Carolyn Tong

Carolyn Tong is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) committed to providing trauma-informed psychotherapy through a culturally responsive and evidence-based approach. She believes that well-being is multidimensional and deeply influenced by both cultural and individual experiences. As a result, Carolyn prioritizes diversity, equity, and inclusion in her practice, creating a space where clients feel seen, valued, and empowered in their unique identities and strengths. 

Before becoming a therapist, Carolyn built a diverse career in community development, public health, and community-based mental health. She has also spent many years specializing in workplace psychological health, safety, and wellness. Her experience across a variety of settings, including education, social services, and paramedic services, has given her a strong understanding of the workplace stressors and exposures often experienced by educators, frontline care providers, first responders, and their family members. 

Carolyn takes a highly collaborative approach to therapy, working alongside clients to ensure that treatment goals and the pace of sessions align with their values, beliefs, strengths, and needs. She primarily works with adults seeking support with anxiety, depression, grief, guilt, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, workplace stress and burnout, and life transitions.
