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.

Theresa Rybchinski
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Sensorimotor Psychotherapist, SP
I understand how overwhelming it can be when traditional therapy doesn’t fully help you. My approach focuses on helping you reconnect with yourself in a safe and empowering way.
For over ten years, I have studied how stress and trauma affect the nervous system. I find ways to restore balance and ease. I know healing is not the same for everyone. I work with each person to create a personalized, body-based approach that helps change survival patterns into thriving ones.
I believe you are not your trauma, anxiety, or pain. You have a strong ability to heal. My role is to help you tap into that ability, break old patterns, and build a life where you feel more at home in your body and more connected to yourself.
If you are ready to explore a new way of healing that honors your body, mind, and nervous system, I would love to support you on this journey. I offer a complimentary 15 minute consultation call to see if I am a good fit for you.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
When everything looks right but something still feels off, somatic, trauma-focused therapy is where the work begins.
You already recognize the pattern. Understanding it hasn't closed the gap between knowing and feeling, because the real shift happens in the body, not the story.
Maybe you've done therapy already, and you still don't have what you came for: the ability to make a decision without arguing with yourself, to feel present in your own life, to sleep without your mind still running.
What this supports, over time, is a slow and gentle return to aliveness.

Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
Who in your life truly listens to you? I base my practice in deep listening. I believe in your own inner owl: the innate wisdom you have but just can't find right now. My role is to provide a safe, gentle, non-judgmental and confidential space to help you get in touch with your wisdom so you can live your fullest life.
I've come to believe that the purpose of suffering is to help us better understand ourselves, our relationships and life itself. I would like to help you break through to what life has in store for you next. Fundamentally, there's nothing wrong with us; at difficult points in our lives, we all developed coping strategies that helped us survive but now, these strategies get in the way. Let's work together to facilitate your healing and growth.
