Meet Usha Ramsaran, Registered Psychotherapist, B.Sc.Mid., M.A.C.P.

I provide trauma-based, holistic care and my work is grounded in my own lived experiences of cultivating mindfulness and somatic-based practices.

I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Yorkville University. I have studied Eye Movement and Reprocessing Desensitization (EMDR) and Advanced EMDR 2.0. I have completed professional training in Compassionate Inquiry. I also specialize in Perinatal EMDR, Maternal Mental Health and Advanced Perinatal Psychotherapy.

I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Midwifery from Ryerson University and worked as a Registered Midwife. For 11 years I provided primary care in and out of hospital in urban, rural, and remote settings in Ontario and Nunavut. 

I have been passionate about supporting people on a healing journey journey since 1998. I practiced Massage, Zen Shiatsu, Reflexology and Reiki and have worked as Doula and a Midwifery Assistant.

I am a Canadian born in Trinidad and Tobago, of mixed ancestry. I hold a multicultural perspective on issues of immigration, discrimination, and racism. I am interested in the intersection of identity and culture and its impact on mental health.

My personal passions include, yoga, mediation and dance.

Thank you for your trust and I look forward to working with you!
