. I highly recommend him!”

Life-changing support

“I started therapy two years ago with Axel Jourgeaud, and I’ve recommended his clinic to several friends since. Axel helped me manage my anxiety (which had reached a peak at the beginning of therapy) and develop concrete tools to move forward in my life, both personally and professionally. I hesitated for a long time before starting therapy, and the first few sessions can be difficult, but it’s by far one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I highly recommend this clinic.”

Harbour Therapy ticks off a lot of boxes. Dr. Stolow’s experience is the real deal (Rutgers PhD, time at Douglas and the Jewish General, and a strong background in evidence-based therapies). Here, one session might lean more on CBT; another digs into mindful self-compassion.

We also love that there’s a lot of focus on building actual skills, not just talking through the rough patches. Plus, based on the feedback from people who’ve worked with Dr. Stolow, the recurring theme is how easy it feels to open up in his sessions.

This isn’t surprising given his focus on a safe, non-judgmental space, which seems baked right into the clinic culture.

Just a heads up, though; availability is pretty much locked between noon and 5 pm on weekdays. This means anyone with a hectic schedule might have a tough time squeezing in an appointment.

Overall, though, Harbour Therapy lives up to its positive reputation—calm, competent, and focused on real, sustainable progress.

Truly supportive

“I have only been to Dr. Morris a few times but he has been wonderful since the beginning. After having felt like my 3 previous psychologists had given up on me or invalidated my feelings, I felt as though Dr. Morris was someone who finally took me seriously and made it a priority to help me out. I would highly recommend him to anybody needing therapy, especially those who are on the verge of giving up. If you enjoy reading, he also gives great book suggestions that are extremely helpful. This is the first time I feel confident about a psychologist in the last 3 years of going to therapy.”

Dr. Arianna Yakirov’s clinic gives off the kind of comfort that makes even the most therapy-averse want to stick around. We kept hearing about her easygoing, genuinely supportive style—there’s nothing forced or awkward from the minute the conversation gets going.

We especially liked how Dr. Yakirov blends the best of psychological science with a holistic mindset, so every session is tailored. Plus, with 20 years of experience, there aren’t many issues she hasn’t helped someone tackle.

Her therapy menu covers individual, couples, and even online sessions, plus CBT, ACT, and solution-focused approaches, so nobody’s boxed in. The crowd she draws is just as varied, especially with her focus on LGBTQ+ support, gender identity, and all the nuances in between.

If there’s a downside, it’s the popularity; right now, she’s at capacity and not taking new clients, which says a lot but is a bit of a letdown for anyone hoping to get in soon.

Empowering guidance

“I am incredibly grateful for finding Dr. Yakirov. She is truly understanding, patient, and deeply caring. From the very beginning, she created a safe and peaceful space where I felt heard and supported. Through her compassion, insight, and guidance, she has helped me with personal growth and navigating life experiences. She has truly changed my life and has helped me see the beauty in everything. I always feel respected and supported, and it’s clear that she genuinely cares about her patients and their well-being. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering therapy, especially if they are feeling hesitant or unsure about starting.”

Insightful support

“Dr. Yakirov did a great job of simply just giving me a second opinion to a couple of things I was dealing with in my life at a pivotal point. Was really helpful to hear from a 3rd party and understand her perspective on some things. Great work!”

Lesly Prudent at Blake Psychology West-Island stands out for the kind of thoughtful, steady support that’s tough to find. As soon as we started asking around, people were quick to mention Lesly’s compassion and knack for making tough conversations feel less daunting.

She also brings a pretty deep background from both France and Quebec, so it’s not surprising she’s tuned in to the realities of serious illness, caregiver burnout, and especially the grief that comes along for the ride.

She’s also just as ready to help with anxiety or tricky life transitions. Lesly also got a very practical, results-oriented style, which fits since CBT, exposure, and response prevention are her main approaches.

Though we’ve learned that she also mixes this with a more humanistic, client-led style, making things feel less personal rather than clinical.

We also commend her for being upfront with practical details—cost, next steps, and what to expect—so there’s no second-guessing. Scheduling is the one hang-up: she’s so in demand that there’s usually a waitlist.

The good thing is that several people mentioned it actually moves faster than expected.

Responsive staff

“All therapists are professional and kind. The staff communicates with you consistently and rapidly to find you a health professional. Well worth the price. Highly recommend !”
