Caroline D Souza, RP(Q)

Caroline D Souza is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). She works with children, teens, and adults, providing support for mood disorders, anxiety, relationship challenges, perinatal and reproductive mental health, immigration and acculturation stress, oncology and caregiving experiences, school stress, parenting challenges, and the impact of neurodiversity on daily life and relationships.

Caroline’s approach is integrative and client-centered, drawing from Person-Centered Therapy (PCT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Expressive Arts Therapy (EXAT), Play Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and attachment-informed approaches. She also incorporates mindfulness and reflective practices to help clients develop self-awareness, resilience, and coping skills.

As an immigrant woman who has personally navigated the newcomer experience, Caroline brings both professional expertise and lived experience to her work. She is passionate about creating a therapeutic space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued, and where their stories are fully honored. Caroline believes therapy is not about quick fixes but about fostering growth at a pace that feels safe and authentic for each individual.
