Find a Therapist

Ala’a Founouni

As a male therapist and father to a young son, I’m especially passionate about men’s mental health. I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it can be to create safe, non-judgmental spaces where men feel supported in opening up and doing the deeper work. I also offer sliding scale options to help make therapy more accessible for potential clients who are being priced out of mental healthcare, something I care deeply about.

I’m a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) and Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with nearly a decade of experience in community counselling, support, and advocacy. I offer a down-to-earth, trauma-informed approach for clients dealing with stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, or relationship strain. I draw from CBT, DBT, and strength-based tools to help you better understand what you’re going through, cope more effectively, and move forward in a way that works for you. My style is warm, direct, and grounded in real-life experience.

My approach to counselling depends greatly on you and your experiences. Our work will begin by understanding your story, experiences and the resulting life that you’re living. Through getting to know each other and hearing about your experiences, we will use the information revealed to begin resolving your issues – be it helping you understand existing problems, manage difficult symptoms or adopt healthier ways of living and relating.

I believe the best results come from a strong relationship and a willingness to change and challenge your self. If you feel ready to take these steps, please reach out to see if we’re a good fit to work together. Have a nice day.

I aim to create a non-judgmental space where the relationship between client and counsellor is built on trust and mutual respect. I see therapy as a journey—one that requires patience, empathy, and a deep respect for your unique story. My approach is person-centered, meaning I believe you are the expert on your own life. You’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m here to support and collaborate with you to find a path forward that truly fits who you are and what you need.

Mr. Bernard Piprah

My approach is about exploring neglected strengths and inaccurate narratives to build awareness of subconscious habits that serve you no purpose. My trauma-informed, solutions focused approach aims to help you productively navigate through grief, anxiety, depression, relationship conflict and other life stressors. Together we are going to regain a healthier, more knowledgeable version of ourselves that has the resilience to manage life challenges.

Athina Lai

I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) with over 8 years of experience working in child welfare and healthcare settings. My passion lies in working with children and families, immigrants, and individuals facing mental and physical health challenges. I draw from various therapeutic models, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. By utilizing these approaches, I aim to provide client-centered, strength-based, and trauma-informed care, tailored to your unique needs.

Arthur Tiojanco

No matter what we may be going through in our lives, we should be able to take the time to slow down and take care of our mental, spiritual, and emotional health. Finding a person who can help guide you through those challenges and give you a sense of safety and support is important as we traverse our healing journeys.

I strive to create a safe and supportive space that is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration where my clients will be heard, empowered, and understood. I hope to join you in your journey and thank you for taking the time to learn a little about me and how I may be able to support you.

Freeman Woolnough

How do we know what works – and why? I believe that most people can ultimately provide the answers for themselves; however, it may take some exploration. I therefore use strategies that are evidence-based and research-driven, to help clients build resilience and develop effective coping strategies.
A counsellor is someone who is there to provide guidance and support in times of unmanageable stress. While our sessions may draw from various counselling approaches, including CBT, SFBT, and Narrative Therapy, the client ultimately provides the backdrop – and puts in the work – that leads to lasting change.

Jason Lam

Seeking counseling can be a challenging process and it’s important to work with a therapist that is the right fit for you. I thrive in working with individuals feeling overwhelmed, wanting relief, or seeking a deeper understanding of themselves. I primarily focus on mood, trauma and stress-related disorders such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, identity, self-esteem, and the effects of childhood abuse or neglect. During sessions, I often draw from CBT, mindfulness, attachment and neuroscience. The decision to look for a counselor often comes at a time of crisis. I understand and accept that it is my job to build your trust and create a space for you to process experiences, challenge barriers, and reclaim your story.

Andrew Wallace

One of the most noble pursuits and individual can have is to strive to lead a meaningful and purposeful life.  This can be an extremely difficult task, both in terms of determining what this personally means and then figuring out how to get there.  When we feel stuck and overwhelmed, other negative and self-limiting states also take shape including anxiety and depression, leaving us full of bad habits and desperate for change.  In the therapeutic work with Andrew, the aim is to uncover the root causes that inhibit fulfillment and to further apply practical strategies that will permit change and foster personal growth.

David Chacon Valenzuela

I believe in using our Diversity as an instrument to support people in their growth, rather than as a weapon to hurt ourselves and others. Therefore, I am committed to providing a respectful, safe, and welcoming space regardless of age, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, socioeconomic condition, disability, or religion.

I bring different theoretical approaches to my practice, such as Psychoanalysis, Family Dynamics Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focus Therapy (CFT) and Traditional Indigenous Cultural practices. Services in English and Spanish, in-person or video sessions, and a sliding scale as needed.

Dr. John Ogrodniczuk

My work is individually tailored to suit the person and the problem for which they seek consultation. I approach each client in a non-judgmental manner, being sensitive to the circumstances of their issues, and empathic to their experiences. Clients can expect to work within a collaborative relationship, and together we will clarify the primary issue(s) to be dealt with, set concrete and attainable goals, and regularly appraise your progress.
