I am a Registered Psychotherapist and a Brainspotting Therapist who specialized in treating people with Anxiety, Depression and Trauma.

Morgan Mackenzie

I specialize in empowering young adults in their late teens, 20s, and 30s reclaim confidence, happiness, and fulfillment, despite the challenges of low self-esteem, anxiety, and relationship struggles.

If you struggle with feeling that you are not enough, thinking that something is wrong with you, self-criticism when you don’t meet impossible standards, constant comparison that leaves you feeling “less than”, or the debilitating need for external validation, approval, and desire to please others even it its at your own expense, I would love to play a part in helping you get to the root cause of your concerns and equip you with the knowledge and tools needed for lasting positive change.

Jules Hollett

I am deeply committed to creating a healing space where individuals can explore and navigate life’s challenges. My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and culturally-sensitive framework, recognizing the impact of diverse identities on mental health. Working collaboratively with both adults and teens, I offer support for a range of issues, from anxiety and depression, to Tourette’s and OCD, to the aftermath of trauma.

I believe that therapy is a space in which we work collaboratively to create a reparative relationship that nurtures and fosters insight, growth, safety, and resilience — a space in which one’s own innate internal reservoir of resources can be given the space and time to guide the way towards healing.
