Hi there! My name is Tamara (she/her). I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and clinical intern completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology. I obtained my undergraduate degree from McMaster University, focusing on health, aging, and society. I have been working in the community health space for over a decade, focusing on supporting individuals with autism and their caregivers.

My goal is for each session to leave them feeling a little lighter and more grounded through a genuine, therapeutic connection.

I approach therapy from a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and person-centered perspective, recognizing that every individual is the expert of their own life.

Hello, my name is Robyn! I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying). I completed my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and received my Honours Bachelor of Arts from the University of Toronto in Cognitive Science, Psychology, and Buddhist Psychology. I also have experience working with youth with behavioural or learning disorders as well as with youth in the foster care system. 

When starting with me in the therapy room, I try to foster a down-to-earth, warm, and personable atmosphere so that we can both be our authentic selves. Starting with a new therapist can be intimidating, so my goal is to help make you feel comfortable and confident that I am there for you and able to help. I do this through maintaining a positive, non-judgemental, and compassionate view of you as my client. It is only after this first phase that we can explore the reasons you came to therapy and the goals you would like to work towards.

Going forward from here is when I would use some tools and interventions that might suit your needs and style, such as drawing from EFT, CBT, Mindfulness, DBT, Gottman, Psychodrama, somatic therapies, and solution-focused therapy.

Areas of Focus:​ - Stress, Anxiety & Depression - ADHD - Relationships, Family Dynamics, Couples/Marriage Therapy - Borderline Personality Disorder - Self-Esteem & Body Image - Children & Teen Issues

Hi, I’m Mike! I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) in Barrie and I am here to support you on your journey toward healing. I have completed my MA degree in Counselling Psychology and have also completed my BSc in Nursing where I have spent the last 5 years practicing as a Mental Health Nurse in Simcoe County. 

Life can feel overwhelming at times, as if it’s moving a million miles an hour while we struggle to keep up. But as one of my favourite authors, Carlos Whittaker, says: “We often say life is speeding us by, but I would beg to differ and say it’s us speeding life by.”

In the midst of life’s challenges, we sometimes need to slow down and be present. But being present also means facing what troubles us—something that can feel difficult to do alone. That’s where I come in. As your therapist, I will walk alongside you, helping you navigate those challenges with compassion and support. 

I work with individuals and couples 14+ and offer a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to your unique needs, including Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and person-centered therapy. Whether you’re seeking support for ADHD, relationship struggles, depression, anxiety, addiction, or burnout, I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental space for growth. I also have a keen interest in supporting professionals in high-stress positions such as first responders and nurses experiencing burnout or trauma. 

Areas of Focus:​ - ADHD (teens 14+ & adults) - Anxiety & Depression & Stress/Burnout - Emotion Regulation & Mood Management - Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) - Addiction - Relationship Issues

Hi, I’m Shailie! I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) dedicated to helping adults, youth, and children achieve positive change in their lives. I use a variety of therapeutic approaches, such as mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), mindfulness, expressive art therapy, eco-therapy, and more. My holistic counselling style recognizes the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit, as well as the impact our communities and relationship to nature has on our mental health.

In my practice, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their unique path towards healing and personal growth. I believe in empowering my clients to tap into their inner resources, strengths, and resilience to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. However, I also recognize that human beings require a circle of nurturing relationships that support our growth and healing to truly flourish.

As an artist and mental health advocate, I prioritize my own health and wellness through watercolour painting, and other activities such as being in nature, strength training, meditation, and Jiu Jitsu.

Hi, I’m Megan. I am a Registered Psychotherapist and have completed a BA in Psychology from Queen’s University and a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. I have extensive experience working with and supporting young adults, caregivers/parents, youth (6+) and families. I have a cordial and calming disposition that fuels a nonjudgmental curiosity of human personality and behaviour. I fully believe that everyone has the best intentions and is truly good inside. The outward expression of undesirable behaviours stems from internal distress or disconnect from our authentic selves.

I offer safe, responsive, and compassionate support so you can feel like you are being heard and are gaining the information you require to move forward. Exploring all angles of the issue, including your internal and external world, is my passion. I guide you in identifying your current responses/coping strategies, why they may not be working and how we can shift them to be more effective to create lasting change.

I am empathetic and supportive and employ an eclectic and holistic psychotherapeutic approach, mainly drawing from Emotion-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I also utilize Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness approaches in my work with clients, based on their unique needs.

My areas of focus: - Emotion & Behavioural Regulation - Neurodivergence (ADHD, ASD) - Mood Disorders - Anxiety/Stress/Burnout - Family Conflict, Parent/Child - Self-Esteem & Self-Compassion - Grief
