Hardie Counselling & BrainWorX, Inc
Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
For over three decades, I have had the privilege of helping clients while striving to provide the very best of counselling therapy they have entrusted me with. I am committed to excellence by staying at the forefront of therapeutic advancements, integrating current and effective techniques to empower clients in achieving their goals efficiently. In my practice, I provide a safe, comfortable, and supportive space where individuals can flourish, develop self-assurance, and embrace their full potential. My mission is to help clients overcome challenges, unlock their ability to lead fulfilling lives, and realize their authentic selves. I am dedicated to ensuring each individual feels seen, heard, and empowered to reach their goals.
Counselling has had a transformative impact on my own journey, serving as a powerful means of redemption and personal growth. It is now an immense blessing for me to be able to provide counselling for others, extending hope and facilitating healing in their lives, a possibility I firmly believe in because I, too, have navigated and overcome what once appeared to be insurmountable challenges and obstacles. I have made many mistakes and experienced many challenges, heartache, and sorrow, as well as incredible blessings in my lifetime. Today, I give God thanks for all His gifts – for the peace and assurance that I have even in difficult circumstances; for health, healing, and forgiveness; for family and friends; for the opportunity to do the work I do; and for His love that permeates my life.
I was divorced after 27 years of marriage and have two adult children. I married Bob Hardie in 2000, but was widowed in 2008. I have since remarried to a rancher who was also widowed. Together, we have 4 children, 8 grandchildren (one in Heaven), and 1 great-grandchild. We enjoy traveling and spending time with friends and family.
In addition to my private practice, I have a strong commitment to community outreach through my church, where I have actively facilitated various supportive and educational classes. These include GriefShare, a comprehensive program specifically designed to assist individuals navigating the complexities of grief and loss after experiencing the passing of a loved one. I also lead the Boundaries class, which is tailored for those facing separation or divorce, providing valuable insights and practical strategies to cultivate healthier relationships by establishing and maintaining personal boundaries. Furthermore, I facilitate the Changes That Heal class, offering a transformative experience that empowers participants to gain a deeper understanding of their past experiences, enabling them to build a more resilient and fulfilling future.

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
At Meaningfully Connected Counselling, meaningful connection is at the heart of everything we do. We are a team of compassionate therapists who support individuals feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or as though they are nearing a breaking point. Our goal is to help you better understand your inner world and develop a greater sense of clarity, balance, and agency so you can begin to feel that you have real options again.
We believe healing begins when every part of you is welcomed with compassion — even the parts that feel anxious, guarded, ashamed, angry, uncertain, or hard to understand. Rather than pushing those parts away, we work alongside you to gently explore them with curiosity and care, helping you develop a deeper and more integrated relationship with yourself.
Our approach is grounded in authentic human connection, compassion, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches. We believe lasting healing happens within safe and supportive relationships where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Our therapists draw from a range of modern and effective modalities while remaining deeply attuned to your unique story, pace, and needs.
For clients who desire it, we also thoughtfully integrate faith and spirituality into the therapeutic process. We honour the role that faith, meaning, and connection to something greater can play in healing, growth, and restoration.
Through the meaningful connection you build with your therapist, you can develop a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, body, relationships, and the many parts that make you who you are. This deeper self-connection can help you show up more fully — for yourself, for others, and for the life you want to create.

As a psychotherapist, my core mission is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can openly explore their emotions, thoughts, and life experiences.
