In 2011, I completed a Masters of Arts in Counselling and have since been working in the field at the university level, non-for-profit and private practice settings. My experience includes coming alongside people who are struggling with anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, self-worth,
grief and loss, and childhood trauma.

I have been described as a warm, compassionate and welcoming person by those who know me. I enjoy being with people, hearing their stories and coming alongside them as they seek greater healing and wholeness for their lives and relationships.
I am also fluent in French and Spanish and I am available for counselling in these languages.

Registered Psychotherapist
Brooke Mason
Currently, I am a registered psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario. With the completion my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology, I want to be someone you can trust and who can support you through difficult times. Assisting you on your journey to make the changes in your life that will provide you with happiness is one of my main focuses. Throughout my experiences, I’ve worked with children who are struggling with emotional regulation as well as children with autism. As well, I work with individuals who experience anxiety, stress, self-doubts/ self-esteem issues, and those experiencing relational challenges, life transitions and depression. My goal is to help you feel like you are not alone while we go through this journey together. As we go through your journey together, I will help you by being empathically attuned, give you skills needed to help cope and overcome your challenges while giving you a listening ear. We will work together to create a plan that best suits your needs; I know life can be difficult but always remember “one thing at a time.”

Rachael Pogue
I am passionate about creating a safe, non-judgmental, warm, and supportive space by collaborating together to form a therapeutic alliance. I am currently completing my M.A. in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University and hold a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Guelph. As a new mental health professional, I am looking forward to supporting a diverse population consisting of youth, adults, and couples on their healing journeys.
I practice from an empathetic and eclectic approach, as I recognize that each person’s healing journey is unique. I incorporate mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy, person-centered therapy, and trauma-informed perspectives using talk therapy. I believe it takes courage and strength to reach out for help when you need it, and I am privileged to join you on your journey of growth.
Outside of working with clients, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, cooking, traveling, walking my dog, and meditation activities.
