Kim Alscher
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RCC
As a highly sensitive therapist, I offer a warm, attuned presence and a deep capacity to notice the subtleties of a client’s emotional world. I tend to process information thoughtfully and reflectively, which allows for a patient, mindful approach that helps people feel genuinely seen, understood, and safe enough to explore vulnerable parts of their experience. Most of my therapeutic focus areas are intentionally chosen—they reflect experiences I understand personally and have spent years studying, integrating, and applying in meaningful ways. Because of this you can be assured that I am able to meet you where you are at, with sincerity and a dose of genuine humour, listening deeply, noticing subtle patterns and shifts, and encouraging steps forward in a gentle but challenging way.

Rebekah Hart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MSc(a), MFT
As a psychotherapist, couple and family therapist, ecotherapist and creative arts therapist, I work with adults, couples and groups at diverse stages of life. My work is systemic in that I see individuals as impacted by, and interconnected within, larger networks of relationships and social systems. The values underlying my practice are rooted in a long-term dedication to social justice, my belief in creativity as a healing force, and my love and respect for the natural world. Seeking help takes courage, and no one approach works for everyone. I work collaboratively, and tailor my approach to each unique person.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
As a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Director of Switzer Counselling & Psychotherapy Associates, I am passionate about providing compassionate, client-centered care that supports meaningful healing and personal growth. With over 20 years of experience in private practice, I have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families facing a wide range of emotional and relational challenges.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. I integrate modalities such as EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and personality disorder treatment to help clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, and process difficult life experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey built on trust, empathy, and authenticity. My goal is to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward lasting change and emotional well-being.
In addition to my clinical work, I am committed to supporting the growth of the psychotherapy profession through clinical supervision and mentorship of registered professionals and Master’s-level interns. I value ongoing learning, professional development, and fostering strong therapeutic relationships that promote healing and hope.

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.
