Colombe Mazerolle
Licensed Counselling Therapist - C
Are you struggling with intense emotions that feel overwhelming, ongoing conflict or disconnection in relationships or feeling stuck in survival mode or repeating self-sabotaging patterns? I'm Colombe, therapist at Ember Counselling Therapy, and I help individuals and couples build emotional balance, heal from past pain, and create healthier relationships.
Chris Graham
Professional Counsellor, MPCC-Provisional designation with the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association (CPCA).
I work with pilots and men in high-pressure careers who are navigating anxiety, burnout, identity challenges, or major life transitions. Many of the people I support are looking for counselling that is practical, confidential, and respectful of their professional context. For pilots concerns about career impact, medical implications often create hesitation around seeking support.
Matthew Pitts
Registered Psychotherapist
I work with individuals and couples, focusing on areas like anxiety, relationship conflict, career stress, and recurring interpersonal patterns. My approach is collaborative, reflective, compassionate, and direct when helpful. Drawing from experience in family law, finance, marriage, and parenthood, I help clients navigate conflict, stress, and personal growth.
Felicia Bibeau
Registered Provisional Psychologist
You wake up exhausted, struggle to get out of bed, and lie awake at night with racing thoughts. During the day you may doomscroll between commitments just to get through, feeling barely present. Daily tasks feel endless. On the outside you seem capable, but inside you feel empty. Together, we’ll harness your neurodivergent strengths, process trauma, and manage emotions, stress, and burnout.
