Ms Anastasia Taskov

Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

“You are the expert on your own life and I am simply here to help guide you in the direction that results in the happiest, most fulfilling version of yourself. Modalities I focus on include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT,) Solution-Focused therapy (SFBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and ACT Therapy.”

About Me

I believe you are the expert on your own life. My aim is to help you navigate challenges and uncover new strengths. We will explore practical strategies together, focusing on clear, actionable steps tailored to your unique journey. This collaborative approach is ideal for anyone seeking clarity and a supportive space to grow into their happiest, most fulfilling self.

Approach

Holding your perspective central, I help translate insights into small, doable steps that fit your daily life and values. In sessions — offered from Vaughan and online, in English — we move at a practical pace: short experiments, skill practice, and clear check-ins so progress is visible and adjustable. Between sessions you’ll try brief exercises or reflections that inform our next steps and, when helpful, involve caregivers or partners to support change. This way of working often suits people seeking steady, actionable momentum.
