Wayne Dewhurst
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CAMFT
When life or relationships become difficult, having someone who can help you step back, make sense of what is happening, and find a way forward can make a real difference. Wayne brings a down-to-earth and thoughtful approach to therapy. He believes meaningful change starts with being able to speak honestly about what is going on and feeling genuinely heard along the way. His goal is to help clients gain perspective, have more productive conversations, and develop practical ways to move forward. If something in your life or relationship isn't working the way you want it to, Wayne offers a place to start.

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.

Joel Mayer
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv
Specializing in anxiety and OCD! Do you feel stuck in your anxiety? Are intrusive thoughts or memories bothering you and getting in the way of your life? Perhaps your anxiety is also affecting your ability to be present and to function in the ways that you would like to in your relationships, work, or school life. Maybe you have coping strategies that used to work in the past but are no longer as effective for you now. If this is the case, do these issues then lead you to experiencing feelings of shame, wondering if there is something wrong with you, or questioning if things will ever get better?
You are not alone and change is possible! Anxious thoughts and feelings do not have to dictate your life and relationships. Together, we will work on learning skills to help you decrease your anxious feelings, get unstuck from your thoughts, develop more helpful coping strategies, and get back into the relationships and activities that matter to you.
My commitment is to come alongside you with compassion and care to offer direct, practical support that can make a difference now. I utilize a mindful, values-based approach to help you get back to meaningfully engaging in your life – whatever that looks like for you! I would be honored to work with you as you seek to live your life more fully.

Arne Pedersen - Hypnotherapy Victoria
Hypnotherapist, RCCH
I offer a calm, supportive, and intentional approach to therapy where you can slow down, feel heard, and begin responding to life with more clarity and choice. Our work focuses on emotional regulation, confidence, and rebuilding trust in yourself, while gently addressing the deeper habits and experiences that continue to shape your reactions.
Many people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and motivated, yet find themselves repeating familiar emotional or mental patterns despite their best intentions. Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in cycles of anxiety and self-doubt can be exhausting — especially when you’ve already put effort into change and still don’t feel steady or at ease.
This is a collaborative process for those who are ready to engage thoughtfully, reflect between sessions, and take meaningful steps toward lasting change.
