Our Approach Is...
Comprehensive Care
We believe people thrive when care supports the whole person—mind, body, spirit, and relationships. Together, we’ll create a thoughtful and comprehensive plan that honours each part of you, helping you find balance, purpose, and a deeper sense of meaning in your life.
Juniper Counselling offers a highly organized and collaborative team environment. Our intake process thoughtfully matches clients with the right therapist based on need, specialization, and availability. We maintain a clear internal structure, including clinical supervision, intake coordination, and peer consultations. Each therapist is supported with ongoing mentorship, professional development, and a unified approach to client care.
Culturally Responsive
At Juniper Counselling, our culturally responsive approach to therapy is rooted in curiosity, humility, and respect. We recognize that each person’s story is shaped by their culture, community, identity, and lived experiences—including experiences of oppression, displacement, and resilience. Instead of a one-size-fits-all model, we offer therapy that is relational, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive, honouring your values and traditions while holding space for healing. We’re committed to ongoing unlearning as clinicians so that every client feels seen, respected, and safe to show up as their full self.
Collaborative with Multi-Specialist Access
Our approach is client-centred and therapist-guided. We’re not here to tell you how to live—we’re here to support a process that helps you uncover what’s holding you back and move toward the life you want and deserve.
Juniper's team includes 13 diverse clinicians with specialties across anxiety, trauma, couples therapy, parenting support, somatic work, and more. Clients can transition smoothly to another therapist within Juniper if their needs evolve. We ensure coordinated care and internal referrals so clients receive the best support without disruption. Specializations are clearly listed in therapist bios, making it easy to find the right fit.While we do not provide in-house psychological assessments, our clinicians are trained to help identify patterns and symptoms related to anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and more. We use screening tools such as the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 and maintain a strong referral network with trusted psychologists for formal diagnosis. We support clients throughout the referral process and integrate feedback into treatment planning.

Our Values
Courage - We believe that with the right support, everyone can find the courage to grow. At Juniper Counselling, we don’t just create a safe space — we create a brave space, where you can face life’s challenges with strength and intention.
Connection - We believe that true connection is rooted in mutual respect, understanding, and shared vulnerability. Growth happens when we work together — side by side — with courage, honesty, and care. Let’s walk this path together.
Community - We honour the wisdom of ‘all my relations’ — a reminder that we are all connected: to each other, to the land, and to the systems we move through. At Juniper Counselling, we show up as allies, advocates, and collaborators — working in community, for community.

We all want to belong and find purpose in our lives. However, when life gets difficult we often feel lonely, disconnected and lost. Counselling at Juniper means you don’t have to face it alone.
