Avery Brisebois

: I am passionate about building a safe environment where genuine and authentic connections are made. I understand the value of culture and inclusion and provide care that is culturally sensitive and LGBTQ+ affirming. Having a space where individuals can feel heard, valued and respected is the standard of care I want every person to feel.
Having someone walk with you in difficult times can help the weight of life feel less isolating. As a Master of Counselling Psychology Student, I understand that every individual is unique and each therapeutic relationship will respect and celebrate those differences through genuine curiosity. My goal is to work collaboratively with you in a way that feels authentic where we can identify strengths and work towards realistic and obtainable goals that can promote change.

Aden Kepford

My name is Aden, and I am currently completing my Master of Counselling Psychology at City University of Seattle in Edmonton. I hold an Honours Bachelor of Health Science in Biology from the University of Western Ontario, which informs my understanding of the many factors that shape well-being.

I have experience in community-based social work, supporting individuals with developmental disabilities in finding meaningful employment, as well as coaching youth and adults in badminton, where I focused on goal setting and long-term development.

In my work, I aim to create a space that feels steady, respectful, and open. I do not see people as problems to be fixed; rather, I believe thoughts, emotions, and behaviours make sense within the context of one’s life. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, grounded in the belief that clients bring valuable insight into their own experiences.

I view therapy as a place to slow down, make sense of what matters, and take steps toward meaningful change. I draw from a range of approaches to meet each client’s unique needs. My goal is for clients to feel heard, supported, and less alone as they move toward the life they want.

Isaiah Mykat

Hello, my name is Isaiah. I am a Master of Counselling practicum student at City 
University of Seattle. My Bachelor of Arts degree is from the University of Alberta, majoring in 
Psychology and Sociology. Working with me will show you how much I understand the amount 
of patience that is needed to identify and achieve your goals. My support in the collaborative working alliance between counsellor and client was validated by my own therapeutic journey in my youth. As an Indigenous man with lived experience on how to develop emotional regulation, distress tolerance and strengthening interpersonal relationships, my story advocates for how successful clients can become when they are ready to implement positive changes in collaboration with a guiding hand. Diversity fosters stronger ecosystems, which has heavily influenced my self-education on diverse cultures, including providing a safe space for the 2SLGBTQAI+ community. Often, behaviors that are perceived as problematic are not recognized for how they also serve as survival strategies to endure difficult situations. Therefore, I congratulate you on arriving as you are with the resiliency you possess. If you would allow me to bolster your momentum by providing a strengths-based, trauma-focused therapeutic approach with unconditional positive regard, I believe we can overcome barriers you may be facing and develop the tools you need to build a new reality of your choosing.

Ramneet Seera

My name is Ramneet Seera, and I am currently completing my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a specialization in Criminology from MacEwan University in Edmonton.
My frontline experience has given me the opportunity to walk alongside individuals as they navigate a wide range of challenges, including domestic violence, trauma, grief and significant life transitions. These experiences have reinforced my belief in the power of human connection, healing and growth, during life's most difficult moments. 
As someone with a diverse cultural background, I understand the importance of providing culturally responsive, inclusive, and trauma-informed care. I recognize that each person's autonomy and experiences are shaped by their lived experiences, and I am committed to creating a safe space where you feel seen and heard. I approach each therapeutic relationship with cultural humility as my goal is to foster a trusting relationship where we can work together to support healing and meaningful growth.
My approach to counselling is collaborative, compassionate, and trauma-informed. I believe that meaningful change is fostered through a therapeutic relationship where you feel safe, heard, and empowered to explore your experiences at your own pace as you are an expert in your own life. 
It is a true privilege to hold space for each of my clients as they invite me into their stories with courage and authenticity. Together, we navigate life's challenges, celebrate moments of growth, and create meaningful goals that foster healing, resilience, and lasting transformation. Walking alongside my clients on their mental health journey is an honour that I deeply value, and I look forward to supporting you as you take the next steps toward your well-being.
