Leticia Osei Psychotherapy Feeling overwhelmed or emotionally drained? I help individuals, couples & teams navigate burnout, trauma, stress, anxiety and reconnect with themselves.

Psychotherapist | Google Workplace Facilitator You’ve been wanting to tell your story all along; you just needed someone who cares enough to listen without judgment. I’m Leticia. My primary goal is to provide individuals dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, parenting issues, anger management issues, divorce, workplace racism/bullying, addiction, low self-esteem, and self-blame with a welcoming and safe environment to share their stories. By approaching your experiences from a strength-based, non-blaming, and non-pathological perspective, we can work together to explore the various aspects of your narrative and how they may have contributed to your current challenges. My background as a Registered Nurse has given me a unique perspective on mental health. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) I believe that mental health is not a linear phenomenon, but rather a multifaceted one that requires a holistic approach to address colonization, racism, trauma, and oppression. I use Emotion Focused Therapy in a culturally sensitive manner to help you express your thoughts, feelings, and emotions in a way that allows you to speak your truth, regain your power, and move forward with your life

Throughout our therapeutic journey, I will incorporate Trauma-Informed, Cognitive Behavioral, and Psychodynamic Therapy to help you understand the connections between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we will create a treatment plan that is holistic, practical, culturally sensitive, and based on evidence-based practices. I would be honoured to be the vessel through which you can heal the parts of yourself that have been holding you back from living a fully functioning life. Price Range
$170 per session

Leticia Osei Psychotherapy was honored to be a featured speaker at the Beyond The Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Art Exhibition, organized by Abiola Abiola Idowu King 👑

Beyond the diagnosis, women deserve to have their emotional wellbeing, grief, identity, and healing acknowledged.

As a Registered Psychotherapist and Registered Nurse, I believe in the power of art to create space for emotional expression, connection, and healing.

Through a trauma informed and grief informed lens, we recognize that women need more than medical care. They deserve compassionate mental health support, community, and spaces where they can be seen beyond their diagnosis.

Advocating for women’s health also means amplifying women’s voices in politics, leadership, healthcare, and the decisions that shape their lives. Awareness is important, but awareness must lead to action, representation, and equitable care.

Support the cause by visiting Beyond The Pink, engage with its work, share its message, and help amplify breast cancer awareness through art, storytelling, and community advocacy.

Every conversation brings us closer to a world where women’s health is prioritized and every woman’s story matters.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and we cannot turn away from men’s mental health.

These conversations are connected, and it is time we had them.

We must examine what we teach boys about emotions, vulnerability, and control. When boys are taught to suppress their feelings and mistake vulnerability for weakness, they may enter adulthood without the tools to process difficult emotions.

But let me be clear. Understanding the roots of harmful behaviour does not excuse it. Domestic violence is a choice, and accountability is non-negotiable.

Abuse destroys safety, dismantles trust, and leaves psychological wounds that can remain long after a relationship ends. Survivors may continue to experience hypervigilance, fear, and difficulty feeling safe.

If we are serious about prevention, we must address the harm while challenging the cultural messages that sustain it. We must teach boys that sadness deserves space, rejection does not justify retaliation, and anger does not have to become aggression.

This responsibility extends beyond the home. Churches, barber shops, mosques, temples, and other places of worship, workplaces, and community must become spaces where men can speak honestly about emotional struggles and where harmful attitudes toward women, control, and violence are challenged, not excused.

Men must also hold other men accountable, challenge abusive language and behaviour, and stop treating silence as loyalty. Supporting a friend means confronting harmful behaviour, not protecting his reputation at someone else’s.

To the women, children, and men whose lives were lost to domestic violence, you are not forgotten. May we honour your lives by protecting those still at risk.

Leticia Osei Psychotherapy had the pleasure of being a featured speaker Dare to Rise It Takes a Village-We Are That Village where I had the opportunity to speak about emotional wellness and su***de prevention.

Su***de prevention is not a conversation for one month. It is an all-year-round commitment to compassion, early support, and creating spaces where people feel safe to speak about what they are carrying.

Emotional wellness means recognizing when we are struggling and being willing to check in on others beyond the surface. Sometimes, the people who need support are still working, parenting, leading, achieving, smiling, and showing up for everyone else.

We need to become more comfortable asking meaningful questions:

“How are you really doing?”
“You don’t seem like yourself lately. Do you want to talk?”
“What has been weighing on you?”
“How can I support you right now?”

When someone tells us they are struggling, we do not always need to fix, minimize, compare, or give advice. Sometimes they simply need someone willing to listen and sit with them in a difficult moment.

Su***de prevention also means building families, workplaces, schools, and communities where people feel seen, valued, and supported. It means checking on the person who is always checking on everyone else, making room for grief, recognizing burnout, and reminding people that asking for help is not a failure.

We also need to be comfortable talking about su***de directly and safely. If you are concerned about someone, asking directly whether they are thinking about su***de can open an important conversation.

Call or text 9-8-8 for su***de crisis support. If someone is in immediate danger, call 9-1-1.

Emotional intimacy within a marriage or partnership requires certain conditions.

It requires presence, genuine, attentive presence rather than managed performance.

It requires vulnerability, the willingness to be known, to share what is actually happening internally, and to allow your partner access to your authentic experience.

And it requires responsiveness, the capacity to notice your partner’s emotional state and respond in a way that helps them feel seen, heard, and received.

Burnout compromises all three.

When you’re emotionally depleted, being present can feel exhausting.

Vulnerability can feel like one more demand. And responding to your partner’s needs can become difficult when you’re barely keeping up with your own.

Sometimes the distance between couples isn’t a lack of love. It’s depletion.

The love may still be there. The capacity for connection may just be running on empty.

If this resonates with you or your relationship, save this post and share it with your partner.

Recovery from marital burnout means admitting that the way you were functioning as a couple was never sustainable.

Yes, you still love each other deeply, but the relationship has become buried beneath exhaustion.

It may have worked for a while. Until one person became exhausted from carrying too much, asking for too little, and quietly putting their own needs last.

Healing is not about returning to that version of the relationship.

It is about creating something different.

A partnership where the mental load is shared.
Where needs can be spoken without guilt.
Where both people can say, “I do not have the capacity for this right now,” and be met with understanding instead of resentment.

Couples therapy can help you have the conversations that burnout made difficult and begin creating a relationship that feels more balanced, honest, and connected.

You do not have to know exactly how to get there. You just have to be willing to begin.

Sometimes the marriage is not falling apart. One or both people are simply exhausted from holding too much for too long.

Marital burnout can begin quietly when one person carries the emotional, mental, practical, and relational load of the family.

Over time, that exhaustion can become resentment, disconnection, conflict, silence, and feeling more like partners in survival than partners in life.

Burnout changes relationships when the weight being carried is never named.

Ready to explore what burnout may be doing to your relationship?

Couples therapy can help you slow down, understand the patterns, hear what has been left unsaid, and begin finding your way back to each other.

Because the goal is not simply to stop fighting. It is to feel connected again.

If you are ready to take the first step, reach out to book a couples therapy consultation. Your relationship deserves a place to be heard too.

Maternal burnout does not always announce itself. It often settles in quietly, somewhere between the demands of early motherhood and the growing realization that you have been running on empty for far too long.

You can love being a mother and still be completely exhausted by motherhood.

It can look like waking up tired even after sleeping, feeling overwhelmed by small requests, snapping at your children and then feeling guilty, having no patience left by the end of the day, constantly thinking about what everyone needs, and realizing you cannot remember the last time you felt like yourself.

It can look like doing everything that needs to be done while feeling emotionally numb inside.

And despite how common it is, maternal burnout remains largely unrecognized.

About 80% of maternal burnout cases go unrecognized. Postpartum anxiety affects approximately 10% to 20% of mothers, while about 1 in 5 mothers experience postpartum depression.

Maternal burnout is not a sign that you do not love your child. Sometimes it is a sign that you have been giving, anticipating, managing, and holding everything together for far too long.

If anything in this resonates, please know that what you are carrying has a name. And it deserves real clinical support. Not just time.

If you are struggling with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, or other perinatal mental health concerns, you can reach out to Postpartum Support International Canada at 1 800 944 4773 for support and help connecting with resources.

If you are experiencing a mental health crisis or having thoughts of su***de, call or text 9 8 8, Canada’s Su***de Crisis Helpline, available 24/7. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

If this resonates, COMMENT, SHARE, and SAVE this for every mother in your life who is holding everything together while running on empty.

It is never a dull moment when I meet up with my cousins. 𝙈𝙖𝙖𝙢𝙚 𝙆𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙙𝙪 thanks for arranging this outing. It was wholesome.

What started as a dinner outing turned into a deep conversation about women’s mental health, particularly maternal mental health.

We talked about motherhood and identity loss. How easy it can be to become so consumed by being a mother, partner, daughter, and a working mother that you lose touch with the woman underneath all those roles.

We also explored maternal burnout, postpartum depression and anxiety, and the emotional weight that often goes unseen.

The conversation also touched on marriage, intimacy, resentment, infidelity, divorce, and how relationships can change when couples are navigating parenthood while struggling to find time for themselves.

And oh, we had to discuss maternal self-care and the importance of having safe people in your inner circle.

This dinner was self-care for me. Taking a break from responsibilities, sitting around a table, laughing, being vulnerable, and having honest conversations with people I feel safe with.

Having safe people in your inner circle matters. People you can be yourself around. People you can talk to without judgment. People who remind you that you are more than your roles and responsibilities.

Sometimes self-care is simply making space to reconnect with yourself and the people who help you feel like you again.

Motherhood matters. Marriage matters. Family matters.

But so do you.

And who you surround yourself with matters too.

Let’s talk about how delicious the food was Chiang Mai

One of the deepest forms of grief is mourning the inner child who carried grief they were too young to understand.

The child who had to stay quiet to survive.
The child who trusted too easily.
The child who blamed themselves.

There is a version of that child that is still waiting for the apology, the protection, the love, or the safety they needed.

Most often the hardest person to forgive is the child who learned to survive in ways they never should have needed.

But you can stop blaming that child for how they survived.

They were never the problem. They were doing the best they could with what they had.

Part of your healing is grieving that you cannot go back and give your younger self the childhood they deserved.

Grieve what they lost.
Grieve what they needed.
And then, gently, forgive them.

They deserved compassion then. They deserve it from you now.

Save this as a reminder to offer your inner child the compassion they deserve.
