Suzanna Derewicz
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I believe therapy to be that unique safer space we bravely step into that provides us with a secure frame for receiving support, processing difficult experiences, creating change or improvement where desired, and buttressing our resilience moving through an often unpredictable and sometimes unrelenting world.

Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
My goal in counselling is to help you to find what's missing in your life. Perhaps it is issues with identity, or ongoing conflicts in relationships, or a feeling of "stuckness." Mutual respect and trust are vital components to our work together. I offer a unique setting where we can work through the topics you bring in a non-judgmental way.

Jodi Bergman Counselling & Consulting
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC, B.Ed, BA,
PARENTING, CO-PARENTING, and BLENDING a family is one of the most rewarding yet challenging journeys we embark on. My approach is rooted in attachment theory, emphasizing the deep connection between parent and child as the foundation for emotional resilience, self-regulation, and overall well-being.
Drawing from the work of Dr. Gordon Neufeld, I guide parents in understanding how secure attachment fosters confidence, independence, and a sense of belonging in children. I support parents in strengthening their relationship with their child—because connection is the key to cooperation.
Through personalized consultations, I help parents and step-parents:
✔ Navigate challenging behaviors with insight and confidence
✔ Foster emotional security and resilience in their children
✔ Understand the developmental needs behind behaviors
✔ Cultivate a parenting approach that aligns with their values
✔ Set up a supportive co-parenting plan
✔ Consciously integrate a stepfamily.
Parenting isn’t about perfection—it’s about connection. Let’s work together to create a path forward that feels both effective and meaningful.

Renee Chu
Registered Psychotherapist, Hon. BA., RP (Qualifying)
Are you feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, battling anxiety, ADHD, Autism, or struggling with intense emotions and impulses? Do you find navigating social cues and communication challenging, making it difficult to build fulfilling relationships? With compassion and curiosity, I invite you to explore the influences behind your recurring patterns, so that you can achieve deep transformation and satisfaction. As a BIPOC, trauma-informed therapist experienced in navigating neurodivergent challenges, complex relationship dynamics, family/intergenerational issues, and narcissistic abuse, I tailor my approach to personal and relational growth, trauma recovery, and identity exploration.
My priority is to empower you to develop confidence, resilience, balance and a positive self-image. My therapy practice is also rooted in a lifelong interest in the interplay of our common humanity and individual uniqueness. I use a bicultural and mindfulness lens to draw from my own process of self-discovery and emotional experience to meet you in yours.
Meaningful change is possible and I am here to walk that path with you at your pace. Together, we can reshape entrenched habits that no longer serve you and overcome barriers. Reach out to me for a complimentary 50-minute consultation to begin your journey towards a more authentic and fulfilling life.
