Alexandra Bercea
Provinces: BC, MB, AB, SK, NL, NU, YT
Welcome! I’m Alexandra Bercea M.D RPC , an addictions counselor specializing in both substance use and behavioral addictions. With a doctorate in general medicine and master’s level training in psychology, I bring a comprehensive understanding of the complexities of addiction, particularly in the context of co-occurring disorders such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, and schizophrenia.
My approach is rooted in the biopsychosocial model, which means I view addiction as a multifaceted condition influenced by biological, psychological, and social factors. This holistic perspective enables me to tailor my counseling to meet the unique needs of individuals, couples, and families, fostering a deeper understanding of the underlying issues contributing to addiction and other challenges.
In addition to my specialization in addiction, I have over ten years of experience counseling families and couples on a wide range of issues, including communication difficulties, relationship stress, and life transitions. My work is informed by cultural awareness, recognizing that each person’s experience is shaped by their background and environment.
Over the past five years, I have dedicated myself to creating effective treatment programs for mental health facilities and child and family services within the mental health department. If you or a loved one are struggling with addiction or other life challenges, I invite you to explore how my expertise can support your journey toward healing. Together, we can create a safe space to understand the challenges you face and develop strategies to overcome them, fostering resilience and connection within your family and community. Let’s take this step together toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Life comes with hardships, some harder to navigate than others. We can work together to accomplish your goals and get the support you need to get through life’s greatest struggles. I work primarily with individuals (12+) and couples. I have worked in mental health since 2016 and have worked as a therapist since 2022. I see clients for ADHD, chronic Illness/pain, LGBTQIA+, relationship difficulties, sex/intimacy, and trauma/PTSD. However, I have many clients working through anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. You no longer need to feel alone in what you are going through.
I offer an integrative approach to therapy that is tailored specifically to your needs and preferences. I use mainly Person-Centered therapy, Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Narrative Therapy, and Trauma-Focused.
I have been exactly where you are, looking for support that would help me learn new ways of managing new life circumstances and healthy coping strategies. My main goal as a therapist is to make sure that people not only get the support they deserve but also the support they need to get through challenges that even those closest to us cannot always help with.

Bruce Jensen
Provinces: BC, AB, MB, SK, NL, NU, YT
Hi, my name is Bruce Jensen, and I am a dedicated family man, who is committed to helping people, families, and communities heal and foster compassionate, heart-centred relationships.
I am Canadian Certified Counsellor, holding a master’s degree in Counselling-Psychology and an Undergraduate degree in Addiction Counselling. What drew me towards the path of helping and serving others was my own healing journey, and a great desire to help out not only myself, but those around me as well.
My approach is client-centered, collaborative, and non-judgmental, with a focus on creating a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions. I emphasize building strong therapeutic relationships and employ evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), along with integrative techniques from Gestalt, Jungian, Narrative, and Transpersonal approaches. This allows me to tailor personalized treatment plans that meet each client’s unique needs. I have experience helping adolescents, adults, couples, and groups, navigate issues like mood disorders, grief, relationship challenges, and traumas.
Additionally, I am able to help people addressing addictions (behavioural, process, & identity), attachment styles (particularly anxious and disorganized), and spiritual concerns, including cult recovery and non-ordinary experiences. Additionally, I have training in Psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, focusing on preparation and integration, to help people embody insights into their daily lives.

Anjali Nagda
Provinces: BC, AB, MB, SK, NL, NU, YT
My name is Anjali Nagda, and I am a Clinical Counseling Hypnotherapist, blending my roles as both a Clinical Counselor and a Clinical Hypnotherapist. As a Clinical Counselor, I’m licensed to practice in Alberta and British Columbia, while as a Clinical Hypnotherapist, I am registered to work throughout Canada.
I work with individuals aged seven and above in a one-on-one setting, focusing on a wide range of concerns, including navigating trauma, managing chronic pain, overcoming fears and phobias, achieving smoking cessation, and adapting to major life transitions. My approach integrates various behavioral techniques within hypnotherapy to address my clients’ unique needs, always with the goal of establishing an empowering therapeutic partnership.
A central focus in my practice is supporting clients in creating a profound sense of balance—emotionally, mentally, and physically. I believe that true healing and growth stem from aligning these elements, and my aim is to guide clients toward a place of inner harmony where they feel grounded, resilient, and self-assured.
In each session, I am committed to providing a transformative experience, often extending support beyond the therapy room by offering session recordings, tailored follow-up materials, and practical tools to strengthen our work together. I see each client’s journey as unique, and I am dedicated to being an engaged partner in helping them achieve the balance, clarity, and fulfillment they seek.
At the heart of my practice is a dedication to the growth and well-being of each individual. My ultimate goal is to foster a safe and empowering space where clients feel supported in their path to positive change, resilience, and renewed purpose.
