Renee Chu
Registered Psychotherapist, Hon. BA., RP
Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's demands, struggling with ADHD, anxiety, trauma, grief, or emotional regulation? Do intense emotions or communication challenges make it hard to build the connections you want? With compassion and curiosity, I invite you to explore the roots of recurring patterns so you can achieve lasting change and emotional well-being. What you need matters, and you don't have to face any of this alone.
As a BIPOC, trauma-informed therapist, I bring experience working with neurodivergence, complex relationships, challenging family dynamics, and narcissistic abuse recovery. I use a bicultural and mindfulness-based approach, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, psychodynamic, existential, person-centered, and narrative frameworks to tailor care to your goals. My practice is rooted in a lifelong interest in the interplay between our shared humanity and individual uniqueness, and I believe meaningful change is possible when you feel truly safe, heard, and seen.
I work with a gentle, validating style. There is no right or wrong way to grieve, to struggle, or to heal. Together we can explore entrenched patterns, strengthen emotional regulation, and work through the barriers affecting your well-being and relationships. I tailor therapy to personal growth, healing, and identity exploration through culturally responsive, collaborative care, and I encourage you to be kind to yourself throughout the process.
I offer a complimentary 50-minute online consultation so we can get to know each other and explore whether we are a good fit. Reduced fees are available based on need. Reach out by phone or email, and let's take that first step together.

We can discuss the steps that have led you to this point, as well as the steps you would like to take in the future to improve your well-being.

Joel Mayer
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv
Specializing in anxiety and OCD! Do you feel stuck in your anxiety? Are intrusive thoughts or memories bothering you and getting in the way of your life? Perhaps your anxiety is also affecting your ability to be present and to function in the ways that you would like to in your relationships, work, or school life. Maybe you have coping strategies that used to work in the past but are no longer as effective for you now. If this is the case, do these issues then lead you to experiencing feelings of shame, wondering if there is something wrong with you, or questioning if things will ever get better?
You are not alone and change is possible! Anxious thoughts and feelings do not have to dictate your life and relationships. Together, we will work on learning skills to help you decrease your anxious feelings, get unstuck from your thoughts, develop more helpful coping strategies, and get back into the relationships and activities that matter to you.
My commitment is to come alongside you with compassion and care to offer direct, practical support that can make a difference now. I utilize a mindful, values-based approach to help you get back to meaningfully engaging in your life – whatever that looks like for you! I would be honored to work with you as you seek to live your life more fully.

Lindsay Renaud (EMDR, Trauma, Relationship, ADHD)
Registered Psychotherapist, H.B.A., B.Ed., M.A., EMDR
Not sure where to start or if therapy will help? Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like something’s missing? Trauma, grief, relationships, ADHD, anxiety, career stress—it’s a lot to carry alone and it can drain our battery. I understand what it's like to sit in the client's seat with these feelings and thoughts and I am here to help. Think of me as your GPS—you set the destination, and I’ll help guide you, redirecting as needed along the way. I specialize in trauma, using approaches like EMDR and IFS to help you make sense of your past and lower the distress levels of those memories.
Further, being married/together for 15 years, I understand the complexities that relationships can bring. If you're looking for relationship counselling, I help couples improve communication and conflict through practical tools and strategies (using Gottman and EFT). Or maybe 4 walls are not for you? I also offer walk-and-talk therapy & animal therapy.
If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Please reach out to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation—I look forward to walking alongside you on your path, however that may look.
