Harness of Joy Psychotherapy Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RCSW EMDRIA Approved Consultant & Credit Provider
Our Shared Vision & Purpose
At Harness of Joy Psychotherapy Services Inc., we believe that profound healing occurs when advanced clinical expertise meets deeply attuned, human-centered care. Founded on the conviction that no two journeys toward wellness are identical, our practice stands as a sanctuary for individuals, first responders, and mental health professionals seeking to move beyond surface-level coping and cultivate enduring, transformative growth.
Our team brings together highly skilled, master’s-level Registered Clinical Social Workers (MSW, RCSW) with extensive backgrounds in neurobiology, trauma recovery, and evidence-based clinical practices. Bound by a shared commitment to clinical excellence, continuous learning, and absolute ethical integrity, we view our work not merely as a service, but as a sacred partnership. We honor the courage it takes to step into therapy, and we hold space for every story with warmth, cultural humility, and unwavering respect.
What We Stand For
Holistic & Neurobiologically Grounded Care: We recognize the intricate connection between mind, body, and nervous system. Our clinical approach integrates diverse, proven modalities—including EMDR, Somatic Regulation, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies, and Relational Care—tailored seamlessly to the unique needs of each individual.
Empowerment & Autonomy: True healing is not about fixing what is broken; it is about reclaiming your innate resilience, agency, and authentic voice. We walk alongside you as compassionate guides, offering the tools and framework for you to navigate life’s complexities with confidence.
Specialized Support for High-Acuity Roles: We hold a deep dedication to supporting those who serve others. Our practice provides confidential, culturally competent care for first responders, healthcare professionals, and leaders bearing the heavy mental load of frontline, high-responsibility roles.
Advancing the Standard of Mental Healthcare: Beyond direct client support, we are passionately invested in the strength of the broader therapeutic community. Through accredited clinical consultation, mentorship, and advanced professional training, we actively contribute to elevating trauma-informed care across North America.
Our Core Purpose
Living with vitality, balance, and genuine peace should not feel out of reach. Whether guiding an individual through the weight of trauma, supporting a family through transition, or mentoring fellow clinicians toward professional mastery, Harness of Joy Psychotherapy Services Inc. remains dedicated to illuminating the path forward—helping our clients and community anchor in resilience, discover authentic connection, and harness enduring joy.

Nicholas Breitenbach
Psychologist, R. Psych, CST, MA, BA
I offer a warm, straightforward, and non-judgmental space where you can talk about the things that are often hardest to say out loud - sex, intimacy, conflict, trust, desire, and the patterns that keep showing up in your relationships. My approach is trauma-informed and affirming, blending clinical skill with real-life practicality (and the occasional well-timed bit of humor). Whether you’re coming in as an individual or as a couple, we’ll work together to build clarity, confidence, and connection, so your relationships can feel safer, healthier, and more satisfying.

Rachel Bradley
Psychologist, MA, Registered Psychologist
My practice is grounded in authenticity, depth, and genuine human connection. Clients choose to work with me because I offer more than just a standard 50-minute session — I provide thoughtful, individualized care where they feel seen, heard, and understood. As a psychologist and private practice owner, I am intentional about keeping my caseload manageable so clients are never just a number in a system.
I bring warmth, honesty, and appropriate humor into the room, balanced with clinical precision and clear direction. Clients often tell me they appreciate my ability to challenge them while still making them feel safe. I am goal-oriented and collaborative, helping people move from insight to action rather than staying stuck in endless processing.
Whether working with individuals or couples, I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship that becomes the foundation for meaningful change. Clients come to me because they want depth, accountability, and real progress — not surface-level conversations.

Jennifer Morley
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA, BSc, BA, CCPA
It’s not easy being human right now. Especially when you’re carrying anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, or the quiet exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for everyone else. I work with individuals and couples who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves or the people they care about, and who are ready for meaningful change.
My approach to therapy is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, helping clients build insight, emotional regulation, and healthier patterns in relationships. I place strong emphasis on safety, trust, and understanding the whole person, not just the symptoms that brought them to therapy.
I have extensive experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, high stress, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you don’t have to perform, explain away your feelings, or have it all figured out. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and work toward greater clarity, connection, and emotional ease.
