When you feel stuck, emotionally exhausted & like you've lost yourself
Virtual therapy for women & youth in Ontario navigating difficult relationships, trauma, burnout, anxiety, or the pressure of holding everything together.
Real conversations. No clinical vibes. Practical support to help you feel more grounded, more confident, and more like yourself again.
Maybe from the outside, things look fine. You’re showing up. Getting things done. Taking care of everyone else.
But inside, you’re emotionally exhausted. Over-thinking everything. Questioning yourself. Feeling overwhelmed and wondering who the hell you even are anymore.
Maybe you’re navigating a confusing relationship and asking yourself:
“Is it really that bad… or am I overreacting?”
When a relationship causes more pain than peace, it can slowly chip away at your confidence, self-worth, sense of reality, and ability to trust yourself.
Or maybe you’re carrying the weight of trauma, burnout, anxiety, guilt, or self-doubt that’s been weighing you down for far too long.
I understand how messy that can feel, both personally and professionally.
Therapy gives you a space that’s just for you. A place to slow things down, make sense of what’s happening, reconnect with yourself, and move forward with more clarity, confidence, and self-trust.
ABOUT ME
Hey, I’m Maryfrances.
Registered Social Worker, mom to a tween daughter, romance writer, nap lover, overthinking perfectionist in recovery, and the therapist behind Soulful Serenity Counselling.
My 15+ years in social work and my own lived experience with trauma have shaped how I show up with the women I work with.
With compassion, curiosity, and a deep understanding of how hard life can feel sometimes.
No clinical jargon.
No pressure to have it all figured out.
No fake positivity. (Because sometimes things really suck.)
Just honest conversations, practical support, and a space where you get to show up exactly as you are.
Swearing, snacks, and comfy clothes are always welcome.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO CARRY IT ALONE.
You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain why you’re exhausted, apologize for crying, or pretend you’re okay.
For one hour, you don’t have to take care of anyone else, hold everything together, or sit alone with the overthinking and spiralling.
You get to simply be you.
Because you deserve support that feels genuine, comfortable, and human.
