Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
As a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Director of Switzer Counselling & Psychotherapy Associates, I am passionate about providing compassionate, client-centered care that supports meaningful healing and personal growth. With over 20 years of experience in private practice, I have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families facing a wide range of emotional and relational challenges.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based practices and tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. I integrate modalities such as EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and personality disorder treatment to help clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, and process difficult life experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey built on trust, empathy, and authenticity. My goal is to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward lasting change and emotional well-being.
In addition to my clinical work, I am committed to supporting the growth of the psychotherapy profession through clinical supervision and mentorship of registered professionals and Master’s-level interns. I value ongoing learning, professional development, and fostering strong therapeutic relationships that promote healing and hope.

Kendra Anselmo Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I believe that our struggles make sense in the context of what we've lived through. Whether you're feeling stuck in patterns of anxiety, people-pleasing, self-criticism, or painful relationships, therapy can be a place to slow down, understand yourself more deeply, and begin to heal at the root.
My approach is relational, compassionate, and trauma-informed, integrating Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, mindfulness, and attachment-based perspectives. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, I work collaboratively with clients to explore the protective patterns that once helped them survive while creating space for lasting change.
I strive to create a therapeutic relationship where you feel genuinely seen, accepted, and supported. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you can reconnect with yourself, develop greater self-compassion, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, authentic, and connected.

Margot Hovey
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC (In process)
I’m embracing Eldership in my counselling practice: individuals, dyads, and families through transitions and challenges. Completing the M.A. Counselling Psychology program, I’m a deep listener and provide authentic feedback.
During our conversation your life story, influences, and challenges emerge. We’ll collaborate on how to best shape the life you want to lead.With a Ph.D. Integral Studies, my previous work focused on facilitating inclusion – racial, cultural, age, life stages, sexual and gender identity in our communities. Integral counselling weaves mind, body, and spirit into healing. I bring a deep appreciation of wholeness to our work.
Arising from lived family experience of becoming multiracial, embracing LGBTQ+, caregiving and mental illness, I’m called to work with seniors and families in transition. Shifts in family circumstances (illness, death, relocation, diagnosis, divorce, identity, dementia, retirement, renewal) affect the living family system. I witness and support your process.
