Unfortunately, Dr. Arianna Yakirov is not currently accepting new clients. 
Thank you for understanding that messages and texts, if not already in the practice, will not be answered.
"Therapy is a kind of secret sauce for moving toward your life goals with ease and energy, because therapy doesn't just address the symptoms of the emotional patterns that get in our way, it actually gets to the root cause."
- Dr. Arianna

With ongoing global uncertainty, you may be noticing many different emotions which feel distressing and overwhelming such as feeling anxious, scared or exhausted.
Maybe you're having difficulty focusing and getting things done, or feeling disconnected from and irritated by your partner and finding your intimacy slipping.
With all of this going on, it can be difficult to know how to move forward with clarity and a sense of purpose.
​

Therapy can make a huge difference. 

​I'm a registered clinical psychologist and a trained yoga teacher,
in practice for over 20 years. I'm a member of the Order of Psychologists of Quebec and the College of Psychologists of BC and provide online psychotherapy to clients in both provinces. 

I was thrilled to move to the vibrant city of Montreal two years ago for family. Before that, I lived on the spectacular West Coast for over 20 years. I'm a genuine East Coast-West Coast hybrid.
​
After being a therapist for over two decades, I still wake up every morning excited about what I do and passionate about facilitating the incredible, positive changes I see people make.


My approach is warm, heart-centered and holistic. I combine techniques from many kinds of holistic/psychological training and experience and customize them for you. I strive to ensure a safe space for everyone. In a safe, relaxed, and deeply supportive environment in which you can come to understand the emotional patterns and behavioural habits that are keeping you stuck. Working together can remove the blocks keeping you from getting what you want, so you can feel content and confident in your life and relationships.

​
​I have a lot of academic professional training, with degrees from Harvard, the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and Tufts University Medical School.
I'm a trauma-informed therapist and in my approach I draw from CBT, Mindfulness, Positive Psychology, Gottman Marital Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Imago Therapy and Buddhist Psychology.

I'm very comfortable working with gender fluidity and sexual identity issues and have extensive experience working with LGBTQ+ clients.


I have had great success helping clients with:
  • anxiety, depression and self-sabotage
  • insecurity, self-doubt and low self-esteem 
  • breaking through your self-limiting beliefs
  • understanding what triggers you in your relationships
  • dissolving emotional blocks to experience more authentic closeness in relationships
  • learning how conflict in your relationships can be a doorway to finding deeper intimacy with your partner​
