Hey there - it’s me, out from under the hazy middle days before New Years 🙋🏻‍♀️. Here are some moments from the last few weeks. During the holidays I’ve been (imperfectly) taking care of myself by keeping things simple and paying attention to my body. I’m making fewer plans, letting my home be imperfect when taken over by waves of loved ones, and noticing when I slip into managing other people instead of checking in with myself. I’m choosing slower mornings, earlier, quieter nights, and saying yes to what feels within my energy levels. It’s the very best gift to practice offering myself✨



Hope the next few days are good to you 🤍

When I started out as a therapist over 10 years ago, I felt deeply supported by my consultation groups and mentors. Those spaces expanded my confidence and capacity in ways no textbook could.

That’s why I’ve created Becoming: A Supervision Group for Experiential Practice - a small, supportive group for therapists working with experiential, relational, and trauma-focused approaches like AEDP, IFS, and somatic work (no previous experience required!).

Over five monthly sessions this winter, we’ll explore clinical themes like shame, defenses, somatic overwhelm, and rupture-repair. I’ll share session tapes from my own practice, and there’ll be space for case consultation and reflection on therapeutic presence.

This group is for therapists and student therapists who want to feel more confident, attuned, and grounded in their work, while also joining a community of colleagues who are equally committed to deepening their practice.

Get the early bird price by signing up before January 15! Payment plans available. Includes documentation for 10 supervision hours (CRPO or OCSWSSW).

This year, we stretched in the most meaningful of ways. We celebrated may personal and collective milestones, welcomed new therapists-in-training and clinicians of the team, expanded our spaces for healing, and showed up for our community, inside and outside the therapy room.

Behind the numbers were nervous systems learning to feel safer, therapists growing their capacity to witness, and clients taking risks toward connection.

Thank you for trusting us.

Here’s to more belonging, more depth, and more collective healing in the year ahead.

With love,
Amanda + The ANT Gang ✨

There’s nothing, and I mean NOTHING more exposing than Wrapped highlights 🤣

What’s your most telling highlight?

Done therapy before? Shopped around for the right fit but it never quite clicked? We’ve heard it all before. That’s why we developed a matching process to help ensure we give you the best shot at the “just right” feeling with your therapist.

Algorithm, thanks for doing your part✨

Dearest community,

We can finally share the big news (now that all the official documents are signed)! As of Winter 2026, ✨ANT✨ is expanding and opening our very own full-time clinic in Vaughan! *Picks jaw up from floor*. You heard that right - an actual space that’s ours, all the time, with our name on the door. I still can’t fully believe I get to say that.

This has been a long-held dream of mine. For years I’ve imagined a space built specifically for the way we work: thoughtful, warm, grounded, and intentionally designed for nervous system calm. And right now we’re in the “nesting” phase, which is a very fancy way of saying we’re painting over some aggressively tangerine-orange walls so the place can feel a little more therapy and a little less 2004 basement rec room🙃😂. But it’s truly already starting to feel like home.

Putting this out into the world is equal parts thrilling and terrifying. It’s vulnerable to say I’ve wanted this for so long and that it’s actually happening. There’s something about speaking it publicly that feels like planting a stake in the ground and saying, “Okay… this is real now.”

But I wanted to share it with you because you’ve all been such a meaningful part of this journey. So many of you have grown with us, trusted us, and made this community feel like something worth building on. The heart of our work has always been relational, attachment-focused, experiential, human. And this new space is being created with all of that in mind.
More updates soon… and probably more jokes about the paint situation. For now, thank you sincerely for being here. Your support is the reason this next chapter is even possible 🤍

I’ve practiced AEDP for years now, and I still find myself grateful for this model, and captivated by its true capacity to support tender growth. It’s one of the few approaches where I consistently see people feel different in session, and have that change be transported to their outer lives and important relationships.

Part of why I love being an AEDP practitioner (and self-proclaimed emotions doula) so much is because I’ve experienced it myself as a client. I know what it’s like to be on the other side of the chair, learning how to slow down, feel safe enough to notice what’s really there, and let something shift. That experience changed the way I show up as a therapist. Your AEDP therapist is relational, present, and honours the parts of us that have been protecting us for a long time. Instead of fighting those parts, we get curious with them. We work at a pace that feels safe. And slowly, people start to reconnect with themselves in a way that feels real and earned, instead of from a place of forcing and an urgency to change.

At our clinic, our whole team strives for this kind of work: attachment-focused, relational, and experiential. We show up with people in a way that feels steady, warm, and attuned, because we believe our community deserves therapy that truly supports them. This is the heart of how we practice, and why this work means so much.

Over the years in the clinic, I’ve noticed a pattern in some of the people I work with. They want closeness, but the moment someone gets emotionally near, their body tenses. They might reach out one day and pull away the next, not because they don’t care, but because it suddenly feels overwhelming or unsafe.

I’ve seen how much shame this can carry. People often feel like they’re confusing or difficult, like something is “wrong” with them. What I’ve learned is that these reactions usually come from a nervous system that has learned to protect itself when safety felt inconsistent.

In therapy, we work on noticing these patterns in real time, slowing down automatic reactions, and building experiences of connection that actually feel safe. Over time, people start to realize they can be close without feeling like they’ll lose themselves.
It’s not easy work, but it’s powerful to see someone discover that they can experience connection without fear taking over.
