Miriam Ismail is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who works with teens, young adults, and adults navigating stress, uncertainty, and life transitions. She has a particular interest in supporting teens as they move through relationship challenges, academic pressures, and the emotional ups and downs that often come with school and growing independence.

 

Miriam also supports post-secondary students and adults experiencing burnout, grief and loss, and major life changes, including times when someone feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what comes next. She offers a warm, non-judgmental space where people can slow down, make sense of what they’re going through, and begin to feel more grounded and clear.

 

She holds a double major undergraduate degree in Psychology and Health Sciences, with a minor in Disability Studies, which shapes her inclusive, thoughtful, and person-centred approach. Her work is grounded in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and is goal-oriented and collaborative, helping people build practical tools while feeling supported and understood.

 

Miriam believes therapy should feel approachable, respectful, and empowering. She works alongside each person to help them move through change with greater confidence, resilience, and direction.
