Andrea Wiebe
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Hello, I’m Andrea Wiebe, a therapist passionate about supporting individuals, couples, and pregnant and parenting people navigating trauma, mental health challenges, relationship difficulties, and existential concerns.
I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health and Birth & Reproductive Trauma Specialist (CC-PMH, CC-BRT), an EMDRIA-trained EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist, and an ICEEFT-trained Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) therapist serving residents of Ontario, Canada. I am a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW) and a member of the Ontario Association of Social Workers (OASW).
I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of Toronto (2013) and a Bachelor of Social Work and Social Development degree from the University of Waterloo. Since 2013, I have worked with clients from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds in individual, couples, and family counselling across various social service and counselling agencies. In 2019, I transitioned to private practice to focus on supporting: couples seeking deeper connection, pregnant and parenting people facing new or unexpected challenges, and individuals healing from past trauma while navigating the pressures of modern life.
In my practice, I take a holistic approach that considers the interplay of mental, emotional, physical, social, spiritual, and environmental factors in each person and relationship. My therapeutic approach integrates EMDR, EFT, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).
I also draw on my lived experience of relationship challenges, mental health struggles, postpartum mood disorders, trauma, grief, parenting, and existential questioning. These experiences have shaped my approach to therapy, emphasizing practical guidance, compassionate support, and the empowerment of clients to see their situations differently, challenge unhelpful patterns, and create meaningful change.
Ultimately, my goal is to help clients feel safe to be authentic with themselves and their partner; communicate with curiosity; build confidence as a parent; problem-solve in a calm, non-judgmental way; live with self-awareness and compassion; heal from past trauma; release unhelpful beliefs and coping strategies; and cultivate joyful, meaningful lives grounded in love and connection with themselves and others.
I believe therapy is valuable for everyone, as no one is immune to life’s challenges. Speaking with a trained professional can empower individuals to overcome obstacles, achieve personal goals, and gain new insights into themselves and their relationships.
Please contact me if you would like to schedule a free consultation to ensure client-therapist fit and review important information before beginning therapy.

Wayne Dewhurst
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CAMFT
When life or relationships become difficult, having someone who can help you step back, make sense of what is happening, and find a way forward can make a real difference. Wayne brings a down-to-earth and thoughtful approach to therapy. He believes meaningful change starts with being able to speak honestly about what is going on and feeling genuinely heard along the way. His goal is to help clients gain perspective, have more productive conversations, and develop practical ways to move forward. If something in your life or relationship isn't working the way you want it to, Wayne offers a place to start.

Jamie Clahane | Psychotherapy & Pastoral Care (virtual)
Registered Psychotherapist, MTS, RP
Thanks for taking the time to learn a little more about me. I am a registered psychotherapist providing pastoral psychotherapy for people in Toronto and across Ontario. This means I specialize in integrating clinical counselling and spiritual care. Why is this important? It is important because healing involves the whole person. Yes, healing involves emotional & cognitive processing and integration around unresolved wounds in one's life, but the deepest healing involves more. When we face personal struggles or crises it is an invitation to find deeper meaning and hope in our lives. It is here that I provide Christian counselling to help build a foundation of wellness and hope.
In terms of psychotherapy, I focus on healing deeper issues that contribute to mental health symptoms. People may be struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or more complex presentations, such as obsessive compulsions, addiction patterns, complicated grief, emotional dysregulation, and more. Instead of simply learning how to manage symptoms, my approach is to gently uncover and work to heal deeper issues underneath these symptoms that often include shame and self-rejection, unresolved grief, emotional injuries or trauma, for example. As we recover we can restore a healthy sense of self, a deepened faith, and a restored hope for one's life.
