Zanna Seipp-Katz
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Recognizing that you may benefit from professional support is not a weakness but an amazing strength. By coming to this site, you have already taken the first step towards positive change and that takes courage! I know that for myself, the world feels like a very different place than it did a few years ago and many of us are feeling that impact. Therapeutic support is an excellent way to work through the changes of the past and to find ways to look toward a brighter future.
Whether you are looking for general support or to target a specific issue, I would be pleased to chat with you during a free 15-minute phone consultation.
I have immediate virtual availability for residents of Ontario.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center is a practice built on the belief that healing takes time, safety, and depth. We are not a quick-fix model. We integrate neuroscience, attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and faith for those who desire it, so that change is not just behavioural but transformational. What sets us apart is our commitment to long-term relational work, nervous system stabilization, and whole-person care. We look at the patterns beneath the symptoms, the story beneath the survival, and we create a space where individuals, couples, and families can slow down enough to heal from the inside out. We are steady, clinically grounded, and rooted in the understanding that sustainable change happens when people feel safe enough to be fully seen.

Sydney is the urban centre of Cape Breton Regional Municipality and the primary city on Cape Breton Island, a former industrial centre whose steel industry collapsed across the 1960s–2000s, leaving behind one of Canada's most contaminated industrial sites—the Sydney Tar Ponds—and a community that has grappled with the environmental, economic, and psychological legacy of industrial decline and contamination for generations. The Cape Breton Regional Hospital provides mental health services, and the community's tight-knit social fabric—Cape Breton is known for its Celtic cultural traditions, music, and community solidarity—provides genuine protective factors against isolation. Cape Breton University contributes to a modest growth in the regional knowledge economy alongside a student mental health dimension. Common therapy concerns include economic grief and community loss following industrial decline, environmental trauma, seasonal depression in an Atlantic climate, and the mental health challenges of a community that has shown remarkable resilience while confronting genuinely difficult circumstances.
