Laura Farberman
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW
Therapy is the journey of becoming free to be ourselves. Instead of becoming a better version of ourselves, we can connect to who we are at our core, without the coping mechanisms we unconsciously took on to survive. These ways of coping, often wired into our brain and nervous system, can show up differently for each person. For you, it might be perfectionism, procrastination, an inner critic, low self-esteem or anxiety, to name a few. My approach combines the best of practical psychology, science and grounded spiritual psychology. I make the roots of complex emotions, behaviours and addictions accessible and actionable so that you can achieve sustainable change and true transformation. I am trained in Compassionate Inquiry, a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that reveals the patterns beneath how we present to the world amongst other psychotherapeutic modalities.
Through Compassionate Inquiry you begin to recognize the unconscious patterns, which show up as triggers, traumas and ways of coping and suppressing emotions, and how to become free from them. I support clients to reconnect with their bodies, via somatic experience. Benefits include, relief of symptoms of chronic pain, anxiety, depression and addiction.
Soulful Therapy is a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to psychotherapy and an effective way to begin down the path of introspection. It is a place to process what’s going on in your present, make sense of your past, or explore factors that may guide choices to cultivate a life that feels self-compassionate, vibrant, and authentic above all else.

Nicole Park
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (qualifying)
I believe that each person has strength and resilience within them. Sometimes we only need a helping hand to get there. I have helped many individuals discover this strength, find healing, and move towards the life they want to live. As a person-centred therapist, I believe in empowering individuals to discover more about who they are in a collaborative approach to therapy. I work hard to build trust and create a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to come as they are, and together, take steps towards health and recovery.
I provide a nurturing, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore challenges, strengths, and emotions freely. Through a collaborative, person-centered and strength based approach, we work together towards lasting wellness and positive change, gaining valuable insights along the way.
If you are interested in working together and want to learn more about my approach to therapy, I would be happy to talk with you. Feel free to call or email me to book a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we would be a good fit. I look forward to meeting you and working together soon.

Malik Smith
Registered Social Worker, MSW, BA, RSW
Do you feel overwhelmed by your emotions, trapped in cycles of unhealthy behaviours, or the impacts of past trauma? Do your emotions lead you to engage in patterns you wish you could break? I can understand these feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, and what seems to be uncontrollable, and I'm here to make them easier. If you are looking for clarity on why you feel this way and want to regain a sense of control or stability, now might be the time to reach out to a therapist who can help. Understanding your emotional and behavioural patterns is the first step toward change, and I am here to guide you through this process.
With over 7 years specializing in anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma, I have developed an understanding of how these issues can intertwine and complicate one's life. Together, we will explore the roots of your struggles, providing you with the knowledge and strategies to not only cope but thrive. Whether it's managing emotions, overcoming addictive behaviours, or healing from emotional pain, my goal is to empower you with the awareness and resources to move forward confidently. Reach out to discuss how I can support you.

Jane Husak
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, YTT, RP, CRPO
My approach is relational and experiential. I consider our therapeutic relationship to be a the centre of our work together. Through building trust and a safe space, we will be able to explore more deeply the areas in your life that are causing suffering. I believe there is a strength in our ability to be vulnerable and to feel deeply. Together we will work with the feelings that may be stuck or hidden, and how to integrate them as part of your whole human experience.
