Who We Are
At Turning Point our counsellors are committed to providing you with a space to heal, reflect, and transform your relationship to yourself and others.
We hold true to the idea we can not take you to places we have not gone ourselves. All our therapists and Interns are committed to this value by continuing to do their own personal work and in depth training.
All therapists have been carefully selected to provide you with the skills to achieve your goals. We understand that finding the right fit in a therapy relationship is very important and provide you with a variety of backgrounds and interests to choose from.

Aron Buky-Tompa RCC Psychotherapist
Aron has worked in the fields of mental health and addictions for over 9 years. His work centres around the therapeutic power of the relationship created in session, and uses the transformative power of a real human encounter to facilitate change.
Therapy can help create a new experience of what relationships can feel like. It provides space for healing trauma, processing anxiety, and finding meaning where there was only depression. Aron's practice focuses on clear communication and radical understanding, and fostering change through the therapeutic connection.
Working through trauma is a crucial part of therapy. It involves recognizing the places we can get stuck and frozen in restricted ways of living, and using the therapeutic bond to help move beyond the defensive and protective behaviours that trauma produces. This allows us more freedom and agency to make choices and deeper connections with others.
Experienced with:
- Anxiety
- Addictions
- Depression
- Relational difficulties
- Working with men and impact of toxic masculinity
- Childhood trauma and family of origin
- Self-confidence and self-esteem

Rani Sandhu RCC Psychotherapist
Rani brings over fourteen years of clinical experience to support individuals and couple’s through challenging times. She believes that all behaviour has a purpose, and all pain has meaning, and that healing and change is not only possible, but healing into more freedom, is what life is constantly asking of us.
She obtained her Masters in Counselling from the University of Victoria in 2008.
Rani loves what she does because it is a deep way in which she connects with people, and accompanies them on a transformational journey that explores new ways of being that previously were not accessible. She continues to be in awe of of her client’s courage to share their pain, and she is humbled to witness her clients move from pain, into more freedom within themselves, and in their relationships with others.
