Kayla enjoys working with people of all ages, faiths, and cultural backgrounds, including children, older adults, and people who are a part of the LGBTQ2S+ community. Kayla has a particular interest in working with couples and families. In addition, Kayla is passionate about supporting people who have experienced complex trauma and grief, including end of life.

My passion for helping others started with working in homeless shelters. This experience instilled a passion to hear people’s stories and recognize each person as unique and valuable. Geordy like a combination of Solution Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment therapy, and the use of EMDR to help people to overcome self limiting beliefs and experience wholeness. Overall, he believes that genuineness and being real are super important to therapy, and he is looking forward to giving people the ability to have a safe place to heal and grow.

I acknowledge both the courage and fear it takes to share ourselves with another person, and I am always honoured to walk alongside my brave clients in this journey. By creating a safe environment and using compassion, curiosity, and a little bit of trust in the process, we can work together to explore and integrate new ways of looking at and engaging with the world as we journey through your highs and lows together. We all hold unique experiences that deserve to be honoured and all deserve a life that is fulfilling and meaningful.

I am passionate about supporting others towards a path of healing, recovery, and completeness. I value the therapeutic presence coming from a place of compassion so individuals can share their stories. In my previous careers, I have worked with children and families towards a path of reunification and preservation.

I am passionate about being able to provide a safe, inclusive and non-judgemental space for clients to have their stories heard and therapeutic journey supported in order to become their authentic selves. The opportunity to walk alongside client’s journeys is a true privilege and I view life and counselling with the perspective that many events, thoughts, feelings and behaviours contribute to who we are and how we interact within the world. By providing clients with unconditional positive regard, empathy, trust and warmth, we can form a therapeutic alliance and collaboratively work together to explore challenges that may arise, rediscover strengths, release potential and work towards positive change and growth.

I love working with clients to find solutions which allow them to thrive, and I do so through a trauma-informed approach, which emphasizes non-judgmental support and strengths-based approaches. I believe that we all have a unique story, and that meeting our inherent need to be heard and accepted is an important step in finding peace.

I am passionate about helping people simplify their nutrition goals and create lasting change. Restoring our relationship with food is one of the most powerful things we can do in regards to our diet.  I love working with my clients to view food as a positive part of our life, not as something to be feared or controlled.  Being a shift working family, I am especially passionate about helping shift workers and their families increase their energy and improve their health through practical-evidence based strategies.
