Chelsea Cameron

REGISTERED CLINICAL COUNSELLOR

As your counsellor, I understand how hard it can be to reach out for support and I am glad you took the first step. I strive to make the process of therapy feel supportive, safe and nonjudgemental to allow you to be your whole, unfiltered authentic self.

​​

Most of my clients come to me feeling stuck or lost in some way and want to learn new ways of coping with life's challenges. In our work together we unpack the patterns that keep you stuck and build helpful coping skills to make you feel more in control of your emotions and life.

​

My style of counselling is compassionate, collaborative and directive as I believe that growth and positive change comes from self reflection and courage to take steps out of your comfort zone. My approach integrates interpersonal neurobiology and somatic mindfulness practices as I believe that understanding your nervous system and the connections between your brain and body is vital in making lasting change. I am a big believer in the healing power of humour and it is not uncommon for us to share a laugh in a counselling session. I believe that all emotions are important and hold a safe therapeutic space for you to experience the wide range of your emotions. I aim to create a safe space for you to show up as your whole self. Together we will practice and develop effective tools to help you grow into the person you want to be.
