We had such a great experience with Swapna at Upstream Counseling. She is so genuine and creates a really comfortable, supportive space right away. The activities she uses for couples make a huge impact. They’re practical, meaningful, and actually help you grow together. She’s truly tremendous, and we’re so grateful for the positive changes we’ve seen. I’d recommend her to any couple needing support. Thank you soooo much Swapna!

I met Nicole during the darkest times of my life, and from our very first video session, I felt an immediate connection to her warmth and authenticity. Every session, she met me exactly where I was—sometimes with humor, sometimes with deep compassion, and sometimes with the tough love I needed. I’ve worked with several therapists before, but never have I felt like I was sitting down with a wise and trusted friend for coffee. Nicole went above and beyond in ways I can’t fully put into words, and I truly believe I’m here today because of her. Even on the days when all I could do was cry through the screen, never saying a word, I never once felt judged—only supported. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is simply incredible and gifted at what she does.

A few months back, I was going through a really tough time and felt like I needed some professional help. A close friend of mine suggested Brad Wilton from Upstream Counselling, and I'm so grateful that she did! From the moment I stepped into his office, I knew this guy was different. He had such a warm smile and genuinely made me feel comfortable, like I was talking to an old friend. Brad has this incredible way of making you feel heard and understood. He would actively listen to everything I had to say, and then offer helpful insights and advice tailored to my specific situation. It was obvious that he really cared about his clients and was dedicated to helping them find a way through life's challenges. Over the course of our sessions, Brad's expertise and passion for his work really shone through. He didn't just help me cope with my issues – he gave me the tools and confidence to tackle any obstacles that might come my way in the future. What makes Brad stand out is how much he genuinely cares about the people he works with. He creates a safe space where you feel free to share anything and everything, without fear of judgment. It's rare to find someone who is so invested in the well-being of others. If you're searching for a counselor who is not only amazing at what they do but also truly cares about their clients, look no further than Brad Wilton at Upstream Counselling. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone needing guidance and support on their journey to healing and personal growth. Honestly, five stars just don't do him justice!

The team at Upstream is awesome! I have worked personally with Brad and Kathy and have been so impressed. They are both great therapists. They have such a diverse team, and have been so accommodating with my needs.

Brad and the team at Upstream Counselling are a pleasure to work with. As someone who has exposure to many counselors and therapists, Brad takes the time to listen and learn as well as offer support. His team of therapists is ready and available to help anyone that needs assistance in the Waterloo region and beyond!

Brad and his team are compassionate and professional therapists. They help individuals, couples, families in a safe and friendly environment using an array of techniques that best fit the person(s). As a Naturopath i value integrative health, and recommend Upstream Counselling.

I had an amazing experience. I saw Brad when I was in an abusive marriage, and he helped me find myself and the courage to do better for myself. It's hard to find a good therapist that you connect with, and Brad made that easy with his overall demeanor and inviting vibes. In my opinion, the process didn't feel clinical, which made it easier to open up and more personable. There are nice comfy chairs and couches in each room available, with perfect lighting and fidget toys available if needed. 10/10 recommend.

Brad is an exceptional therapist period. His years of experience and professionalism goes along way in helping you achieve your best self (on top of that! he really cares about building a relationship with you) I will not hesitate to refer Brad to anyone and everyone
