Rebekah Hart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MSc(a), MFT
As a psychotherapist, couple and family therapist, ecotherapist and drama therapist, I work with couples adults and groups at diverse stages of life. My work is systemic in that I see individuals as impacted by, and interconnected within, larger networks of relationships and social systems. The values underlying my practice are rooted in a long-term dedication to social justice, my belief in creativity as a healing force, and my love and respect for the natural world. Seeking help takes courage, and no one approach works for everyone. I work collaboratively, and tailor my approach to each unique person.
My work as a therapist is informed by attachment theory, a respect for the natural intelligence of emotions and the body, and an understanding of trauma and human development. My background includes advanced training in Family Systems, EFT Couple Therapy, Ecotherapy, Hakomi, and Drama Therapy. I specialize in working with climate distress and eco-anxiety.
I believe that, given the right support, each individual has the wisdom and resources within them to move towards positive change and wholeness. I welcome clients of all genders, sexual orientations, ages and cultural backgrounds, as well as couples and families in traditional and non-traditional configurations.

Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
FREE 50-min consultation + same week spots. Share what is going on for you right now, without any pressure to commit.
As the days get longer and life begins to shift, you might have a sense that something is ready to change. You may feel uncertain, stuck, burned out, or disconnected. Therapy can help you make sense of what you are experiencing and create room for something new.
My approach is emotionally attuned, relational, and compassionate. I support clients in understanding experiences, reconnecting with their bodies, and finding greater clarity in what feels meaningful. I invite you to reach out for a complimentary consultation and see if this space feels like the right fit for you.

Liz Dean
Registered Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W
Feeling alone? I would love to support you with therapy personalized to you and your unique needs. Sometimes we find ourselves feeling disconnected, insecure, anxious, angry, sad and exhausted - at ourselves, the world, our family and friends. We don't know what to do about it and it can make us feel utterly alone. Together we can find a path forward so you can move more easily and authentically through life. I work with people experiencing struggles like self-doubt, loneliness, anxiety, depression, ADHD, chronic pain or illness, emotional dysregulation and difficulties in relationships or new stages of life.
My style is direct and genuinely non-judgemental. You will hear me say “that makes sense because…” a lot. My goal is to create a space where you can understand what is going on in your life. Because when we understand and accept where we are, we can begin to see a different path for our future - and begin to like ourselves and our lives life more.

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.

Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
I deeply enjoy offering psychotherapy because it provides a powerful and accessible medium, where we can share and uncover, allowing me to assist people to live a meaningful and fulfilling life with with joy, resilience and growth. It’s an incredible privilege to create a safe and compassionate space where someone feels seen, heard and understood, often for the first time. Being part of a journey where individuals uncover their inner strengths, navigate challenges and gain a deeper understanding of themselves, reduce their symptoms and address problems is profoundly rewarding. I have 25 years of experience in psychotherapy (with PhD) and my approach is built on gentleness, openness, acceptance and curiosity, and together we find ways to disentangle, understand, manage, and change unhelpful patterns, overwhelming feelings, challenging conditions, or past experiences that can hold us entrapped. I recommend an initial consultation to get to know each other. I pursue a multimodal therapy approach and have extensive knowledge in dealing with psychological, social, relational, family and professional problems. My specialisations include, among others:
• Stress management, coping strategies and burnout prevention
• Reactions to any stress, including relational, social, familial, personal and professional
• Anxiety disorders and related symptoms
• Depressions and related challenges around mood
• Challenges in professional life, especially during career changes and in leadership positions
• Adjustment disorders, losses, separation, trauma and other life changes
• Problems in interpersonal relationships, partner and family challenges
I prefer to work in an active and collaborative way. Together we find ways to understand and change some aspects in your life, in sustainable ways. Please feel free to reach out and write to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you.
