Robin Engen-Johnson
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, RCC, CBIS
My goal at Robin's Nest is to provide a safe place for people to land when they want to work on themselves, but aren't sure where to start. I work with people to hatch new solutions to rebuild and recover. I have over 25 yrs experience working in a variety of settings, and have worked extensively with concussion and brain injury as a complex case manager. This allows me to work collaboratively with someone recognizing that every part of their life is impacted by mental health concerns, substance use, or concussion/brain injury. We explore impacts on daily functioning and interpersonal relationships, and build resiliency and strengthen coping together. I walk along side my clients believing that they are the true experts of their life and know what is best for them. Sometimes it takes some exploratory and supportive conversations to create meaningful and achievable goals for success. I welcome people from all walks of life and experiences and feel honored when my clients allow me to be a part of the journey to improved wellness and growth.

Jonah Fialkow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
I specialize in working with people struggling with ADHD, anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. I have deep empathy for the experience of anxiety and relationship struggles, and I know how isolating and overwhelming it can feel. I know that anxiety often comes from a place of just wanting to get it right, and I'm skilled in working through the underlying issues that contribute to anxiety so that you can feel confident and secure instead of frozen and stalled.
I understand how anxiety affects all stages of relationships (including finding a partner in the first place) and I support my clients to move from feeling lonely and disconnected to confident and secure. In addition to my individual work, I offer evidence-based couples' counselling using the Gottman method, which goes beyond just communication skills and gives practical strategies to create real change.

Samantha Diminutto
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS-AT
I'm passionate about working with fellow ADHDers, especially through expressive and creative means. It's not easy for everyone to verbalize big emotions, so I often use art therapy techniques to help people improve their mental health. Neurodivergent people can benefit hugely by getting professional support from someone who gets it. Together, we can help you to better understand your unique wiring, with improving your communication and relationship skills and with self actualizing.

Amy Chen
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying), MEd, CCPA
We will work together to discover your goals for therapy, explore what ‘feeling better’ means for you, and create a path to get you there. My collaborative approach integrates principles and techniques from many therapy modalities to find the approach that fits with your needs. Change can be daunting, but starting therapy doesn’t need to be! Whether you’re considering therapy or just want to learn more about the therapeutic process, I encourage you to call or email me for a free consultation. It would be a privilege to support you in your journey of healing and growth.

Inner Wisdom Counselling and Art Therapy (Tracey Gramm)
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, EXAT, FOT, CDP
I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor serving Surrey, Cloverdale, Langley, South Surrey and White Rock. I also offer online services for remote clients. I work with children, teens and adults using art therapy, somatic based and body-centred modalities. I work more specifically with the Expressive Arts, Somatic Experiencing and Focusing Oriented Art Therapy – as an alternative to therapy predominantly focused on talking or verbal expression. I'm here to help you if you are invested in making a difference in your life through striving for personal growth and releasing old patterns of behavior that no longer serve you. To give you an idea of what its like to work with me - I possess a natural curiosity about my clients and focus on uncovering human limitations, through personal awareness and insight. I am a sensitive soul, considerate of your comfort level, and don’t push too far, when its not welcome. I challenge you to try something new and outside the box that has great potential to heal the soul and connect you to your heart.
