ABOUT
Cherysse Riviera-Manu
Founder of Butterfly Noise Psychotherapy
The Weight of High Functioning
You know how to hold it all together.
Deadlines, expectations, caregiving, leadership — you’ve built a life that depends on your reliability.
But when calm becomes performative and rest feels undeserved, even small moments of stillness can feel uncomfortable.
Beneath the surface of “doing well,” something quieter is asking for attention.
My Approach
I’m Cherysse Riviera-Manu, a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist licensed in Ontario and Nova Scotia.
For over two decades, I’ve supported professionals, caregivers, and leaders who are deeply capable — yet quietly exhausted.
At Butterfly Noise Psychotherapy, therapy isn’t about fixing or diagnosing what’s wrong.
It’s about creating a space where you no longer have to perform or push through.
Here, you can pause — reflect — and begin to listen to what your body and mind have been trying to say.
You Deserve To Put Yourself First
If you’re:
A high-functioning professional who's silently battling burnout

A caregiver who's too exhausted to care for yourself
A couple facing unspoken tensions and emotional distance

Someone dealing with anxiety, stress, or perfectionism, but unsure of where to start
I see you. And I want you to know that the fact that you’re here is a huge first step toward change. Healing is possible, and I’m here to guide you on this journey, at your pace.
Our Services
At Butterfly Noise Psychotherapy, we provide a variety of therapeutic services specialising in psychotherapy for burnout, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion. Whatever you’re dealing with, we're here to help you heal and reconnect with your authentic self.
Individual Therapy
For those who need a safe space to heal and recharge.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or burnt out, individual therapy can provide the space and support you need to process emotions and rediscover your inner peace. Together, we’ll work on stress management, self-compassion, and emotional well-being, giving you the tools to create lasting change.
Couples Therapy
Reignite connection and strengthen your bond.
Life’s pressures can sometimes create distance in relationships. Couples therapy is for partners who want to reconnect, improve communication, and work through emotional exhaustion. We’ll help you rebuild trust, empathy, and a deeper emotional connection, creating a healthier, more fulfilling partnership.
Family Therapy
A space to untangle, understand, and heal together.
Family dynamics can be challenging, especially during times of transition or tension. Whether you're navigating conflict, communication breakdowns, or family trauma, family therapy offers a safe space to rebuild trust, enhance understanding, and foster healthy connections among all members.
Walk & Talk Therapy
Therapy in motion for those who need a different kind of space.
For many, traditional therapy rooms can feel too confining. Walk & Talk Therapy offers a unique, grounding experience that allows you to process emotions while walking through nature. This approach combines movement with mindfulness to help you release stress and gain clarity.
