Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Providing the same level of care as with face-to-face counselling, online counselling is carried out via video call. We will be able to read each other’s facial expressions, body language and mannerisms in real time and be able to form a client-therapist relationship just as if we are in a face-to face setting. Online counselling offers greater accessibility and flexibility than face-to-face counselling.

Rachelle Tersigni
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I provide trauma-informed psychotherapy for adults experiencing anxiety, relational difficulties, attachment wounds, and/or the effects of complex or developmental trauma. I also work with couples and two-person family configurations.
My work is depth-oriented and relational, with an emphasis on nervous-system responses and compassionately making sense of protective strategies that have developed over time. Therapy with me is largely focused on what is happening in the room in the here and now. It is paced to support safety and integration rather than pressure, performance or doing.
I work with adults seeking deeper self-understanding, emotional regulation, and more sustainable ways of relating to themselves and others.

I provide focused, effective, behavioral therapy for clients who are looking for an approach that is warm, grounded, and practical. With 15 years of experience in the mental health field, and a background as a paramedic, I specialize in working with clients who are really struggling and for whom other approach's haven't worked. While I have a general practice, I work with lots of folks with attachment difficulties like BPD, and anxiety disorders that are severely impacting their lives like OCD.

Simone Merkl Marriage Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
My mission is to inspire a deeper appreciation, emotional connection, intimacy, and attraction in your relationship.
Many couples still love each other deeply but find themselves feeling disconnected, misunderstood, stuck in conflict, or unsure how to find their way back to each other. Over time, unresolved hurts, stress, resentment, and emotional distance can slowly replace the closeness and desire that once brought you together.
The good news: relationships can heal.
As a Relationship Attraction Specialist and couples counsellor, I help partners rebuild emotional safety, strengthen attachment, restore intimacy, and rediscover the connection and attraction they desire. I believe attraction is not only about chemistry — it is deeply connected to feeling emotionally safe, valued, understood, respected, and chosen by your partner.
I specialize in relationship challenges and help couples understand the deeper patterns underneath conflict, including attachment styles, emotional triggers, communication differences, relationship polarity, and the wounds from the past that may be affecting the present.
My approach integrates leading evidence-based couples therapy methods, including the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Relational Life Therapy (RLT), Nonviolent Communication (NVC), and the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy. These approaches provide couples with practical tools, deeper insight, and skills to create meaningful and lasting change.
It is incredibly rewarding to witness couples heal old wounds, improve their attachment, and begin treating each other as collaborators instead of adversaries. Together, we work toward creating a relationship where both partners feel seen, heard, validated, desired, and deeply connected.
How Can Relationship Counselling Help?
• Rediscover love, empathy, appreciation, and emotional connection in your relationship
• Feel seen, heard, and validated instead of feeling blamed, criticized, or abandoned
• Create emotional safety and learn how to become a team instead of opponents
• Understand how attachment patterns and past experiences influence your current relationship
• Learn how relationship polarity, intimacy, and emotional connection influence attraction in long-term relationships
• Rebuild trust after emotional or physical betrayal
• Move beyond anger, defensiveness, and control by connecting with deeper emotions and needs
• Develop healthy boundaries and make choices that create more peace and stability
• Learn communication and conflict-resolution skills that strengthen every relationship in your life
One of the most important parts of a healthy relationship is understanding your partner’s inner world — including what happens when they become emotionally flooded.
As the Gottman Institute teaches, couples create stronger bonds when they learn to understand, respond to, and care for each other’s emotional experiences.
Your relationship does not have to stay stuck in the same patterns.
Together, we can transform your relationship:
From conflict to connection.
From distance to desire.
From struggle to strength.

Jonah Fialkow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Although many people prefer the connection of in-person therapy, online therapy offers many unexpected benefits. As a clinician, I appreciate getting to see people in the comfort of their own home and meet their pets. Sometimes seeing someone in their own space helps me understand things about them that I otherwise would not. It can be a helpful tool for busy people to get to therapy appointments regularly without worrying about travel time - I often see busy professionals over lunch. For people in remote locations, it can make specialized therapy more accessible.

Rawda Tomoum
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, CGT
Our wounds show up in our relationships — social, professional, intimate, and even with ourselves. Through our work together, I can help you address these wounds at their core so that your healing is deep and profound and leaves a lasting impact. Life will always throw curve balls at you, but you can be stronger and happier from the inside, out — not just on the surface. I've helped many struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, 1st or 2nd-generation immigrant experience, relationship conflict, communication challenges, rebuilding trust and connection, and the complexities of multicultural relationships and the different in-law dynamics and expectations. And if you're not sure what the issue is exactly, I can help you figure that out. I aim to make therapy as impactful as possible while keeping the experience as light as possible by blending warmth with a directness and practicality. We can work in English or Arabic - with an Egyptian flavor!

Psykhe Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP
Video counselling offers a secure and convenient alternative to in-person sessions. It allows you to connect with your therapist face-to-face through a private video platform, from the comfort of your own space.
This option can be especially helpful if you have a busy schedule, live outside our local area, or prefer the flexibility of meeting without the need to travel. It also provides continuity of care when in-person sessions wouldn't be an option. Many clients find video sessions just as effective and meaningful as in-person therapy.
