Carl Malmsten
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CHyp
Over the last 6 decades decades I have had the opportunity to make significant mistakes, suffer and grow just like you. I have learned that success in life and relationships is about learning from these mistakes, and seeking support from people with experience, compassion, knowledge and life wisdom. I would be honoured to share the path with you and to walk together through the difficulties you have had, to a future with possibility, self acceptance and freedom.

Ida Uzelman
Counsellor/Therapist, MPCC-P, RTC
Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted? You are not alone. Hi, I’m Ida. I offer trauma-informed counselling to help clients gain clarity, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change. Trained in Vancouver and based in Kelowna for 30 years, I support individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, loss, and life transitions. I foster resilience in a compassionate, confidential, and non-judgmental space. Research consistently shows that the therapeutic relationship between counsellor and client is one of the strongest predictors of positive outcomes.
It won’t always feel this painful. I would be honoured to walk alongside you on this important journey called life. A free 15-minute consultation is available if you have questions or would like to see if we are a good fit. Call now.

Laura Chartrand
Counsellor/Therapist, BA, RTC
I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship issues, and life transitions. My approach is gentle and non-judgmental — this is a space to actually explore what you're feeling, not just manage it.
I've had my own experience with anxiety and self-doubt, and it shapes how I show up with clients. I don't believe healing means fixing something broken in you. It means reconnecting with who you already are underneath the noise.
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, you don't have to sort through it alone.

Samuele Bariani
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP
Hi! My name is Samuele and I am a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) and Clinical Supervisor with The College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I am fluent in English and Italian and I can speak functional Spanish. With over 9 years of experience, I support individuals, couples, and families who are seeking meaningful change and healing in their lives. My work focuses on helping people navigate life’s challenges, reconnect with their strengths, and move toward a greater sense of peace and wholeness. Often, our journey toward healing begins when we pause to reflect on the experiences that have shaped us – especially the moments where we may have felt shame, alienation, or fragmentation. In therapy, we create space to gently explore these stories, fostering understanding, compassion, and the possibility for growth and transformation.
If you feel ready, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your healing journey.
I also provide supervision to therapists and students who are looking to strengthen their confidence and competence in their clinical work.
In my free time, I enjoy hiking, cooking, exploring the beauty of nature in every season, reading, travelling, and connecting with others.

The Art Of Healing
Marriage and Family Therapist, RTC, CT
What makes my therapy practice unique is the way I blend clinical skill with real-life understanding. I don’t just offer techniques—I create a space where you feel genuinely seen, understood, and safe to be yourself. My approach is mindful, trauma-informed, and grounded in emotional awareness and nervous system regulation, helping you not only process what you’ve been through, but also build the tools to move forward with clarity and confidence. As someone who deeply values growth, resilience, and self-connection, I walk alongside my clients in a way that feels supportive, empowering, and real.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for something to shift—even if you can’t fully explain what that is—this is your sign to reach out. You don’t have to wait until things get worse to invest in yourself. Therapy can be the space where you slow down, reconnect, and start creating a life that feels more aligned, peaceful, and intentional.
