Aliya Amarshi
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD (Sociology)
I offer warm, attuned, and inclusive online therapy for adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the complexities of identity, family, and work. My approach integrates Gestalt, IFS (parts work), and somatic strategies to support nervous system regulation and deeper self-understanding. I hold space for the full range of your experience—without judgment—and tailor our work to what feels most supportive and effective for you. Healing, to me, is not just personal—it’s also a step toward creating a more compassionate world.

From Our Founder
Clear Minds Counselling was built around a simple idea: **therapy should create change.**
Too often, people come to us after spending years understanding their struggles. They can tell us where a pattern came from, recognize that a reaction isn't helping them, and know exactly what they *should* be doing differently—yet when real life happens, the same response takes over.
That isn't because they haven't tried hard enough. It's because understanding something consciously doesn't necessarily change what the brain and body have learned to do automatically.
That's why we operate differently.
At Clear Minds, our therapists don't rely on one approach or simply sit across from you and talk about the problem. We work **bottom up, top down and side to side**, using evidence-based, neuroscience-informed and experiential approaches to address thoughts and beliefs, nervous-system responses, unconscious patterns and learned reactions.
We believe in creating experiences within therapy that allow clients to practice something different—not just understand something differently. We challenge patterns, build practical skills, regulate responses and help clients create new evidence that the brain can use to update what it has learned from the past.
Our therapists have their own personalities, specialties and clinical approaches, but the philosophy behind Clear Minds remains consistent: **therapy should translate into real life.**
Whether you're coming to us for individual, couples or family counselling, our goal isn't to keep you in therapy forever. It's to help you understand what's happening, change the patterns that are getting in your way, and develop skills you can continue using long after you leave our office.
**You don't have to keep repeating the same patterns.**
Maybe you're ready for something different.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood, respected, and able to be yourself. My style is warm, thoughtful, and collaborative, with space for both reflection and honest conversation. I don’t see people as problems to be fixed; I’m interested in understanding how your experiences have shaped the ways you protect yourself, relate to others, and move through the world. Together, we can slow things down, notice what’s happening beneath the surface, and make room for changes that feel meaningful and sustainable. I bring mindfulness, somatic awareness, and parts work into sessions, while adapting the process to who you are and what feels most useful to you.

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.
