Meet Niki
I’m a Certified Canadian Counsellor specializing in perinatal mental health and couples counselling. With a background in labour and delivery nursing, I understand firsthand the emotional and relational shifts that can come with pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. In perinatal work, I often integrate self-compassion and cognitive behavioural therapy to help clients navigate anxiety, overwhelm, and identity changes. In couples counselling, I draw from the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy to strengthen connection and communication.
Wherever you’re starting from, we’ll move at a pace that feels supportive and steady for you.
