As we work through our emo.onal pain and rumina.ng thoughts, I understand how it can feel incredibly isola.ng and overwhelming, especially if we become disconnected from ourselves in the process. I believe that people o=en turn to therapy feeling “stuck,” and while it may feel as though our lives have hit a pause bu@on, the world around us con.nues to move forward. As such, whether you are seeking to improve emo.onal regula.on, strengthen interpersonal rela.onships, navigate unexpected life transi.ons, or if you simply find yourself without a clear understanding of the underlying issue, my goal is to create a comfor.ng and meaningful therapeu.c experience for individuals from all walks of life. Beyond my profession, I have always naturally fostered connec.ons with others through empathy, compassion, and a sincere fascina.on with people’s experiences and narra.ves. As you walk me along your journey, I strive to facilitate a trus.ng, suppor.ve, and non-judgmental therapeu.c space. Here, you can freely share your internal ba@les, allevia.ng the weight of emo.onal overwhelm as we work together to unravel the root cause of the issue. Through a client-centered perspec.ve, I approach clients with openness, uncondi.onal posi.ve regard, and warmth. Incorpora.ng elements of cogni.ve behavioural techniques combined with mindfulness interven.ons, and solu.on-focused strategies, we can work towards a more fulfilling lifestyle. Together, we will collabora.vely develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your specific needs and goals to achieve your fullest poten.al. As a Registered Psychotherapist, my areas of focus include: Anxiety, Depression, Life Transi.ons and Adjustments, Interpersonal Issues, and Trauma I am truly thankful for the opportunity to provide a safe space for individuals to explore, reflect, and progress. If you are interested in connec.ng, I always provide a free 15-minute consulta.on to see if we would be a good fit.

I work with teens, adults, and couples struggling to cope with the stresses of life, the intricate process of addressing trauma, building essential coping skills, and fostering a sense of empowerment. I aim to provide a safe and nurturing space, where clients can openly explore their emotions, experiences, and struggles. Through evidence-based techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Bowenian Family therapy and more personalized strategies, such as the exploration of creative expressive outlets, I hope to help each person who has had traumatic events impact their lives to rewrite their narratives and reclaim their lives.

Whether you’re a teenager grappling with the complexities of adolescence or an adult carrying the weight of past experiences, I want to meet people where they are at. By integrating a range of therapeutic modalities, I assist clients in developing effective coping mechanisms, fostering resilience, and rediscovering a sense of control over their lives. With a focus on empowerment, I can help clients tap into their inner strengths and resources by working collaboratively with me. With a deep understanding of family systems and interconnections, they guide individuals, couples, and families towards profound insights and lasting healing. Drawing from the Bowenian approach, I can help clients uncover the intricate web of relationships that shape their lives. By exploring the dynamics within families and social networks, I can empower clients to break free from patterns of dysfunction and create healthier, more fulfilling connections. Through a collaborative process, clients gain clarity on their roles, develop better communication skills, and cultivate a strong sense of self.

The unexamined life, according to Socrates, is not worth living. I want to tell you about who I am, my background, and how I got here. I don’t enjoy wasting time, therefore, I want to be forward and truthful with you right away. I am Egyptian by birth, Russian by education, Canadian by residence, Greek at heart, and Coptic in soul. As you can see, life has led me on a wide variety of travels, and I have met a wide variety of people from various backgrounds.

Here is a summary of my story; my name is Bavly Kost. I’ve always loved reading and writing since I was a child. My interest in history, philosophy, and theology was sparked when I pondered the significance of life, which led me in that direction. I double majored in history and religious studies during my undergrad, graduating with a degree in education. I enjoy coaching and teaching (I’m a clinical supervisor overseeing entry-level psychotherapists) (basketball has always been a passion for me, and I still play to this day).

I pursued two master’s degrees: one in counseling and one in theology. I’m a registered psychotherapist who works as a Spiritual Care Practitioner in the health care setting. In the hospital, I offer spiritual and religious therapy to patients, families, and staff. I also provide counseling in a private setting.

So what can I do to support you? Honestly, I’m not sure but what I will offer you is my honesty, respect, and determination to work with you no matter the situation. We will work together on figuring out life’s journey and see how we can walk together to figure out the meaning of life.

Continue challenging yourself, reading, learning, and shining. Do not stop asking questions and never allow anyone to make fun of you because of what you stand for. You are unique, and others can learn from you by letting your light shine.

-Life is understood backwards but it must be lived forewords - Soren Kierkegaard

Are you feeling unfulfilled by your current situation or wondering what led you to feeling this way? Feeling anxious about what’s next? If so, you are not alone. While we cannot change the past, we can work through the emotions and thoughts that are holding us down, preventing us from moving in a positive direction. We could all use a hand at times, and my goal is to provide that for you – to offer the space and support you need.

As a partner and mother of 2 kids under 5, having had the experience of navigating a corporate career, I know how tough it can all be to juggle. I can understand and am compassionate about the obstacles that you are facing and overcoming on a daily basis. The surmounting pressure on individuals, families, partners, and parents these days is immense and that’s why I would like to work with you to help provide some support, a space that will help relieve some of your angst, gain self-compassion, clear your thoughts, and work through any emotional obstacles that may be burdening you. Whether you need support finding more clarity around your purpose, parenting, relationship, or day-to-day work life balance I am here to help.

I offer a judgment-free, safe space where we can explore your unique situation using the methods that best fit your needs. No one knows your story as well as you do, so we will work together for this experience to be whatever you need it to be at this moment, to help you feel your best. I utilize various modalities depending on your situation and needs and those include, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focussed Therapy (EFT), Solution Focused Therapy, Person-Centered Humanistic Therapy and Existential Therapy.
