BA Psych (Honours), MC, Counselling Therapist

Meet Braelyn! Hi, I am glad you’re here! Being part of your healing journey would be an honour. I believe each person is inherently valuable and deserves support, wherever they are in life. Relatedly, I hope to create a space where you can be authentically yourself without feeling judged and work toward a fulfilling future that centers on your perspectives, needs, and strengths.

How will we get there? I work from a holistic perspective, meaning I believe many parts of you – mind, body, emotions, spirit, relationships, and culture – influence your experiences in life and our work. We can explore the parts that feel most important to you, but I may also encourage you to expand your focus to other areas. I primarily use narrative, solution-focused, and mindfulness therapeutic approaches. Maybe there will be a few laughs along the way, too! I am passionate about creating a transparent and personable approach to therapy that fits you, so I will consistently check in on how we are working together.

I understand the upfront cost for therapy can be a barrier to accessing care, so I offer direct billing for various insurance providers.

I would love to get to know you and how we can work together; whether that is one session to work through a primary concern, more lengthy support, or something in-between!
