Erin Bonner, Clinician/Owner

Registered Psychologist

My passion is helping individuals find their path to wellness. I believe in holistic wellness and that integrating various modalities of treatment enhances the benefits of therapy. I encourage my clients to be curious about how they can cultivate lifestyle changes to think, emote and behave in ways that foster personal wellbeing and contentment. 

I am passionate about my role in helping others navigate their individual paths to wellness. In my 20s I lost my younger brother and then my mother and through my own therapeutic journey I discovered my calling to help others work on understanding and processing emotions and achieve their own personal growth.

I specialize in treating individuals who experience depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, cPTSD, emotion dysregulation, grief, OCD, and in helping individuals learn to love themselves and develop strong relationships with the people in their lives. I have a special interest in working with individuals who identify as highly sensitive and/or who experience emotions at a higher intensity than the average person (regardless of diagnosis). 

I also love to work with parents of highly emotional teens and children to help them learn strategies to evolve their parenting to work more effectively.

In addition to providing general therapy, I also offer sport psychology for equestrians. I myself am an avid equestrian and have been competing in the sport since I was young. In my teens I was highly competitive and rode with a prolific coach in the area. Working with a sport psychologist in my teens was pivotal in my success in the saddle and it is a passion of mine to help athletes in the equestrian world connect mental and emotional training with their physical training programs. If you need help overcoming mental and emotional blocks that impede performance, I may be the right therapist for you!

I work with adults and teens 14+. 

Canadian Certified Counsellor/Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

My passion is supporting individuals as they find their path to well-being. I believe in a holistic, whole-person approach to therapy, where integrating various therapeutic modalities enhances the journey. I encourage clients to explore how small, intentional changes in how they think, feel, and act can foster deep, lasting contentment.

Drawing on personal experiences, I am passionate about helping others navigate life’s challenges. In my 20s, I witnessed firsthand the profound impact of addiction on families - my best friend lost her sister to drug addiction, and my uncle lost his life to alcoholism. Along with this, my journey in supporting military personnel and their families across the world has shown me how mental health affects not only the individual but everyone close to them. Through my own therapeutic path, I discovered my calling: to help others explore their inner worlds, process emotions, and cultivate personal growth.

I understands that every person’s journey is unique. I am here to create a safe, nurturing space where you can deepen self-understanding, heal past wounds, and find the inner peace and strength to gently shape the life you desire. Whether you're facing past trauma, a major life transition, or seeking greater emotional well-being, I am ready to walk with you on your path toward growth and self-acceptance. My approach is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices, ensuring you feel genuinely heard, understood, and empowered to create lasting change in a safe, supportive space.

I know that taking the first step toward support can feel challenging, but you’re not alone. I am here to listen, support you, and help you find a path that feels right for you. Whatever you’re facing, we’ll navigate it together, at a pace that feels comfortable. You deserve to feel heard, understood, and empowered on your journey forward.

I specialize in supporting individuals facing PTSD, childhood trauma, self-esteem and body image issues, and I have a keen interest in men’s mental health. With over a decade of experience working alongside military families, I understand the unique challenges of military life, deployments, and solo parenting, and the impact these stressors can have on both individuals and their loved ones. I have a particular interest in working with military families and individuals who are navigating transitions, helping them build resilience and strengthen family bonds.

In addition to my experience, I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and trained in IFS-informed therapy, emotional eating, and body image. These specialised skills allow me to bring a depth of understanding to trauma and identity work, helping clients feel fully seen and supported.

My calling for this work comes from lived experience. As a young person, I battled an eating disorder that shaped nearly a decade of my life. I spent countless days in hospitals, rehabs, and clinics… often feeling isolated, frightened, and unseen. One of the most transformative moments in my own healing came from an extraordinary psychologist who created a space where I finally felt safe and understood. Her compassion planted a seed that has grown into my work: to offer that same sense of safety to others. 

In my therapy room, you won’t find a sterile or clinical atmosphere. I don’t believe in observing clients from a distance. Instead, I sit with you as a human myself… real, present, and flawed. Together, we do the deep work, balanced with warmth, honesty, and plenty of laughter (sarcasm is basically my first language). Many of my clients describe our time together as feeling like talking with a trusted friend - only with the guidance and tools to help create lasting change.

I don’t believe in “quick fixes” or temporary solutions. My goal is always to explore beneath the surface level struggle and help you get to the root of what’s going on, so your healing is not just a bandaged wound, but a true transformation.

Outside of my professional world, I’m a mother and a partner. These are the roles that keep me grounded and remind me daily of the importance of connection and love in my life. 

I find joy in traveling, yoga, hiking, and meditation. These practices bring me balance and flow naturally into the way I hold space for my clients every day.

I specialize in understanding childhood trauma, eating disorders, ADHD, anxiety, behavioural issues, chronic impulsivity, codependency, coping skills, depression, divorce, family conflict, life transitions, relationship issues, and spirituality. 

I work with teens, adults and seniors.

Michael will be with EBP from September 2025 - April 2026

During my teaching career, I advocated for children with mental health challenges and worked with psychologists and parents to develop personalized intervention plans. My time as an educator provided me with opportunities to celebrate students’ achievements and build supportive relationships. This role also strengthened my ability to empathize, engage in active listening, and create a safe, nonjudgmental environment.

Person-centred therapy is at the heart of my approach, focusing on each person’s unique experiences, needs, and goals. I strive to build genuine, supportive relationships where clients feel heard, understood, accepted, and empowered in their healing. I believe that you are the expert of your own life, and my role is to help you reach your therapeutic goals and experience healing. I take an integrative approach drawing from solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), mindfulness approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).

Sessions with me are offered at a significantly reduced rate with a sliding scale option. The Intern program at EBP operates with a "pay what you can" up to $50 model and the goal is to reduce barriers to therapy services; we offer pro-bono and reduced fees with no questions asked. Please note that as I am pre-licensed that my services are typically not eligible for benefits reimbursement unless you have a health spending account. 

I specialize in supporting clients experiencing burnout, emotional dysregulation, personal development challenges (self-esteem, self-worth, self-confidence), anxiety, obsessions, depression and boundary setting.

I work with adults and youth 10+.
