Together, we can build your confidence and create a life that feels true to you.

Yohanna Weldu Beraki is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and a member of the Ontario Society of Registered Psychotherapists.

As a first-generation Eritrean Canadian, Yohanna’s lived experiences as a Black woman and daughter of immigrants deeply inform her commitment to offering culturally responsive and affirming care—especially for Black women and other racialized individuals. Before beginning her work as a psychotherapist, she supported neurodiverse children, teens, and adults through her work as an instructor therapist providing ABA therapy.

Therapeutic Approach 

Yohanna’s approach is relational and client-centred, with the belief that healing is not one-size-fits-all. She integrates a range of therapeutic modalities, including:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Narrative Therapy 
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) 
• Compassion-based therapy 
• Body-based approaches
• Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)
• Attachment-informed care

This integrative lens allows her to meet clients where they are and support deeper emotional healing.

Specialties

Yohanna works with clients navigating:

• Anxiety and depression
• Relationship challenges 
• Life transitions
• Grief and loss
• Trauma and self-esteem 
• Burnout 

She is especially passionate about community healing and creates safe, affirming spaces where clients feel seen, heard, and supported as they explore identity, reconnect with themselves, and move toward emotional wellness.
