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!)

Maya Awad
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Accepting NEW clients - Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like you’re carrying a lot on your own? Feel like you're doing everything you’re “supposed to do,” but something still doesn’t feel right? Have a desire to better understand your thoughts, emotions, or patterns, work on building confidence or self-esteem, or find support for your child, relationship, or yourself? You don’t need to have it all figured out to begin. You’re not expected to perform, impress, or have the right words, because we'll make sense of it all together. I offer a free consultation call. Daytime and evening availability.

Jonah Fialkow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
I specialize in working with people struggling with ADHD, anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. I have deep empathy for the experience of anxiety and relationship struggles, and I know how isolating and overwhelming it can feel. I know that anxiety often comes from a place of just wanting to get it right, and I'm skilled in working through the underlying issues that contribute to anxiety so that you can feel confident and secure instead of frozen and stalled.
I understand how anxiety affects all stages of relationships (including finding a partner in the first place) and I support my clients to move from feeling lonely and disconnected to confident and secure. In addition to my individual work, I offer evidence-based couples' counselling using the Gottman method, which goes beyond just communication skills and gives practical strategies to create real change.

Barbara (Barchi) Fojkar
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCC
My approach to counselling is holistic, honouring the whole person: mind, body, heart, and spirit, rather than focusing only on symptoms.
Having lived in Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and Canada, I understand personally what it can mean to navigate different cultures, identities, and ways of belonging. I have had the privilege of working with people from European, North American, Asian, African, and multicultural backgrounds, across different ages and stages of life. I welcome the unique culture, story, and perspective each person brings into the room.
