Life is truly filled with so many layers (just like an onion!) which can make it hard to know where to start when it comes to counselling. Hi, I'm Julie (she/her) and I deeply believe in the beauty of connection. My own journey with mental health and being neurodivergent has truly inspired my passion for this field. I work with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, chronic pain, ADHD/ASD, self-esteem, and couples counselling. I am also deeply passionate about working with 2slgbtqia+ individuals and the queer community.

I am so happy that you are here. Starting your healing journey toward who you want to be can be incredibly overwhelming, intimidating, and scary. You don't need to be in a place where you are unhappy and struggling. Maybe you're experiencing a major life transition as a young-adult in post-secondary, navigating anxiety, relationship issues, or struggling in your career. In therapy, as is true in most circumstances, one size does not fit all. You’ll find me using a creative eclectic approach that tailors to your unique strengths and needs. I believe you have the inherent ability to be well and thrive well with the right support.

Accepting new clients! Perhaps you have tried talk therapy and it helped with some things but in certain areas, you find it difficult to make changes & are looking for a new approach. You may find that people-pleasing and perfectionism holds you back. You find you start out strong by building new habits and then quickly lose momentum. You may be finding yourself more anxious than usual despite your best attempts at maintaining a positive outlook. You may also be experiencing overwhelm, imposter syndrome, anxiety, phobias, or depression. I also have a special interest in supporting women through pregnancy loss, infertility & burnout.

Motherhood is hard. It is messy. If you're struggling to find moments of joy, you're feeling alone and overwhelmed, you wonder if something is wrong with you and you long for your life before becoming a parent- you're in the right place. If you're feeling resentment building with your partner, the voices of anxiety, depression, sadness and rage have been loud and you don't know know how to manage them- you're not alone. If you're working to heal from a traumatic birth, you are struggling with the demands of parenting and paid work and you do you don't know who you are anymore- I'd be honoured to hold space for you.

Navigating life transitions can be particularly challenging for youth and students. Whether it’s adjusting to a new school, managing academic stress, or experiencing shifts in personal relationships, my work with young individuals focuses on providing support as they encounter these pivotal moments. I work collaboratively with students and adults to help them foster strong communication skills, enhance self-esteem, and set and achieve personal goals. I also offer support to those grieving the loss of loved ones by guiding clients in developing coping strategies, fostering resilience, and rediscovering a sense of hope and meaning.

I have over 50 years experience working with people. I especially enjoy working with men who are wanting to get to know themselves better, men for whom feelings and an internal life are somewhat a mystery. These unknowns often contribute to male depression, anger, anxiety or affairs. They also contribute to marital conflicts and problems in communication. It is difficult to communicate what you don't know but what you don't know does influence many aspects of a relationship. I often work with women who are struggling with these men and find ways to help them engage him in therapy with them. I also see individual women.

My areas of expertise include: Sugar and food addictions, body image, weight issues, codependency, boundaries and relationship issues, and decluttering. I will work with all adults, but my happiest clients tend to be middle-aged women who struggle with food, eating, and weight and want to make some changes. Together, we uncover patterns and behaviours that keep us stuck and I use gentle accountability and teach self-compassion to move clients into lasting changes. Sometimes the amount of 'stuff' we have in our lives is overwhelming; I want to help you see things clearly to make last changes.
