VENTURE COUNSELLING & THERAPY Inc.
Rose Degenhardt
MA, RCT-C, CCC
From a young age, I knew I wanted to help others. After exploring various areas of the helping profession. I have many years working in residential facilities for substance abuse and adults with mental health issues and 12 in nursing homes as a personal support worker. I have experience working with domestic violence survivors as a crisis interventionist and with victim services.
I strongly believe my clients deserve to be heard, respected and understood in a safe, supportive and non-judgemental environment. No matter what brings them to counselling. The foundation of my therapy techniques is to build upon a warm, non-judgemental, person-centred and integrative approach. My goal is to support clients in accomplishing their goals toward positive self-growth by drawing upon various counselling modalities. I strongly believe in working collaboratively with clients to develop a plan that is specific to each client and their needs, as so to maximize their time together.
I provide a comprehensive set of therapeutic services to help boost one's confidence and offer support as you navigate your personal health and wellness challenges. I work with clients closely in order to achieve measurable results that allow them to push forward with a new, positive mindset. Please browse my services and get in touch if you’re interested in working with me.

Welcome
My name is Alexa Andrews (she/her).
MA, RCT-C, CCC​
I am a graduate of Yorkville University's Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology program. My background is in child and youth studies, where I have worked with children and youth in residential and educational settings. I also have experience and am comfortable working with the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and neurodiverse folks. I am committed and passionate about providing culturally responsive and affirming services to individuals of diverse backgrounds.
​
I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space for all clients. I aim for clients to feel seen and heard by honouring their values and beliefs. I believe the therapeutic relationship is key to fostering a safe and supportive environment. My approach is very collaborative, as this helps provide a deep understanding of the client’s goals, needs and values. I primarily work from a person-centred approach; however, I also incorporate narrative, CBT and ACT approaches when appropriate.

Alix Munro, BA, MA, CCC, RCT-C, Certified Autism Specialist (She/ Her)
I am a compassionate and dedicated therapist specializing in neurodiversity, ADHD, and autism spectrum disorder. Drawing from my personal experiences as a diagnosed autistic individual with ADHD, I bring a unique perspective to their practice, fostering understanding and empathy in my therapeutic approach.
With an undergraduate degree in psychology and philosophy and a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology, I am committed to providing a safe and inclusive space for individuals of all neurotypes to explore their challenges and strengths. I firmly believe that every person's journey is unique and deserves to be honored with respect and authenticity.
Driven by a human-centered approach, I tailor my therapeutic techniques to suit each client's specific needs and preferences. I understand the importance of building trust and rapport in the therapeutic relationship, and prioritize open communication and collaboration every step of the way.
Through a combination of evidence-based interventions, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), I empower my clients to embrace their neurodiversity and navigate life's complexities with confidence and resilience.
