About ThanaLimina
Hi, I’m Valeria Onoszko.
I’m a Registered Nurse Psychotherapist based in Ontario.
I’m really glad you’re here. If you’ve landed on this page, something in your life is shifting, and I’d love to meet you in it.
Scroll down to learn more about how I got into this work and what guides me now.
My Background
With over a decade of experience as an acute care registered nurse, most recently in Intensive Care, I've had the honour 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 intentional, anti-oppressive 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 experiential, trauma-informed, and highly personalized, drawing from somatic and parts work, grief counselling, and Coherence Therapy.
In my practice, I aim to cultivate a non-judgemental space that supports collaboration and exploration, while honouring the full spectrum of your human experience. Our therapy sessions are meant to be a gentle landing place, where you don’t have to please or perform.

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 heartbreaking time, I confronted a grief-phobic culture marked by distress avoidance and isolating expectations about “wellness.” That experience led me to question how we understand pain, loss, and the liminal.
Like you, I am a griever, a survivor, a person in recovery. I know what it is to feel undone by grief, to move through the shadows of addiction, and to live in a body shaped by trauma. I have made mistakes. I have searched for meaning when none could be found. And I have learned that healing is not about perfection. It is about making contact with what is true, and the willingness to stay with what hurts.
Guided by a deep reverence for liminality, that strange and transformative threshold between the known and the unknown, I’m drawn to this work as a place where pain can be metabolized and life lived more wholly. The longing in me sees the longing in you.
