Elena Serra

Accepting New Clients In Person and Online.
“Everyone wants to hold the new baby. Who holds the mom?” Motherhood is the ultimate personal development experience, but it can be a lonely one. Whether you are preparing for motherhood, struggling to conceive, feeling scared or unsupported in your pregnancy, experiencing birth trauma, or suffering with feelings of depression or anxiety as a new parent, mental health in the perinatal journey is just as important as physical health and recovery.

Katarina Guillen
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Life can be tough, especially if you are feeling stuck, alone, disconnected, burned out, or like something is missing. It takes a great deal of strength and commitment to work on your goals and your relationships, and you have taken an important step in making a change by looking for support. I believe that our lived experiences impact the way we interact with ourselves and others. In exploring these experiences, we can learn to grow, improve our relationships and communication, gain a deeper understanding of ourselves, and create meaningful change.
I offer online individual youth and adult psychotherapy. I am here to provide support and guidance for difficulties such as strain in relationships, anxiety, self-criticism, difficulty setting boundaries, lack of intimacy and connection, difficulties related to parenting or family dynamics, or if you would like to develop emotional insight and emotion regulation skills. I may also be a good fit if you would like to strengthen relationships, work to live your life more aligned with your values and goals, heal past relational pains, develop assertive communication skills, work effectively towards your goals, manage stress or burnout, explore how to increase self-compassion, or develop emotionally informed parenting skills.
I am committed to creating a supportive, collaborative, and compassionate environment in which you feel safe to explore the challenges you are facing. I value meeting you where you are at in your journey, and exploring steps towards meaningful change in your life. Everyone’s needs are different, please reach out to see if I would be a good fit for you!

Ashley Bargent Coaching & Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, ACC (Associate Certified Coach)
You’re feeling stuck in your current career, maybe even burnt out. Every workday, it’s harder to get out of bed. You long for something more and can almost hear a little voice inside you whispering that you deserve it. You’ve tried changing jobs but still feel like a square peg in a round hole. The idea of change feels overwhelming, partly because you overthink and lose sight of how you really feel. You long for a job where your strengths will shine and you can live up to your potential, but you aren’t sure if there’s a job like that out there for you. You have a nagging worry that you will never find a place where you belong.
I have been where you are now. After getting burnt out, I received coaching that helped me find a fulfilling new career by becoming a coach myself. You can get through this with the right support, and I would feel honoured to provide that support.
