Hi, I’m Carly.

I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor (#25646) with over 15 years of experience supporting adults, teens, children, and families as they navigate the messy, beautiful, and often overwhelming parts of being human.

I have a special passion for walking alongside youth, families, and new mothers, people who are in the thick of transition, identity shifts, or relational change. Whether you’re feeling stuck, anxious, disconnected, or simply unsure of the next step, I offer a steady presence and a space where your voice matters.

My approach is collaborative and flexible. Therapy with me isn’t one-size-fits-all. We’ll move at your pace, and together we’ll find what feels most effective, whether that means exploring stories from your past, developing tools to cope in the present, or making sense of what’s happening in your life right now. My work is grounded in person-centered and solution-focused therapy, and I also draw from trauma-informed practices, mindfulness, EMDR, DBT and CBT when they feel supportive to your goals.

I have extensive experience working with individuals who have lived through complex trauma, and I am committed to creating a safe, respectful, and inclusive space for people of all backgrounds and identities. You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin - just a willingness to start.

Outside the counselling room, you can usually find me outdoors with my partner, kids, and two dogs. I’m an avid reader, crafter, and lover of a good board game. I feel deeply grateful to call Vancouver Island home and often find healing in the quiet presence of the ocean and the mountains.

If something here resonates, I’d love to connect. You’re welcome just as you are.
