Matthew Pitts
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
Let's explore negotiating the reality you want, healing and tools to strengthen your mental health. Therapy can be an empowering space, including for your relationship, career, men's issues, self-esteem, assertiveness and transformation goals and challenges. I offer an oasis to safely learn more about yourself and grow, protected by confidentiality and unconditional positive regard. My life experience includes having worked as a family law lawyer for over four years and work in finance as a buy-side Analyst, and I’m a husband and father. I offer individual therapy, couples therapy and family therapy.
As a co-traveller within sessions, I focus on creating that crucial empathetic environment where we can explore underlying patterns that impact how you act and think, and the building of the empowering alternatives you want. Therapy with me is grounded, collaborative, compassionate and real.
Starting therapy is courageous. Your story, goals, hardships, feelings, values and desires matter, and we can discuss tools you can use towards your mental health and therapy goals. If this resonates with you, please let me walk alongside you in your journey of healing, self-discovery and empowerment.

You don’t have to navigate this alone. Think of me like your GPS: you set the end spot, and I will guide and redirect you along the way.
Hi, I’m Chelsey, a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), and I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to explore what’s holding you back and build the life you want. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs.
I work with adults, teens, couples, and families who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, trauma, and life transitions. Together, we’ll identify patterns, develop practical coping tools, and strengthen your sense of confidence and resilience.
My background includes experience in educational and community mental health settings, supporting children, adolescents, and adults with diverse emotional and learning needs. This allows me to bring a holistic, strengths-based perspective into my work.
I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centred Therapy. Sessions are always adapted to fit your goals, comfort level, and pace. I believe therapy works best when you feel truly understood and supported.
Outside of work, I enjoy reading, true crime documentaries, spending time outdoors, and being with my dogs. I bring authenticity, curiosity, and genuine care into every session.
If you're ready to take the first step, let's chat. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to ensure we'd be a good fit for each other. I look forward to meeting you!

Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
Living with chronic illness, ADHD, or autism can feel like moving through a world that wasn’t built with your needs in mind. The pressure to mask, push through, or repeatedly explain yourself can lead to immense grief, anxiety, depression, burnout, loneliness, and a deep sense of feeling unseen and misunderstood.
As a neurodivergent therapist with lived experience of chronic pain, and a parent to neurodivergent children, I understand the emotional and physical toll daily life can take. This is why I offer a therapeutic space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment or pressure to perform. Instead of seeing chronic illness and neurodivergence as something to be “fixed,” I believe people often need supportive tools and thoughtful guidance to live in ways that honour their unique needs and nervous systems.
My work is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, guided by empathy and curiosity. Together, we move beyond temporary symptom relief by uncovering how past relationships and experiences shape your current reality (thoughts, behaviour, emotions). This approach fosters insight and self-awareness in an accepting environment, opening the door to lasting, meaningful change.
If this resonates, I invite you to reach out for free 30-minute virtual consultation to see if we are the right fit for your therapeutic journey.

Jennifer Morley
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA, BSc, BA, CCPA
It’s not easy being human right now. Especially when you’re carrying anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, or the quiet exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for everyone else. I work with individuals and couples who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves or the people they care about, and who are ready for meaningful change.
My approach to therapy is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, helping clients build insight, emotional regulation, and healthier patterns in relationships. I place strong emphasis on safety, trust, and understanding the whole person, not just the symptoms that brought them to therapy.
I have extensive experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, high stress, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you don’t have to perform, explain away your feelings, or have it all figured out. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and work toward greater clarity, connection, and emotional ease.
