Frank Kakarelis MACP, R.Kine, Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma, much like a splinter, embeds itself into a person and affects all aspects of life. My primary objective is to create a safe and compassionate therapeutic alliance which facilitates healing and growth. With Trauma, I truly believe that the body holds a great deal of the emotional weight, without us knowing.
I witnessed severe difficulties in my community, and as an adult I have grieved many friends who kept their suffering a secret, often until it was too late. I truly believe that every individual innately harbors the right set of tools to achieve their personal goals and find their way to a meaningful, fulfilling life.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist, trained EMDR therapist, and a Registered Kinesiologist. This allows me to specialize in treating trauma along with anxiety, depression and a range of other mental health issues. I utilize specific modalities to assist each person reach their unique therapeutic goals, specifically, EMDR, Parts Work, Somatic Therapy, and CBT.
Life is difficult as it is, particularly when one has experienced a traumatic event. Our body and mind are able and willing to heal. We are able to reach a level of meaningfulness in life that we may not have imagined possible. You have the right components within yourself to heal and grow, and I would be honoured to walk with you on that journey.

Pamela Thwaites
(She/Her/Hers)
MA, MEd, CCC
With a Master of Education in Counselling Psychology and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) training, I bring a compassionate, client-centered approach to therapy. My academic background includes a Bachelor of Arts, a Bachelor of Education, a Master of Arts, and a Master of Education, reflecting a lifelong dedication to learning and human development.
Before transitioning into mental health, I spent years teaching both internationally and within unique cultural communities in Korea, The UAE, Kazakshatan and Brunei. These experiences profoundly shaped my sensitivity to cultural diversity and deepened my commitment to creating a safe, inclusive therapeutic space. My work on a First Nation’s reservation upon returning to Canada was particularly pivotal, sparking my path toward mental health practice.
I specialize in EMDR therapy, a modality I’ve found to be deeply transformative. Witnessing the significant impact it has had on my clients has solidified my belief in the power of trauma-informed care.
Outside the therapy room, I’m an avid yogi, a lover of nature, and a devoted traveler. I find grounding in the outdoors and joy in motherhood, which continuously enriches my perspective as both a person and a practitioner.
