Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
I provide comprehensive counselling support for individuals navigating a wide range of personal, emotional, and situational challenges. My practice specializes in helping clients manage the pressures of perfectionism, high-achievement, and burnout, while offering dedicated space for navigating men’s issues, women’s issues (including perimenopause), and the unique complexities of ADHD or neurodivergence. I offer compassionate guidance for those experiencing mild depression, anxiety, low mood, or profound loneliness, helping you build self-compassion and emotional regulation strategies. Additionally, I support individuals walking through major life disruptions and hardships, including life or career transitions, divorce and relationship strain, grief, and loss of direction. No matter the challenge, my goal is to help you slow down, understand your patterns, and build a more intentional, resilient path forward.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
So many of my clients, no matter what issue they initially come in for, have issues related to setting boundaries, communicating with their partners, and consent. I find that before doing any other work with them, I must teach them about consent, setting boundaries, and understanding relationship dynamics. In my sexuality training, I had to learn Betty Martin's Wheel of Consent, which has become the gold standard worldwide for teaching about consent. Certainly, for clients I work with around sexual issues of relationship issues, teaching the Wheel of Consent is the first step. Understanding relationship dynamics for the first time in their lives puts many clients' problems into a new perspective and often resolves their issues without having to do any other work, though we usually do just to clear any residue of past hurts and anger. We often do hypnosis focused on strengthening boundaries and building internal resources so they go forward in a stronger more positive way.
