Heather is grateful to be living in Golden, where she has been working as a counsellor since 2010. She is an MTC (Master Therapeutic Counsellor) counsellor, holds an MA in Expressive Arts Therapy, and is a Certified HeartMath practitioner. She has studied and engaged in meditation and mindfulness-based practices for 11+ years and continues to find profound support from this in all areas of her life. She is currently undertaking training in Somatic Therapy, and has studied and worked with somatic experiencing for many years. 

Heather finds genuine joy working with a client-centered approach and supporting people to feel present and empowered in their lives. She has supported individuals navigating many different challenges including stress, anxiety, self-doubt, feelings of overwhelm, feeling stuck, boundary issues, abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, gender-based violence, childhood trauma, life transitions, sexual identity, addictions, discrimination, grief and loss, and aging.   Heather is aware of how hard it can be for many people to engage in counselling. She strives to create a safe, inclusive and supportive environment where a person can come work with whatever may be feeling challenging in their lives at that moment. Drawing on her training and love for Expressive Arts Therapy, mindfulness, and somatic experiencing-based work, Heather believes there is restorative and transformational power at the heart of all these modalities. She understands they are available for all people, and do not require prior experience or skill. 

Heather believes wholeheartedly that anti-oppression, anti-racism, social justice and decolonization are integral to trauma-informed care and she is dedicated to work with a trauma-informed lens. She deeply believes in helping people connect with their personal strengths, creating space for her clients to discover their authentic voice and open to new creative possibilities. She helps people discover their own ability to heal and move towards a more loving, peaceful and joyful way of being in their lives.    Her practice is rooted in her love of nature, the beauty and transformative power of creativity, and the belief that we are all connected. She believes that in each of our unique and authentic ways, when we heal ourselves, we heal each other. She is currently working with people 15 years and older and she will be honoured to work with you.

Lisa is thrilled to bring Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) to the Golden Wellness Hub. This unique approach is rooted in the belief that the body has innate wisdom of its own health and is designed to find and return to balance and equilibrium. Living life with two busy children, Lisa is no stranger to the demands of daily life, the mental burden we carry and the stress that impacts each and every one of us. Having taught yoga for 20+ years, she’s been part of and witnessed a growing desire among people to embody more calm, ease, and health. Discovering BCST has given her the ability to handle stress more effectively and heal from injuries from decades ago. She is so eager to share this modality with the community of Golden!

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy beautifully synthesizes her journey and passion for learning about the body and what it means to be human. It began with a kinesiology degree, giving her a deep understanding of anatomy and physiology. While foundational, this knowledge paralleled her yogic path and felt incomplete without including mind and spirit. Her Holistic Health and Shiatsu Practitioner certification on Vancouver Island furthered her education in energy healing and the body’s ability to find balance with support from a skilled therapist. Lisa continues to apply her learning as a yoga instructor, emphasizing holistic mind-body connections and the experience of deep embodiment.

Throughout her journey to BCST certification, she has benefited greatly from this non-invasive therapy. With over two decades of yoga instruction, she considered herself body-aware; yet in 18 months of BCST training, she was surprised to find deep-seated tension remaining. Many related to mountain biking injuries she thought were healed. Through the BCST sessions Lisa received, she not only released this tension but also freed energy held for over 20 years. As a mother of two, Lisa is passionate about supporting moms and babies and addressing issues arising from the birthing process. Her healing practices can support both mom/caregiver and babe and help with digestive discomfort, sleep disruptions, and feeding challenges.

Lisa looks forward to supporting your body’s natural healing as she provides the touch and environment it needs to restore itself.

Originally from Golden, Nicole moved back for her love of the mountains, friends, family and most of all, the community. She is so excited to join the Golden Wellness Hub to offer individual and couples counselling. As a trauma-informed counsellor she will welcome you into a non-judgmental space with genuine empathy and compassion.

She is a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor with a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Lethbridge and a Diploma of Professional Counselling from the Vancouver College of Counselling Training. Currently she is completing a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. Some areas of experience she has are supporting those in immediate crisis, women and children fleeing domestic abuse, folks struggling with addictions, trauma, anxiety, depression, self-harm and loss.

Nicole is both personally and professionally devoted to studying the mind-body connection and how both generational and individual trauma can affect our perspectives and how we live out our daily lives. She believes there is a unique wisdom and power within you; that you already have all that you need to tackle whatever challenge you are facing. Nicole will help draw these out while exploring the thoughts, feelings and patterns that are keeping you stuck. She can help you gain awareness into your relationship with yourself so you can trust yourself and your inner wisdom again, while empowering you to confidently embody your true authentic self and live a life you love.

As a strong believer in self-care, when Nicole is not working with clients or studying, she is chasing around her one-year-old son, spending time with close friends and family, reading, and spending time out in nature.

I work with teenagers aged 13+, individuals, couples and families navigating addiction, recovery, codependency, dysfunctional family systems, mental health challenges, relationship issues, trauma symptoms, depression, anxiety, unwanted behavioural patterns,  and questions around gender, sexuality and self expression.

Together, we reconnect you with yourself and explore how old patterns are still influencing you, helping you accept yourself, get out of your head and into your body, remember your innate capacity to heal, navigate challenging relationships, practise setting boundaries, learn how to meet your own needs, and process emotions.

I am trained in Somatic Therapy, Internal Family System, Mindfulness CBT, Trauma therapy, and Emotion Focused Couples Counselling; I know that’s a lot of jargon, please feel free to ask any questions!

I’ve heard a lot of stories through my work; you can tell me absolutely anything and I won’t be shocked nor will I judge you. I approach each relationship with full acceptance, an open mind and curiosity. I will do my absolute best to make you feel safe, heard, accepted and empowered. I believe you know what is best for your own healing and will always respect your boundaries and willingness to go deep emotionally. As a queer person,  I bring lived experience navigating identity and discrimination, and I deeply value decolonization, harm reduction, social justice, and inclusivity. 

After spending a decade in Montreal getting my undergrad, being an artist and working with unhoused folks, I moved to a small piece of land outside of Golden to homestead with my two dogs, where I hope to eventually have a therapy and recovery ranch. People would describe me as creative, authentic, loving and accepting. Outside of work I am passionate about building community, pottery, bike packing, being in a band, yoga, animals and playing in the backcountry. I love getting to know new people, understanding what makes them who they are and what’s getting in their way. Working together to solve these puzzles is such a gift to me.
