I'm a Registered Social Worker and my practice focus is providing counselling to women going through life's stages and transitions that are unique to us.

My lived experience going through a divorce and raising my two incredible sons as a single parent put my practice focus towards women navigating divorce and single parenting, so that they don't have to go through it alone and know that as a counsellor I have lived experience to empathize and understand the unique challenges you are facing. Woman face so many things, while we are doing and being everything to everyone else, that it is easy to lose ourself.

Barbara (Barchi) Fojkar
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCC
My approach to counselling is holistic, honouring the whole person: mind, body, heart, and spirit, rather than focusing only on symptoms.
Having lived in Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and Canada, I understand personally what it can mean to navigate different cultures, identities, and ways of belonging. I have had the privilege of working with people from European, North American, Asian, African, and multicultural backgrounds, across different ages and stages of life. I welcome the unique culture, story, and perspective each person brings into the room.

Kim Silverthorn - Tacit Knowledge
Counsellor/Therapist, B.A., M.P.C.C., C.T.
Life can be hard sometimes and we all find ourselves needing a little support in those difficult moments. Reaching out is often the hardest part of the process. Tacit Knowledge can help - we offer individual and couples counselling to teens and to adults. All of our services are available in-person and online - and are available to everyone, all across Canada. I am Kim Silverthorn BA, MPCC, CT - I am the owner and primary therapist at Tacit, and my office is located in Beaumont.
I offer a variety of traditional and holistic counselling supports for adults and for teens/youth. I provide an empathetic and confidential atmosphere in my counselling office, as I assist individuals, couples and family’s in addressing some of the more emotionally difficult issues in their lives.
I also offer Neurofeedback Training - on its own or in combination with regular talk-therapy sessions (as desired by the client). Neurofeedback Training is an excellent type of support designed for managing stress, past trauma, chronic illness, concussion, ADHD, depression, racing thoughts, sleep issues, etc . It helps a person change their brainwave patterns so resiliency and safety is created and imbalance is neutralized (no electrical impulses are used - dynamical Neurofeedback is completely non-intrusive).
I also provide Professional Development Training to various agencies and organizations, helping staff enhance the skills they use in their own workplaces on a daily basis. And I provide excellent community based programming/courses for those in the general public who may not yet be able to access the training that I offer, through their places of employment.
I believe in providing my clients with the support they need on an individual basis - as part of your family - and/or with your bigger work team. I get to know you by first understanding the challenges you are facing from your perspective – and I help you come from a place of confidence and strength as you overcome those challenges in a successful and healthy way.

Narrative
Colin Hayward
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd
My goal in therapy is to create a space where you can say the things you haven’t felt able to say anywhere else. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who carry a lot on their own. They may talk things through with friends or family at times, but often hesitate to go too far because they don’t want to burden the people around them. In therapy, you have a place where you can speak freely and be fully heard.
Clients often tell me they’re surprised by how much they have to say once they begin. They may have spent years thinking through challenges in their lives, but haven’t had the opportunity to explore those thoughts out loud in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. My role isn’t to criticize the past, rush to conclusions, or tell you what decisions you should make. Instead, I focus on helping you understand your experiences, clarify what matters most to you, and find practical ways forward that feel authentic and sustainable.
I see therapy as a collaborative process that helps you better understand both your strengths and the challenges that come with them. Many qualities that serve us well in life—like sensitivity, dedication, or a strong work ethic—can also create difficulties when they become overwhelming or unbalanced. Together, we explore how these qualities shape your experiences, identify the patterns that may be holding you back, and build on the strengths that can help you move forward.
Sometimes this work involves learning specific tools or skills. Other times it involves taking the time to reflect, share important stories, and gain new perspective. Either way, my aim is to help you uncover resources within yourself that may have been overlooked and to support you in navigating difficult moments with greater clarity and confidence.
I tailor my approach to each person I work with because every individual’s experiences and goals are different. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, OCD, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to slow down, reflect, and make meaningful progress.
