Transparent Pricing for Quality Services

I know that investing in your healing and growth is a deeply personal choice. That’s why I’m committed to being open and clear about my pricing—so you can feel confident and supported every step of the way.

All my prices are listed in Canadian dollars (CAD) and include a 5% GST applied after each session. If you’re joining from outside Canada, please keep in mind currency conversion and your local financial context when looking at the variable pricing options.

I don’t have a single standard rate — instead, I offer four different session prices based on income to keep counselling accessible. For coaching, there’s a set session rate along with three package options designed to make the service affordable and flexible. Below, you’ll find details about both counselling and coaching services, including income-based pricing tiers and a therapy fund to support those facing financial challenges.

Trauma-informed counselling services

I offer trauma-informed counselling to support clients worldwide, specializing in healing from trauma, abuse, loss, and anxiety. Sessions are available online or in person in Calgary to meet your needs.

I believe everyone deserves access to high-quality mental health care, which is why I use a tiered, variable pricing structure based on income. This approach helps make counselling accessible while ensuring the quality and support you deserve.

My goal is to help you maximize your mental health support without breaking the bank — with fair, transparent rates that work whether or not you have insurance.

Here is the pricing table showing session rates based on different income levels. This helps keep counselling affordable and fair. If you have any questions about the pricing or which option fits you, feel free to ask.

Frequently asked questions

I want to make counselling accessible to everyone, no matter their income. My tiered pricing is a thoughtful balance of fairness, quality care, and sustainable practice — because healing is about building a healthy, trusting alliance, not just a transaction. Especially when it comes to trauma, healing often requires a longer-term commitment. I hope this approach helps you maximize your mental health support without breaking the bank.

Pricing is based on your income to ensure fairness. You’ll be able to choose the appropriate category in the intake form. Occasionally, I may ask for proof of income to keep the system transparent and equitable for all clients.

Working with trauma, especially relational trauma, often requires time and consistent support. Many clients seek long-term healing, and if you have a fixed insurance budget, my tiered pricing helps you get more sessions and deeper results. Unlike standard high fees, my rates stretch your resources further, helping you maximize your benefits and extend your healing journey without financial strain.

Absolutely! I’m here to support you and want you to feel comfortable asking any questions about rates or options.

Trauma-informed counselling

My trauma-informed counselling offers a non-judgmental, collaborative space where your experiences are truly honoured. I support individuals facing anxiety, depression, grief, or the lasting effects of toxic relationships by meeting you exactly where you are. Through a gentle, respectful approach tailored to your unique journey, you’ll build self-awareness and emotional resilience. Many clients find increased emotional well-being and meaningful, lasting change. 

Trauma counselling - more than just trauma-informed counselling

My approach to trauma counselling is holistic and personalized, meeting you wherever you are in your healing journey. You won’t be pressured to revisit painful memories unless you feel ready. Using gentle techniques like EMDR, parts work, and somatic therapy, we focus on calming your nervous system and equipping you with tools for growth. Whether you’ve experienced childhood abuse, relational trauma, or complex trauma, this work supports you in feeling safer, more grounded, and better able to set healthy boundaries over time.

EMDR Treatment

In addition to trauma counselling, I offer stand-alone EMDR therapy—a focused and effective approach to help you process traumatic memories and alleviate trauma-related symptoms. EMDR is designed to support your healing by addressing specific traumatic experiences without the broader scope of comprehensive trauma counselling. While results vary, many clients notice relief within ten to twenty sessions.

If you’re seeking a way to process difficult memories without becoming overwhelmed, EMDR may be a good fit. It’s often effective for: healing single-incident trauma, such as sexual assault or integrating traumatic memories from abuse or relational trauma, when your nervous system is ready. Research proves that EMDR reduces symptoms of PTSD.

Grief counselling

If you’re coping with loss, my grief counselling provides a safe, supportive space to process your feelings. Loss can shake your sense of stability and may be compounded by past trauma or additional hardships. My approach is trauma-informed and guided by Polyvagal Theory, incorporating parts work and EMDR. Through these methods, many clients find renewed strength, clarity, and a deeper connection with life.

Community-funded therapy for BIPOC, 2SLGBTQIA+ folks and folks with disabilities

I believe healing should be accessible to everyone. Thanks to a generous donor, we’re grateful to be able to offer a limited number of subsidized therapy sessions through our Therapy Fund. Eligible clients can access up to 10 sessions at just CAD 10.50 per session.

This fund is available to individuals who meet at least one of the following criteria:

  • Identify as Black, Indigenous, or a Person of Colour (BIPOC) or
  • Identify as a member of the 2SLGBTQ+ community or
  • Live with disabilities

AND

  • Have no income or an income of less than $40,000 CAD per year
  • Have no access to insurance for counselling
  • Live in Canada

Proof of income may be requested. Availability is limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

I am honoured to offer this support and welcome you to reach out if you think it might be a fit for you. Everyone deserves the chance to heal.
