Feeling stressed, angry, fearful, and/or sad is what most of us go through. This is not bad because it clarifies what you desire deep down. But if you continue to feel these emotions, they become real issues that make you feel defeated, beat up, and exhausted. "Be positive" doesn't always work. But there are ways to feel better. You can learn exactly how our mind and body work which can give you back control and autonomy. My counseling goal is to support you in realizing and believing you have all the power to overcome anything. My approach is heart-centered. Thank you for the opportunity to be your support.

Do you struggle with self-blame, fear of judgment, or saying no? Are you taking on too much responsibility or feeling unproductive? Many of my clients like you feel pressured to meet high expectations and avoid mistakes—not just from perfectionism, but from a fear of letting others down. They may internalize criticism and ruminate on perceived faults or 'failures,' which fuels a cycle of anxiety and self-doubt. For some, this stems from past experiences where expressing needs wasn’t encouraged, or they were told they were 'wrong' for how they felt. You may feel unseen, or not enough, which can drain energy and block self-care.

As the daughter of low-income immigrants, I intimately understand the complexities of navigating bicultural expectations and growing up with limited resources. I bring firsthand experience that allows me to deeply grasp the complexity and importance of incorporating an intersectional framework. Growing up, I rarely encountered BIPOC representation, making it more meaningful for me today to serve as a woman of colour counsellor. I have consistently sought roles in the helping profession that involve supporting others. I offer various forms of support to families and individuals with a wide range of mental health needs.

My approach is tailored to the needs of each individual. I emphasize the importance of a strong, compassionate therapeutic relationship and work primarily from a trauma informed, client-centered model. I incorporate elements of emotion focused, narrative, dialectical behavioural, internal family systems, parts work, attachment, strengths/resiliency based, and somatic approaches. I primarily work from a process oriented place by working on issues brought up in the moment and spending time breaking down the beliefs, emotions, and behaviours that accompany each issue.

In our sessions, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where you can freely explore your thoughts and emotions, so we can create meaningful change together. While counselling can be challenging, I believe it should also include humour, hope, and comfort, making it a place where you can truly learn and grow. Many of my clients seek support during life transitions or when grappling with an inner critic and overwhelming emotions. I specialize in helping with anxiety, depression, ADHD/ADD, parenting and family dynamics, relationship issues, grief and loss, trauma, psychedelic integration, and career concerns.

Do you often feel misunderstood and under-appreciated? Do you long for more connection in your relationship, but struggle to express your feelings and needs effectively? You want good things for yourself: great relationships, a healthy routine, a satisfying career path. You deserve all of this – and yet, your efforts are not getting you the results that you want. You may think that others are not cooperating with you, or that the world is unfair. And while sometimes that's true, your mood, self-esteem, and overthinking brain also may have other plans for you, making it difficult to move forward.

I'm Mitchell McGregor, a Mental Health Counsellor dedicated to supporting teen and young adult men on their journey. As a 23 year old myself, I closely understand the unique challenges that come with transitioning from adolescence to adulthood. The pressures of school, relationships, and societal expectations can be overwhelming. It can be a difficult and confusing time, and it's not uncommon to feel lost, overwhelmed, or unsure of where to turn for help. That's where I come in.

Do you feel like you’ve reached your breaking point, yet aren’t breaking through to the next level? Maybe you fluctuate between feeling scattered or paralyzed when it comes down to keeping up with everything. You might feel stuck when it comes to improving your relationships, career, or self-care. From the outside it can look like you don’t care enough, lack motivation, or are just not trying. We know that isn’t true. You are self-aware, especially about the kind of life you want, and who you’d love to be.

Hi there, my name is Kathryn Gardiner. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and I love what I do. Life is hard. For everyone. Finding someone to help make it less so can be tricky and also deeply rewarding. I believe in not only championing and supporting my clients but equipping them with the skills necessary to reach their greatest potential. I take great pride in walking alongside those who recognize the need to do a little digging. Witnessing the courage it takes to do so never ceases to move me, and in turn inspires me to continue my work. On the job and off.

If you have been feeling distant from your partner or finding that your conflicts go around in circles, I am the right therapist for you. Regardless of the specific issue, I find that one thing can often be missing—a close connection, a secure attachment, or sometimes it’s that “spark” that brought them together initially. Through communication and other skills, I support couples in rebuilding that connection. Once this foundation is established, the couples often share that they feel softer and more endearing toward each other, naturally becoming more open to exploring new ways to solve the old issues.
