What guides us

The method follows you, not the other way around

At InnerSight Psychotherapy in Vaughan, we do not fit you to a single model of therapy. We start with you, what you are facing, what you have already tried, and how you want to feel instead, then shape the work around those goals.

Our therapists are trained across 18 modalities and often blend a few in the same course of therapy. To see the specific methods we use, our therapy approaches page breaks each one down. For what one-to-one sessions are like, see individual therapy.

What this means for you

  • ✓No diagnosis to earn and no label to carry.
  • ✓Tools and insight you keep long after therapy ends.
  • ✓You set the pace, and you can change therapist or approach anytime.
  • ✓A real person who listens, not a script to follow.

How we hire

How we choose our therapists

Two questions come up more than any others: is this person actually qualified, and will they understand me? Jaclyn explains how therapists are selected for the team, and why character and a commitment to continued learning sit alongside education and experience.

Our principles

Four principles behind every session

Our therapists use many different techniques, but every approach we take rests on the same four ideas.

01

Goal-driven, not technique-driven

We start with what you want to change, then choose the tools to get there. Our therapists draw on many methods, from CBT and DBT to Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Gestalt, narrative and inner-child work, but the approach always follows your goals, never the reverse.

02

Non-pathologizing

We do not treat your challenges as disorders or reduce you to a label. We see the patterns you have built over time, often for good reason, and we help you understand them and reshape the ones that no longer serve you.

03

Experiential, not only analytical

Lasting change happens in the felt sense, not just in talking about a problem. We work with what you actually feel in the moment, which is usually where the root of it lives and where real shifts begin.

04

Constructivist

Each of us quietly builds the reality we live in, and there is no single correct version of it. Our job is not to overwrite your world but to help you evolve it, with respect for where you are and at a pace that feels right.

How it works

Getting started is simple

You do not need to know what kind of therapy you want. That is our job.

01

Start with a free consult

Book a free 20-minute call by phone or video. Tell us what is going on and what you would like to feel different. No pressure, no commitment.

02

We match you to a therapist and approach

Based on your goals, we suggest a Registered Psychotherapist whose style fits, and the approach most likely to help. You never have to pick a method yourself.

03

We work together, and adapt

Therapy is collaborative. Your therapist blends approaches and adjusts as you grow, and if the fit is not quite right, switching is easy and your progress carries over.

The methods we use

Many evidence-based approaches, matched to you

The right method depends on you. These are the approaches our therapists reach for most. Explore any that speak to you, or let us match you in a free consultation.

Who you'll work with

Led by CRPO-registered psychotherapists in Vaughan, Woodbridge & Barrie

Svetlana Antonyshyn, RP · Founder (CRPO #001652)

InnerSight was founded by Svetlana Antonyshyn on a simple belief: therapy should adapt to the person, not the other way around. That belief still shapes how our whole team works, and the four principles on this page grew directly out of it.

Today, InnerSight is a team of 24+ therapists, with every psychotherapist registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO), .

What we help with

Support for what you're carrying

Our approach adapts to a wide range of concerns. These are some of the things people most often work through with us.

Before you book

Don't take our word for it. Check.

Anyone can say they are good at this. Here is what you can verify about us in about two minutes, without speaking to a single person.

Every psychotherapist here is registered with the CRPO. We publish each registration number on their profile. Look any of us up by name in Ontario's public register.

Regulated, not self-declared

"Psychotherapist" is a protected title in Ontario. Our team are Registered Psychotherapists, accountable to a College with a complaints process that has nothing to do with us.

See every therapist's registration →

Supervised every month

Our therapists meet for clinical supervision every month. It is how the work stays accountable to someone other than the person doing it.

We show our sources

Where we describe what therapy can do for anxiety, ADHD or trauma, we name the source and link it: Statistics Canada, CAMH, NICE, peer-reviewed trials.

Nothing locks you in

No referral needed. No contract, no package to buy. Fees are published up front, $180 for a 55-minute session. If the fit is wrong, say so and we will move you to someone else without asking why.

What is InnerSight's approach to therapy?
We tailor therapy to you rather than fitting you to one method. Our work is evidence-based, experiential and non-pathologizing, guided by four principles: goal-driven, non-pathologizing, experiential rather than only analytical, and constructivist. Your therapist draws on the approaches most likely to help you.
Do you diagnose or label clients?
No. Registered Psychotherapists do not diagnose, and we work non-pathologically by design. Rather than reducing you to a label, we help you understand the patterns you have learned over time and reshape the ones that no longer serve you.
How do you decide which type of therapy to use?
It is goal-driven. In a free consultation your therapist learns what you want to change and recommends an approach and a therapist that fit. Most therapists blend methods and adjust as you go, so you never have to choose a modality yourself.
Is your therapy evidence-based?
Yes. Our team works across 18 evidence-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, Internal Family Systems, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy and EMDR, matched to your needs.
Do you offer therapy online or only in person?
Both. We offer secure video sessions anywhere in Ontario, plus in-person appointments in Woodbridge, Vaughan and Barrie. Many clients find online sessions just as helpful, and you can switch between online and in-person at any time.
How do I get started?
Book a free 20-minute consultation by phone or video. There is no referral and no commitment to continue. We will match you with a Registered Psychotherapist who fits what you are working through. Sessions are $180 for individuals, and reduced-fee sessions at $125 individual and $175 couples and family are available with select supervised therapists in training.
