Andrea Laznik Amit
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA in clinical psychology
I offer a personalized approach to therapy based on psychoanalytic psychotherapy. After getting to know you we can decide on your goals for change. We explore in depth patterns that may be an obstacle to your growth so that you can decide whether to change them( or not). This approach is a process we go through together and the change is long standing. You will have a better understanding of your deep self and better control of where you want to go as well as better connection with others.

The Art Of Healing
Marriage and Family Therapist, RTC, CT
What makes my therapy practice unique is the way I blend clinical skill with real-life understanding. I don’t just offer techniques—I create a space where you feel genuinely seen, understood, and safe to be yourself. My approach is mindful, trauma-informed, and grounded in emotional awareness and nervous system regulation, helping you not only process what you’ve been through, but also build the tools to move forward with clarity and confidence. As someone who deeply values growth, resilience, and self-connection, I walk alongside my clients in a way that feels supportive, empowering, and real.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for something to shift—even if you can’t fully explain what that is—this is your sign to reach out. You don’t have to wait until things get worse to invest in yourself. Therapy can be the space where you slow down, reconnect, and start creating a life that feels more aligned, peaceful, and intentional.

Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
The reason clients return time after time, and year after year, is due to the fact that I've made it a priority to build a strong connection with them. I listen, I guide them when they ask, and I'm honest with my feedback. Simply, they trust me. and nothing could be more important to me or to them. And because my work has always felt like both an honour and a gift, I value the opportunity of being brought into the emotional lives of my clients where I can offer them the kind of safe space they may not have ever experienced previously.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
With over 20 years' counselling experience let me help you find the life you wish for. I am the proud mother of 4 sons (now adult) and grandmother to 8 (a mixture of girls and boys)! In addition to counselling I’ve worked in hospital administration, construction, business, advertising/marketing and farming. I also love to learn. Neurodiversity explains how our brains work and affect our behaviour and enables us to use tools to level the playing field so that you get the absolute most from your life. Explore the connection between your reactions and your past and the strong connection between the body, the psyche and the brain (including polyvagal work). (I also ballroom-dance at every opportunity!)
