Days and Hours
Online counselling Tuesday-Thursdays
Hi! I’m Nicole (they/them)- a white, non-binary, queer, neurodivergent settler of Finnish and Polish decent living on the unceded terriroties of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. I have spent the last decade working with neurodivergent and disabled youth in the education system, providing academic, social, emotional, and behavioural supports.
I believe in offering an ongoing collaborative process that seeks to meet clients where they are at with validation and support, guided by harm-reduction, trauma-informed, and neurodivergent-affirmative principles. My combination of professional and lived experience in areas such as sexual identity, gender, disability, neurodivergence, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and parenting has shaped the intersectional social justice lens through which I view my work. I am particularly interested in working with fellow LGBTQ2SIA+ individuals, neurodivergent and/or disabled individuals, and parents of neurodivergent or LGBTQ2SIA+ children. I am also available to work with youth ages 10 and up.
I spend most of my free time with my partner and our two young children. I also like to make time to dance, craft, chat with friends, engage in my current special interests, and even try to squeeze in the ever-illusive nap every once and awhile. I look forward to meeting you.
