Compassionate, straightforward therapy grounded in real connection
Virtual Therapy serving all of Ontario.

I’m Sue Hrischenko, a Registered Psychotherapist offering individual therapy for adults. My approach is warm, collaborative, and straightforward, with a focus on meaningful change in everyday life.
If you ever feel like you’re banging your head against a wall, you are not alone. You try to do things differently, but somehow end up in the same arguments, the same anxious loops, or the same frustrating situations.
Sometimes, the coping strategies that once helped us get by start causing more problems than they solve.
Therapy can help you figure out what’s going on, why the same patterns keep showing up, and what you can do differently. No magic answers — just a chance to get curious, get unstuck, and make some changes.
Maybe you’re feeling anxious, stuck in familiar patterns, overwhelmed by life, or finding that things you thought were long resolved are coming back up.
Perhaps you’ve spent a long time being the capable one, holding everything together, while ignoring your needs.
Whatever brings you to therapy, I want to create a space for you where you can understand what is going on without feeling like you need to have all the answers.
Together, we can explore what’s contributing to your difficulties, build a better understanding of yourself, and identify practical ways to move forward.
What matters is understanding your experiences, identifying what may be keeping you stuck, and finding an approach that fits your needs. My role is to create the space for that to happen. My work draws on trauma-informed and evidence-based approaches, including EMDR. I bring curiosity, compassion, and practical tools to our sessions, while respecting your pace and priorities. My background in couple and family therapy also informs how I understand the impact of family experiences, relationships, and learned patterns on our well-being.
Anxiety & overthinking
When your brain won't switch off.
Trauma & the past
When old experiences still affect the present.
Stress & burnout
When you’re running on empty.
Relationships & boundaries
When the same patterns keep showing up.
Life changes & loss
When life looks different than expected.
Self-worth & self-criticism
When your inner critic works overtime.
When life feels overwhelming, therapy offers a space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, strengthen your coping skills, and help you move toward the life you want — with more calm, clarity, and confidence.
EMDR is a gentle, evidence-based approach that helps people process trauma, anxiety, and other distressing experiences that continue to affect their lives.
EMDR can be powerful for releasing emotional blocks, healing old wounds, and restoring a sense of balance and control.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re used to managing things on your own. You don’t need to know exactly what you need or where to begin.
A free consultation gives us an opportunity to connect, discuss what brings you to therapy, and consider whether working together feels like a good fit.
When you’re ready, we can start there.
