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 needs tending. I’d love to meet you where you’re at.
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 (ICU and Sexual Assault & Domestic Violence 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, integrating parts work and Coherence Therapy.
In my practice, I aim to cultivate a non-judgemental space that supports 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.

Why I Do This
The death of my mother in 2019 reshaped me and deepened my commitment to this work. During that time, I confronted a distress-avoidant culture with isolating expectations about “wellness.” This led me to question how we relate to pain and what it truly means to stay with it.
As a fellow griever, a survivor, and a person in recovery, I have learned that healing is self-defined and ever evolving. It belongs to each of us, and as such, it is imperfect but real.
I am drawn to the threshold moments we are tempted to rush past, where something in us shifts, sometimes subtly, sometimes in ways that surprise us. For me, this work is a place where pain is neither bypassed nor pathologized, but worked with directly.
