Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood, respected, and able to be yourself. My style is warm, thoughtful, and collaborative, with space for both reflection and honest conversation. I don’t see people as problems to be fixed; I’m interested in understanding how your experiences have shaped the ways you protect yourself, relate to others, and move through the world. Together, we can slow things down, notice what’s happening beneath the surface, and make room for changes that feel meaningful and sustainable. I bring mindfulness, somatic awareness, and parts work into sessions, while adapting the process to who you are and what feels most useful to you.

Rhoda Lalog
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Therapy can be a space to slow down and understand what’s happening beneath the surface. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, grief, life transitions, relationships, identity, and belonging. Many of the people I support are thoughtful, capable people who appear to be managing well but feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or exhausted inside.
You may find yourself carrying a lot, being hard on yourself, struggling to set boundaries, or wondering why familiar patterns keep showing up despite how much you understand about yourself.
My approach is compassionate and curious. Rather than seeing these experiences as something that needs to be fixed, therapy can help us understand what is happening within you and create more space for choice, balance, and a different relationship with yourself.
Culture, family, identity, and lived experience are also welcome in our work together. You do not have to separate these parts of your experience from what brings you to therapy.

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.

Kaylei Murray
Registered Psychotherapist, CRPO, ACTA
Reconnection is at the heart of my work.
Many of the individuals and couples I support are thoughtful, capable, and high-functioning, yet find themselves feeling disconnected, whether from themselves or within their relationships. Often, this disconnection doesn’t happen all at once. It develops gradually through patterns that once served a purpose, but over time begin to create distance, pressure, or uncertainty.
My approach to therapy is grounded, relational, and attachment-informed. I focus on helping clients understand the underlying patterns shaping their thoughts, emotions, and interactions, not to assign blame, but to create clarity. This includes exploring what is being said, as well as what may be harder to access or express.
I aim to create a space that feels both safe and engaged. Alongside attunement and support, I offer gentle challenge to help clients move beyond familiar patterns and toward more intentional ways of relating. In our work together, we slow things down. We make sense of emotional responses, attachment dynamics, and survival strategies, so that change feels meaningful and sustainable, rather than forced Whether you are seeking individual support or navigating challenges within your relationship, therapy can be a space to reconnect, rebuild trust, and move forward with greater awareness.
