Hi, I am Genevieve Pasheek
a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) providing virtual therapy to teens and adults across Ontario. My work is grounded in the belief that people are not reducible to their worst moments, nor defined solely by what has happened to them. Much of my work has focused on supporting people who are healing from intimate partner violence, high-conflict relationships, and the long-term effects of relational trauma. Many of the clients I work with come into therapy feeling confused, overwhelmed, or unsure how they ended up in patterns that no longer feel aligned with who they want to be.
I aim to create a space that is grounded, real, and respectful — where we can explore difficult experiences without minimizing or pathologizing them.
Over the past 5 years, I have supported adults navigating...
- Intimate partner violence
- Controlling or emotionally abusive family dynamics
- Addiction and harm reduction
- Relationship accountability and behaviour change
- Anxiety, depression, and nervous system dysregulation
- Major life transitions
I work from a trauma-informed, harm-reduction, and client-led perspective. This means:
- We move at your pace
- Your coping strategies are understood in context
- Therapy is collaborative, not prescriptive
My Values
Values are more than words; they’re the compass for how I show up in the therapy room. Understanding my values can help you decide if we’re the right fit for each other.

Unconditional Worth
You’re not too much. You’re not an inconvenience. You don’t need to be perfect to be here.

Honest Connection
I’m not a blank slate. I show up as a real person, with humour, honesty, and deep respect for your story.

Radical Acceptance
We practice meeting reality as it is — not as we wish it were — so we can stop fighting the past and start moving forward with intention.

Agency
You are not a problem to be solved. You’re a person with choices. Therapy is a place to name what matters to you — and start living from it.

Forward Momentum
Trauma leaves marks, but it doesn’t get the last word. We focus on who you want to become, not just what happened to you.

Creative Integration
My work makes room for contradiction, creativity, and complexity. Messy, real, and deeply human healing is welcome here.
