Elliott Kemmet
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, BSW, RSW
*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* In my practice, I prioritize creating a supportive and relaxed environment where therapy is a highlight of your week, not something you dread. I aim to make each session feel like a meaningful conversation rather than a clinical procedure, where you can laugh and heal in equal measure. My approach is to foster a space where deep reflection leads to clarity and peace, encouraging you to explore your thoughts and emotions openly.
I value a therapeutic experience that allows you to be your authentic self, supported by warmth and non-judgment. Each session is designed to empower you, facilitating personal growth and emotional healing through genuine connection and empathy. Join me in a setting committed to nurturing your wellness journey with intention and care.

Laura Romero
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych
What has become clearer to me over the years is that we all have the ability to make changes in our lives - to move us in the direction we wish to go - but sometimes it can be difficult to know or understand the steps we need to take to get there. To create the changes we want to see and experience, we need to commit to doing the work which includes opening ourselves up to the possibility of shifting our mindset, like looking into a kaleidoscope. The first look into a kaleidoscope shows an intricate and layered world of colours and shapes, and with a twist of the mechanism, a brand new picture is created, bringing with it the prospect of new possibilities.

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.

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.

Kayla Schofield
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Therapy can be the stepping stone one needs to get over life hurdles. I meet clients where they are at and encourage each individual to get curious with their lives. Dig up the patterns and beliefs that are no longer working for them and decide what to do about it. I work with all people who present with many different issues . Let's set up a free consultation and go from there.
