Jaswir Dhillon
Registered Psychotherapist, MA
You may feel stuck in patterns that keep repeating in your relationships, your sense of self, or the way you respond to life’s challenges. Early experiences, attachment patterns, and intergenerational trauma can shape how we relate to ourselves and others, often in ways we may not fully understand. I work with individuals and couples to explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, creating space for greater self-understanding, healing, and meaningful change.

Rebecca Bonham
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, MPS, MTS
Each of us is on a sacred journey of becoming – to know and understand ourselves and the stories we find ourselves in. I am passionate about companioning with people to explore the hills and valleys of their life experiences and supporting them as they seek new ways to understand and identify themselves within their own stories.

Kaylei Murray
Registered Psychotherapist, CRPO, ACTA
Reconnection is at the heart of my work.
Many of the individuals and couples I support are thoughtful, capable, and high-functioning, yet find themselves feeling disconnected, whether from themselves or within their relationships. Often, this disconnection doesn’t happen all at once. It develops gradually through patterns that once served a purpose, but over time begin to create distance, pressure, or uncertainty.
My approach to therapy is grounded, relational, and attachment-informed. I focus on helping clients understand the underlying patterns shaping their thoughts, emotions, and interactions, not to assign blame, but to create clarity. This includes exploring what is being said, as well as what may be harder to access or express.
I aim to create a space that feels both safe and engaged. Alongside attunement and support, I offer gentle challenge to help clients move beyond familiar patterns and toward more intentional ways of relating. In our work together, we slow things down. We make sense of emotional responses, attachment dynamics, and survival strategies, so that change feels meaningful and sustainable, rather than forced Whether you are seeking individual support or navigating challenges within your relationship, therapy can be a space to reconnect, rebuild trust, and move forward with greater awareness.

My goal is to provide truly helpful, evidence-based psychological assessment and counselling for adult individuals and couples.
