About Shelly

My Mission

My mission is simple: to help people feel better about who they are and where they're going. I support individuals facing various challenges including substance use, anxiety, burnout, life transitions --or those who feel like they don't quite fit in. I help them sort through the heavy stuff, increase confidence, build connection, and make real changes that actually fit their lives.  It's about finding balance, hope, and a sense of worth -- starting now, not someday.

How I can help

I am a professional with over two decades of experience in Addiction + Mental Health counselling, with a deep understanding of overall wellness, crisis intervention, and social services.  I am well-equipped to address many aspects of an individuals' welfare.  With a passion for helping others, I am dedicated to providing real guidance and support to help you feel better about yourself, your situation, and what's possible for your life.

What I bring to the table

I am an internationally certified Drug and Alcohol Counsellor (ICDAC) and employ a trauma-informed, harm-reduction approach with knowledge of several modalities including solution-focused therapy, strengths-based therapy, CBT, and more.  I specialize in crisis counselling; substance use (assessment, withdrawal management, treatment, individual and group work, aftercare), and mental health (depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem challenges, conflict resolution, self-harm, emotional regulation, and life transitions). 

Who do I serve?

I work with both youth (age 14+) and adults!  I've been supporting adults for over two decades, helping them create change by addressing many life issues that get thrown their way… whether it's stress, relationship struggles, burnout, big transitions, or just trying to find some balance and peace amidst the chaos.


Lately, I've been working with youth who are navigating school-based anxiety, challenges with connection and belonging, problem technology use, imposter syndrome, and managing overwhelming emotions.


My services are inclusive, and I'm here to support anyone who's struggling, searching for clarity, or simply trying to sort through life's challenges. Everyone deserves a space where they feel heard, understood, and supported.

Finding Your Way Back to You

Are you feeling stuck in a loop of self-doubt, always comparing yourself to others, or feeling like you're just not enough?  Maybe you grew up in a home where your voice wasn't heard, or you're currently grappling with the aftermath of a tough breakup, feeling lost and unworthy.  Or perhaps you're a professional who...
