Come as you are. Let’s begin from there.

Life can feel heavy sometimes. You may be carrying grief that others don’t understand, navigating a chronic illness that has changed your relationship with yourself, questioning who you are or where you belong, or feeling exhausted from holding everything together. Whatever has brought you here, you don’t have to carry it alone.

I’m Debbie Airth (she/they), a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) and founder of E.A.S.E. Into Therapy. My work is informed by both professional training and lived experience navigating grief, chronic illness, identity, and life’s unexpected transitions. I created this practice because I know how powerful it can be to have a space where you don’t have to explain, defend, or hide parts of yourself to be understood.

As an Indigenous, 2SLGBTQ+, and polyamorous therapist, I understand how important it is to feel safe bringing your full identity into the therapy space. My goal is to create a place where you can show up authentically and be met with respect, curiosity, compassion, and care.

I support individuals and couples navigating:

• Grief and loss (including death, estrangement, divorce, illness, pet loss, and other life transitions)

• Chronic illness and chronic pain

• Identity exploration (gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, cultural identity, polyamory, and life transitions)

• Trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and emotional overwhelm

• Relationship challenges, self-esteem, and personal growth

My approach is trauma-informed, identity-affirming, grief-literate, and rooted in genuine human connection. Drawing from Somatic Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Compassionate Inquiry, DBT, mindfulness, and other evidence-informed approaches, I tailor therapy to your unique needs, experiences, and goals.

I don’t believe people are broken. I believe we all develop ways of surviving difficult experiences, and sometimes those strategies no longer serve us. Together, we’ll explore your story with curiosity and compassion, build on your strengths, and create space for healing, growth, and meaningful change.

Whether you’re seeking support for a specific challenge or simply trying to reconnect with yourself, you are welcome here.
