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.

Do you and your partner keep having the same arguments without ever feeling heard or understood? Maybe communication quickly turns into conflict, trust has been broken, or you're navigating separation, divorce, or preparing for marriage. Stress, anxiety, or depression may also be affecting your relationship, leaving you feeling distant or frustrated. Maybe you know that something needs to change but aren’t sure where to start. If you want calmer conversations, stronger communication, and a relationship that feels more secure and connected, therapy can help you build the skills to get there.

I work with couples and adults navigating relationship challenges, including communication issues, infidelity, marital conflict, premarital counselling, divorce, and family stress. I also support individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, and self-esteem concerns using practical, evidence-based tools.
Many couples begin therapy not because their relationship is failing, but because they want to strengthen it. Sessions with me are supportive, direct, and focused on real progress. Together we work on communication, conflict resolution, and breaking the patterns that keep relationships stuck so you can move forward with greater understanding and connection.

Matthew Pitts
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and driven, yet internally struggling with relationship conflict, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, career stress, or recurring interpersonal patterns that leave them feeling stuck. Therapy can offer a space to better understand these experiences, navigate difficult emotions and relationships, and develop more grounded and meaningful ways forward. My approach is collaborative, reflective, compassionate, and direct when helpful. I aim to create a space where clients can explore difficult emotions honestly while feeling supported, understood, and challenged toward growth. Prior to becoming a Registered Psychotherapist, I worked as a family law lawyer. That experience informs my understanding of conflict, emotional strain, and the complexity people carry beneath outward competence. My life experience also includes marriage, parenthood, and work within finance/asset management, which shape the perspective I bring into therapy. I work with individuals and couples, focusing on areas like anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, career stress, separation/divorce, men’s issues, and persistent interpersonal tension. In couples work, I help partners better understand recurring cycles of conflict so that more emotionally honest, insightful and productive conversations may emerge.

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.
