Find your Nook, find your Peace.
At The Nook, we believe in the power of relationship and genuine human connection. We prioritize collaboration and humanity as pivotal in establishing a safe container for you to create meaningful change. We conceptualize our work largely from a parts perspective and aim to nurture an environment where individuals feel supported to explore all aspects of themselves. All parts our welcome in our therapy rooms. At The Nook Therapy we work with folks to help them connect back to their true authentic self, establishing a feeling of coming back home. We specialize in all types of trauma, believing that healing includes trusting the innate wisdom of the body to work towards nurturing mind, spirit and body connection.
The Nook Team
Genny Tevlin
Therapist MSW, RSW
Genny believes that every individual possesses intuitive knowledge of what is best for themselves and their healing journey. Through her strong emphasis on building trusting, safe and collaborative therapeutic relationships, Genny uses a gentle and direct approach to help guide those she works with in finding or strengthening their intuitive knowledge. She honors each individual as the expert of their own experience, believes in healing through connection and authenticity, and incorporates joy and humor into her sessions.
Genny, born and raised in Vancouver BC, is heavily influenced by the west coast’s connection to nature, believing that connection to the outdoors can support our connection to ourselves. Growing up as the youngest of 5 siblings and in a busy household, Genny has profound interest in supporting clients to explore how their family of origin and childhood roles can influence adulthood behaviors, thoughts, and relationships.
Genny’s worldview and perspective of healing is rooted in anti-oppression and inclusion.

Kaytlyn Paszek
Therapist MSW, RSW
Kaytlyn is a warm and approachable therapist. She believes in building a safe place for clients to explore their own inner system and meeting the client where they are at. She is passionate about exploring how outside factors impact our experiences as individuals, such as societal and cultural factors, and intergenerational trauma.
Kaytlyn is curious by nature and is consistently spending time learning and improving her understanding of approaches to therapy. She builds curiosity into each session, so every client has an experience that is unique to their needs and personality.
Through growing up in a single parent household, she gained interest in exploring how family dynamics and experiences in childhood shape our internal system and ways of coping as adults. Further, her experiences of grief in losing a parent, as well as pregnancy loss, have added to her passion for mental health.

In the spirit of respect and truth and reconciliation and as settlers on this land we believe it is important to acknowledge the land on which we are situated today. We acknowledge the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprising the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). Moh’kins’tsis, named by the Blackfoot, meaning “Where the Bow River meets the Elbow” is also home to the Metis Nation of Alberta, Region VI.
