Andrew Wallace
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.

You don’t have to carry this all on your own. I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor offering a space of refuge and belonging for men navigating shame, stress, disconnection, and self-doubt. If you feel stuck in emotional or relational patterns, overwhelmed or shut down inside, longing for connection but unsure how to feel safe in it – you’re not alone.
My practice is grounded in attachment theory, interpersonal neurobiology, and self-compassion. I work beyond traditional talk therapy by engaging the body and mind to support clients in moving beyond survival patterns into a more connected sense of self. While I support many queer and questioning clients, my practice is open to all men. A free consult is here for you when the time is right.

As a registered clinical counsellor, my style has been described as warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I work with men and people of any gender who experience suicidality, addictions, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, and a range of traumas. I am energized to work alongside folks who seek to live in alignment with their values. I use multiple modalities (ACT, DBT, parts work / IFS, and more) which are empirically supported, trauma-informed and respect your autonomy and choice. Many of my clients navigate disability and chronic pain. In working together, we will support you in building skills and new patterns on your chosen path of growth and change. I currently offer sliding scale/reduced rates.

Accepting NEW Clients (Individuals and Couples) – Are you feeling “stuck” in life and you’re looking for a way to better understand the steps forward? Have you heard of EMDR and you want to learn more about working through trauma and its impacts on your life? Is anxiety, stress, or low mood something you want to explore and learn strategies to cope differently? Are you a couple looking to work through infidelity, sexuality, or just simply want the skills to better communicate and understand each other?
I work with individuals and couples, where I also consider the impact of trauma and culture in the issues you’re looking to be supported with.

Jennifer Schine

Counselling helps us unearth our internal compass, also called our inner intelligence, intuition, or higher self, so that we can relearn how to trust ourselves again. This is important work. Together, I will help you develop your capacity to respond to life’s circumstances and manage the discomfort that you are experiencing. Our pain, anxiety, sadness, love, and joy all have important information for us. They can reveal what is required of us to heal, grow, and even thrive.
My counselling services are collaborative, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed while rooted in a holistic approach (body/mind/spirit). I draw from various theoretical lenses, including Existential, Adlerian, Internal Family Systems, Jungian, DBT, and CBT.
