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.

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.

Fiona Matalon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
If you're looking for long lasting change and finally breaking patterns, I'd love to support you. "Somatic counselling with Fiona is bringing change to my life in a powerful and profound way. I can't explain what exactly is happening inside me, it isn't the work I'm used to doing in counselling, and yet when the connection happens and release comes I feel like I have unloaded years worth of heavy emotions. My life is naturally shifting in ways that I never imagined possible, my body has started to process emotion differently, I am thinking about life differently, and I feel powerful. I am shifting in ways that I never imagined."

Rosemary Laurel
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Village Wise Woman here! What would you like to talk about? Can we sit together in sacred witnessing, holding space for all that is present? Let's do that. Transformation arises from pure presence and awareness. Let me hold space with you, really meeting you where you're at. You can have the space to just BE. Nothing is expected of you. You can just show up. I'll bring my ability to channel energy and radiate heart source coherence to alchemize whatever you're ready to rewire or let go of, as you to tune in to your own inner knowing.
