Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
I find clients are looking to understand themselves, to find reasons they struggle the way they do, and discover how they got where they are. We've all been influenced by our experiences, whether good or bad. Good healthy experiences give us the tools and confidence to navigate life, but what happens when our experiences have been far from good? A child experiencing abuse, trauma, loss, and neglect believes they deserve it or it's their fault, not knowing the adults in their lives are responsible to help them feel secure and confident. Negative childhood experiences often throw individuals into feeling too much responsibility, becoming people pleasers, carrying much shame and guilt, feeling like a burden, social awkwardness, experiencing cognitive distortions, depression, addictions, loss of identity, anxiety and panic disorders, inter-relational problems, lack of confidence, and a lack of boundaries. Clients need to know they're not to blame and there's hope to experience a healthier and purposeful life, the life they were meant to have. Clients need to know they belong, they matter and are not a mistake. If you want to find freedom, purpose, contentment, and healing schedule a 30 minute free consultation to explore whether we'd be a good fit to journey together to a better you.

Hi there, my name's Eric. My aim is to treat each person as unique with their own special strengths, flaws, values, and aspirations. I treat each person with dignity, respect, and unconditional positive regard. I come with a wide range of experience internationally (US and Canada) and have extensive knowledge and psychotherapy tools. Best of all, what you see is what you get with me. Authenticity is something I hold in high regard. Take care and best wishes on your own journey!

Elliott Kemmet
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, BSW, RSW
*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* In my practice, I prioritize creating a supportive and relaxed environment where therapy is a highlight of your week, not something you dread. I aim to make each session feel like a meaningful conversation rather than a clinical procedure, where you can laugh and heal in equal measure. My approach is to foster a space where deep reflection leads to clarity and peace, encouraging you to explore your thoughts and emotions openly.
I value a therapeutic experience that allows you to be your authentic self, supported by warmth and non-judgment. Each session is designed to empower you, facilitating personal growth and emotional healing through genuine connection and empathy. Join me in a setting committed to nurturing your wellness journey with intention and care.

If your mental health is affecting areas of your life such as relationships, career, health, spirituality and personal development, I would like to guide you towards quieting the mind of these thoughts and emotions. Learning and practicing the necessary tools to aid in coping is a vital . Being vulnerable to your thoughts and emotions can be challenging, and learning to sit with the uncomfortable is difficult. However, the good news is that you already possess the skills needed to address these issues. During our time together, I will help you to uncover and practice these skills in order to live a more clear headed and focused life.
