Accepting New Virtual Clients. You’re constantly on, carrying the weight of high-stakes decisions, relentless pressure, and a company that doesn’t respect boundaries. At work, you’re expected to perform at your peak, yet exhaustion slows you down. At home, you want to be present, but stress follows you through the door. The demands never stop, and neither do you, but it’s costing you. Your patience is thin, your energy is drained, and the meaningful moments with your family are slipping away. You know something has to change, but with so much on your plate, where do you even begin?

As a Registered Social Worker and therapist, I specialize in helping people work through trauma, depression, anxiety, and addictions. I employ an informed, yet relaxed approach to help the therapy process feel accessible. This approach helps many individuals who are new to, unsure or uncomfortable with the idea of counseling. I use a combination of therapeutic techniques, knowledge of neurobiology, physical health, and our nervous system to help people identify and challenge behaviours, reactions, and patterns they want to change or improve.

Hi, I’m Alicia—welcome! Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to offer a safe, supportive space where you can move at your own pace, whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re looking for a new fit.
I work with individuals, couples, and families—both in-person and online—helping people process past experiences, deepen their relationships, and feel more at home in their own minds and bodies. Maybe you're carrying the weight of childhood trauma and want to understand how it has shaped you.

Change starts with the relationship that we form in the therapy and then continues by building useful skills in and outside of our sessions. In practice this means that I fit best with clients who are interested in (1) understanding more about their thoughts and emotions while also (2) taking clear steps to improve their mental and physical well-being. My job as the therapist is to provide a warm and caring environment to support the client in this process.

For many years, the people who have ended up in Noelle's care are folks who have been harmed by the healthcare and educational systems. Invalidation, medical gaslighting, lack of services, long wait times, it can all add up to a pretty brutal experience where you are left feeling like no one understands or cares. Life can be a jerk to those of us who feel "different" due to pain, health issues, neurodivergence, etc. If this has been your experience, you need the right kind of support.
