Family Systems Therapy
NS Talks
Counsellor/Therapist, RP, RCT, RCT-C, CCC, CCTP
We’re passionate about our work. We're constantly engaging in professional development to ensure we’re the best therapists we can be. We meet regularly to exchange ideas, and even have a book club. Our team members hold several additional certifications treating Clinical Trauma, ADHD, and are trained in EMDR. We work with clients dealing with a number of struggles and we're here to help.
The research has consistently shown the importance of good fit for successful counselling. That's why we start with a consult with the Clinical Director, followed by a consult with 1-2 of our therapists to empower you to have a say in who you work with. You will not be matched off a spreadsheet or by the next available appointment.
We're a counsellor-led practice. I’ll be uncomfortably blunt with you on this: there are a lot of practices out there run by people who know nothing about counselling, hiring subcontractors at every step, trying to maximize how much they can charge the client, and minimize how much they pay the counsellor. These environments inhibit counsellor growth, may have high turnover, and usually do not deliver the quality of care you deserve.
It’s just the 4 of us and a monthly bookkeeper. Since we’re virtual, we pass the savings on to you where possible. We do not have a large ad budget, relying on the quality of work we do leading to word of mouth referrals.

Amanda Spallacci
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you find yourself struggling with relationships? You might be feeling overwhelmed from balancing the demands of work, school, and daily tasks, leaving you feeling emotionally drained and disconnected from yourself and your relationships. Past trauma or self-doubt may be weighing you down. Perhaps you can’t even remember the last time you truly felt at ease. But something in you is ready for change. You want to feel grounded, supported, and seen. You want to move through life with confidence and emotional clarity. I can help you reconnect with your sense of self and begin that healing process.

Family Systems Therapy
Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counsellor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Life can feel so heavy when anxiety won’t let your mind rest, when fear wakes you at night, or when stress and self-doubt erode your confidence and faith. When burnout creeps in and relationships begin to crack, holding it all together can start to feel overwhelming.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand that weight. Our Christian counselors help young professionals, couples, and families find calm, rebuild trust, and walk in the peace Jesus promised—rather than performing under the pressures this world demands.
We integrate faith-based wisdom with evidence-based care, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT, Gottman, EFT, Narrative Therapy, trauma-informed work, tapping, and breathwork. This combination helps you retrain your nervous system, heal emotional and spiritual wounds, and live with genuine peace.
Clients often come to us struggling with anxiety, insomnia, panic attacks, grief, burnout, relationship conflict, or a sense of spiritual disconnection. Here, you’ll find compassion, honesty, and practical tools to feel safe in your body and centered in your spirit again.
What we offer:
• Free consultations for new clients — relief can start now
• Same-week availability, including evenings (Mon–Thu until 8 p.m.)
• Sliding-scale rates for affordable care
• In-person, telehealth, or phone sessions
You don’t have to face the storm alone. There is calm on the other side—and together, we can find it.

Brianne Roy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Do you find yourself questioning your relationships, your identity, or where your life is heading? You might be burned out from masking or holding it together, drained from a separation or life change, or noticing distance growing between you and your partner. Perhaps you're navigating neurodivergence, stuck in codependency, or grieving a life that didn't go as planned. You may not remember the last time you felt truly like yourself. But something in you is ready for change. You want to feel steady, understood, and clear about your next step. I can help you slow down, make sense of what's happening, and begin moving forward.
I work with adults, couples and families navigating anxiety, burnout, neurodivergence, codependency, identity exploration, relationship conflict and life transitions. I focus on attachment patterns, ADHD and Autism masking, premarital counselling, separation and divorce recovery, and supporting diverse identities and non-traditional relationship structures.
Clients come to me when they want a therapist who sees the full picture, not just the surface. Sessions are warm, collaborative, and never rushed. I meet you where you are and we work at your pace. You don't need the right words or a clear goal before reaching out. I offer a free consultation so we can explore whether working together feels right.
