Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
Do you often feel like it's up to you to keep the peace in relationships or get things done? You may be conscientious, dependable, and committed to doing things “the right way,” while privately experiencing stress, exhaustion, self-criticism, or disconnection.
If you identify with Type C traits, you may prioritize others, avoid conflict, keep difficult emotions to yourself, and feel pressure to continually accomplish more. While these qualities can reflect strength and integrity, they may also contribute to burnout, chronic stress or pain, disrupted sleep, relationship difficulties, and feeling dissatisfied despite your achievements.
I support high-functioning adults who want to maintain their values and sense of purpose while developing greater balance, self-compassion, and emotional well-being. Our collaborative, trauma-informed work may focus on boundaries, communication, stress management, self-criticism, sleep, chronic pain, emotional expression, or relationships.
Together, we’ll develop practical strategies tailored to your goals so you can protect your energy, strengthen connections, and create lasting change—without losing who you are. Contact me for a free 15-minute consultation to explore whether we’re a good fit.

Gal Zohar
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Ed., Registered Psychotherapist
True healing begins in a space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. I believe that when we are fully heard and accepted, we can begin to explore our experiences, uncover patterns that may have once kept us safe, and reconnect with our authentic selves. Together, we’ll explore the roots of your struggles, work through challenges with compassion, and foster lasting growth that ripples into your everyday life.

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.

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.

Karen Baker
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CTP Dipl
I believe the parts of us that are hardest to look at — the patterns we can't explain, the reactions we regret, the feelings we'd rather not feel — hold the key to relieving suffering and finding a fuller sense of self. Those painful or shameful parts don't need fixing so much as understanding and accepting. My role is to offer clients an attuned and non-judgmental ear, and encourage a curiosity about their own inner world, while helping to recognize and interpret important signals from the nervous system — with a steady, consistent presence who can sit in the uncertainty with them. Over time, that kind of relationship can become a template for other secure, trusting connections. Clients who sense there's something beneath the surface worth exploring, even if they're not sure yet what that is, might find value in my approach.
