Now welcoming new clients – Queer and Trans affirming. I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a fifth-generation settler living and working on the traditional, unceded lands of the Lekwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ Peoples. I hold a Master’s in Counselling Psychology from UVic and I specialize in feminist therapy for folks navigating grief and loss, complex trauma and PTSD, gender-affirming care, neurodivergence, anxiety, depression, queer and trans identity, relationships, self-compassion, perfectionism, and more. If you're looking for a compassionate, feminist counsellor who truly honours your lived experience, I’d love to hear from you.
I bring specialized training in trauma recovery and anti-oppressive counselling approaches. My practice is evidence-based, and we’ll always move at your pace with your informed consent guiding us. Together, we can explore relational therapy, compassion-focused therapy, parts work, trauma recovery, and other supportive approaches that align with your needs.
I’m currently accepting new clients for virtual sessions, Tuesday to Friday. I’m really glad you found your way here, and I’d love to connect — feel free to reach out to book a session or a free consultation!
Call or Kandice Simons now for a free 15 minute consultation - (902) 915-4231
