Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma Counseling

Hi, I'm Alicia.

I’ve always believed that therapy shouldn’t feel cold or clinical. I didn't just learn about anxiety, trauma and depression from textbooks—I know them from the inside out. With over 30 years of lived experience, I found support on my journey to releasing the pain I was holding. Now, I am free to move forward in life on my own terms. I was given the gift of hope and the space to process my pain and now I want to help others find their own paths to healing through effective anxiety counseling and depression therapy. I have a deep respect for human resilience and the hard work of healing through trauma support.

In our sessions, you can expect a real person who understands the weight of what you are carrying, dedicated to helping you rediscover your strength.

I hold a Master Practitioner in Clinical Counseling Provisional (MPCC-p) designation with the Canadian Professional Counsellor's Association (CPCA).

Feeling burnt out, unable to rest or have tension in your body? Anxiety is usually the reason, and it takes many forms. I specialize in anxiety counseling and somatic therapy. My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed approach, ensuring that work with clients always moves at their pace. Somatic work bridges the connection between mind and body to release stored tension and process emotions where they live in the physical self. I provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, gain insights into your behavior, and develop strategies to manage your anxiety. Additionally, I offer depression therapy and trauma support to help you on your healing journey.

When you’re in the thick of depression, finding a way out can feel impossible.  Some days, even gettin off the couch is an overwhelming task.  When depression has you frozen and unable to function, I’m here to sit with you and help you navigate the way forward through with depression therapy. With gentle, collaborative, and evidence-based therapies, we will work at your pace to move through the heaviness of anxiety counseling, rebuild your resilience, and get you to a place where you can truly thrive again. I also offer trauma support to not only help you heal, but to find hope and to start growing into the life you want for yourself.

Trauma can leave you feeling stuck in the past, constantly on edge, or deeply disconnected from your own body. It’s not just a memory; it’s something your nervous system carries every day. Together, we will create a safe, unhurried space to gently process these experiences at your own pace, providing trauma support along the way. Through anxiety counseling and depression therapy, we will listen to what your body needs and hear your story. This collaborative approach can help release the grip of the past, guiding you back to a place of safety, ease, and wholeness on the other side.

You can begin your journey to healing right now with our anxiety counseling, depression therapy, and trauma support services. Book an appointment today.
