Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, (RTC)(ACCT), C.HypTM -Trauma Specialist, B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
I approach counselling as a quiet, supportive partnership where clients feel safe to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with themselves. I believe meaningful change happens not through pressure or fixing, but through understanding, patience, and compassionate guidance.
With more than two decades of experience, I support individuals facing emotional overwhelm, trauma-related stress, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My work is rooted in trauma-informed and culturally sensitive care, with attention to both emotional experiences and how stress is carried in the body.
I aim to offer a calm and respectful space where clients feel valued, understood, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity, stability, and self-trust.

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.

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.

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.

Nexus Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, Candace Marshall MA, CCC
Being in the nexus of something means you are right in the middle of it hence, easy to feel overwhelmed by the multitude of things coming at you. At Nexus, I will work with you within the context of a nonjudgmental, collaborative and healing therapeutic relationship to parse out and clearly see the interwoven links and connections that contribute to how you experience, perceive and interpret life's challenges, difficulties and obstacles. Understanding these connections allows for the separation of what is important to you and focus on your goal(s) to improve your mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
While I work with clients from all walks of life with varied life issues & psychological disorders, my clinical work is largely focused on working with clients affected by Dissociative Disorders and PTSD. Since graduating in 2013, I have accumulated over 10,000 clinical hours with this population & work using range of approaches depending on client needs.
