Counselling services tailored to you.

Anxiety can show up in many ways — racing thoughts, physical tension, avoidance, or a constant sense of dread that's hard to explain. Whether your anxiety is tied to a specific situation or feels like it's always been there, counselling can help.

Depression is more than feeling sad — it can drain your energy, disconnect you from the people and things you love, and make even small tasks feel impossible. You don't have to white-knuckle your way through it alone.

Addiction is complex — it's rarely just about the substance or behaviour. It's often about pain, coping, and survival. With an addictions certificate and an addictions-informed approach, I offer non-judgmental, harm reduction-centred support that meets you exactly where you are. Whether you're working toward abstinence, moderation, or simply safer choices, all goals are valid here.

Intimate partner violence — whether physical, emotional, psychological, financial, or sexual — leaves deep marks. Healing takes time, safety, and a space where your experience is fully believed and validated.

Family violence — including childhood abuse, neglect, or witnessing violence — shapes how we see ourselves and the world. The effects can follow us into adulthood in ways that aren't always easy to recognize. This is a space to begin making sense of it.

The mental health and social services system can be overwhelming to navigate — especially when you're already struggling. I help connect you with the right community resources, programs, and supports so you don't have to figure it out alone.

Parenting is deeply rewarding — and deeply hard. Whether you're dealing with burnout, navigating a difficult co-parenting relationship, managing conflict at home, or simply feeling like you're not doing enough, counselling offers a space to breathe, reflect, and find your footing.

Separation, divorce, and blended family dynamics can make parenting feel like a battleground. Counselling can help you step back, understand different parenting styles, and work toward a parenting plan that is grounded in your children's wellbeing — not conflict. Whether you're co-parenting with an ex-partner, navigating a new blended family, or trying to align on values with a current partner, this work helps you parent with intention.

Receiving a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder or ADHD — for yourself or your child — can bring up a complicated mix of emotions: relief, grief, confusion, and hope all at once. Counselling helps you process what the diagnosis means and build practical strategies for moving forward.

Grief doesn't only come from death. It comes from the end of a relationship, a diagnosis that changes everything, a job loss, a miscarriage, estrangement, or the life you thought you'd have. Whatever you're grieving, it deserves to be honoured — not rushed, not minimized.

Children and youth experience big emotions — and don't always have the words or tools to manage them. Counselling offers a safe, supportive space to help young people identify what they're feeling, understand why, and build the regulation skills they need to navigate school, relationships, and everyday life.

Anger is a normal, valid emotion — but when it becomes difficult to manage, it can damage relationships, create legal consequences, and leave you feeling out of control. Counselling helps you understand what's driving your anger, develop practical regulation strategies, and respond to difficult situations in ways that align with your values.

If you have been referred to counselling through the court system, a diversion program, or a legal requirement, CORE Counselling can provide individual sessions to support that process. Sessions are confidential within the limits of the law. Attendance documentation can be provided upon request. Please note that I cannot guarantee specific legal outcomes, and any documentation provided reflects attendance and participation only — not clinical conclusions or recommendations to the court.
