North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Welcome! At North Star Therapy, empathy and understanding is central to our practice. We know reaching out for help is a courageous step, and we approach every client with respect, compassion, and an open mind. We strive to create a non-judgmental environment where you will feel heard and validated, fostering a sense of trust that is essential for the therapeutic journey. We are dedicated to creating a safe and supportive space where you can explore, understand, and navigate the complexities of your life and work towards meaningful change. We are here to help. Let's talk about how to get started living the life you want.
Our clients bring a range of concerns to therapy, including relationship issues, parenting, sexual and gender identity, trauma, grief, anger, depression, anxiety, racism and other inequalities, intergenerational trauma, body image, work/career goals, feeling "stuck," and finding meaning in life. If any of these concerns feel familiar, or if you have any other issues you'd like to unpack, don't hesitate to reach out. We look forward to exploring how we might work together.

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.

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.
