About
Common Ground Therapy is a space for mind-body healing that treats all the parts of you that make you you — your thoughts, your body, your nervous system, your magic! We offer psychotherapy, somatic bodywork, and registered massage services to support your mental health and help you enhance and restore your authentic strengths. To keep us centered in our values we also run community workshops that help fund housing for women escaping domestic violence.
We are rooted in values of integrity, community, and care. Our space is intersectional, neuro-affirming, and accessible, designed to support the beautifully diverse ways people show up and heal.
Our Team
Caitlin Black
Caitlin believes that healing happens when we can be our full, messy, paradoxical, light, dark, and whole magical selves. She provides a neuro-affirming, trauma-informed corner of the universe where masks are removed and an authentic self begins to emerge. The complex and multidimensional release of grief and loss, frustration and anger, sadness and joy enter the therapeutic relationship to help challenge you inside and outside of sessions to shift and lean into the (sometimes uncomfortable but 100% worthwhile) change you want to experience.
Equipped with your courage, persistence, and vulnerability, she is confident in her clients' ability to eventually overcome the obstacles and symptoms that they previously felt unable to manage.
Her style is collaborative, warm and grounded in integrative and evidence-based approaches like person-centered and humanistic approaches, behavioural modification, metacognitive, dialectical methods, psychotherapy, expressive arts narrative and somatic therapies.
She is honest, sincere, and grounded in the belief that therapy should be both empowering and practical, supporting your process, developing clarity about where you’re headed and how you want to get there.

Paris Peters, RMT

Paris is a registered massage therapist (RMT) with a special focus on supporting mental health through somatic care. Her practice is rooted in the belief that the body holds stories, and that healing happens when we offer it gentleness, attention, and space to release.
She specializes in working with clients experiencing burnout, high-functioning anxiety, and nervous system dysregulation. Her offerings include therapeutic facial massage and full-body treatments that support circulation, reduce tension, and help the body return to a state of calm.
Paris brings a warm, grounded presence to her sessions, and holds a deeply inclusive, trauma-informed space that is neuroaffirming, queer- and trans-friendly, and body-positive. Whether you're coming in for rest, regulation, or ongoing care, Paris will meet you with curiosity, respect, and a deep commitment to your healing.
