About ThanaLimina
Welcome! I'm Valeria Onoszko, a Registered Nurse Psychotherapist specializing in grief, trauma, and life transitions.
I am so thankful for your presence here – knowing that life's nuanced challenges have brought us together.
Background & Approach
With nearly a decade of experience as an acute care registered nurse, most recently in the Intensive Care Unit, I've had the honor of participating in a diverse range of healing journeys. Though this hands-on experience has shown me the positive effects of compassionate healthcare, I am keenly aware that many of us must navigate systems which also have the potential to cause harm.
This perspective propels me to create an inclusive practice here at ThanaLimina. It also fuels my commitment to addressing my own blind spots and biases, while actively deconstructing harmful conditioning.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in a holistic, trauma-informed, and relational framework.
My goal is to cultivate a secure and non-judgmental space that nurtures exploration and flexibility.
In my practice, I prioritize collaboration and feedback, value mutual authenticity, and celebrate the full spectrum of your human experience.
My Qualifications
Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN), University of Windsor
+ Grief Counselling
+ Acceptance & Commitment Therapy
+ Somatic Work
+ Parts Work
My "Why"
The catalyst for my personal healing journey was the death of my mother in 2019—a loss that ignited my commitment to this vocation. In the midst of that heart-breaking time, I confronted a prevailing death-phobic culture—marked by aversion, anxiety, and isolating expectations of grieving. This experience inspired me to challenge the way I conceptualize and navigate grief in my own life, which has led me here. Guided by a deep reverence for liminality—a transformative threshold between the known and the unknown—I'm excited to help individuals alchemize pain into empowerment, and embrace life wholly.
Connect With Me
Healing is an ongoing, non-linear process of restoration and remembrance; it's far from a one-size-fits-all destination. I understand that major life changes can feel daunting and destabilizing, and I would be honored to accompany you on your journey.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation call where we can discuss what brings you to therapy, answer questions, and decide if we are a good fit to work together.
