Many times, we expect our story to unfold in a certain way and so often this contrasts with the reality of our experience. Together we can create a safe space to navigate your experience. With a gentle and supportive approach, we can begin to understand your story and work together to address your personal goals for therapy.

Some things we may explore include negative or scary thoughts, self-esteem, challenges arising in motherhood, such as loss of identity, social isolation, not enjoying your days, working with difficult emotions, and overwhelming thoughts. Using self-care, mindfulness, and coping strategies, we will build confidence in your parenting role, resiliency, and empowerment to overcome the contrast between reality and experience, working towards a holistic view of self, sense of peace, and personal well-being.

Julia’s path to counseling began in the delivery room. During her years in Midwifery education, she supported countless families through labour and birth, and witnessed moments of profound joy, resilience, sorrow, and transformation. During long hours and on-call to facilitate deliveries, she also guided clients through NICU stays, perinatal complications, trauma, and stillbirth. Julia witnessed firsthand how deeply these experiences can impact the emotional health of both birthing parents and their partners.

Julia recognized that while the hospital attended to physical needs, often anxiety, grief, identity shifts, and trauma were under-supported. Grounded in this knowledge, she was led to pursue a Master’s in Psychotherapy and Counselling, where she now focuses on helping individuals navigate pregnancy, postpartum, and many other life transitions.

Her interests extend beyond birth, with passions encompassing areas of reproductive health such as endometriosis, PCOS, menopause, and other hormonal conditions that often affect identity and daily functioning. Julia also has a special interest working with neurodivergent populations, with a direct focus on empowerment, navigating healthcare systems, and strength-focused goal setting. With a background rooted in both medical understanding and emotional care, she strives to hold an empathetic space where clients feel supported, informed, and advocated for.

Julia focuses on a strengths-based, solution-focused lens in her work, integrating trauma-informed, person-centred, and somatic approaches.

She is committed to fostering a safe, collaborative space where clients feel understood, empowered, and supported in their goals. Julia offers flexible availability and a reduced rate.

Isabelle is a Registered Social Worker with over a decade of experience supporting individuals and families. Originally from East Africa, she identifies as a Black African-Canadian woman and now lives in Saskatchewan, where she is raising her three wonderful children.

Her passion for perinatal mental health is rooted in her own lived experience. After the birth of her youngest child, Isabelle struggled quietly with her mental health for years—unable to speak openly in a community where stigma made it difficult to ask for help. It wasn’t until attending a perinatal mental health conference in 2018 that she realized she wasn’t alone. That moment of connection and validation began her own healing journey and inspired her to support others through theirs.

Isabelle’s approach is grounded in trauma-informed practice, cultural humility, and anti-oppressive values. She draws from modalities including attachment-based work, Circle of Security Parenting, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. She has completed the Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders Certificate through Postpartum Support International and is currently pursuing her Perinatal Mental Health Certification.

Isabelle brings not only compassion and cultural understanding, but also structure and clarity to the therapy process. Her sessions are a blend of meaningful insight and practical tools you can take with you into daily life. You won’t just feel heard—you’ll leave with real strategies you can start using right away. Isabelle considers it a true honour to walk alongside others in their healing journey.

Outside of her work, she nurtures her own well-being through family time, prayer, meditation, gardening, reading, mentoring, cooking, and travelling whenever she can for what she lovingly calls “Vitamin Sea.”

From a young age Cynthia's nurturing and empathetic nature drew her toward helping others feel less alone in their struggles.
