Andrea Hendy
Counsellor, MA, RCC
Verified
My therapeutic approach is deeply informed by attachment theory,
emotionally focused
therapy, and existential themes involving meaning & purpose.
Oftentimes we feel ‘stuck’ as though no movement forward is possible, or that our story is too complex to navigate and find healing from. Through my own experience, and in journeying alongside others, I have come to believe that freedom and life, even in the midst of significant pain and loss is possible. My clinical approach is unique, as I seek to incorporate the spiritual journey of the client, as understood through a Christian worldview, into the therapeutic process. I work using a parallel process of deepening your understanding of Self, and of God as you begin to reflect on your story.
Merkl Marriage Counselling - Simone
Counsellor, RTCc
Verified
The effects of the last few years have caused an additional strain on marriages and families. Relationships can fall into negative patterns of disconnection and neglect. It can be devastating when one feels their partner is not there for them. I assist couples struggling with an emotional or physical affair, a life transition, or who feel stuck in their current patterns. I recommend pre-marital counselling as a beneficial way to address any potential challenges. I implement the Gottman Method,
Emotionally Focused
or Relational Life Therapy depending on your needs as a couple.

Annie Cousland Counselling & Consulting
Counsellor, MA, RCC
Verified
I provide individual, couples, and family counselling using a variety of techniques, including person-centred therapy,
emotionally focused
therapy, and cognitive-behavioural therapy, among others.
Clarity. Understanding. Acceptance. These are all things we want for ourselves but, occasionally, the mirror of our mind becomes clouded and tarnished by anxiety, depression, trauma, and a variety of other life struggles. This can distort how we see ourselves, people around us, and the potential for our future. We can work together to shift your view, restore clarity and hope for the present, and bring new possibilities for a transformed future into focus.

Jin Broughton
Counsellor, MC, RCC
Verified
My foundation of therapy is a biopsychosocial-spiritual model, viewing human beings as whole persons of four aspects: physical, psychological, social, and spiritual. Therefore, I am able to see the whole picture on how a brain injury, physical illness, physical trauma, or substance abuse affects human emotions, cognition, behavior, and spirituality, or vice versa. My approach utilizes Cognitive Rehabilitation therapy (CRT), Rogerian therapy, Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT), and Narrative therapy in order to help my clients toward problem solving and having a new hope for a new life.

Noble Roots : Counselling & Yoga Therapy
Counsellor, MA, RCC
Verified
People seek counselling support for many different reasons, and they are all valid. Some folks would like to deepen their knowing of themselves in order to make choices in life that are more authentic to them. Some would like to cope with stress better, or to learn how to improve relationships. Maybe there are specific mental health issues to address, or trauma to process and heal from. It may be useful to understand one's attachment style and how this may affect relating and communication with others. Attending to all of this and more is possible with counselling support.
Ally Counselling
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, BSW, MSW , RSW
Verified
Everyone experiences situations in their lives when things do not work out as planned or desired. You may be having a difficult time in moving forward without the time, tools and support to do so in a positive way. Our emotional health is equally, if not more, important than our physical and mental health. When we are faced with trauma, our emotional health takes a toll and affects our ability to manage and demonstrate the emotions that arise from what we have experienced. When individuals and family members address and work on issues, which have been buried for years, they are able to achieve a sense of peace, balance and comfort.
Brenda DeVries

Verified
Our life stories are unique and layered. Even so, common threads can be found within our narratives: threads of pain, stuckness, and disconnection, but also ones of resilience, courage, and beauty.

Emotionally Focused Counsellors
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an approach to therapy that helps clients identify their emotions, learn to explore and experience them, to understand them and then to manage them. Langley Emotionally Focused Therapy embraces the idea that emotions can be changed, first by arriving at or 'living' the maladaptive emotion (e.g. loss, fear or shame) in session, and then learning to transform it. Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples seeks to break the negative emotion cycles within relationships, emphasizing the importance of the attachment bond between couples, and how nurturing of the attachment bonds and an empathetic understanding of each others emotions can break the cycles.
