Shane Smyth
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, OACCPP
I specialise in couples therapy. I love helping couples improve their relationship by increasing their ability to communicate openly and lovingly. I am trained in Gottman Couples Therapy to Level 3 and am a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist. I have also completed several sex therapy intensive trainings. I have over 15 years helping couples. Sexuality and desire discrepancies are something that I enjoy working it as this often becomes a shut down topic for couples. I try to make therapy as accessible and easy going as possible. I believe that everyone has the right to have a rich and meaningful life and through therapy I hope to provide clients with the space and skills to access their own inner resources as well as build meaningful relationships.

Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
My journey into this field is deeply personal. Having lived with anxiety, navigated grief, and taken on caregiving responsibilities early in life, I became committed to understanding mental health not only intellectually but in ways that could support genuine coping and healing.
I understand what it can feel like to be stuck, lost, or caught in what seems like an endless loop of discouragement and emotional fatigue. These experiences have shaped the empathy and perspective I bring to my work.
Through my work with individuals from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds, I have come to believe that human resilience is universal. Even in the most difficult circumstances, people find ways to endure and move forward. As a therapist, my goal is to support you in rediscovering your inner strength—helping you find clarity, reconnect with yourself, and rebuild a sense of hope and trust in your path forward.

I am a registered psychotherapist who draws from a variety of different approaches. I am a mother of 4 children. I love to read, go hiking, meet new people, and traveling. I appreciate the steps that you are taking towards change and growth. I personally understand what it is like to come from a place of needing and asking for help. This awareness helps me to empathize and create a place for you to share your unique experiences. I would love the opportunity to provide a safe space for you to do so. It would to be an honor for me to help you re-write new chapters in your story. I provide a 15 minute free consultation in which you can determine if I am the right fit for you.

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.
