Josh is a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC #2981) with the Association of Cooperative Counselling Therapists of Canada (ACCT) and is a graduate of the Practitioners Training Program offered by Clearmind International Institute with a diploma in Transpersonal Therapeutic Counselling.
Josh’s Approach and Treatment Philosophy:
I believe in true connection with my clients, and I use an approach that is centered on relationship. To have you feel supported, reassured, encouraged, and sometimes literally cheered on. Our sessions will look to build your confidence, self-awareness, and the ability to enrich the relationships within your life.
Looking at both past and current experiences, as well as Emotional Processing, we will look to uncover the origins of your thoughts and feelings, and the triggers that can cause disruption in relationship with self and others. Growing the tools for Self-Regulation in those moments, gives us opportunity to deepen our connections with the community and world around us.

Melody’s Approach and Treatment Philosophy
I believe that with the right support, we can become more centered, resourceful, balanced, and confident. We can improve our ability to be more accountable for our lives, our choices, and our relationships. We can build the skills and tools needed to help us focus our energy and time on what truly matters, including ourselves. We can have the freedom to choose how we want to be in the world and it can authentically come from a place of vitality, wisdom, and generosity of spirit.
I practice from an anti-oppression, justice-oriented, feminist, and relational perspective. I draw on my own personal experience, my background in teaching, and my professional training. I believe in a holistic approach to counselling, drawing on several perspectives based on the individual needs of my clients. My intention is to provide a safe space and emotional support as you move toward your own personal growth and healing. A compassionate facilitator, I am here to encourage, support, and challenge you as we work together to reach your goals.
