New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
We are a team of Registered Psychotherapists and Social Workers who specialize in supporting individuals through effective and research backed trauma, relationship, and sex therapy.
We began as a trauma focused clinic - our team has a solid understanding of the countless small and large ways that trauma impacts us. We work with traumatic stress and related difficulties such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD and complexPTSD), addiction, self-harm, and suicide ideation. We support survivors of sexual violence as well as those who have experienced emotional and physical abuse, criminal victimization, bullying, war, and near death experiences.
We've found that as people heal, relationships and intimacy naturally becomes a secondary focus. For this reason we offer family, couples, and sex therapy. We support individuals of all gender and sexual identities and relationship structures.
We respect diversity and differences in opinions, values and attitudes. This is reflected through individualized treatment plans which consider each individuals lived and generational experiences. We strive to provide culturally-sensitive, non-discriminatory, and affirming care to culturally diverse populations and BIPOC, LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, kink and polyamorous communities.
Our goal is to help you break free from your past and rediscover a fulfilling life filled with joy and connection.

LifeCycle Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, MPE, RP
When you feel confused or lost about what to do in life, or you feel like no matter what you say or who you talk to they just don’t get it.. lean on us. We are here for you.
I became a therapist, because like you, I am human and have had my fair share of battles. It is difficult when you feel unheard, misunderstood, and overwhelmed.
That is why I created LifeCycle Counselling. Our primary focus is YOU. We meet you where you are, and walk alongside you to help you get to where you want to go.
Remember, therapy is an investment, not an expense. Rediscover yourself.

Ms. Alison Fosbery
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
You have probably started looking into therapy to help manage symptoms of anxiety. I help women who are struggling with the same obstacles you are facing. I know you have goals that you are trying to reach, but you likely need some support to learn how to process the past, remain present, and cope effectively.
Most of my clients are also struggling in their relationships. We will explore attachment styles and any other habits that might be negatively contributing to the already excruciating process of dating in 2023.

Ashley Bargent Coaching & Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, ACC (Associate Certified Coach)
You’re feeling stuck in your current career, maybe even burnt out. Every workday, it’s harder to get out of bed. You long for something more and can almost hear a little voice inside you whispering that you deserve it. You’ve tried changing jobs but still feel like a square peg in a round hole. The idea of change feels overwhelming, partly because you overthink and lose sight of how you really feel. You long for a job where your strengths will shine and you can live up to your potential, but you aren’t sure if there’s a job like that out there for you. You have a nagging worry that you will never find a place where you belong.
I have been where you are now. After getting burnt out, I received coaching that helped me find a fulfilling new career by becoming a coach myself. You can get through this with the right support, and I would feel honoured to provide that support.

Laura Farberman
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
Currently accepting new clients. Therapy is the journey of becoming free to be ourselves. Instead of becoming a better version of ourselves, we can connect to who we are at our core, without the coping mechanisms we unconsciously took on to survive. These ways of coping, often wired into our brain and nervous system, can show up differently for each person. For you, it might be perfectionism, procrastination, an inner critic, low self-esteem or anxiety, to name a few. My approach combines the best of practical psychology, science and grounded spiritual psychology. I make the roots of complex emotions, behaviours and addictions accessible and actionable so that you can achieve sustainable change and true transformation. I am trained in Compassionate Inquiry, a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that reveals the patterns beneath how we present to the world amongst other psychotherapeutic modalities.
Through Compassionate Inquiry you begin to recognize the unconscious patterns, which show up as triggers, traumas and ways of coping and suppressing emotions, and how to become free from them. I support clients to reconnect with their bodies, via somatic experience. Benefits include, relief of symptoms of chronic pain, anxiety, depression and addiction.
Soulful Therapy is a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to psychotherapy and an effective way to begin down the path of introspection. It is a place to process what’s going on in your present, make sense of your past, or explore factors that may guide choices to cultivate a life that feels self-compassionate, vibrant, and authentic above all else.
