Sara Tawadros
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div in Clinical Counselling
Sometimes life can be very challenging, sometimes we feel like we are lost, unable to feel like ourselves, and struggling to enjoy life. Maybe an important relationship seems to be falling apart, or the loss of a loved one has brought about unbearable feelings of grief. Maybe a life transition is causing feelings of anxiety, depression, or inadequacy.
Whatever the reason, when painful emotions arise within, it can be hard to see a way forward, it can be difficult to experience hope. Thankfully this does not need to last forever. Together we can explore those emotions, understand their reason and work towards acquiring healthy coping skills. Such skills can help us manage life, allowing for a space to experience the beauty and wonder that life can bring.
I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for my clients to gain insight, recognize and explore their strengths and work towards reaching their full potential.
I am passionate about helping individuals wrestling with depression, grief, and postpartum difficulties, as well as individuals desiring to build a better self-image, develop confidence and effectively manage life transitions. I am also passionate about working with couples who desire to improve their relationship and those who are preparing for marriage.
I offer a 15-minute free initial consultation, so if you are wondering whether therapy would be beneficial to you or if we would be a good fit, schedule a call, and I would be happy to answer your questions.

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.

Lorna Barnes, Oak Tree Counselling
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CT, CPC
I find clients are looking to understand themselves, to find reasons they struggle the way they do, and discover how they got where they are. We've all been influenced by our experiences, whether good or bad. Good healthy experiences give us the tools and confidence to navigate life, but what happens when our experiences have been far from good? A child experiencing abuse, trauma, loss, and neglect believes they deserve it or it's their fault, not knowing the adults in their lives are responsible to help them feel secure and confident. Negative childhood experiences often throw individuals into feeling too much responsibility, becoming people pleasers, carrying much shame and guilt, feeling like a burden, social awkwardness, experiencing cognitive distortions, depression, addictions, loss of identity, anxiety and panic disorders, inter-relational problems, lack of confidence, and a lack of boundaries. Clients need to know they're not to blame and there's hope to experience a healthier and purposeful life, the life they were meant to have. Clients need to know they belong, they matter and are not a mistake. If you want to find freedom, purpose, contentment, and healing schedule a 30 minute free consultation to explore whether we'd be a good fit to journey together to a better you.
