Inclusive & Affirming Care

Healing starts at the root.

What brings you to therapy may look different on the surface, but lasting change often begins by understanding what’s happening underneath.

We offer specialized counselling to help you explore the patterns, experiences, and relationships shaping how you feel today, and create meaningful change from the root up.

You don’t have to know exactly what’s wrong or where to begin. We can start with what’s happening now and work toegther to understand what may be driving it.

Meet Amanda

Founder & Clinical Director

You may be doing everything you’re supposed to be doing and still feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change. Maybe you understand where some of it comes from, but understanding it hasn’t necessarily changed how you feel or respond.

I’m Amanda Steele, a Registered Clinical Counsellor and founder of Rootline Counselling. I’m warm, curious, honest, and conversational in session. I’ll ask questions, notice patterns, gently challenge you when it’s useful, and make room for humour alongside the harder stuff.

I don’t see people as problems to fix. Therapy is about understanding what’s driving your patterns, creating more choice in how you respond, and helping you move forward in a way that feels more like your own.

What clients are saying

I was on the fence about starting therapy, but Amanda helped me grow and understand myself in a way I hadn’t before. I felt supported, understood, and genuinely cared for throughout our work together.

Former Client

Amanda has a great style and brings a real sense of humour into sessions. She held me accountable when I was avoiding things and gently pushed me outside my comfort zone in ways that helped me grow.

Former Client

Through our work together, I learned to set boundaries, move away from people-pleasing, and make major changes in my life,  including leaving a job that made me miserable and working toward the career I actually wanted.
