Welcome
Are you struggling with stress, anxiety, grief or worried about your relationship, your children or your staff? You've come to the right place.
Are you an expectant or new mom finding pregnancy or parenting much harder than you expected or simply wanting support as you move through this life changing transition? I have specialized training.
You are doing an amazing job. But it can feel lonely and overwhelming trying to juggle all the demands of adjusting to a new baby or balancing work and family life, especially in a Pandemic.
Burnout and anxiety are NOT your fault but you are not powerless. Together we can find your way back to peace, joy and confidence.
Hi, I'm Nicole (she/her), an award winning Registered Psychotherapist , Certified Canadian Counsellor and Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional with 20 years experience using a variety of evidence based approaches. I provide individual counselling, online group coaching and trauma informed and mental health and wellness workshops for Organizations in Ontario Canada.
- With me, you will feel seen, heard and validated
- I will empower you with insight and coping strategies you can implement right away and share with your children.
- I am deeply committed to my own healing and love to learn so you don't have to get overwhelmed by all the information out there.
- We will work with the wisdom of your body, learn the language of your nervous system and hear your soul's longings so you can find peace and speak your truth with confidence.
Guiding Principles
I believe:
- You are the expert on you.
- You matter. Your voice matters.
- Worthiness is your Birthright.
- Every breath is a fresh start.
- Caregivers - mamas and helping professionals need to be cared for now, more than ever.
- Prioritizing mental health and wellness is smart business practice.
- Past experiences impact you but do not define you. Within every crisis lies opportunity.
- Individual healing leads to collective healing.
- We rise by lifting others.
We are Stronger Together
I'm honoured to be participating in this collaboration of inspiration and empowerment. Last year we raised money and awareness for a women's shelter in Toronto. This time we are giving our time in support of the crisis in Ukraine. I'll be presenting Thurs July 14, 2022 1pm EST on 'Breaking Free from Perfectionism"
We are Stronger Together
Sat June 25th I participated in the 10th annual Climb Out of the Darkness walk for perinatal mental health in the Region. Funds go to Together Waterloo providing groups for new mamas, subsidized specialized training and community awareness.
