Andrew Saliba
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC (Registration No. 11246757), APC (Registration No. 834ON24)
Together, I believe therapy can be both transformational and perhaps even enjoyable.
Maybe you'd like to begin working on some things, but aren't sure where to start. I believe everyone deserves a safe place to share, process, and to find inner healing. I welcome you as you are. Contact me to let me know about yourself or what you're seeking help about.
My journey has been neither easy nor straightforward, so I see the need for empathy, deep listening, and a non-judgemental approach to issues.
One of the reasons I became a counsellor was to support those with either pain from the past, questions about life, or problems that require someone who listens well and has expertise to help. My desire is to help you understand yourself better and navigate your circumstances with a sense of strength, hope, and togetherness.

Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
Do you often feel responsible for maintaining harmony in your relationships or ensuring tasks are completed? You may be reliable and committed to doing things “the right way,” yet internally struggle with stress, exhaustion, self-judgment, and a sense of disconnection. If this resonates with you, you may often prioritize others, strive to prevent conflict, and conceal your deeper emotions, all while feeling the pressure to achieve more. While these traits can indicate strength and integrity, they can also lead to burnout, chronic stress or pain, disrupted sleep, and dissatisfaction in your relationships and accomplishments.
I specialize in supporting service-oriented, conscientious individuals like you who want to preserve their values and sense of purpose while cultivating balance, self-compassion, and emotional wellness. My collaborative, mind-body approach can address areas such as boundaries, communication, stress management, self-judgment, sleep issues, chronic pain, emotional expression, and connections with others.
Together, we will create personalized strategies to help you protect your energy, enhance your relationships, and achieve lasting transformation without compromising your identity. Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re the right match.

Sam Duran
Counsellor/Therapist, MAMFT, RCC, EMDR-Trained
Life can become difficult when painful experiences, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, or patterns that seem difficult to change begin to affect how you feel, relate to others, and move through daily life. You do not have to navigate these concerns without meaningful support. I work with adults and couples, offering a compassionate and respectful space where your experiences are taken seriously and you are understood as a whole person, rather than reduced to a diagnosis or label. Together, we can explore what may be keeping you stuck, work through painful experiences, strengthen important relationships, and develop healthier ways of moving forward. My approach combines evidence-based therapy with compassion, thoughtful exploration, and honest reflection, including but not limited to EMDR, the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), Christian faith-based approaches when desired, and trauma-informed practice. My goal is to help you gain greater understanding, experience meaningful change, and move forward with greater clarity and hope.

Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Our life experiences—especially those marked by adversity, trauma, loss, or difficult relationships—shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. When painful experiences remain unresolved, they can contribute to anxiety, depression, self-doubt, emotional overwhelm, persistent rumination, and deeply ingrained negative thinking patterns. Many people find themselves feeling disconnected from who they truly are, struggling to trust themselves, build healthy relationships, or find peace in the present.
My passion is helping individuals reconnect with themselves, heal from the impact of adverse life experiences, and cultivate a life guided by self-compassion, resilience, and authenticity. I understand that healing is not about "getting over" what has happened—it is about understanding how your experiences have shaped you, making sense of your emotional responses, and developing new ways of thinking, feeling, and relating to yourself and others.
I believe that much of our emotional suffering arises when we struggle to reconcile the gap between our lived reality and our expectations of ourselves, others, or life itself. Over time, this struggle can lead to self-criticism, anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, and a sense of disconnection. Together, we can explore these patterns with curiosity rather than judgment, helping you move away from surviving and toward genuinely living.
Whether you are coping with the effects of childhood adversity, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or a persistent inner critic, I will walk alongside you with compassion, empathy, and respect. My goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen emotional resilience, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and replace cycles of rumination and self-doubt with greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, and confidence.
I believe every individual is the expert on their own life and already possesses the capacity for growth and healing. My role is not to tell you who to become, but to create a safe, collaborative, and trusting therapeutic relationship where your strengths, values, and inner wisdom can emerge. Together, we will work at a pace that feels right for you, honouring your experiences while helping you build practical tools to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and emotional balance.
I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Therapy is a space where you can bring your whole self—your fears, hopes, struggles, and strengths—and know that you will be met with compassion, validation, and genuine care. Healing is a journey, and you do not have to walk it alone.
