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.

Gal Zohar
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., Registered Psychotherapist
True healing begins in a space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. I believe that when we are fully heard and accepted, we can begin to explore our experiences, uncover patterns that may have once kept us safe, and reconnect with our authentic selves. Together, we’ll explore the roots of your struggles, work through challenges with compassion, and foster lasting growth that ripples into your everyday life.

Anna Vaisser Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, MEd, RCC
Life can feel confusing, heavy, or overwhelming—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. In my counselling practice, I offer a calm, thoughtful space where you can untie the inner knots that keep you stuck, understand yourself more deeply, and build the resilience to face life with greater breath and grace. Drawing on neuroscience, trauma‑informed therapy, and mindful awareness, I help you make sense of your patterns, soften anxiety and tension, and reconnect with your inner strength. Clients often tell me they feel lighter, clearer, and more able to make meaningful choices after our work together. If you’re ready for compassionate guidance and lasting change, I’d be honoured to support your journey.

Chris Russell
Counsellor/Therapist, BA Psych, high honours, RCC
I am here for those in need, seeking wisdom and guidance with Love and Honesty. I have over three decades of experience in helping people understand their emotions, fears and psychic blocks towards success in relationships as well as personal success in life. Your first step is reaching out to someone, like myself; the second step is the inner work of self discovery, and honest acceptance of past pains and disappointments. Then the work towards change and growth and healing begins.
