Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
With over 20 years' counselling experience let me help you find the life you wish for. I am the proud mother of 4 sons (now adult) and grandmother to 8 (a mixture of girls and boys)! In addition to counselling I’ve worked in hospital administration, construction, business, advertising/marketing and farming. I also love to learn. Neurodiversity explains how our brains work and affect our behaviour and enables us to use tools to level the playing field so that you get the absolute most from your life. Explore the connection between your reactions and your past and the strong connection between the body, the psyche and the brain (including polyvagal work). (I also ballroom-dance at every opportunity!)

David McAlinden
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Candidate, Yorkville University
I know reaching out for therapy can feel uncomfortable, especially if you’re used to carrying things on your own or trying to push through everything yourself. You might not even fully know how to explain what’s wrong yet, only that something feels heavy, overwhelming, or difficult to manage alone.
My approach is warm, calm, and non-judgmental. I want therapy to feel like a space where you can speak openly, slow things down, and feel genuinely heard without pressure to have everything figured out right away. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck in ways that are leaving you emotionally drained, I aim to work alongside you at a pace that feels comfortable and meaningful for you.

Shemina Jeraj
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
In my practice, I ensure that I provide a place to explore your suffering or what you want to change in your life without shame, judgment or criticism. This journey is about you and your unique experience. When you see your experience for what it is then you will be able to move past it. I can support build healthy relationships, self-esteem, marital stress, disconnection and conflict, over thinking and anxiety, depression, grief, cancer and any life transitions. Feel free to connect with me to see if we are a right fit.

Jessamyn Stewart
Registered Social Worker, RSW
I work best with people who are exploring the deeper layers of who they are: those navigating inner conflict, non-traditional relationships, grief, heartbreak, shame and self-esteem. I take an integrative approach to counselling by utilizing attachment theories, parts-work and narrative therapy.

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.
