Mikaela has a strong foundation in addictions counselling and has supported children, youth, and families through her work with Big Brothers Big Sisters. Through her role with the Okanagan Hockey Academy, she has worked closely with athletes, supporting both their personal development and performance-related challenges, including confidence, performance anxiety, and navigating the demands of high-performance sport.

Her clinical experience also includes working with individuals facing substance use and compulsive behaviours, as well as anxiety (including OCD), trauma, depression, and significant life stressors.

Mikaela is particularly passionate about supporting youth, adults, and high-performing athletes as they navigate identity development, performance pressures, confidence, and life transitions both in and outside of sport. She integrates her background in athletics and counselling to help clients build self-awareness, resilience, and the mental skills needed to perform and function at their best.

Outside of her clinical work, Mikaela enjoys coaching hockey, spending time with her dog, and reading.

Born and raised in the Okanagan, I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor who values creating a warm, supportive, and judgement-free space where you can talk openly and feel truly heard.

My approach to counselling is collaborative and tailored to each individual. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities to support your unique needs, experiences, and goals. Whether you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in familiar patterns, or wanting to better understand yourself, we’ll work together to build insight, develop practical tools, and create meaningful, sustainable change.

I believe that a strong connection with your counsellor is the foundation of meaningful work. I consider it a privilege to accompany people on their journey, and I believe that with the right support, growth and transformation are possible. Feeling that we “vibe” and that this is the right fit for you matters.

In my free time, you’ll often find me hiking or skiing in the mountains, cycling, scuba diving, or adventuring in some way.

I look forward to connecting with you and walking alongside you through this chapter.

As both a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Registered Social Worker, I utilize a variety of modalities, and deeply value your story. My approach is grounded in compassion and directness, providing the support and guidance needed for healing and discovery. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship and creating a safe and comfortable space conducive for growth and exploration.

In addition to my Masters Degree, I have my level one Gottman Couples Therapy Certificate, and have received additional training in Trauma Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Somatic Therapy Interventions. I work with individuals, couples, and youth, to explore relationship dynamics, identify patterns, and create lasting change.  In addition to being a therapist, I also work in healthcare as a Social Worker, and as a part time Photographer. Outside of work, I enjoy spending my time outside in nature with my partner and dog, drinking coffee on the patio, and trying out new restaurants.

Whatever chapter you are in, I am here to support you with understanding, compassion, and a little bit of humour. Reach out to see if we might be a good fit!

Hello, I’m Zach! I specialize in evidence-based therapies like cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), and I work with individuals navigating mental health concerns like anxiety, depression, or just general life stress and hardship.

For the last five years, I have worked in the mental health field as a social worker and case manager. I am passionate about helping people live in a way that aligns with their values. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply looking for support, I aim to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and understood. My approach is practical, compassionate, and tailored to your unique goals.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy hiking, playing volleyball, paddleboarding, and learning new things.

I am excited about the opportunity to work with you. 

Cammie offers low-fee counselling services for individuals and couples.

Hello! My name is Cammie and I hold a Masters Degree in Arts and Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University.

I have also been working as a Registered Midwife since 2007 and although not limited to, I have a specific interest in perinatal mental health, family transition, processing birth experiences as well as grief and loss.

I truly value the connection that I  develop with my clients and assist them to come to their own solutions with gentle assistance and guidance.

I also consider the whole embodiment and aim for a holistic approach that encompasses us as individuals. I appreciate how every person and situation is unique. I strive to create a safe space to support validation and empowerment.

With over a decade of experience supporting youth, young adults, families, and caregivers, I’m here to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, balance, and a richer quality of life. Whether you’re dealing with addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma, or challenging relationships, I’ve had the honor of guiding many through these struggles.

What truly sets me apart is a deep commitment to empathy and understanding paired with a holistic perspective. I believe in the transformative power of these elements to inspire hope and optimism and help you navigate your path to healing and self-discovery.

My practice is grounded in therapeutic techniques tailored to meet your specific needs through evidence-based methods. At the heart of my work is a robust and person-centered relationship designed to create a safe and supportive space where you can freely explore your thoughts and emotions. This foundation helps build self-awareness and emotional growth.

Together, we’ll develop practical coping strategies, enhance your communication skills, and build resilience to face life’s challenges more confidently. I’m also passionate about supporting families in identifying and overcoming challenging patterns, discovering their strengths, and fostering resilience during tough times.

Let’s collaborate to find your unique path to healing and build a brighter, more resilient future together.

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy engaging in nature through hiking, paddling, gardening, and spending time with my family. These activities rejuvenate my spirit and provide a sense of peace and clarity. The connections I build with my clients and within my community continually inspire and energize me, driving my commitment to lifelong learning and personal growth.

I am Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and hold a Master of Arts degree in Counselling from Providence University College & Theological Seminary. My academic background also includes studies in business and French language; however, I’ve found that my enduring passion lies in supporting individuals as they explore the psychological, relational, and environmental contexts that shape their growth and challenges. I have enjoy working with people of all ages, including kids and teens.

My clinical work is grounded in the development of a strong therapeutic alliance, which is consistently identified as a key predictor of positive treatment outcomes. I prioritize creating a collaborative, culturally responsive, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel emotionally safe to explore their experiences.

I practice from an integrative framework, primarily informed by humanistic and attachment-based theories. I draw on Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) principles to help clients identify and restructure emotional responses, strengthen attachment security, and improve relational functioning. Depending on client needs and treatment goals, I integrate evidence-based practices that support emotional regulation, cognitive flexibility, and meaningful, self-directed change. These may include elements of CBT, ACT, IFS, narrative therapy and somatically informed approaches.

Outside of my professional work, I enjoy spending time outdoors-exploring local trails, skiing with friends, or growing a vegetable garden.

Hi, I’m Kayla Davies. As a counsellor, I’m passionate about helping people better understand themselves, build a stronger sense of who they are, and find greater emotional and spiritual balance. My experiences as a wife, a mom, and a practicing Christian shape the empathy, patience, and values-driven approach I bring to every session, supporting clients in a way that honours their unique beliefs and experiences.

Whether you are curious about counselling, seeking change, or hoping to understand yourself better, I want you to know that it takes great courage to acknowledge your need for support. I have had the privilege of supporting clients from all walks of life as they navigate mental health challenges, heal from trauma, and develop a healthy relationship within themselves and with others.

My heart as a therapist is to provide a safe relationship rooted in trust, where you are able to process emotion, practice helpful skills, and experience meaningful growth. I aim to walk alongside you on the journey of self-discovery and healing, and to nurture a sense of self-compassion from within.

I believe that as we explore the meaning beneath our emotions and allow ourselves to feel, we often find hope and healing on the other side. My approach to therapy is emotion-focused and body based, which seeks to understand the root of your struggles and promote growth from the inside out. I also incorporate other evidence-based interventions to best support your unique goals for therapy. I view humanity through a holistic lens, and am passionate about empowering others to reconnect with their bodies.

I enjoy helping university students, adults, and couples as they navigate challenges like chronic illness, depression, anxiety, life transitions, communication difficulties, challenging relationships, spiritual growth, self-esteem, and trauma. I have previous experience supporting patients and their families navigate cancer diagnoses; I also have experience supporting clients with a Christian faith background.

Hello, I’m Robin (she/her) and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and I consider myself to be a wellness enthusiast who is passionate about helping others navigate their life journey.

I have spent my career discovering and sharpening my skills as a mental health clinician. By attending workshops, courses and galvanizing therapeutic modalities (with an attachment, person-centered, EFT and CBT lens), I have honed my skills to attend to the diverse needs of my clients. As importantly, is my lived experience of the many challenges and successes of 25 years of marriage and raising 4 children in a blended family. From this I have gleaned that there is never one right way to improve a situation, though there are easier paths than others to get there.

As a clinician, I am honoured to walk along side, supporting clients as they traverse their life’s journey, with hope of paving a path for a richer, more peaceful way of being.

I am a firm believer in the flowing energy of the universe, and so I consistently steer clients toward nature and use of their own breath to settle themselves. By slowing the nervous system down, it opens and allows a clearer vision of their options, opportunities and choices.

In my free time you will find me hiking in the mountains with family, friends or my dog Ellie. I am always looking for new trails in nature or new life experiences and adventures which keep me present and grateful.

If any of this rings true for you, I look forward to connecting and working with you.

Born and raised in Kelowna, I have a deep appreciation for the community I’m part of. Outside of my work, I’m drawn to animals, nature, and a sense of adventure—things that help me feel alive, present, and connected.

I come alive at the opportunity to be helpful. Whether it is the day to day stress of life; the discomfort of feeling stuck; the pain of relational turmoil; or the fear that it will never change, I am honored to be entrusted in taking part in your health and wellness. I take a collaborative approach to counselling; we find what works for you. I have a particular interest in wellness and resilience through adversity and trauma. I’ve worked in the mental health field for 15 years with adults experiencing numerous challenges and diagnoses.

Hi there, my name is Laura Belland. I specialize in CBT, self-compassion therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I believe we can often be our own worst enemies and harshest critics, and I hope to help you grow and get past any negative thinking to become your most alive and thriving self; through CBT, compassionate self-care, and mindfulness amongst other strategies. I am passionate about working with clients experiencing anxiety, social anxiety, stress, perfectionism, and depression. I have experience helping those with limiting beliefs about themselves, negative body image, and disordered eating. I work with kids (5+), teens, and adults.

Shawna is a mom of three kids, enjoying small-town life in the Similkameen. Her original background is in environmental planning and environmental health. Upon entering motherhood and having three kids close together, she felt totally overwhelmed by motherhood and it took a toll on her health and marriage. With counselling, and a lot of inner work, she grew a passion to help other moms turn off the autopilot living and show up for their lives, on purpose. This prompted her to seek training as a coach and a counsellor. Shawna enjoys music, painting, being outside, and that beloved daily coffee.

Real, live, messy connections and moments of hope and resiliency. That moment when you start to feel a challenging or painful relationship shift. That moment when a student who absolutely did not want to be there, finds something worthwhile in the experience. That moment when someone sits with you and doesn’t turn away, but instead says, this isn’t too much, or too messy, or too shameful. You aren’t too much. 

Those are the moments that make me come alive, and I’m incredibly grateful for the clients that trust me enough to share those moments with me.
