Hi, I’m Kelsey! I’m a registered social worker (MSW/RSW), Registered Clinical Counsellor and EMDR therapist. I work with adults and youth (ages 14+), offering individual counselling and EMDR therapy.
My focus is on helping people navigate anxiety, work through trauma and supporting those who would like to make changes to their drinking or substance use.

I take a curious and compassionate approach, getting to know you and the unique experiences that have shaped your life. Together, we’ll look at how your past connects to the patterns you’d like to change, all in a safe and non-judgmental space. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and aligned with what matters most to you.
##TRAUMA AND EMDR THERAPY
Trauma isn’t always about big events; sometimes it’s the smaller, overwhelming experiences that leave a lasting impact. Many common challenges like anxiety and depression are tied to unresolved past experiences. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a tool I use to help my clients to process these experiences.
As a fully trained EMDR therapist, I’ll guide you through this process at your pace, helping you:
Work through negative beliefs (examples: "I'm not enough"or "I'm powerless")
Address trauma-related experiences and symptoms
Feel stronger and more resilient
##SOMATIC AND PARTS WORK
Bringing in parts work, listening to your body, and understanding different parts of yourself. This can include:
Recognizing and giving space to parts of yourself that may feel stuck, reactive, or unheard.
Learning to regulate your nervous system by tuning into your body’s signals and responses.
Developing compassion and understanding for all parts of yourself, even the ones that feel challenging.
##SUBSTANCE USE AND DRINKING CHANGES
Making changes to substance use or drinking can feel daunting, and I’m here to meet you where you’re at. Whether your goal is abstinence, moderation, or harm reduction, we’ll work together to find the right path for you.
Feeling unsure about change? That’s completely normal. I’ll support you in taking things one step at a time, weaving this work into your other therapy goals.
Some ways I can help include:
CBT and DBT: Building tools and skills to handle challenges and manage urges in the moment.
ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy): Using acceptance, mindfulness and value-focused work to navigate triggers, cravings and align your choices with what’s most important to you.
EMDR Therapy: Working on the deeper beliefs and experiences connected to substance use, so you can feel more in control.
##WHAT TO EXPECT
Through our work, I aim to help you:
- Break free from negative patterns
- Feel more confident and less anxious
- Understand and build on your strengths
- Improve your relationships and communication
- Gain tools to navigate life’s challenges
