STUDENT THERAPIST (she/her)
Ramann Patara is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and Intern Therapist completing her internship placement at Cherry Tree Counselling. Ramann works with individual adults looking for support with anxiety, depression, stress, life skills, self-care, coping skills, and perinatal and maternal mental health.
“I’m a therapist, teacher, mom and learner. I want my clients to leave each session feeling uplifted and hopeful.”
Ramann is currently accepting new clients with no wait times, both online and in-person (Dundas/Hamilton), through our Affordable Therapy Program. For those facing financial hardship, our suggested rate is $70 per session, but we may be able to adjust rates based on individual needs. Single or multiple sessions are available.
“I am honored to be a partner in your wellness journey. Together, we will navigate life’s challenges and aspirations, blending meaningful conversations with moments of laughter and understanding.”
Hello, I’m Ramann. I love creating community and working with people.
Like you, I am a woman who wears many hats.
I’m a therapist. I have a special commitment to serving the BIPOC community, parents and educators. I understand the unique hurdles that we face and the need for a safe, inclusive space where we can feel valued and respected.
In my practice, I emphasize empathy, authenticity, and confidentiality, fostering genuine connections that nurture trust and openness.
I'm a learner. Growing up, I was always curious about the world around me. My passion for environmental education blossomed into a career focused on social justice, where I discovered the power of community and connection. I started my journey with organizations like Earth Day Canada and War Child Canada, working to foster engagement and sustainability. This early experience lit a fire in me to advocate for access and equity, particularly for underserved communities.
I'm a teacher. As I transitioned to supporting students through Pathways to Education Canada, I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of education. I had the privilege of guiding young minds toward high school graduation and their next steps. Today, as a specialized reading intervention teacher with the Toronto District School Board, I continue to empower students, helping them unlock their potential and succeed in their academic journeys.
I'm a mom. Of all the roles and seasons of my life, my most rewarding one is being a mother. Navigating the joys and challenges of parenting has deepened my understanding of family dynamics and inspired me to explore Conscious Parenting Coaching. This experience, combined with my pursuit of a Master’s in Counselling Psychology, has equipped me with the tools to support families like yours through Parent Coaching Sessions.
Whether you’re a teacher feeling overwhelmed by the demands of your classroom, a parent seeking guidance through the ups and downs of family life, a member of a marginalized or racialized community or someone looking for personal growth and healing, I’m here for you.
Working together in a strengths-based way we will turn challenges into opportunities and create a brighter, more fulfilling future.
Are you ready to begin this journey together? Reach out today to schedule a free 30-minute meet & greet to see if we are a good fit. I can’t wait to meet you.
