Alex Boersen: Redline Recovery Counselling and EMDR
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I’m a Registered Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University and the founder of Redline Recovery Counselling and EMDR. I specialize in supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, burnout, addiction, men’s mental health, rural mental health, youth, and the unique challenges faced by first responders, healthcare practitioners, and frontline social service workers. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based therapies including ACT, CBT, Attachment-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing. I’m also trained in CBT for Trauma and EMDR.
I’ve worked in hospital, as a social worker with the OPP, and in community mental health. These experiences have deepened my understanding of high-stress environments. My time working with trauma has brought me to explore different avenues of healing, from EMDR to the emerging field of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy.
Originally from rural Perth County, I was drawn to this work through my own experience with mental health. I aim to create a safe, honest space where clients feel empowered to grow and reconnect with what matters most. Outside of work, I enjoy life with my wife, daughter, two dogs and stay active through running, weight lifting, fishing, and time outdoors.

Sonya Sethi-Rankin: Healing Matters Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RSSW
Life can be beautiful, but it can also be incredibly hard.
When pain, loss, or confusion take hold, it’s easy to get caught in cycles that feel impossible to break. Sometimes, no matter how capable you are, the weight of it all can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of who you are anymore.
In therapy, we slow things down. Together, we untangle the patterns that keep you repeating the same pain experiences — in your thoughts, in your relationships, or within yourself. Whether you’re facing trauma, anxiety, addiction, grief, or emotional exhaustion, you don’t have to do it alone.
My work supports individuals and couples through the moments that feel unbearable — helping you rediscover stability, clarity, and connection. Healing isn’t about erasing the past; it’s about transforming how you carry it, so you can move forward with strength, authenticity, and self-compassion.

Chelsey Yaremchuk - Low Cost Therapy (ADHD, ASD, Trauma, Anxiety)
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
SEPT. 2025 - Accepting New Clients! Low-cost therapy is available.
Life can feel heavy sometimes. If you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in old patterns, or navigating a major life change, Chelsey is here to help you untangle the mess and find your way forward. Whether you are navigating school or work troubles, self-esteem issues, or simply managing daily life, having the right support and direction can be beneficial.
Chelsey believes that therapy should be a place where individuals feel safe, comfortable, and free from judgment. Within this space, we can explore what’s holding you back, develop tools that work for you, and create a lasting change.
Her experiences of working within school boards as an educational assistant have allowed her to understand multiple exceptionalities and disabilities in many different aspects. Working with ages 7 and up, she brings years of experience to help support clients with autism, ADHD, intellectual disabilities and co-occurring mental health concerns. Bringing strength-based, inclusive approaches to every session. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all, and Chelsey will collaborate with you to ensure the best fit.
Together, we can work closely in a safe and supportive space, drawing from approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based talk therapies. These methods help us explore thoughts, emotions, and behaviours with curiosity and compassion, empowering you to build insight, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful change at your own pace.
Outside of the office, Chelsey finds joy in the little things that bring comfort, connection, and curiosity. She has a deep love for true crime documentaries and podcasts, often intrigued by the psychology behind human behaviour. A lifelong Harry Potter fan, Chelsey enjoys revisiting the magic of the wizarding world, whether through books or films.
In her downtime, you'll often find her curled up with a good book, challenging herself with a puzzle, or spending quality time with her close-knit circle of friends and her two beloved dogs. She also has a soft spot for horror movies — the scarier, the better — and appreciates the way they can offer both thrill and escape.
These interests not only bring Chelsey joy but also reflect her natural curiosity, creativity, and appreciation for stories, which she brings into her therapeutic work with empathy and authenticity.

Moeez Munshi
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying, Clinical Intern
I believe in the power of personal growth and self-discovery. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, respect, and a deep appreciation for each person's unique journey. I understand that life's challenges, whether it’s navigating relationships, dealing with past trauma, or managing anxiety, can feel overwhelming. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where individuals can explore their experiences, uncover their strengths, and work through difficulties at their own pace. Together, we will build a path forward that fosters healing, hope, and resilience.
I offer a safe, compassionate space for individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Using a blend of evidence-based approaches, including cognitive-behavioural and humanistic techniques, I work collaboratively with clients to help them gain clarity, overcome
challenges, and develop practical strategies for lasting change.
If you're feeling unsure or facing challenges, I invite you to get in touch. I'm here to listen, answer any questions you may have, and support you in your journey. If we’re not the right fit, I can help connect you with the right resources and guide you toward finding the support you deserve.
