Tanisha Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist
With over ten years of experience working with individuals, families and children, I have formed an in-depth understanding of how to support people when they are struggling with life in general and mental health concerns. I understand the complexity of the mind and I am able to help people who often have complex lives. I am passionate about working with people to pursue complete well-being. I work with individuals online and in-person at our Guelph office location.
I provide a compassionate, open, culturally affirming, and empowering environment to clients. With life's journey the challenges we endure are inevitable. I know how to help people with these challenges. I have extensive experience working with individuals from small children to adults focusing on perinatal, ADHD, OCD, learning disabilities, autism, depression, anxiety, race-based trauma, relationships difficulties, self-esteem, and other mental health matters.
I offer therapeutic counseling using an integrative approach. I practice from a goal-oriented, person-centered, evidence-based, and solution-focused framework. I combine narrative therapy and CBT into my therapeutic relationship as a collaborative process working with clients. I have found that my lived experience has helped me value each client's uniqueness which when combined with my training and experience leads to positive change for the people I work with.

I am a registered psychotherapist who draws from a variety of different approaches. I am a mother of 4 children. I love to read, go hiking, meet new people, and traveling. I appreciate the steps that you are taking towards change and growth. I personally understand what it is like to come from a place of needing and asking for help.

It would to be an honor for me to help you re-write new chapters in your story. I provide a 15 minute free consultation in which you can determine if I am the right fit for you.

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.

Nakasha Ogbonna
Registered Social Worker, RSW
I am a dual province (Ontario & Alberta) registered social worker specializing in mental health. Before entering private practice, I served as the University of Calgary’s Mental Health Consultant where I was the primary on-campus therapeutic support for staff, faculty, and post doctorates. I now work in private practice supporting individuals, couples, families, and groups. I also have specialized training and experience working with first responders and their families in dealing with operational stress injuries. My breadth of experience includes work with patients accessing community public health as well as school aged youth in primary and secondary school divisions.
Life is hard enough. Therapy does not need to be overly stressful. For this reason I take a relaxed approach, infusing light humour while discussing your deepest thoughts and concerns. I aim for your time with me to be one of the best parts of your week, because it is where you know you can be your authentic self with a warm and non-judgemental supporter.
Therapy can work for anyone when there is a strong relationship between the client and therapist. For this reason I prioritize building a strong therapeutic partnership with my clients that is grounded on transparency, empathy, and unconditional support. Think of me as a GPS for your mind. You pick the destination and I’ll show you how to get there.
