Valeria Ciric

About Valeria

Valeria (Val) Ciric is a Registered Social Worker and holds a Master of Social Work with a focus in Health and Mental Health from the University of Toronto. She works with individuals and families across a range of life stages, supporting those navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, identity shifts, and experiences of grief and loss. She has a particular focus on perinatal mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood, while also working more broadly with clients facing complex life transitions and emotional challenges in any stage of life. Val has several years of experience working with children and their families in various capacities across sectors, including mental/community health, child welfare, research, and policy. She has experience supporting parents and families through complex and emotionally charged situations, including parenting stress, high-conflict relationships, custody and access, and the impacts of trauma. Val approaches this work from a trauma-informed and family-centred perspective, recognizing that each person’s experiences are shaped by their relationships, histories, and the broader systems around them. Val’s approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that people’s responses make sense in context. She works with clients to slow things down, explore what’s underneath the surface, and find ways of coping and relating that feel more manageable and aligned. She draws from a range of approaches, including emotion-focused, cognitive-behavioural, systemic, and psychodynamic, and feminist perspectives, tailoring her work to each person’s needs. Val creates space for the complexity of playing multiple roles and wearing many ‘hats’ in our lives. She seeks to practice with cultural humility and pays close attention to how culture, identity, and relational dynamics shape our experiences - particularly in the context of family relationships, expectations, and intergenerational dynamics. Her background also includes crisis intervention work, supporting individuals through periods of acute distress with care, presence, and a focus on safety and stabilization. She is currently completing a certificate in Death, Dying, and Bereavement at Wilfrid Laurier University, which informs her work with clients navigating grief and loss. Outside of her work, Val enjoys baking, watching reality television and documentaries, and spending time thrifting and crafting. Val strives to create a space where clients feel safe, seen, and not judged. She understands that reaching out for support can feel like a big step, and welcomes clients to connect when they feel ready. Val can support you with: Navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood Managing anxiety, overwhelm, and major life transitions Processing grief and loss, including pregnancy loss Working through parenting stress and complex family dynamics Coping during high-conflict relationships or separation Making sense of trauma and difficult past experiences Building practical tools while also exploring deeper emotional patterns Culturally responsive and equity-informed practice
