About Nicole
Hi, I’m Nicole (she/her), a student intern currently completing my Master of Counselling. I offer a warm, collaborative, and affirming space for clients to explore identity, intimacy, and connection, especially when those experiences don’t fit neatly into dominant cultural narratives.
My work is grounded in trauma-informed, feminist, and anti-oppressive practices, and I bring lived experience within queer and neurodivergent communities into the therapeutic relationship. Before entering private practice, I supported children, youth, and families in both public and private sectors, working across a range of mental health and social development concerns.
I welcome individuals and relationships of all kinds and am especially passionate about supporting folks exploring sexuality, navigating alternative relationships, and working through shame with gentleness and curiosity.
I offer a free 20-minute consultation so we can see if we’re a good fit, I’d be honoured to support you in your journey.
