Eleine Gordon Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Master's Degree in Counselling Psychology MC, RCC and CCC
Life is full of challenges, changes, and transitions. You may feel lost or unsure about next steps and struggle with anxiety, fear, uncertainty, depression, substance use, trauma, self esteem, relationship or family difficulties, and/or mental health issues. I can support you through the process of getting back to wellness and thriving or just not feeling so alone whether you are: Struggling with mental health; part of the 2SLGBTQI+ Community and wanting support; are neurodivergent or an individual or family impacted by FASD and want support to recognize and embrace your strengths and thrive; a student at college or university; an adult facing career, relationship, family challenges; a senior planning or in retirement; and for more senior clients and families, preparing for end of life.
People say they like my warm and caring, non-judgemental approach.

Kendra Anselmo Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I believe that our struggles make sense in the context of what we've lived through. Whether you're feeling stuck in patterns of anxiety, people-pleasing, self-criticism, or painful relationships, therapy can be a place to slow down, understand yourself more deeply, and begin to heal at the root.
My approach is relational, compassionate, and trauma-informed, integrating Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, mindfulness, and attachment-based perspectives. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, I work collaboratively with clients to explore the protective patterns that once helped them survive while creating space for lasting change.
I strive to create a therapeutic relationship where you feel genuinely seen, accepted, and supported. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you can reconnect with yourself, develop greater self-compassion, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, authentic, and connected.

Nexus Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, Candace Marshall MA, CCC
Being in the nexus of something means you are right in the middle of it hence, easy to feel overwhelmed by the multitude of things coming at you. At Nexus, I will work with you within the context of a nonjudgmental, collaborative and healing therapeutic relationship to parse out and clearly see the interwoven links and connections that contribute to how you experience, perceive and interpret life's challenges, difficulties and obstacles. Understanding these connections allows for the separation of what is important to you and focus on your goal(s) to improve your mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
While I work with clients from all walks of life with varied life issues & psychological disorders, my clinical work is largely focused on working with clients affected by Dissociative Disorders and PTSD. Since graduating in 2013, I have accumulated over 10,000 clinical hours with this population & work using range of approaches depending on client needs.

Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. I know how difficult it can be to navigate the complexities of life, especially when trauma, relationships, or identity issues weigh heavy on your heart. I’m here to offer you a safe, affirming space where you can begin the process of healing, at your own pace, and on your own terms.
Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of sexual trauma, exploring your LGBTQ+ identity, or simply seeking to understand the patterns in your life that no longer serve you, I am committed to walking beside you through every step of the journey. You don’t have to do this alone. In therapy with me, you’ll experience a unique blend of evidence-based therapies, creative techniques, and a deeply empathetic, collaborative approach. I’ll work with you to find what resonates, whether it’s EMDR, psychodynamic exploration, somatic therapy, meditation, or a combination of tools that evolve as your needs shift. My work is rooted in trauma-informed care, meaning I always respect your pace, your boundaries, and your journey. We’ll create a space where your healing is not just possible, but empowered.
I offer flexible evening and late-night sessions, making it easier for you to prioritize your well-being—even with a busy schedule. My online practice allows me to meet you where you are, whether that’s through Zoom or telephone, and I’m fully committed to being present with you during our sessions—so you get the support you deserve when you need it most.
With over a decade in mental health, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of individuals. From my early days supporting Haitian refugees abroad, to my experience working with neurodiverse young adults and seniors, I have helped people from many walks of life navigate complex emotions, trauma, and identity. While I specialize in sexual trauma and LGBTQ+ care, I believe healing is unique to each person—and I’m here to support you, no matter your background, experience, or life stage. Whether you’re exploring deep emotional patterns, working through trauma, or seeking more connection in your relationships, I’m committed to adapting my approach to meet your needs and helping you move forward at your own pace.
If you’re ready to begin this journey, take the first step today—together, we’ll find the path that works best for you. I’m here to help you heal, grow, and thrive.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Do you feel emotionally exhausted from always putting everyone else first? Perhaps you've been in a relationship with a narcissistic partner, struggle to set healthy boundaries, or feel trapped in cycles of perfectionism and people pleasing. You may look like you're coping on the outside while feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or never quite "good enough" on the inside.
You don't have to continue carrying everything alone.
I specialize in helping adults recover from narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and low self-worth. Together we'll work to understand the patterns that have kept you stuck, heal the wounds beneath them, and build healthier relationships with others and with yourself.
Many of my clients are caring, capable, high-functioning people who have spent years taking care of everyone else. They struggle with guilt when saying no, overthink conversations, question themselves after being gaslighted, or feel emotionally drained from unhealthy relationships. Therapy can help you reconnect with your confidence, trust your instincts, and create lasting change.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. I integrate evidence-based therapies while tailoring each session to your unique experiences and goals. My focus is creating a safe, supportive space where you feel understood, not judged.
I can help with:
Narcissistic abuse recovery
Emotional abuse and toxic relationships
Gaslighting and relationship trauma
Burnout and chronic stress
People-pleasing
Perfectionism
Self-esteem and confidence
Boundaries
Anxiety
Women's issues
Life transitions
Relationship concerns
I provide secure virtual counselling for adults throughout Alberta, making therapy accessible wherever you live.
For those looking to make significant progress in a shorter period, I also offer extended Therapy Intensives. These longer sessions allow us to work deeply on long standing patterns and accelerate healing in a focused, supportive environment.
Reaching out for therapy takes courage. Whether you're beginning your healing journey or have tried therapy before, I'd be honoured to support you. Together, we can help you move beyond survival and create a life that feels calmer, more confident, and more authentic.
