About me
“You are not your illness. You have an individual story to tell. You have a name, a history, and a personality. Staying yourself is part of the battle.”
– Julian Seifter
Hi, my name is Amit Hochman (She/ Her), and I am a proud mother of two young kids (5 and 7). When I am not in a session, you can find me spending time with my two little kids, walking my dog, watching TV, reading, or experimenting in the kitchen.
I am a passionate social worker. I work with adults who experience depression, anxiety, trauma, perinatal mental health and more.

I believe that we all have a story to tell that influences our lives. So, through my own lived experience, professional experience, and training, I am bringing my whole self to support you in working through your unique story.
As a professional with lived experience in perinatal and fertility challenges in my past, including IVF treatments, pregnancy loss and postpartum depression, I am passionate about supporting clients who are struggling with these issues in their current lives. I am open, inclusive, supportive, and non-judgmental in my practice with my clients.
From my own lived experience with trauma and as an experienced clinical trauma counsellor, I know that any challenging and stressful experience from your past can be experienced as traumatic and affect your present and future.
We will work together to support you in obtaining emotional and practical tools that will allow your growth and healing journey and help you build a whole and meaningful life.
I offer daytime and evening sessions. I believe it allows anyone to overcome barriers of geographic location and manage time in the demanding world, especially for parents who juggle multiple responsibilities.
