Brayden is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology. She brings a grounded, relational approach to therapy shaped by both professional training and meaningful clinical experience.

Brayden supports individuals and couples navigating emotional disconnection, conflict, communication challenges, and relationship strain. She has completed Level 2 training in the Gottman Method and works with partners to better understand one another, reduce negative cycles, and build relationships that feel stable, respectful, and emotionally connected.

She has several years of experience working with individuals and couples impacted by ADHD and autism, and brings a practical, neurodiversity-affirming lens to her work. Brayden is attentive to how differences in attention, communication styles, and nervous system regulation can affect both personal wellbeing and relationships.

Brayden also has extensive experience in addiction and mental health treatment, working with both justice-involved populations and the general public. Her clinical work is informed by a strong understanding of addiction, shame, relapse concerns, and the process of rebuilding a meaningful and values-aligned life. Her commitment to men’s mental health has also been shaped by close family experiences with serious mental health challenges and loss, deepening her sensitivity to the ways many men struggle in silence and the importance of compassionate, direct, and respectful support.

She works from an integrative, trauma-informed perspective, drawing from emotion-focused therapy, acceptance-based approaches, parts-informed interventions, and practical skills-based strategies when helpful. Brayden values therapy that is collaborative, emotionally honest, and grounded in real-world application rather than overly clinical or abstract. She is currently preparing to begin EMDR training to further support clients working through trauma and unresolved experiences.

Outside of therapy, Brayden enjoys playing hockey, creating art, and reading. She believes meaningful change happens when therapy feels human, respectful, and aligned with a client’s values and real-life challenges.
