Jacqueline Boehme, BAH, MACP, RP, CD
Registered Psychotherapist
I believe in working with individuals and couples to help them reach their objectives and purpose for seeking counselling. I do so while exhibiting respect, empathy, genuineness and understanding. I create a safe and non-judgmental place or outlet for you to feel heard. I am very passionate about what I do and thank you for trusting me and taking the first step towards your mental health wellness.
I can act as a sounding board, a devil's advocate, a person of support or a colleague in your own life's work. I use a variety of approaches in counselling and determine which is most beneficial to the client after meeting with them and discussing their therapeutic goals.
I offer supervision to students, as well as RP(Q)s - please reach out to discuss your supervision needs. For supervisees, I ensure to meet your supervision needs and requirements.
Je suis francophone et j'offre mes services en français pour ceux et cells qui le désirent ou le nécessitent.

Emily Hartley, BScH, MEd, RP, CCC
Registered Psychotherapist
My passion is helping you live a more fulfilling life by achieving the goals that brought you to therapy. Together, we can explore where change might be beneficial and how to align your values with your day-to-day life. You already bring unique strengths to therapy, and we’ll work together to build on those, developing new skills to navigate life’s challenges. I believe in celebrating the small victories along the way to wellness.
As a Registered Psychotherapist with four years of experience, I’m dedicated to helping you thrive in a safe, non-judgmental space filled with empathy and respect. During my time at Queen’s University, I was honored to be nominated as a Mental Health Champion by students through the Campus Wellness Project (Emily Hartley | Campus Wellness Project).
I use an eclectic approach to meet your unique needs, including in-person Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) for issues like trauma.
I’m currently accepting adult clients across Ontario for online appointments, as well as in-person sessions in Kingston. Reach out for a free 20-minute consultation to take the next step in your journey.

Asia Brownlee, BA, MACP, RP(Q)
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Reaching out for support can be one of the hardest—and most courageous—steps a person takes. I’m here to offer a safe, compassionate space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions, we’ll work together to help you move toward greater well-being. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults, and I have a deep understanding of the challenges faced by members of the military and first responder communities, including experiences related to PTSD. I also support clients dealing with anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.
I hold an MA in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and am a member of the CCPA. I am currently working toward registration with the CRPO. My therapeutic approach is grounded in CBT and positive psychology, with the flexibility to draw from other approaches based on your unique needs.
My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, gain clarity, and live a more fulfilling life. I bring empathy, authenticity, and a genuine desire to help into every session. You don’t have to go through this alone—let’s take the next step together.

Kelsey Lloyd, BA, MACP (Candidate)
Intern - Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Hi! I’m Kelsey, a student therapist offering both virtual and in-person psychotherapy to children (10+), teens, and adults at a reduced fee. I am supervised by Jacqueline Boehme.
I also bring experience working in educational settings, which has given me insight into the needs of children and adolescents.
I strive to create a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. I believe that each person’s experiences are unique, and I work collaboratively with clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, and goals at a pace that feels comfortable.
I am particularly interested in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, and self-esteem. My approach is grounded in empathy, curiosity, and collaboration, and is informed by person-centred and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
Reaching out for support can feel difficult, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking for a space to reflect, I’m here to listen.

Natasha Watt, BA, MACP (Candidate)
Intern - Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
My belief in the benefits of therapy began when I started my own healing journey, and has instilled in me a lifelong dedication and respect for the practice and brave work of the clients seeking greater understanding of themselves and the experiences that have impacted their lives. I am dedicated to supporting my clients’ autonomy and their courageous willingness to embark on their healing journeys with compassion, respect, and authenticity. I believe in the healing power of human connection especially in an age of technological isolation. I am committed to supporting my clients to connect meaningfully and non-judgementally with themselves and others to live more unburdened. I am currently completing my master’s level practicum at Rising Phoenix, where I am training under the supervision of Jacqueline Boehme.
In addition to my graduate level coursework, I completed the foundation phase at the Centre for Training in Psychotherapy, where I engaged in coursework, five years of group therapy, and took academic-year long courses focused on trauma, interpretation of dreams, and studied work from Donald Winnicott.
I look forward to embarking on your healing journey with you.

Lena Funk
Lena's Taktil Massage
Originally from Sweden and calling Canada home since 2004, my journey from a science lab technician to healthcare as PSW has always been guided by a desire to help people feel better.
Today, I am able to do that through Taktil Massage, a technique I fell in love with and became diploma-certified back in Sweden.
What is Taktil Massage?
It’s an incredibly gentle and soothing form of massage that promotes a very deep relaxation. The massage technique always follows a specific pattern with slow continuous movements, light pressure and hold. You will be tucked in under warm blankets, giving a feeling of comfort and safety, in a very caring and respectful environment.
Taktil Massage is a very effective way to lower levels of stress hormones such as Cortisol and in turn, support our bodies to restore balance.
This original method, TaktiPro, was developed in Sweden and there, widely used in many settings within healthcare, rehabilitation as well as in holistic care.
Life is full of challenges—whether it’s illness, stress, injury, or emotional struggles—and I find it amazing how our bodies still always naturally strive for balance.
At times though, some support is needed to achieve that harmony and Taktil Massage can do just that.

Mystic Compass Coaching
At the heart of my work lies a simple truth: every soul holds the power to heal, grow, and transform when given the right guidance and safe space. My approach weaves together the wisdom of spirituality with the structure of psychology, creating a holistic path that empowers people to step into their highest potential.
With a background in Microbiology, Bioanalytical Sciences, Psychology, and Management, I bring a grounded, research-based perspective to the healing space. Over the years, I’ve trained in modalities such as Tarot, Reiki, Numerology, Crystal Healing, Angel Guidance, Chakra Balancing, and Vastu—integrating these spiritual tools with evidence-based approaches like CBT, NLP, Inner Child Healing, and Shadow Work.
Through this integration, I help clients uncover subconscious patterns, release limiting beliefs, and cultivate a deeper sense of clarity, purpose, and self-compassion. My sessions offer more than insight—they create space for emotional release, spiritual growth, and meaningful change.
In addition to individual coaching, I also work with couples, guiding them to build stronger, more conscious relationships rooted in empathy, trust, and understanding. I also design workshops and courses for those who wish to explore Tarot, Reiki, Numerology, and other holistic practices in accessible, practical ways.
Ultimately, my mission is to guide individuals back to themselves—to heal their inner child, embrace their shadow, and reconnect with their inner wisdom. When science and spirituality unite, transformation becomes not just possible, but natural.
Offering Holistic Transformation Coaching & Spiritual Healing.
