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.

Shay Galamiton
Counsellor/Therapist, RPC, MPCC
My mission is to empower individuals to reach their full potential by supporting their personal growth and well-being. Using evidence-based and strengths-based counselling approaches, I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths, overcome challenges, and achieve meaningful goals. I provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can develop practical tools to manage stress, navigate emotional and behavioural concerns, and create positive, lasting changes that enhance their quality of life.
I am fortunate enough to say that I had lived and experienced two cultures. Living and learning two cultures and two different languages has been a journey for me, but a journey I wouldn’t trade for anything. I am culturally sensitive and acknowledges and respects the difference between different cultural backgrounds and expressions. I love celebrating and empowering everyone I meet, recognizing and valuing their individuality because I believe that embracing multiculturalism gives us a safe place to reflect and challenge ourselves to see the world from a different and unique standpoint.
Throughout our work together, I will take a collaborative and personalized approach, drawing on a variety of therapeutic modalities tailored to your unique needs. This may include psychoeducation, practical tools, and connection to community resources, all designed to support and empower you on your healing journey.

Vanessa Gear
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Is your child or teen feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, ADHD, school challenges, or difficulty managing big emotions? Perhaps learning differences, neurodivergence, family conflict, or life transitions are creating stress at home or school. I work with children, teens, adults, and families who want a supportive space to better understand these challenges. Together, we focus on building emotional regulation, confidence, coping skills, and stronger relationships so clients feel more capable, understood, and supported in their daily lives.
I specialize in supporting children, teens, and families navigating ADHD, autism (ASD), anxiety, school issues, learning challenges, and life transitions. Using CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and experiential approaches, including play-based techniques, I help clients strengthen emotional regulation, build coping skills, and develop greater confidence and resilience
Behind every behaviour is a story waiting to be heard. If you or your child feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck, therapy can provide a supportive space to slow down and make sense of what’s happening. Together we’ll explore strengths, build practical tools, and create meaningful change so you can move forward with greater confidence and connection.
