A room that listens.

SaiMa is a contemplative psychotherapy practice in Toronto, offering individual, couples, and somatic therapy in a setting designed for presence.

Founder & Lead Therapist

Held by experience.

SaiMa is led by a Registered Psychotherapist with over a decade of clinical practice spanning hospital, community, and private settings. The work draws from relational psychodynamic, somatic experiencing, IFS-informed parts work, and mindfulness-based traditions.

The practice is intentionally small. Each client is met with the time, attention, and craft the work requires.

Philosophy

Therapy as craft.

Presence

The most consequential thing in the room is sustained, generous attention.

Pace

Healing moves at the pace of safety. We never override what the body knows.

Particularity

No two people are the same. The work is shaped to you, never the other way around.
