Meera Duncan
Counsellor/Therapist, Author, Registered Counselling Therapist, Registered Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapist, & Addictions Counsellor
Living with ADHD can be challenging and affect every part of your life. I can help you navigate this diagnosis and offer tools and strategies to make life easier. I have worked with children and adults with ADHD for over a decade and have witnessed how life changing hypnotherapy can be when included in an individuals treatment plan. Releasing the stress, anxiety, and self judgment sometimes felt with this diagnosis has a tremendous impact on a person’s quality of life. If you are looking for therapy that has more to offer than the traditional techniques used, contact me today. I offer counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy, and clinical hypnosis and hypnotherapy to help you achieve your goals and live your best life.

ADHD is sometimes hard to identify and change. But it typically comes as a relief to understand yourself better and realize the challenges you have been having are not your fault. I can teach you practical skills to overcome this challenge.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, RPC, MPCC
I define myself as a “neurodiversity affirming therapist” and feel absolutely honoured to work with neurodiverse individuals and couples. This means I understand and work with autism, ADHD and other neurodiverse groups through the lens of neuroscience. Autism is associated with differences in the brain which result in a divergence from neurotypical standards, in terms of how brains filter and make sense of information. I endeavour to help clients shed misplaced humiliation and a sense of failure by becoming conscious of and removing the notion that ‘typical’ traits are superior. It is the neurodiverse individuals in our society that move humanity along.

Shannon Loewen
Psychologist, M.Sc. Counselling Psychology
Managing the symptoms of ADHD can be difficult. We can discuss tools and strategies for improving focus and task management and for managing symptoms like rejection sensitivity. We can also explore the loss and grief that so often accompanies living with ADHD in a task-orientated world.

Julie McLennan
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CCPCPR
ADHD has a big impact on how people operate in society. There are many strengths to it but also some huge pitfalls. If you find it gets in your way, some psychoeducation around your struggles can go a long way towards softening their impact on communication, productivity and relationships.

Forouz Salari
Registered Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
It's not easy living with ADHD in systems, institutions and communities that were historically built by and for neuro-typical people. Living with neurodivergence means that others struggle to understand, empathize with, and extend grace and compassion towards you. They either do not know about, do not think about, cannot imagine, or refuse to offer you the types of accommodations that would support you to show up, engage and contribute to the best of your abilities. This can make you feel further misunderstood, isolated and marginalized, and reduce your access to resources and opportunities for care and growth.
Let's work together to:
Explore, better understand & accept your unique strengths & challenges as someone living with ADHD.
Learn & apply new techniques & approaches to address some of the executive functioning challenges that come with ADHD (including planning, organization, and time-management).
Learn effective ways of managing your stress to reduce the intensity of the symptoms of ADHD.
Create doable personalized plans to feel more balanced, well, fulfilled and engaged in your work / studies, relationships, and personal life.
Learn about and self-advocate for academic & workplace accommodations that can reduce your experiences of overwhelm & stress, and set you up for success.
