Do you feel overwhelmed by anxiety, self-doubt, or the pressure to hold everything together? Maybe you’re stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break, grieving a loss, or navigating a life transition that feels heavier than you expected. You might be exhausted from trying to appear “fine” while something inside you is asking for support, understanding, or a place to land.

In our work together, you’ll have a calm, non-judgmental space to slow down and make sense of what you’re carrying. We’ll explore the stories and inner voices that shape your day-to-day life, gently untangle what’s weighing you down, and reconnect you with your strengths, values, and sense of self. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you create meaningful, lasting change, one step at a time.

As someone with lived experience of a physical disability, I also understand the emotional and identity-related complexities of navigating a world that isn’t always built with your needs in mind. You won’t have to explain or minimize your experience with me; I will meet you with empathy, understanding, and respect.

If you’re ready to feel more grounded, more connected to yourself, and more supported in what you’re going through, I’d be honoured to work with you.

Do you struggle with feelings of anxiety and constant worry? Are you frustrated with your life or relationships but are unsure of how to achieve the change you desire? Life comes with many struggles that can plague people from all walks of life and sometimes overcoming these struggles is best achieved through employing the help of others. We all need help sometimes, and it was through my personal experience in therapy that I was able to find balance, clarify my values, and begin building a life that feels good from the inside out.

My personal life circumstances and experience in overcoming mental battles are what inspired my passion for mental health and led me into the helping profession. I strive to meet you where you are in your journey, and approach you from a place of curiosity while walking alongside you as you learn about yourself, discover your desires for life, and ultimately help you to uncover who your authentic self is. I value teaching clients how to develop and utilize various skills that empower them to live their desired life and overcome their struggles. My approach involves working collaboratively to help you identify the root of your difficulties and drawing on your existing strengths to employ various strategies that address these issues and assist you in positively progressing forward.

My compassion and empathy remain at the core of my work as I strive to build a genuine connection with you to offer you the support and care you need during this difficult time in your life.

Welcome.

I’m Nicole, your Guide for Change.

With over 20 years of experience as a counsellor and coach, I work with individuals of all ages as they navigate life’s challenges. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or finding it hard to manage major life transitions, I’m here to help you through it.

I have a special passion for working with tweens, teens, and young adults who are seeking support for anxiety, relationship difficulties, understanding and processing feelings and trauma, and navigating major transitions such as entering high school or post-secondary education.

I aim to create a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your feelings, be your authentic self, and begin the process of healing and growth. I believe that each person’s journey is unique, and so is the support they need.

We’ll work together to help you find relief, gain clarity, and build resilience so you can face challenges with renewed confidence.

I look forward to connecting with you.
