Shannon MacGregor
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, RTC, MTC, RCS, NARM Therapist
My goal as a Transpersonal Therapist, is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns, or negative perceptions, that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
With over 20 years' counselling experience let me help you find the life you wish for. I am the proud mother of 4 sons (now adult) and grandmother to 8 (a mixture of girls and boys)! In addition to counselling I’ve worked in hospital administration, construction, business, advertising/marketing and farming. I also love to learn. Neurodiversity explains how our brains work and affect our behaviour and enables us to use tools to level the playing field so that you get the absolute most from your life. Explore the connection between your reactions and your past and the strong connection between the body, the psyche and the brain (including polyvagal work). (I also ballroom-dance at every opportunity!)

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Caregiving can be deeply meaningful, but it can also be exhausting in ways that are hard to explain. You may find yourself becoming the decision-maker for a parent or partner - stepping into a reversal of roles while navigating an uncertain future. This comes with emotions you didn’t expect: guilt, anger, fear, even resentment. None of them mean you love any less.
Maybe caregiving isn’t your story. Maybe it’s a loss you’re still carrying, burnout that crept up while you were busy being reliable, or an identity shifting under your feet. Grief doesn’t always wait for a physical loss. We grieve people who are still with us, versions of ourselves we’ve outgrown, lives we thought we’d be living by now.
Naming what’s shared can help you feel less alone. Honouring what’s yours is how you feel understood. That’s the balance I’ve built my practice around - evidence-based psychotherapy, attuned to your circumstances, your relationships, and your lived experience

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Do you find yourself getting overwhelmed and overstimulated easily? Tend to overthink or feel anxious? Or perhaps you’ve been called “too sensitive” or emotional? Have you ever noticed that you take longer to process things, and need more downtime than others? If any of this resonates, you, like myself, might be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), and I’m so glad you’re here.
I understand how it feels to process things more deeply, to have a strong desire for purpose and meaning in the world and to connect to a spiritual practice. My mission is to help guide other sensitive souls embrace their sensitivity as a gift, and to step into their most authentic, confident and aligned version of themselves. I want to help you work with it rather than against it. I provide counselling for individuals and couples with a wide range of challenges including: anxiety, depression, healing trauma, relationship difficulties, spiritual/religious exploration, emotional regulation, life transitions, self esteem/self worth, disordered eating, personal growth and struggles related to neurodivergence (HSP, Autism, ASHD). We all need someone who embodies the phrase, “I see you, and I care”, and I’m honoured to have the opportunity to be that for my clients. Your inner experience matters.
I believe the world is a better place when more deep feeling, sensitive people feel comfortable and safe in their skin and I can’t wait to support you in this process. This work takes courage, trust and commitment, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to get curious about your inner world, and to start focusing your energy on your own well-being and healing, head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation. I offer in person, online and walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you.

Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Whatever happened to you, something covered the authentic you. Let's find it.
You've been managing. Keeping it together. Showing up for everyone who needs you, handling what needs to be handled, and quietly wondering why it still feels like something is missing or wrong.
Maybe you've survived something hard. Maybe you can't quite name what's weighing on you, but you feel it. Maybe life looks fine from the outside, and that almost makes it harder to explain.
I became a therapist because I know what it feels like to need support and not receive it. I also know what it feels like to finally find it, and how much that changes everything. My own experience with trauma, addiction, and recovery shapes how I show up: with genuine warmth, without judgment, and with a deep belief that people can move forward no matter how stuck they feel right now.
I work with an integrative, person-centered approach and view anxiety, depression, and addiction by looking at underlying trauma. I want to find the root with you and heal the problem, not just manage symptoms.
Of course, how struggles show up is different for everyone, I don't believe there can be one-size-fits-all solutions. I listen to your story, understand you through how you survived, and work with you on the patterns that keep showing up. I want to truly listen and help you ask, and answer, "What do you really want now?"
If you've been waiting for a sign to reach out, this is it. I'd love to hear from you.
