When a family is ravaged by addiction - of any kind - everyone is affected and everyone needs to heal. At Love With Boundaries Addiction Family Counselling, we work with the family members first, so that they can make the changes they need to make to truly help the addicts they love. The results we achieve are amazing - the addicts and their families begin to make healthier life choices so that recovery from the devastation of addiction leads to their new way of life.

The Art Of Healing
Marriage and Family Therapist, RTC, CT
What makes my therapy practice unique is the way I blend clinical skill with real-life understanding. I don’t just offer techniques—I create a space where you feel genuinely seen, understood, and safe to be yourself. My approach is mindful, trauma-informed, and grounded in emotional awareness and nervous system regulation, helping you not only process what you’ve been through, but also build the tools to move forward with clarity and confidence. As someone who deeply values growth, resilience, and self-connection, I walk alongside my clients in a way that feels supportive, empowering, and real.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for something to shift—even if you can’t fully explain what that is—this is your sign to reach out. You don’t have to wait until things get worse to invest in yourself. Therapy can be the space where you slow down, reconnect, and start creating a life that feels more aligned, peaceful, and intentional.

Tehmina Ayana Meherali
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, CCC, CMHP
Healing happens in relationship and I create a heart-centered space for our work together. I have many years of experience working with clients on issues ranging from anxiety to relationship difficulties and life transitions. I use a therapy model called Internal Family Systems (IFS), which helps you understand the different parts of you that are experiencing challenges. For instance, there may be a part of you who is a perfectionist, or a part that may feel overwhelming anxiety. We get to know these parts of you in a compassionate and curious way, which helps you to get to the root cause. Through this clarity, a spaciousness opens up in your psyche and body, which can often lead to profound healing. I teach clients how to engage their mind, body, and spirit in the healing process.

Nicole Marek
Psychologist, Psychologist/Psychotherapist, OPQ
Post-pandemic life is certainly a new normal. I notice many people are having trouble adjusting to the changes, and cannot quite return to the life they used to know. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, I am happy to help you connect to your self, improve your functioning, determine your next moves, and move past any fears or insecurities that are holding you back. I specialize in LGBTQ+ populations, trauma recovery, improving attachment issues, and overcoming depression and anxiety. My preferred modalities are EFT, CBT, ACT, IFS, and SE.
