Introducing Simona Tanasie Psychologist : Supporting Mental Health with Compassion, Understanding, and Care

At Flagstone Family Practice, we understand that mental health is just as important as physical health. That’s why we’re delighted to welcome Simona Tanasie to our team as our newest Psychologist.

Simona brings a compassionate, person-centred approach to psychological care, helping children, adolescents, and adults navigate life’s challenges in a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental environment. She is passionate about empowering individuals to better understand themselves, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

Creating a Safe Space for Growth and Healing

Seeking support can be one of the most important steps a person takes for their wellbeing, and Simona believes that every individual deserves to feel heard, respected, and understood throughout that journey.

Her warm and collaborative approach focuses on building genuine therapeutic relationships where clients feel comfortable sharing their experiences, challenges, and goals. By taking the time to understand each person’s unique circumstances, Simona tailors her support to meet individual needs and help clients move forward with confidence.

Whether someone is experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties, or navigating a particularly challenging period in life, Simona works alongside her clients to help them develop practical strategies, build emotional resilience, and improve their overall quality of life.
