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.

Colin Hayward
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd
My goal in therapy is to create a space where you can say the things you haven’t felt able to say anywhere else. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who carry a lot on their own. They may talk things through with friends or family at times, but often hesitate to go too far because they don’t want to burden the people around them. In therapy, you have a place where you can speak freely and be fully heard.
Clients often tell me they’re surprised by how much they have to say once they begin. They may have spent years thinking through challenges in their lives, but haven’t had the opportunity to explore those thoughts out loud in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. My role isn’t to criticize the past, rush to conclusions, or tell you what decisions you should make. Instead, I focus on helping you understand your experiences, clarify what matters most to you, and find practical ways forward that feel authentic and sustainable.
I see therapy as a collaborative process that helps you better understand both your strengths and the challenges that come with them. Many qualities that serve us well in life—like sensitivity, dedication, or a strong work ethic—can also create difficulties when they become overwhelming or unbalanced. Together, we explore how these qualities shape your experiences, identify the patterns that may be holding you back, and build on the strengths that can help you move forward.
Sometimes this work involves learning specific tools or skills. Other times it involves taking the time to reflect, share important stories, and gain new perspective. Either way, my aim is to help you uncover resources within yourself that may have been overlooked and to support you in navigating difficult moments with greater clarity and confidence.
I tailor my approach to each person I work with because every individual’s experiences and goals are different. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, OCD, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to slow down, reflect, and make meaningful progress.

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!)
