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 founder of Redline Recovery Counselling and EMDR. I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, burnout, addiction, trauma, relationship issues, and life transitions. I especially support men, youth, rural communities, and those in high-stress roles like first responders, healthcare workers, and frontline social service staff, creating a space where clients feel safe, understood, and supported.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and combines evidence-based modalities with insight from my own mental health journey. Using therapies like ACT, IFS, CBT, attachment-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, CBT for trauma, and EMDR. I ask people to come in with honesty, an open mind, and a willingness to change and participate in trying something new.
I’ve worked in hospitals, with the OPP, and in community mental health, giving insight into high-stress and crisis settings. I also provide ketamine-assisted therapy with Field Trip Health Waterloo. Originally from rural Perth County, I enjoy life with my wife, daughter, two dogs, and staying active through running, weight lifting, fishing, and the outdoors.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center is a practice built on the belief that healing takes time, safety, and depth. We are not a quick-fix model. We integrate neuroscience, attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and faith for those who desire it, so that change is not just behavioural but transformational. What sets us apart is our commitment to long-term relational work, nervous system stabilization, and whole-person care. We look at the patterns beneath the symptoms, the story beneath the survival, and we create a space where individuals, couples, and families can slow down enough to heal from the inside out. We are steady, clinically grounded, and rooted in the understanding that sustainable change happens when people feel safe enough to be fully seen.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
Personally, I understand what it is like to grow up in a difficult family which resulted in much trauma. As a young adult, I made a series of problematic choices which included abusive relationships, alcohol and drug abuse, and general neglect of myself. I realized that my trauma was not my fault but healing from it, so that I no longer suffered and passed that suffering onto others, was my responsibility. My wellness journey has been long and hard fought, and continues today and will forever more. The work is necessary, as all healing is possible. My hope is to share both my personal and professional knowledge and experiences with others to help guide them on their own journeys towards their own healing.

Sunlight Counselling, Melody Mann
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I’m a registered social worker and psychotherapist who helps people navigate life’s hardest seasons — burnout, trauma, grief, and chronic illness. My approach is grounded in compassion and curiosity, creating a space where you can exhale, be seen, and begin to heal at your own pace.
I draw from EMDR, parts work, and mindfulness-based approaches to support the body and mind’s natural capacity to heal. Together, we’ll explore not only what hurts, but also what helps — uncovering new ways of relating to yourself, others, and the world around you.
Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply exhausted by doing it all, therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect with your strength, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and sustainable.

Ms. Clare Pentelow
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W.
Therapy can be a very vulnerable process, and it is important to feel that you are in a safe space in order to do this important work. I believe my warm, authentic approach allows my clients to feel comfortable opening up about the difficult issues they are facing. i work with my clients to deeply understand their goals, experiences and personalities and support them in both processing emotional wounds, and coping with the difficult feelings and situations they are dealing with in the present.
