As a professional musician and tree planter, Harley spent his adult life living, travelling, and playing across Canada, building friendships, making art, and doing deep healing work with many brilliant folks along the way. As a student Counsellor at Rhodes, Harley offers a profoundly safe and supportive environment to unpack and heal whatever is holding you back from living in alignment with your most authentic self.

On top of this Harley has a deep knowledge of ADHD and is skilled at providing support for how to navigate the world with a neurodivergent brain.

Harley’s core values are grace, accountability, adventure, and authenticity.

I am passionate to help with any and all clients. I love to focus on re framing and helping people highlight their strengths and how capable they really are. I love CBT and goal setting.

I adore the self discovery of these two facets and would love to have the honour of guiding individuals to uncovering their own unique realizations. Also having worked in the restaurant industry for 11 years I have a unique and personal perspective of the struggles and emotional tole of this line of work. I would be excited to work with clients who need guidance and encouragement in this area as well.

Christopher Armstrong was born in Aotearoa New Zealand in the 1980s.

After decades spent working across a wide variety of media fields; journalism, film and television, radio and print, he realised the unifying theme through all these career paths was people and their stories, and helping them take ownership and bring about positive change in peoples lives.

Immigrating to Canada in 2023, and training to be a counsellor seemed the natural end to a process of weaving his many career threads into a rope to help people pull themselves up to the type of life they want to live.

Hello and welcome. It is my desire to create safe spaces for humans of all kinds to open and soften to their experiences. We hold so much from our upbringings and I deeply believe in the healing power of vulnerability, the strength in owning our choices, and the resilience of our spirits.

Wellness includes many facets of life that are interdependent. My passions include slowing it down, getting out of our heads and connecting to the body using somatic techniques, nervous system regulation so we develop the capacity to manage discomfort and change, emotional regulation tools, and mindfulness surrounding our thoughts and internal narratives.

Having come from a background with instability and chaos I understand the value of feeling safe, seen, and heard, and I aim to extend that to my clients as I walk alongside them in their journeys.

I have had a keen interest in mental health and psychology my whole life, partly because I always wondered why I felt so different from other people… Now that I can make sense of my own inner world (most of the time!) I want to help others do the same.

As a Counsellor, I pull from multiple modalities I have learned along the way- however- I don’t want to do traditional “talk therapy.” I want to tap into the knowledge of the body- by doing this we can start embodying what we truly value and desire- and come home to ourselves. I want to slooooow it down. (Enter Benson Boon, no front flips required) If this sparks, your interest, feel free to reach out :)

I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with themselves and those they care about. Through Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and trauma-informed counselling, I work with individuals to heal emotional wounds, understand the patterns that run their relationships, and build emotional intelligence to foster real growth. In our sessions, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can make sense of your experiences. Together, we’ll work on strengthening your connection with yourself and others, healing past hurts, and finding new ways to build resilience. My aim is to help you break free from old emotional patterns and experience deeper, more meaningful relationships. We’ve all experienced times where we get stuck in the same old relationship patterns—whether it’s avoiding difficult emotions, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or falling back on unhealthy coping strategies. Many of us were never taught how to navigate these feelings. By learning to identify and express your emotions, stay present in the moment, and break the cycle of those patterns, you can begin to create the change you want in your life. I’ll guide you through this process with a personalized approach, so you can not only manage your emotional challenges but also transform them into opportunities for growth.

My role involves holding an openness that is responsive to what’s needed in the moment. When what’s most needed is a technique from modern therapeutic modalities, I’m happy to offer that up. And…if what’s most useful in the moment is to throw out all those tools for something much more subtle - or much more unconventional - I’m happy to do that too. Maybe we sit quiet as ancient monks. Maybe we talk through how your last Ayahuasca journey or deep meditation cracked you open. The whole approach rests on a foundation of deep listening: going slow, really taking in what’s happening to and for you….letting it all settle in slowly like rain water soaking into rich fertile soil. Giving space for words, feelings, difficulties to come to ground…maybe even discovering some hidden sacredness in that. No hurry, no advice, no expectations.

As a Student Counsellor with Rhodes Wellness College, I am passionate about helping others find their way through life’s messy, and beautiful challenges. Drawing from a wealth of life experience and a background in Early Childhood Development, psychology, counselling and coaching, I hope to bring a compassionate, intuitive perspective to my work.

Currently balancing my continued studies in Mental Health while welcoming new clients, I support others with empathy, understanding, and an intuitive approach that meets people where they are.

My personal experiences include navigating (and surviving) divorce, parenting (and surviving) a spirited, charming, and oppositional ADHD child, and supporting a courageous transgender child. I have also explored alternative relationship dynamics and overcome struggles with depression, anxiety, and life transitions, all of which deepen my ability to connect with clients on a truly meaningful level.​

I enjoy working with clients from diverse backgrounds and experiences, including LGBTQ2S individuals and parents, individuals navigating ADHD, and those in alternative relationship dynamics. I offer a safe and affirming space for everyone to explore their challenges and strengths, creating a practice rooted in authenticity, inclusion, and deep respect for each person’s unique path.​

When I am not working, I love to transform spaces into cozy sanctuaries, caring for my ever-growing collection of houseplants, and pouring my heart into my writing. A bookworm and self-proclaimed Netflix connoisseur, I treasure the comfort of home and the chance to explore new ideas (preferably with a good cup of iced coffee in hand).

As a student counsellor at Rhodes Wellness College, I am deeply committed to creating a compassionate and supportive space for my clients. My approach is heart-centered and intuitive, blending evidence-based practices with a deep understanding of the human experience.

My journey into counselling is rooted in both personal and professional experiences. As a mother of two special needs children, I have navigated the complexities of the healthcare system, advocacy, and the emotional challenges that come with it. I also understand the profound layers of marriage. Its joys, its burdens, and the silent struggles many women face within it. Having experienced the challenges of maintaining identity, navigating relationship dynamics, and healing from emotional wounds, I bring a deep sense of empathy and understanding to women seeking clarity, strength, and self-trust in their relationships and personal growth.

I am passionate about supporting women and families, particularly those facing life transitions, trauma recovery, and parenting challenges. I believe in meeting people where they are, honouring their unique stories, and guiding them toward meaningful change with empathy, presence, and understanding.

I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey of growth and healing.

Shaun works with teens and adults. He specializes in trauma, depression/anxiety, relationships, grief/loss, life transitions and work/life balance. Living on a boat access only island and building a cabin in the woods is what most men would call an amazing life. This is the reality he has created for himself. Although it wasn’t always the case; he grew up in a chaotic environment of abuse which causes many souls to settle or check out of life. He has come to realize his upbringing was a blessing in disguise, it caused him to be very introspective. That coupled with being a jiu jitsu practitioner and fitness enthusiast has taught him how to examine his own mind when placed under pressure. This has given him great insight into his clients mindsets and where they’re getting stuck, and in turn has provided understanding as to what methods and techniques work best in certain situations.

Hi, I’m Sara, and I’m so glad you’re here.

If you’ve been searching for a holistic approach to healing—one that sees you as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms—you’re in the right place. I am a Holistic Counsellor-to-be, Life Coach, and Nutritionist specializing in integrative mental health for PTSD and complex trauma. My work is deeply informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), Polyvagal Theory (PVT), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Shamanic Healing, and Nature-Based Therapy (NBT), creating a personalized healing experience that nourishes the mind, body, and spirit.

Healing is not just about surviving—it’s about thriving.

Over the past 15+ years, I’ve worked with people from all walks of life, helping them reconnect with their inner wisdom, process trauma, and transform adversity into resilience. My practice is a place for holistic care, allowing clients to build safety and trust while addressing their mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.

My Journey: From Survival to Thriving.

My passion for trauma counselling is deeply personal and was catalyzed by a distinct life transition. As a PTSD and complex trauma survivor, I know what it’s like to feel lost, overwhelmed, and disconnected. A pivotal moment in my life came when my family and I survived a Category 5 hurricane, experiencing profound loss and displacement. That experience ignited my commitment to understanding trauma on a deeper level—not just emotionally but physiologically and spiritually.

This path led me to explore various healing modalities, from traditional psychology to functional medicine, somatics, psychedelic preparation and integration and ancestral wisdom. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and am currently completing a Professional Counsellor Diploma at Rhodes Wellness College—a program that aligns with my belief in experiential, practitioner-based learning. I am also a Certified Holistic Nutritionist, Life Coach, Integrative Mental Health Medicine Provider, Functional Medicine Practitioner and Somatic Plant Medicine Integration Coach. My practice interweaves the worlds of functional health, mental health and trauma.

A Global Perspective on Healing.

Having lived and worked in Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago, the Commonwealth of Dominica, Costa Rica, Canada, and Mexico, I deeply understand culture shock, reverse culture shock, migratory grief, and the mental health challenges of expats, immigrants and cross-cultural families. My work supports individuals navigating these transitions, fostering resilience and empowerment in unfamiliar landscapes.

I am also a homeschooling mother of two, which gives me a unique perspective on parenting, education, and family dynamics. I provide parenting support, homeschooling/unschooling coaching, and guidance for Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs), helping them embrace their sensitivity as a strength.

Let’s Begin Your Healing Journey.

From personal experience and professional expertise, I offer a compassionate, client-centered space where you can reclaim your story, reconnect with your body, and step into a new chapter of life—one filled with nourishment, empowerment, and self-discovery.

If this resonates with you, let’s connect for a free 15-minute Discovery Call. Together, we can create a path forward that honours who you are, where you’ve been, and where you’re meant to go.

You deserve to thrive. Let’s begin.

Hi! I’m Anne/An. I am a mixed race settler on Unceded Territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. It is important to me to acknowledge these lands as a part of my ongoing practice in decolonizing spaces, specifically in spaces where colonial practices have caused harm.

I have been working in the DTES for 3+ years as a harm reduction worker, and am familiar and comfortable around topics of abuse, trauma, addiction, and systemic racism and/or poverty. My approach to counselling is always trauma informed and client led. I use a variety of different modalities, but mainly pull from narrative approach; where the problem is viewed as the problem, and that the client is not the problem.

I have always had a deep appreciation and curiosity for the complexities of human experiences and trust that everyone has a unique and important story to tell.

I believe that healing is relational. We aren’t meant to be shut off emotionally. As humans, we possess these innate capacities for feeling and it is our birthright to live deeply connected lives - connected to ourselves and to each other. When we suppress these aspects, we suppress our very nature.

You can expect a non-judgmental space where we work together to explore what is most meaningful to you.

My particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to: supporting individuals navigating grief, and loss, death and dying, trauma, and creating more purpose in life.

I look forward to meeting you!

Brooklyn’s life’s work is to empower healing from within.

Through intimate experience in loss manifesting in poor health and chronic nervous system dysregulation, Brooklyn’s passion emerged in the mind body connection. She holds a compassionate appreciation for the complexities of healing in a culture that separates the immune system from the emotional system and therefore views counselling as healthcare.

Brooklyn holds immense reverence and gratitude to whom she regards as her greatest teacher, Gabor Maté. Her open-minded healing journey was fostered through his guiding principles. It is her purpose & mission to embody his teachings and empower others to reclaim their authenticity, agency and connection to self.

In working with Brooklyn, you can expect an all-embracing theme of compassionate curiosity creating an environment that prioritizes safety above all. Brooklyn believes that when we feel safe, our bodies know what to do, through that safety we can unlock wisdom beyond our mind. Brooklyn is enthusiastic about the healing potential of exploring awareness, beliefs, attachment vs authenticity, coping mechanisms, and the ability to say no. She holds a passionate interest in the positive healing potential of turning towards gut issues, body pain & nervous system health in the counselling setting.
