Mélanie Pelletier Schrauwers
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CTP Dipl
Therapy is not about fixing what’s “wrong” with you. It’s about understanding how you came to be the way you are, and making space for who you want to become or simply exploring who that may be.
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist, and I work online with adults across Ontario, in English or in French. My approach is rooted in psychodynamic principles which allows us to build a strong therapeutic alliance then discover what makes each of us unique. My purpose is to help clients become aware of conscious and unconscious parts of themselves. Understanding patterns and behaviour while walking away from their shame. I value "parts work", which sees the different sides of us, like the part that works hard to protect you, the part that’s exhausted, and the part that’s hurting, as having something important to say. Together, we listen to each of them with curiosity and compassion rather than judgment.
I bring a diverse, equity-informed lens to my work. Your background, identity, and lived experience matter, and I want you to feel seen and respected as the whole person you are.
I have a special interest in "Food Trauma" or the relation between the self and food. Past experience of abundance or scarcity, cultural eating habits and other situation which may affect how we nourish our bodies and how we exist in them.
In our sessions, you can expect a calm, steady space where you set the pace. If you’re wondering whether we’d be a good fit, I’d be glad to hear from you.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Do you feel emotionally exhausted from always putting everyone else first? Perhaps you've been in a relationship with a narcissistic partner, struggle to set healthy boundaries, or feel trapped in cycles of perfectionism and people pleasing. You may look like you're coping on the outside while feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or never quite "good enough" on the inside.
You don't have to continue carrying everything alone.
I specialize in helping adults recover from narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and low self-worth. Together we'll work to understand the patterns that have kept you stuck, heal the wounds beneath them, and build healthier relationships with others and with yourself.
Many of my clients are caring, capable, high-functioning people who have spent years taking care of everyone else. They struggle with guilt when saying no, overthink conversations, question themselves after being gaslighted, or feel emotionally drained from unhealthy relationships. Therapy can help you reconnect with your confidence, trust your instincts, and create lasting change.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. I integrate evidence-based therapies while tailoring each session to your unique experiences and goals. My focus is creating a safe, supportive space where you feel understood, not judged.
I can help with:
Narcissistic abuse recovery
Emotional abuse and toxic relationships
Gaslighting and relationship trauma
Burnout and chronic stress
People-pleasing
Perfectionism
Self-esteem and confidence
Boundaries
Anxiety
Women's issues
Life transitions
Relationship concerns
I provide secure virtual counselling for adults throughout Alberta, making therapy accessible wherever you live.
For those looking to make significant progress in a shorter period, I also offer extended Therapy Intensives. These longer sessions allow us to work deeply on long standing patterns and accelerate healing in a focused, supportive environment.
Reaching out for therapy takes courage. Whether you're beginning your healing journey or have tried therapy before, I'd be honoured to support you. Together, we can help you move beyond survival and create a life that feels calmer, more confident, and more authentic.
