Equinox Counselling Therapy

Equinox Counselling Therapy Welcome to Equinox Counselling Therapy. I currently offer mental health therapy and supportive counselling in Cold Lake out of Oasis Wellness, and virtually.

ACSW Registered Social Worker
Mental Health Therapist & Advocate
Currently accepting new clients at Lakeland Psychological Services in Cold Lake & virtually within Alberta. I have experience in clinical mental health, trauma, animal-assisted therapy, grief and loss, sexual assault, ADHD, youth counselling, family support work, and high conflict family dynamics. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental en

vironment conducive to authentic self-reflection where individuals can explore experiences, social constructs, patterns, and relationships which have shaped the course of their lives. As an Integrative therapist, my orientation is grounded in psychodynamic, humanistic, and attachment frameworks with the added structure and measurability of cognitive models. I strive to help my clients live in alignment with their values, become agents of change, implement healthy boundaries, and grow more emotionally aware, building on the existing strengths and resilience inherent in all people. The relationship we have with ourselves determines the quality of our relationships with others- you become unstoppable once you know exactly who you are and the value you bring to the world. I would love to be a part of your journey to becoming your best self. Areas of Focus:
Trauma
ADHD coaching
Anxiety Disorders
Postpartum mental health
Self-Esteem
Life Transitions

Some children are not “bad at maths”. They are trying to make sense of something their brain processes differently.

Dyscalculia is often missed or misunderstood. A child may struggle to tell which number is bigger, forget simple maths facts, lose track of steps, or find everyday tasks like telling the time or handling money overwhelming. With pressure, they can shut down, avoid learning, or become anxious and frustrated.

This is not laziness. It is not low intelligence. Many children with dyscalculia are capable, creative, and strong in other areas - they just need maths taught in a different way.

What makes the biggest difference is how adults respond. Slowing things down, using real-life examples, reducing pressure, and focusing on effort instead of speed can help a child feel safe enough to keep trying. Early understanding can protect confidence and prevent long-term anxiety around learning.

When a child says “I just do not get it”, it is often a sign they need support, not more pressure.

Taking responsibility isn't about being perfect.

It's about being honest when we mess up.

Most relationship conflicts escalate because we defend instead of owning our part.

These phrases aren't scripts to memorize.

They're examples of what real accountability sounds like when you're committed to your partnership over being right.

Like this if you needed to hear it today and follow for more real talk on relationships.

Ever feel like life costs extra when you have ADHD? 💸 That’s the “ADHD tax” — the unexpected expenses we are taxed with resulting from overwhelm, forgetfulness, and executive dysfunction.

ADHD tax is real — and it adds up.
It’s not just about money, but about the emotional toll of trying to keep up. It’s not about laziness or carelessness — it’s about living in a world that isn’t designed for ADHD brains.

Small changes, understanding, structure, and self-compassion can make a big difference. Be gentle with yourself. You’re doing your best, and support can help make life feel a little lighter. 💛

Does this resonate with you?
Resting is balance, self-care, listening to your body; but for those who grew up hearing/seeing worth measured by productivity and rest framed as "laziness", resting can trigger feelings of guilt, discomfort, and even shame.

We can deconstruct these beliefs together ❤️
