About Krista

Hi, my name is Krista, and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC). I primarily work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, grief, and the long-term effects of sexual trauma. I believe that therapy should provide a non-judgmental space where clients can feel safe and work through their issues at their own pace. My goal is to establish a therapeutic relationship where clients feel safe enough to explore issues that are important to them.

In my counselling practice, I bring a unique perspective as a certified yoga teacher , end-of-life doula, and vipassana meditator. I believe in the importance of restoring a connection with all aspects of the self to facilitate the healing process. I work with clients one-on-one to help them find connection between body, mind, and heart, and to rediscover the inherent wisdom that resides within the body.

Using a combination of the Gottman Method and Relational Life Therapy, I help couples navigate major relationship transitions, from moving in together and deciding whether to get married to blending families and co-parenting with ex-partners. Together, we work to strengthen communication, navigate conflict more constructively, clarify expectations and boundaries, and make decisions that reflect each partner’s needs and shared values. My goal is to help couples move beyond recurring patterns of disconnection and build a relationship that feels more collaborative, secure, and sustainable.

I understand that beginning the counselling process can be intimidating. If you are unsure how to start, please reach out to me at [email protected] for a free 20-minute telephone consultation. If I think that I am not the best fit to help you, I will be honest with you and do my best to guide you towards other resources.
