our therapist
Holy-Abel N'lobetcho
Hello, I’m Holy-Abel N’lobetcho, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I provide therapy for adolescents and adults, addressing issues relating to anxiety, depression, stress, immigration, trauma, emotional dysregulation, cultural identity, and life transitions.
As someone who immigrated from West Africa to Canada as a child and experienced the reality of adapting to a new culture, I understand the sentiment of feeling caught between two worlds. This perspective shapes my commitment to providing therapeutic support that is empathetic, culturally aware, and grounded in real human connection.
My approach is collaborative and integrative, primarily utilizing person-centered humanistic, CBT, and DBT-based therapies. I also adapt to each client’s unique needs and pace in a space where issues are explored collaboratively and new strategies are built step by step.
Outside of my work, I truly enjoy music, drumming, storytelling, sports, traveling, discovering new cultures, and meeting new people.
Holy provides services in English, French, and Ewe.
