Hello and welcome! I’m Julia (she/her), a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with a Master of Counselling from City University in Canada. I bring a background in Athletic and Exercise Therapy, a deep reverence for the wisdom of the body, and a heartfelt commitment to supporting people through meaningful and challenging life transitions. I’m a mother of four, and my own journey through the shifts of parenthood, identity, and life transitions deeply informs my work as a counsellor. I’ve learned firsthand how complex, beautiful, and sometimes heartbreaking it can be to navigate change, and how powerful it is to find a way back to your own body, voice, and inner knowing. Outside of counselling, I enjoy connecting with nature, by the river or ocean, or in the forest and tending to hands-on creative projects at home. I also find stillness and balance in meditation, sound practices, and moments or connection and reflection. I approach counselling with curiosity, compassion, and authenticity, and I’m committed to walking alongside each person with care and respect. I hope to help you reconnect with yourself, reclaim your resilience, and discover a sense of belonging within your own life, your body, and the natural world around you. I welcome clients of all genders, sexual orientations, relationship structures, cultures, and lived experiences. I strive to create a counselling space where you feel safe, respected, and affirmed for who you are. I’m honoured to offer counselling that meets you where you are – with compassion, curiosity, and respect for your unique experience. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, feminist, and strengths-based principles, and informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic and narrative perspectives, and mindfulness. My graduate capstone explored Cyclical Attunement, an embodiment- and feminist-informed approach to supporting reproductive mental health, PMDD, and menstrual cycle awareness in counselling. I also draw on nature-based and cyclical models of healing, helping you reconnect with your body, your story, and your sense of self-trust. How I Work With Clients • Trauma-informed, feminist, anti-oppressive, and social justice lenses • Somatic and body-based approaches • Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed • Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) trained • Mindfulness, self-compassion, and nervous system regulation • Intuitive and cyclical frameworks for healing • Eco-therapy, walk-and-talk, and nature-inspired integration • Collaborative, client-led pacing and meaning-making Areas of Focus · Life transitions – including relationships, career, parenthood, aging, and identity exploration · Reproductive mental health, including PMDD, hormonal wellbeing, and cyclical mood changes · Grief, ambiguous loss, and emotional overwhelm · Postpartum adjustment, menopause, and identity reshaping · Neurodiversity-affirming support (such as ADHD and autism; lifelong or late-diagnosed) · Reconnecting with intuition, values, and inner resilience · Anxiety, stress, burnout, and emotional regulation

I offer equine-assisted therapy as a gentle, meaningful way to support healing, growth, and connection. Working alongside horses can create space for reflection, self-awareness, and emotional regulation in a way that feels grounding and natural. Horses have a unique way of meeting us exactly where we are, often helping us notice what is happening beneath the surface without pressure or judgment. This is non mounted and you do not need to have horse experience to engage.
