Founded by Shaista Ahmaddi, Lumina Therapy and Counselling Services was developed to provide high quality online therapy for anxiety, trauma, and burnout for adults across Ontario.
Lumina Therapy began with a recognition that therapy can often feel impersonal and ineffective. At our practice, we believe that everyone deserves a space where their story is honoured, their struggles are understood, and their growth is supported in ways that feel real and lasting.
Because the past doesn’t simply live behind us, it often echoes in the present. As a result, family histories, cultural demands, and inherited cycles can shape how we see ourselves and our worth. Together, we work to untangle these threads, acknowledge what has been passed down, and intentionally create space for resilience, empowerment, and growth.
Compassionate, online mental health therapy for adults in Ontario, with a focus on anxiety, trauma, and burnout.
Our approach is direct, authentic, and collaborative. Together, we walk alongside you as partners in healing, self-discovery, and growth. At its core, therapy with us is about finding clarity, reclaiming your voice, and building a life that aligns with your truth.

Adults/teens in Ontario who are looking for strategies to overcome anxiety, family challenges, trauma, relationship issues, grief, separation and divorce, self-esteem and self-confidence, communication challenges, social anxiety, people pleasing…. etc.
Your first session is an opportunity for you to meet with your therapist, discuss your concerns and ask any questions you might have about the counselling process.
Each session is a space for you to show up as you are. We’ll talk about what’s on your mind, explore positive and negative patterns that may be emerging in your life, and work together toward clarity and growth. There’s no script or judgment, just an open, supportive conversation.
The length of therapy varies depending on individual needs. Some clients might achieve their goals in a few months while others might continue for longer. Your therapist will work with you to determine the appropriate duration based on your progress and goals.
Adult therapy sessions (50 minutes): $140 per session.
We believe therapy is an investment in yourself—your well-being, growth, and healing. Payment is due at the time of each session, and receipts are provided for insurance or reimbursement purposes if applicable
Student Therapy Sessions (50 minutes): $90 per session
We believe mental health care should be accessible to everyone, especially students navigating the demands of academic life. To support those currently enrolled in post-secondary studies, we offer student therapy sessions at a reduced rate of $90 per 50-minute session. Available to students currently enrolled in college, university, or other recognized academic programs.
We understand that life can be unpredictable and sometimes plans change. If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, we kindly ask for at least 48 hours’ notice. This allows us to offer the time to someone else who may be waiting for support.
Cancellations made with less than 48 hours’ notice may be charged the full session fee. That said, we recognize that unexpected situations happen, and we’re always open to discussing individual circumstances with care and understanding.
