Wes McVey

I specialize in working with men of all ages – particularly men with symptoms of ADHD, anxiety and depression – along with parents and couples.

I am a son, brother, husband, father, and counsellor. Before counselling, I worked mainly with young men as a probation officer over 12 years, and with adults at a residential drug and alcohol recovery program for five. I learned to listen first, and to build on clients’ existing strengths and motivation to help them change longstanding habits using evidence-based strategies. If you are ready to try a different approach and put in the hard work, then send me a message and we can talk about a plan.

Sandra Neil

I provide psychotherapy for various issues, including, but not limited to, childhood and adult trauma in all of its various forms, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, stress management, anger, and other related issues. I seek to support the client in a way that is individualized and, integrates the approach that is best suited to the individual, including, but certainly not limited to, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Ego-State Therapy, and other trauma-focused interventions. I enjoy working with all aspects of change and transition in one’s personal development and working with the client to address their specific needs.

Dr. Gloria Jacobucci

My approach typically includes managing current symptoms and addressing underlying causes. Interpersonal patterns are often at the heart of depression, so our work together may include a focus on improving relationships with family, friends, co-workers, and others. Remote therapy only.

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.

Mei Wong

My areas of specialization are trauma, depression, grief and loss, addictions, anxiety, self-esteem and relationship issues.

My passion lies in helping men find resilience and create a meaningful life so take your first step and call for a free consultation today.

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.

Bruce Avery

My name is Bruce Avery and I work as a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a Certified Sex Therapist (AASECT) and I’m the Founder of Avery Therapy Centre & Stellium Sex Therapy. I work with a wide range of people who may seek increased perspective, self-understanding, and clarity in their everyday lives. I also work with people who may feel that anxiety, depression, or past trauma is hindering them from achieving their goals.

When working with me, you can expect to be treated with respect, care, and compassion. It is my intention to develop a foundation of trust and security and an environment in which you can explore your inner world and feel more empowered. My practice is trauma and culture informed.

Vanessa Luis

Although I am a warm and bubbly individual, I’m available to discuss the difficult things we face as human beings. I strive towards holding hope for those who feel they have lost it. My goal is to walk alongside my clients as they cultivate healing, meaning, and inner peace. I offer professional, confidential, LGBTQ+ affirmative psychotherapy services for individuals, couples, and families. Some clinical issues I can support include (but are not limited to): Depression, Anxiety, Trauma and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Relationship Issues, Self-Esteem, Identity, Grief, Life Transitions (e.g., divorce, parenthood, retirement), Pain and Chronic Illness, Interpersonal and Coping Skills

Struggling with your sleep? You lay awake, for what feels like hours, only to fall asleep in short fits, punctuated by waking up in the middle of the night, just to try it all over again. Maybe you’ve tried pharmaceutical or over-the-counter strategies with mixed results. Thankfully, there is a substance-free way to treat sleep disorders and issues.

Our psychotherapeutic work will focus on applying the principles of cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBTi) to your particular situation. It’s not easy, but it gets results; with remission rates surpassing those seen in other disorders. Piqued your interest? Maybe your minds telling you it won’t work for you? Let’s chat about it over a consultation to figure out a path forward.

Brittany Sirtonski

Our biggest moments of crisis, when supported with care, consciousness, and insight, are in fact our greatest sources of personal growth and transformation. I help individuals to strengthen the resources they have within themselves, learn to navigate challenging and uncomfortable emotions and life experiences, and build resiliency to navigate through tough times. As you begin to more consciously navigate life’s ebbs and flows, I support you in moving towards a more comfortable, content and meaningful life.

Keely Honeywill

I practice from an anti-oppressive, intersectional feminist, and trauma-informed lens. To be grounded in anti-oppressive practice from an intersection feminist lens means recognizing and examining the harmful systems that impact individual’s mental health. Pain and suffering are not created in a vacuum, but rather experienced as a result of the unjust systems that influence daily living. These influences can include patriarchy, capitalism, colonialism, heteronormativity, and prescribed gender norms.

Alexia Spencer

Through my work, I realized how much pressure people experienced in their day-to-day lives and the effects this had on their relationship with themselves and others. Through my therapeutic work, I observed the consequences of society placing such a strong emphasis on perfectionism, a hyper-vigilance on “fixing” oneself, and external merit. Seeing adults, teens, and children struggling to understand their identity, self-worth, and values motivated me to gain expertise in various therapeutic modalities. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, and trauma, self-worth, identity, and relationships, and narrative as well as mindfulness approaches.

Kristen Hydes

My name is Kristen, I work from a trauma informed & intersectional feminist lens, recognizing the influence gender, sexuality and socio-economic status and culture can have on our experiences. I am passionate to work with men as I believe that feminism is for everybody, and men are also harmed by the harms of patriarchy, toxic masculinity and gender norms/expectations. I am an lgbtq2s+ and poly-friendly/ethical-non monogamy counsellor and am very enthusiastic about challenging heteronormative culture.

In addition to the framework I have shared, I also hold additional training in:
– EMDR
– Internal Family Systems (IFS)
– Psychedelic Integration & Embodied Inquiry
– Gottman (relationship therapy)
