“If we don’t transform our pain, we will transfer it to others, through our words, our actions, and our energy.”
Natasha Cowie
“Real healing begins when we listen to the quiet wisdom of the body—letting it lead us, shift us, and return us to the love we were made from. The journey isn’t about control—it’s about trust.”
Tara Shafiepour
Rumi once said, “As you start to walk on the way, the way appears.” Clarity isn’t something that precedes action; it emerges through it.
Rumi
13th-century Persian Mystic and Poet
“If we know the practice of mindful walking, mindful breathing, mindful dealing with pain, sorrow and anger, then we can improve the quality of our actions, of our life, and of our days, months, and years.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
Global Spiritual Leader, Poet and Peace Activist
Some Evidence-Based Therapy Modalities We Use
Discover a holistic approach to healing and transformation.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a practical, goal-oriented approach that helps individuals identify and change unhelpful thoughts, behaviours and patterns..
Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
Rooted in attachment theory, EFT focuses on identifying and transforming negative patterns, fostering deeper connection, trust, emotional awareness, and resilience.
Somatic Therapy
Somatic therapy is a body-centered, trauma-focused approach that gently works with the nervous system and stored trauma in the body to support deeper regulation, resilience, and lasting emotional healing.
Psychodynamic & Psychoanalytic Therapy
These modalities explore how unconscious patterns, early experiences, and deep emotional processes shape present-day thoughts, feelings, and relationships.
Clinical Hypnotherapy
This modality uses guided relaxation and imagery to access the subconscious mind, helping individuals overcome challenges, change unhelpful patterns, and promote healing.
Reiki
Reiki is a gentle, hands-on (or off) energy healing practice that supports physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. During a session, universal life force energy is channeled to help reduce stress, promote deep relaxation, remove energy blockages and encourage the body’s natural healing processes.

Tara Shafiepour RP, Reiki Practitioner, C.Hyp, CRPO
My purpose is to support you in releasing old traumas, fears, energetic blocks and limiting thought patterns that keep you from living a liberated and fulfilled life. I take a holistic approach to therapy, drawing on spiritual practices and psycho-education, including, but not limited to, reiki and hypnotherapy, to help clients work through life’s challenges with greater balance and understanding. My priority is to make therapy a safe space for you to express yourself freely, without fear of judgement, and to support you in the pursuit of fostering a compassionate relationship with yourself and those around you.
Natasha Cowie RP(Q), CNO, SSW, CAPT, CRPO
Life has its share of ups and downs. I have seen darkness and experienced light. In life, people face many struggles, heartbreaks, and life transitions. I am a firm believer that your life experiences, culture, heritage/ancestry, family, genetics, and religion help shape your beliefs, behaviors, and perspectives in life. I am committed to exploring this journey with you. Therapy is not an immediate fix, nor is it an easy fix to embrace. As a wounded healer, I will embrace you as you discover a deeper understanding of your personal journey with hopes to achieve some sense of comfort, relief, and or direction.
