North Vancouver Counselling
Virtual Counselling across BC
I’m so happy you’re here.
Hi, I’m Kelsey, a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Pediatric Sleep Consultant in Vancouver.
I have over 10 years of experience working in mental health and specialize in working with individuals and families through a person-centered and attachment-based lens while always using trauma-informed approaches.
In therapy with me, you can expect to feel safe, supported, and understood. We will work together to find solutions to your problems.
Pediatric Sleep Counselling
If you’re a parent of a little one with poor sleep, you’re likely exhausted.
✔ Does your baby need to be bounced, rocked, fed, or pushed in the stroller to fall asleep?
✔ Does your baby wake up often throughout the night?
✔ Does your baby need help to fall back asleep?
✔ Are you experiencing consistent early morning wake-ups?
✔ Does your toddler struggle with bedtime battles and separation anxiety?
