I am honestly so grateful for Ruby ❤️and everything she has helped me with over the past year. 😊 She has helped me so much with my panic attacks and anxiety, and I can really see how far I’ve come.She is such a kind and caring person and always made me feel comfortable talking about anything. She helped me understand my thought patterns and, more importantly, showed me ways to deal with them in my everyday life.I have learned so much about myself through our sessions, and I’m truly thankful for her patience, support, and guidance. 🥹🤍 She has made such a positive difference in my life, and I am really grateful I found her. ❤️

I’ve been seeing Anastasia for some time now, and it’s been such a wonderful experience. We are still working through things, but she really helps me make sense of everything, and I’m finally starting to feel like things are getting clearer. She creates such a safe, comfortable space where I feel truly heard and accepted. I am so grateful for her support!

I had the pleasure of meeting Lisa at an event and was immediately impressed by her professionalism and warmth. She was kind, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable, taking the time to share valuable insights and engage in meaningful conversation. Her expertise is evident, and her genuine care for others makes her stand out.

Lisa has a way of bringing people together and creating an environment where everyone feels comfortable contributing. She immediately puts you at ease.You can tell she genuinely cares about people and about the work she does. Her energy is contagious, and she brings both heart and wisdom to every conversation.If Crossroads Collective is a reflection of Lisa, and I have no doubt it is, then clients are in very good hands.

Although I have not been a client of this practice, I had the opportunity to meet the owner and was immediately drawn to her professionalism, confidence, and commitment to providing quality care. It was clear through our interaction that she is passionate about helping others and dedicated to creating a positive and supportive experience.

An absolutely amazing place! Marianne has been incredibly insightful through the years and has helped guide our entire family unit through many incredibly complex and difficult situations. We are significantly more healthy now and I can say confidently that we would not be where we are today without her guidance and support. I have been to many clinics in the past and I can’t imagine going anywhere else.On top of this, she has a vast understanding of neurodivergence, and is very skilled at being able to tailor her communication to the individual she is speaking to.I would highly recommend this clinic, it is easily the best I have encountered.

I have been seeing Marianne for years. She has been the one counselor that I have felt 100% comfortable opening up to and sharing a part of my story that I was never able to share with anyone other than my close family and friends. She has helped me see a perspectives, helped me with demons that I have struggled with and carried for years and together we have sorted through some of my deepest issues, some that I didn't realize was there. Marianne has a way of talking to her clients not down to them. She meets them at their level and always creates a safe space. Crossroads all around are a friendly staff and very accommodating to my schedule as a working mom. Always there to answer all my questions and point me in the right direction. From the bottom of my heart Marianne, thank you for helping me find healing and thank you for continuing to encourage me to be the best version of myself!

I have a very nice experience with cross road specially Lisa, Yash. during a crisis in my family life they really supported all my family professionally and gave me a peace of mind. Ainslie and Randeep are great with nonverbal kids and I really recommend Cross Road to families with special needs kids and school issues.

I definitely recommend Crossroads to anyone who is looking for a safe space to work through their experiences. Each member of the staff have always been friendly and respectful and I find the atmosphere to be relaxed and welcoming. I have been attending weekly/bi-weekly sessions with Randeep Hayer for a few months and I cannot speak highly enough of my experience every time I've walked through the door. I'm certainly glad that I found them when I did and I look forward to my upcoming visits.

The counsellors at this place have really helped me, especially Jalisa Prakash. Jalisa is the best counsellor even though she is still an intern. She is very warm, kind, understanding and empathetic. I enjoy working with Jalisa because she keeps a positive perspective, is very well informed and knows what she is doing. Working with Jalisa has really improved my situation and I'm grateful to have received counselling from her.

Shawna is amazing! I have been seeing her for over a year and she has helped keep my migraines and neck pain manageable. Her knowledge of healing with massage and essential oils is incredible. If you or looking for massage or reiki Shawna will be help you with either

If you’re looking for a skilled and attentive massage therapist, Shawna Middleton is the one to see. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Shawna always takes the time to understand my needs and preferences, creating a personalized experience that targets my specific areas of tension. Her technique is exceptional, providing me with tremendous relief and improved mobility, leaving me pain-free and relaxed every time.Her expertise is evident, and every massage with Shawna is outstanding. I always look forward to my appointments!

Talia Spear is hands down one of the better family mediators out there these days. She’s clever, thoughtful and upfront. There’s no judgement about where you’ve been or what’s happened when you speak to her. She doesn’t gouge you for money, and you’ll end up talking productively about what could work and your kids instead of arguing. I was surprised that productive discussion was even possible after the years of needing judges to step in. My ex and I have used her a few times now. Each time somehow we’ve agreed on what we were originally disagreeing about. It’s been a fraction of the cost of what other mediators and lawyers charged us and Talia actually got us somewhere. I’ve recommended her to just about everyone who says they’re going to family court and I’ve only heard positive feedback about her. She even gives us links to resources for the agreements we come to. It makes it easy to get started on the right path. I think she made our lives easier, and it feels like we understand each other better than we ever have.

I've been seeing Mary Tuhkala since the beginning of 2024 to help me navigate divorce and co-parenting. I really trust her guidance and appreciate how well she listens and offers tools that specifically assist the challenges I'm facing. Her calm demeanor and reassurance have helped me define my boundaries, identify my strengths and weaknesses, and implement the tools she's teaching me. I would highly recommend seeing Mary if you're looking to improve yourself in a safe and caring environment. I'm so thankful to have the opportunity to invest in my wellbeing with Mary.

I have been attending counseling with Shannon Lawrence for almost a year now, and am so blessed by her warmth and compassion, support and encouragement, every time I see her.As an adult who has come through trauma during my formative years, I hadn’t been to a counselor since I was 13 years old. Shannon’s heart for her clients, the wisdom and practical knowledge she imparts, and the genuine concern and care she shows, permeates beyond the walls of her office.

Got nothing to say but thank you to Shannon Lawrence for helping me overcome my issues. She was so willing to listen and showed compassion every session I had with her. Didn't judge but instead focused in helping me out and gave me steps to get back in shape. One of the best decision I've made is to go to her and seek for help highly recommended and will advise anyone to go and talk to her should anyone needs a hand.

It's hard to fit the impact that Nadine has made in my daughter's and really my whole families life in a Google review. My daughter struggles with ADHD and anxiety and multiple comorbidities that can come along with these diagnoses. Nadine has gone over and above to support her. Wether it be teaching her the skills and tools needed to help her function better in her day to day life. Sitting with her and allowing her to just be who she is. Attending meetings to help advocate for my daughter and the supports she needs. Nadine was detremental in the implementation and execution of her IEP and safety plan within her school. She has helped my daughter through some of her darkest times and celebrated her through some of her best. She has helped me to better understand the way my daughter's brain works and in the process greatly decreased conflict and improved our relationship. My daughter went through many other therapists before we found Nadine. Her ability to connect with my daughter and have her actually listen and put into practice what she's saying, while keeping her feeling safe and accepted is incredible. The fact that she has a therapy dog, Oakley, is just the icing on the cake. All it takes is for my daughter to sit with Oakley and the relief of anxiety from her is palpable. Nadine is truly one of a kind and we are so grateful to have her.

Susan Robertson

22:44 02 Oct 23

My kids have thrived with the guidance from Nadine and her therapy dog, Oakley. Oakley relaxes the kids and puts them at ease. They ask to see him and are very disappointed when he is not there. Nadine has really helped build their confidence and self awareness.

I had the pleasure of knowing Brent Hayter for over a decade when he was teaching at the middle school where I worked as a hockey skating and skills coach. Brent served as the teacher and coordinator of the hockey program and fitness program for the class during this time. I can confidently say that in my 25 years of working in the school district, I have never encountered a more respected teacher than Brent.Brent's ability to teach life lessons through the game of hockey and fitness was truly remarkable. His dedication and passion went far beyond his job description. He genuinely cared about his students and always strived to empower them. Brent's empathy allowed him to connect with students on a deep level, while his honest and straightforward approach ensured that they received the truth and practical advice to achieve their goals or overcome challenging situations.Not only was Brent exceptional with children, but he was also an incredible friend and mentor. Personally, I have learned a great deal from him, benefiting from his wisdom and incredible work ethic. Impressed by his teaching abilities, I hired Brent to run camps for me in Northern BC, and the feedback from participants was outstanding. Everyone absolutely loved him!Brent's transition to counselling at Crossroads Collective is a natural fit for his talents and passion for helping others. I have no doubt that his skills as a therapist are as exemplary as his teaching abilities. If you're seeking guidance and support, I highly recommend Brent Hayter without hesitation. Whether it's individual counselling or group counselling, you can trust him to be genuine, empathetic, and offer the honest truth while providing invaluable advice to navigate your way through any situation.Brent's exceptional character, combined with his wealth of experience, make him an invaluable asset for anyone in need of guidance. Don't hesitate to reach out to him - he is the person you want by your side on your journey to personal growth and self-discovery

I came to crossroads because my 4 year old son was struggling with not seeing his dad. Shannon has been able to help my son during this difficult time and even his daycare has made comments about the change in him too. I am so grateful for Shannon and crossroads for being there for my son!

Nadine has had such a positive impact on our anxious daughter. She has given us practical strategies and ways to help our daughter (and us!) cope with her big worries. Our daughter absolutely loves her sessions with Nadine (and your pups!) Thank you for your kindness, experience, and ability to instil confidence in our daughter!

I have been going through a very hard time and I have never reached out for extra help but today it got to be too much and I searched online for a counselor which led me here. I called in tears and unfortunately I cannot remember if her name was Cindy and Sandy but she calmed me down right away, and set me up for an appointment with Stacey who was a very comforting person. I’m very grateful for their quick action and I’m excited to see where things go.

If I could give 5+ stars I would. The office is clean and always very calm. I don't normally have to interact with the office staff but when I do they have been very sweet and helpful! To the important part... I've been seeing Jeanne, since the end of August 2022. I had such an awful experience with therapy when I was a teen, that I was soooo scared to give it another chance. After my first appointment with Jeanne, I knew that this was going to be so good for me in the long run. She's really good at making me feel heard, and help organize my feelings and thoughts. I reaaaaallly am working on just being more self-aware and putting a self-care action plan into place and having Jeanne there every week has definitely helped me with my accountability. I'm really glad that I have her in my corner, because I honestly believe that a lot of my happiness now is due to the work we've been doing in therapy.

It makes such a difference having the opportunity to talk about every day situations that seem normal but are actually creating a lot of stress in our daily lives. Shannon has been amazing, listening patiently and asking the right questions to help me understand how to manage my expectations. She’s also given me tools and tips to improve my daily habits and I can finally feel myself again.I am a better person, mom and partner.I highly recommend her services.

Both of my young daughters see Shannon Lawrence for play therapy to assist with general anxiety and one for OCD. Both of my girls love going and are always excited to go to their appointments, they are always very disappointed when it is time to leave. Having children struggle with anxiety is very emotional as a parent, Shannon has been very supportive and creative with how she is helping not only my kids, but myself and my spouse combat the challenges and individual needs of my kids. I cannot recommend her enough, she is absolutely amazing!

I Want to says thanks to Mansi Parekh to teach so many things to my child.

Absolutely AMAZING! With COVID our son has experienced extreme anxiety and Cassandra at Crossroads Collective has helped make such a difference in his and our lives. Our son looks forward to his weekly sessions and the improvement with his anxiety has been amazing. The skills he takes home is something he is really leaning into and even sharing with the family. Our son is very comfortable in the office, and thankfully Cassandra is very welcoming and allows a little couch jumping and some science experiments to keep him engaged.We highly recommend Cassandra and Crossroad Collective!

My son started seeing Shannon for play therapy to help him cope with his big emotions. He loves going and I have seen him working on goals that he has set with her.

The offices are clean and quiet with a relaxed and therapeutic atmosphere. The professional staff are kind and helpful with flexible hours. We took time to choose the right therapist for our child. Shannon is warm and calm, she established a strong connection with our child from the start. We have come to rely on her as a crucial member of our care team. She offers consistent and practical approaches for our child to learn about herself and the world around her. Shannon has been a strong support in our lives as we navigate anxiety, ADHD and an understaffed school district.

My son is a teen and sees Nadine Viker. She's approachable and engaging with my teen (which can be challenging with this age). He can really relate to her and finds her easy to talk with her. He has appointments with her alone and with me as well. She helps to mediate issues between us as needed and I love that she'll call either of us out if we're the one out of line. She's also saved my sanity with some parenting sessions as well. I would definitely recommend Nadine as a counsellor.

After a couple years of my son struggling in peer environments, I decided to reach out to Crossroad Collective for some Play Therapy/Anxiety support. We met with Lisa initially, who instantly made us comfortable and took the time to listen to our needs. She paired us up with a fabulous Counsellor, Shannon, that was familiar with the school district dynamic as well. My son felt very comfortable with Shannon and we both noticed some positive changes through out the months of sessions. We have reached a point that sessions are no longer required, to which I give all the credit to Shannon and the clinic. Should we ever need future support, I will not hesitate to come back. The hours are flexible, which works for busy families. The physical space itself is also expanding and beautiful!
