Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW

Life is full of challenges, and some are more manageable than others. You may be feeling overwhelmed by an issue that you can identify but have no idea how to tackle. Alternatively, you may be discontented or anxious with no idea why; you just know something isn't right. You may even be wondering if it's "all in your head." No matter how you feel or what you're struggling with, it is possible to get yourself back on track and begin to enjoy life again. The power to change is within you.
Signpost Counselling Service
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Verified
The focus of my professional practice is to assist individuals in identifying ways that will move them towards who they want to be and the life they want to live. My training has been primarily in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which is based on the premise of learning to accept what is out of our personal control and commit to action that can improve our life. Getting caught up in difficult private experiences including painful memories, worries about the future or intense emotions can inhibit our ability to think clearly and take the necessary steps to improve our circumstances.

Welcome to my site. I help people work through traumatic experiences and many of the more common stressors in life. This can be either a one-time event, or series of ongoing incidents taking place over time that continue to affect you. While different for everyone, these experiences can contribute to feelings of dread, anxiety, increased irritability, depression, avoidance, sleepless nights, and feelings of being alone in the world. These are normal reactions to many of the challenges we face in today's world. Although difficult and painful, these experiences do not have to continue to negatively affect you.
Spotlight Counselling & Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, CCC, RP(Q), MACP
Verified
Are you often in a situation that feels like the spotlight is on you? Being in a state of performance can lead to feelings of anxiety or self-doubt and can show up as a heaviness in the body, a loss of control, and even memory. Whether you’re in sports, on stage or in front of the camera, in the boardroom, or in front of your classmates/peers - these moments can feel like all eyes are on you. And that can be terrifying. An unsuccessful experience can replay in your mind, and can even impact the rest of your life. With support, you can begin to regain trust in yourself and move forward with renewed confidence.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or life stresses that are interfering with your quality of life? If so I want you to know you are not alone! Life can lead you down many pathways, some are clear, while others have challenges blocking your way. It is during these times that you might need support and/or new tools to empower you while you navigate through these difficult times. It would be an honour to help you understand your emotions, thoughts and actions while guiding you into finding the right tools and pathways needed on your journey towards achieving goals, a more peaceful lifestyle, or meaningful relationships.

Registered Psychotherapist, MC, BA, CCC

Do your problems seem hopeless (e.g. Depression, Anxiety, Wrath, Confusion)? Can't break the habit you're stuck in (e.g. Addiction)? Or don't know how you feel, where to go, or what to do? It's hard, or impossible, to talk about it with friends and family. There are answers to your problems, it just might not be where you expect it. Professional therapy/counsel can be that answer. You don't have to be alone.

Robert Goulard Counselling service
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, CACII
Verified
The ultimate goal in counselling is; to empower a person to reach their fullest potential in life. Counselling is especially important when a person is experiencing problems or difficulties which are affecting his or her quality of life. Lifestyle changes can cause tremendous fear and insecurity in people, especially for those who have unknowingly relied upon ineffective ways of coping with the everyday stresses of life. Turning to a competent and qualified therapist who can provide confidential support and advice about private worries or concerns at times of difficulty, can be most reassuring and helpful.
