My passion is helping those living in rural settings access counselling services. I provide a non-judgemental, compassionate space to build a strong therapeutic relationship that empowers you to explore what brings you to counselling.

Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Daniel endured prolonged trauma in early childhood; yet, through a deep and courageous healing process, he emerged with a profound understanding of suffering and adversity in others. With the support of compassionate individuals, he stabilized his life and gained meaningful insight into the roots of his struggles. Over time, he learned to navigate and resolve these challenges—mentally, emotionally, and behaviorally—while learning how to prevent further harm and ultimately, how to flourish.
Drawing from both his personal journey and extensive formal education, Daniel now provides effective counseling and therapy grounded in evidence-based practices. His work is deeply informed by lived experience and professional expertise, allowing him to meet clients with empathy, clarity, and practical support.
Daniel is known for his humility and gentle presence, yet he brings a clear and steady firmness when needed. As a skilled and committed therapist, he is deeply invested in his clients’ well-being—helping them feel safe, understand their experiences, and build the inner freedom and resilience needed to create a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Alexia Wensing
Therapist, Hons. B.A., M.A., Registered Psychotherapist
Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, burnout, or a major life transition? Maybe you’re a high achiever, professional, or athlete navigating pressure, self-doubt, perfectionism, or the challenge of balancing demanding expectations. You may find yourself caught in cycles of overthinking, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from yourself. I provide a warm, collaborative, and conversational space where we can explore what’s beneath the surface while building practical, evidence-informed skills to create meaningful change. Together, we’ll work toward greater self-awareness, confidence, authenticity, and emotional resilience.
I support adults with navigating anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, ADHD, and self-esteem while building more authentic, fulfilling lives. I enjoy supporting professionals, high achievers, and those navigating life transitions, taking a whole-person, evidence- based approach, emphasizing the connection between physical and mental well-being.

Kim Silverthorn - Tacit Knowledge
Counsellor/Therapist, B.A., M.P.C.C., C.T.
Life can be hard sometimes and we all find ourselves needing a little support in those difficult moments. Reaching out is often the hardest part of the process. Tacit Knowledge can help - we offer individual and couples counselling to teens and to adults. All of our services are available in-person and online - and are available to everyone, all across Canada. I am Kim Silverthorn BA, MPCC, CT - I am the owner and primary therapist at Tacit, and my office is located in Beaumont.
I offer a variety of traditional and holistic counselling supports for adults and for teens/youth. I provide an empathetic and confidential atmosphere in my counselling office, as I assist individuals, couples and family’s in addressing some of the more emotionally difficult issues in their lives.
I also offer Neurofeedback Training - on its own or in combination with regular talk-therapy sessions (as desired by the client). Neurofeedback Training is an excellent type of support designed for managing stress, past trauma, chronic illness, concussion, ADHD, depression, racing thoughts, sleep issues, etc . It helps a person change their brainwave patterns so resiliency and safety is created and imbalance is neutralized (no electrical impulses are used - dynamical Neurofeedback is completely non-intrusive).
I also provide Professional Development Training to various agencies and organizations, helping staff enhance the skills they use in their own workplaces on a daily basis. And I provide excellent community based programming/courses for those in the general public who may not yet be able to access the training that I offer, through their places of employment.
I believe in providing my clients with the support they need on an individual basis - as part of your family - and/or with your bigger work team. I get to know you by first understanding the challenges you are facing from your perspective – and I help you come from a place of confidence and strength as you overcome those challenges in a successful and healthy way.

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.
