35 Years of Helping People Transform Their Lives
For more than three decades, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people as they navigate change, healing, and personal growth. My work as a therapist has shown me the incredible depth, resilience, wisdom, and goodness that exists within every person. The connections I’ve built with clients — and the positive changes I’ve witnessed — have given my own life profound meaning.
If you’re ready to better understand yourself, heal, and create a more fulfilling life, I’m here to help.

Shane Smyth
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, OACCPP
I specialise in couples therapy. I love helping couples improve their relationship by increasing their ability to communicate openly and lovingly. I am trained in Gottman Couples Therapy to Level 3 and am a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist. I have also completed several sex therapy intensive trainings. I have over 15 years helping couples. Sexuality and desire discrepancies are something that I enjoy working it as this often becomes a shut down topic for couples. I try to make therapy as accessible and easy going as possible. I believe that everyone has the right to have a rich and meaningful life and through therapy I hope to provide clients with the space and skills to access their own inner resources as well as build meaningful relationships.

I am a warm and accepting therapist who works with adults, teens and children. I'm dedicated to creating a safe space where you feel seen, heard, and valued.

Resilient Roots Therapy - Social Work and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MA, RP
At Resilient Roots Therapy, we are person-centred and trauma-informed, meaning our work will be grounded in respect, empathy, and your own unique strengths. We integrate a variety of effective modalities, including narrative therapy, somatic work, Mind-Body Attunement, neuro-linguistic approaches, and internal family systems. These forms of therapy are highly effective in normalizing the mind-body connection and supporting the healing of emotional wounds, including intergenerational trauma.
I have been in the mental health field for 11 years. Throughout my career, I’ve been on my own journey of identity learning, understanding that identity is something we come into rather than something we find. As a queer Black woman, I am keenly aware of the unique challenges faced by people of colour, queer, trans, and non-binary folx. My intent is to not only create a safe space for all my clients but also a brave space where genuine transformation can occur.

Autumn Shaw
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) dedicated to creating a safe, affirming, and non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, valued, and supported. I believe meaningful healing begins through authentic connection; therefore, my approach is grounded in empathy, trust, collaboration, and respect.
I currently pursue a Master of Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University and hold an Honours Bachelor of Health Sciences from University of Ottawa. In addition, my professional background in special education and community engagement has allowed me to support youth with diverse abilities while advocating for inclusion, accessibility, and systemic change.
