My lived experience going through a divorce and raising my two incredible sons as a single parent put my practice focus towards women navigating divorce and single parenting, so that they don't have to go through it alone and know that as a counsellor I have lived experience to empathize and understand the unique challenges you are facing. Woman face so many things, while we are doing and being everything to everyone else, that it is easy to lose ourself.

Laura Hall, Red Rock Psychology
Psychologist, MC, R.Psych
I offer comprehensive psychoeducational, ADHD, and gifted assessments. I approach assessments as a collaborative and thoughtful process, using evidence-based tools to better understand how you think, learn, and function. My goal is to provide not just answers, but meaningful insights and clear, practical recommendations that you can apply in everyday life. In therapy, I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to build emotional regulation and interpersonal skills, and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) to develop practical, goal-oriented strategies for change. I also integrate Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy to support present-moment awareness and stress reduction, along with Emotionally Focused Therapy to deepen emotional understanding and strengthen relationships. Whether I’m working with you in therapy or through an assessment, I strive to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Meera Duncan
Counsellor/Therapist, Honorary Doctorate Psychology, Counselling Therapist,Clinical Counselling Hypnotherapist, & Author
Counselling, Psychotherapy, and Clinical Hypnotherapy for children, teens, and adults. In-person and online therapy sessions available.
I’m excited to share a new offering within my practice that I’ve been thoughtfully developing: a series of small, in-person group therapy programs designed to provide a unique and supportive therapeutic experience. The next Group Therapy sessions begin in September.
These sessions are truly unique, integrating counselling and clinical hypnotherapy to support emotional well-being, personal growth, and stress reduction, allowing for both meaningful discussion and deeper work focused on calming the nervous system and activating the parasympathetic response.
These small group programs are designed for children, teens, and parents, with a focus on building emotional resilience, confidence, and practical tools for navigating life’s challenges within a supportive and structured environment.
Group therapy programs begin in the fall.
Spaces are limited, so please email Meera if interested in registration for one of the group therapy programs. There is also more information about each program on her clinic website. Spaces are intentionally limited to maintain a supportive group experience.
Reaching out for support takes courage. I am passionate about guiding individuals through meaningful change and helping them reconnect with their innate capacity for healing and growth.
My work integrates counselling, psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and clinical hypnotherapy to support both the conscious and subconscious mind. This approach allows for deeper emotional processing, insight, and lasting transformation by addressing patterns at their root.
Whether you are experiencing anxiety, stress, or a period of transition, I provide a grounded and supportive space to explore your experiences, develop greater self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change.
