Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Life can sometimes feel like you’re running in circles—facing patterns that are hard to break, struggling with worry, self-doubt, or lingering effects from past experiences. You may notice tension in your relationships, challenges with communication, or a sense of disconnection from yourself or others. I provide a supportive space to slow down, explore what’s happening beneath the surface, and build practical strategies to help you feel more grounded, capable, and present in your daily life.
Clients often describe a sense of relief and renewed hope after beginning therapy. Many report increased self-awareness, steadiness, and confidence in handling difficult emotions or life transitions. My work focuses on helping you take small, meaningful steps toward lasting change while developing tools that support long-term growth.
I use a collaborative, evidence-informed approach that integrates nervous system regulation, trauma recovery, and attachment-focused insights. Together, we’ll explore both practical solutions and deeper understanding, creating a path toward greater resilience, clarity, and fulfillment.
When you’re ready, I offer a free initial consultation to help you determine whether my approach aligns with your needs.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Do you find yourself getting overwhelmed and overstimulated easily? Tend to overthink or feel anxious? Or perhaps you’ve been called “too sensitive” or emotional? Have you ever noticed that you take longer to process things, and need more downtime than others? If any of this resonates, you, like myself, might be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), and I’m so glad you’re here.
I understand how it feels to process things more deeply, to have a strong desire for purpose and meaning in the world and to connect to a spiritual practice. My mission is to help guide other sensitive souls embrace their sensitivity as a gift, and to step into their most authentic, confident and aligned version of themselves. I want to help you work with it rather than against it. I provide counselling for individuals and couples with a wide range of challenges including: anxiety, depression, healing trauma, relationship difficulties, spiritual/religious exploration, emotional regulation, life transitions, self esteem/self worth, disordered eating, personal growth and struggles related to neurodivergence (HSP, Autism, ASHD). We all need someone who embodies the phrase, “I see you, and I care”, and I’m honoured to have the opportunity to be that for my clients. Your inner experience matters.
I believe the world is a better place when more deep feeling, sensitive people feel comfortable and safe in their skin and I can’t wait to support you in this process. This work takes courage, trust and commitment, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to get curious about your inner world, and to start focusing your energy on your own well-being and healing, head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation. I offer in person, online and walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you.

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.

Nadia Zamzul
Registered Psychotherapist, R.P., LL.M
Frustrated by "talk therapy"? Then, you might not just be looking for a therapist—you’re looking for someone who can help you shift. Let's make sense of what’s happening deeply beneath the surface. I bring a combination of clinical depth, relational attunement, and real-world expertise to my work. With advanced training in relational psychotherapy, somatic approaches, and parts work, I help clients move beyond insight and into meaningful, lasting change.
I specialize in working with high-functioning individuals who feel stuck in patterns around self-worth, relationships, and emotional regulation. My approach is both grounded and intuitive—I don’t just listen, I track what’s happening in your nervous system, your patterns, and your relationships in real time. This allows me to gently challenge what isn’t working while creating a space that feels safe, respectful, and deeply human.

Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
I believe that meaningful change doesn’t come from forcing or fixing yourself, it comes from understanding yourself more deeply, and learning how to work with your mind and body, rather than against them. In my work as a clinical hypnotherapist, I often meet people who are capable, thoughtful, and self-aware, yet feel stuck in patterns of anxiety, overthinking, emotional eating, or self-doubt. These patterns can feel frustrating, especially when you’ve “tried everything” to change them. What I’ve seen, time and time again, is that real, lasting change happens when we gently access the deeper parts of the mind where these patterns are held. This is where hypnotherapy can be incredibly effective; supporting you to shift not just how you think, but how you feel, respond, and experience yourself day to day.

Karen Baker
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CTP Dipl
We humans are all a little mysterious to ourselves — carrying patterns, reactions, and feelings we don't fully understand, and often facing them alone.
I'm a Registered Psychotherapist, regulated in Ontario (CRPO), now based in BC. I offer secure online psychodynamic therapy to adults across Ontario and British Columbia.
Anxiety, low mood, and chronic stress often aren't random — they're signals. A nervous system that learned, early on, to stay alert, brace for impact, or manage more than it should have. Even when the original circumstances are long gone, the alarm can keep sounding, showing up in our bodies, our reactions, our relationships. Saying yes when we wish we said no, and people-pleasing when we are already depleted.
These patterns are adaptations to the environments we grew up in. Sometimes they no longer serve us as adults, and we need to revise our rules for life.
My work is to help you learn to read that inner weather — to notice when your system is sounding an alarm, and to find your way back to steadier ground. I don't offer a fixed roadmap. I offer companionship: a steady, experienced presence willing to go into uncertain territory with you, without rushing or minimizing what you're carrying. I won't pretend to have the map, but I've made this kind of journey many times, and I won't leave your side when it gets uncertain.
A space where all of you is welcome.
