About our Therapists.

Taylor Timmermans, MA

I love working with neurodivergent individuals, couples, and teens who want to be themselves in a world where they do not always fit. I also enjoy working with families of all kinds, including parents and their adult children.

Paige Cahill, MA

My background is in anti-sexual violence advocacy and supporting survivors of sexual violence, and this is one of my main area of expertise. I also specialize in working with those who have experienced religious trauma and are navigating the process of deconstruction. Finally, I love working with couples who are navigating difficulties in their relationships, and those navigating grief/loss, anxiety, depression, burn-out/compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

Juanita Gnanapragasam, MSc.OT

I am an OT that LOVES helping people figure out how to occupy themselves well. That's what OT is all about. What gives you meaning? What sensory experiences affect your day to day life? What gets in the way of you doing the things you care about the most? I work with individuals and especially love helping first and second-generation Canadians, young adults, and neurodivergent folks.

Ashley Shiach, BA

I am a Masters student at Yorkville University completing my practicum under the supervision of Amy Nydam. The best part about that for my clients is that I offer low-fee therapy! I am an avidly-learning attachment nerd, and I have a special interest in working with couples, eating disorders, and anxiety.

Jasper

I am a spritely, independent kitty who comes to work with Amy when I feel like it. When you come through the door I will definitely come to say hi! I like all people and will try to make your day a little bit better.

Sheetal Chandra, MA

I am a recent graduate, hoping to be registered as a Provisional Psychologist very soon! I love working with clients who are struggling with life transition, perinatal mental health struggles, relationship struggles, and anxiety. I also love working with BIPOC individuals and other marginalized populations.

Natasha Bain, MA, CCC

I love working with kids (4 and up) dealing with anxiety and behaviour struggles, parents, young adults working through identity, and women who struggle with self esteem, perfectionism, and anxiety.

Amy Nydam, MC, R.Psych

I am the proud owner and founder of YEG Family Counselling. I specialize in helping individuals, families and couples when Neurodiversity, mental health, and other struggles are getting in the way of communication and connection. I also loves working with new moms, trans folks, queer couples and families, and those who have experienced religious trauma.

Peggy Bain

I am the administrative assistant at YEG FC. On the other end of the phone is a warm smile waiting to speak with you and help with any inquiries you may have. I look forward to answering your questions and concerns either by phone or email.
