Kaya Quinsey Holt, MPsy, RP

I’m Kaya Quinsey Holt—a psychotherapist, author, and the founder of The Good Chapter, a psychotherapy private practice serving clients across Ontario.

As an author and registered psychotherapist with 10+ years of clinical experience, I  provide therapy in a compassionate and non-judgemental setting. I approach my clients with support and provide an empowering environment where you can explore your experiences, challenge limiting beliefs, and re-author your personal narrative.

My journey in psychology and mental health has taken me through clinical and research settings, including Mount Sinai Hospital, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), and the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). I’ve also had the privilege of mentoring students at the University of Toronto, where I earned my B.Sc. in Psychology, before completing my M.Psy. at Adler Graduate Professional School and my clinical placement at Toronto Western Hospital. My training in Narrative Therapy at The Dulwich Centre has deeply shaped my approach to psychotherapy and my belief in the transformative power of storytelling.

Beyond therapy, I’m also a published author of nine books that have been translated into multiple languages and produced as audiobooks. Through both fiction and therapeutic writing, I explore the ways in which storytelling can help people make sense of their experiences, reframe challenges, and uncover new possibilities for their lives. My goal is to help people rewrite the narratives that no longer serve them—whether that’s through therapy, journaling, or creative expression.

I look forward to meeting with you and helping you start your next chapter.
