Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Recognizing that you may benefit from professional support is not a weakness but an amazing strength.

Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
Kevin’s path to becoming a therapist wasn’t a straight line—it was a discovery of who he truly is and how he wants to contribute to the world. He initially followed the direction his parents encouraged, completing an undergraduate degree in psychology before moving into law. As a lawyer in a full-service firm, he found himself drawn not to the adversarial side of the work, but to the problem-solving, collaboration, and human connection that naturally unfolded when helping clients navigate difficult decisions.
Over time, Kevin realized that the parts of law he loved most—listening, understanding, and working together toward solutions—were exactly the pieces that aligned with his values and strengths. He began to ask himself how can I make this the whole job? That question ultimately led him back to psychology, where a collaborative, solution-focused approach could become the foundation of his work. Therapy, he realized, was where he could fully lean into who he is: calm, thoughtful, curious, and deeply oriented toward helping people move forward with clarity.
Kevin’s shift into couples counselling grew naturally out of his experience in divorce law. He often saw relationships break down not because of a lack of love, but because communication had eroded long before either partner sought help. Witnessing this was disheartening—it highlighted how many couples were struggling without support and how preventable many of those ruptures could have been.
As a therapist, Kevin now has the opportunity to be on the other side of that process. Couples counselling allows him to help partners strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and rediscover connection before the relationship reaches a breaking point. It’s meaningful work that aligns with both his professional insight and his personal desire to help people stay connected rather than fall apart.
Today, Kevin brings the best of both worlds—his background in psychology and his experience in law—into a grounded, practical, and deeply human therapeutic style. He is committed to creating a space where individuals and couples can understand themselves, improve their relationships, and navigate life’s complexities with confidence.

Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
Who in your life truly listens to you? I base my practice in deep listening. I believe in your own inner owl: the innate wisdom you have but just can't find right now. My role is to provide a safe, gentle, non-judgmental and confidential space to help you get in touch with your wisdom so you can live your fullest life.
I've come to believe that the purpose of suffering is to help us better understand ourselves, our relationships and life itself. I would like to help you break through to what life has in store for you next. Fundamentally, there's nothing wrong with us; at difficult points in our lives, we all developed coping strategies that helped us survive but now, these strategies get in the way. Let's work together to facilitate your healing and growth.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
With over 20 years' counselling experience let me help you find the life you wish for. I am the proud mother of 4 sons (now adult) and grandmother to 8 (a mixture of girls and boys)! In addition to counselling I’ve worked in hospital administration, construction, business, advertising/marketing and farming. I also love to learn. Neurodiversity explains how our brains work and affect our behaviour and enables us to use tools to level the playing field so that you get the absolute most from your life. Explore the connection between your reactions and your past and the strong connection between the body, the psyche and the brain (including polyvagal work). (I also ballroom-dance at every opportunity!)
