Welcome! It takes courage to begin the journey towards wellness and wholeness. Whether you’re feeling exhausted, confused, sad, numb, anxious, stuck, or just ready to take the next big step, I’d be honoured to walk beside you as you heal and grow. Traumatic or painful life events like violence, abuse, losses, or accidents may have suddenly or drastically thrown you off of your life trajectory. Or, maybe they happened a long time ago yet resurface, affecting habits, decisions, and relationships today. Therapy can help you to feel empowered and in control of your life by restoring stability, safety, and trust.

Jena Iuliano Registered Provisional Psychologist
Registered Provisional Psychologist, MC
Verified
I enjoy working with a variety of clients from teens to older adults on issues ranging from anxiety and depression, stress,
trauma
, addiction, life transitions and sexual identity.
I believe each person is the expert in their own life but sometimes along our journey the lens through which we see the world and ourselves becomes a bit muddied and this impacts the way we behave and react to new experiences. My role in your journey is to help you see clearly again through that lens so you can get back to living more true to your authentic self. I work primarily from an attachment lens and have a gentle, yet direct approach to therapy. I work best with clients who aren't afraid to bring a little humor into sessions when appropriate and safe to do so.

processing. I believe in working from a collaborative approach, where we can work together to reach your goals.

Audra Potter
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, MACP, RSW
Verified
Everyone struggles with certain things at different times in their lives. Mental wellness is a journey, not a destination and we are all at different points along the path. Sometimes, we need help guiding our steps and knowing how best to keep going. My ideal client may be struggling with issues related to anxiety, depression, relationships,
trauma
or personality disorders. Generally, they realize that things in their life are just not working and they want to learn new ways of behaving, thinking and relating to themselves and others to make lasting changes. My practice with clients is collaborative and supportive.

You have probably made your way to this page because you've reached your limit in pain/stress/worry...Perhaps you are misusing or abusing substances OR someone you love is struggling in this area and you aren't sure what you are 'supposed' to do or not do...You are starting to realize that you "don't got this", and that you need some help. Reaching out indicates that you have hope...now it's time to build on that hope.
Rebecca Teebay-Webb & Associates
Psychologist, RPsych

If you experienced
trauma
prior to Covid-19, you may feel relieved that this pandemic provides you with some breathing space from the world.
Our experiences coping with Covid-19 can certainly be defined as traumatic stress, with heightened emotional responses, increased stress levels, feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and a loss of security. Many have needed to take on more roles and responsibilities. Perhaps teaching your kids, continuing to work, and struggling to maintain a harmonious relationship with your partner during these turbulent times. Traumatic stress can bring up upsetting emotions, memories and anxiety that won’t go away. It can also cause us to feel numb, disconnected, and with a sense of powerlessness.

Whether
trauma
has been part of your life or you are wired in such a way that leaves you both overwhelmed by life and misunderstood by others, I'll help you slow down and get deep inside yourself to a place where you will understand yourself better, naturally resolve conflicts inside of you, discover better ways of coping, and find the gift in the wound.
You may relate to having had a pretty messy childhood. Or maybe you know you never really recovered from something bad that happened. And now you’re often surprised at how you react to situations in your life - like at work, or with your partner. You go a bit numb and don’t know what to say or do, or you react more strongly than you’d like and regret it later. Or maybe you have always cared so much about others and the world around you, and have been called “too sensitive”. You seem to take things harder than others and maybe you’re always trying to make things better- but it catches up with you.
