My name is Samuele Bariani. I grew up in Italy but I have been living in Canada since 2013. I am a Psychotherapist (RP) with The College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) since 2018. I offer online and in person counselling.
In 2021, I realized a personal dream to become a professional counsellor in Italy where I am honoured to bring the knowledge and skills I accumulated in Canada to offer online counselling.
I am fluent in English and Italian and I can speak functional Spanish.
I completed my undergraduate degree in Philosophy at The University of Milan in Italy and hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Counselling from Tyndale University in Toronto, Canada.
My experience includes working with individuals, youth and families who have faced a variety of issues such mood concerns, symptoms of anxiety, emotional regulation, loneliness, relationships and family concerns, parenting, and spirituality.
Having worked as a retailer, social worker, communication officer, and freelance journalist, I have a diverse background.

My therapeutic approach
I am curious, compassionate, dedicated, insightful, intuitive and open-minded
Every session will provide a space for you to gain clarity, find healing, and draw closer to your authentic self to discover the direction you want your life to take.
In my own life experience, I have learned two fundamental things that support my work.
First, I believe in the healing power of an authentic human connection. Second, through my travels and life transition from Italy to Canada, I learned that at the core of any transition is a quest to focus our attention on our life stories and see ourselves as the active protagonists of these stories.
I believe we are not called to this journey alone and there are times in our lives when we may need to reach out for help.
I have a deep specific interest in supporting people who deal with the challenges of being a foreigner, immigrant or newcomer
My experience includes working with individuals, youth and families who faced a variety of different issues such a sadness, worries, emotional regulation, loneliness, relationships and family concerns, parenting, and spirituality.
Being Italian and having lived abroad for over 10 years has given me the opportunity to understand the challenges of becoming immersed in a new culture.
Therefore, I have a deep specific interest in supporting people who deal with the challenges of being a foreigner, immigrant or newcomer.
I work from a client centered, anti-oppressive and trauma informed perspective. Modalities I use in practice are Gottman Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, EFT and Attachment Theory.
