James Watson-Gaze
Clinical Psychologist
I believe in the importance of helping you live the most fulfilling life possible. I aim to do that by working together to find out what matters most to you, figuring out what’s getting in the way of your fulfilment, and providing you with relevant tools and strategies to help you get there. I’ll work with you towards your goals while prioritizing collaboration and non-judgment in our sessions.
Brisha Marli Clark
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
I understand that we can all fall into cycles of negative self-thoughts and limiting beliefs. Inspired by Maya Angelou’s words—“you may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them”—I approach therapy with the belief that while we may not choose our hardships, we do have the power to grow through them.

Kumasi Jay Gwynne
Registered Psychotherapist
Relationships of any kind can be challenging. I never underestimate how complicated things can get once we tease out the relational pieces in our lives and try to understand how they are affecting us.
Parker Willis

Feeling anxious, burned out, or not yourself? Therapy at Turning Point can offer space to slow down and connect truly.

If you feel stuck in cycles of binge eating, dieting, guilt, or feeling out of control around food, you’re not alone. Therapy offers a supportive, non-judgmental space to understand what’s driving these patterns and build a healthier, more peaceful relationship with food, your body, and yourself.
Justine Little
Registered Social Worker
Do you feel like you're stuck in old patterns? Are you always zoning out or in crisis mode? Do you struggle to connect with your body and aren't quite sure what it means to feel your feelings? Would you prefer to work with a queer therapist with experience supporting 2SLGBTQ+ folks and who is committed to integrating social justice into therapeutic work?
Sara Antunes-Alves
Psychologist
I admire the courage required to choose therapy to navigate life’s challenges, and I first want to applaud you for your courage. Your motivation to the openness, vulnerability, and change involved in the therapy process is perhaps the most important predictor that therapy will be helpful for you. There is hope already in that.
Brendan McLarty
Master of Social Work (M.S.W, R.S.W) -Social Worker/ Psychotherapist
Encountering issues, no matter the severity, is a normal and natural part of our lives. However, I believe that our unique life experiences necessitate a personalized approach to help us achieve our goals in the face of adversity. One size does not fit all. Sessions with me are experiential, focusing on developing present-moment awareness of one’s inner and outer world.

Andrew Jobes
Registered Psychotherapist
Something’s not feeling right and it’s time for a change. Perhaps you want less stress and anxiety. Or maybe you’re tired of being held back by feeling “not good enough.” Or you want to improve relationships with friends, loved ones, and co-workers. You might not even be sure what’s wrong, but you’re at the point where you feel it’s time to reach out for help. You are not alone.
Nathalie Héloïse Graveline

Nurse (RN) since 1992; Nurse Practitioner (NP) since 2009. I created Even Keel Health, my private practice in 2018. My NP's professional experience is rich with an unusual combination of knowledge, skills and experiences.

Abby Tait
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
You might come to therapy feeling stuck in familiar patterns - ways of coping, thinking, or relating that once made sense but now feel hard to shift. You may be thoughtful and self-aware, yet find yourself overthinking, avoiding certain emotions, or feeling disconnected from who you are or where you’re headed. Questions about identity, values, and purpose often sit quietly underneath these experi…
Synthia Satkunarajah

I have been in the field of mental health for about 6 years now, and worked across many settings, including crisis lines, counselling centres, private practice, and hospital settings. I typically take on an integrational and evidence-based approach to therapy, where I combine elements of person-centred therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and parts work.
