We’re wired for connection, but it doesn’t mean we feel that connection. Too often many of us feel isolated and alone, disconnected from who we are or want to be. There might be a longing for things to change, maybe to feel at home in your own skin, but instead there is a feeling of being stuck. Change, healing, and transitions don’t have to feel overwhelming or exhausting.

Consider an experience of change with greater ease, embodying a presence of connection, joy, or kindness?

>“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” Anis Anin

This is an invitation to take steps towards your becoming and your belonging through choice, vulnerability, and movement. Together, we will engage with a gentle and trauma-informed approach that offers generative opportunities to befriend your body and clarify your sense of self, to feel some calmness and clarity in your thoughts. I take time to meet you where you’re at, engaging with curiosity while supporting you to gain direction for your life.

I refer to myself as a body and land-based practitioner, bridging the internal landscape with the wilds of the land. So much so, if you’re interested, your counseling session could be outside on the land within nature, incorporating land-based inquiry into your healing journey.

Combining skills developed within my Masters of Social Work at the University of Calgary, I integrate years of experience as a wilderness expedition facilitator, working with the land to support my own healing; skill refinement as a facilitator, trainer and supervisor in Trauma Center-Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) through the Center for Trauma and Embodiment; and training in a Somatic Experiencing with clinical skills as a Registered Social Worker.

I am inspired and humbled by healing journeys that require vulnerability, humility and sometimes a leap of faith mixed in with some playfulness! I strive to collaboratively create a space for you to authentically engage with your pathway to connection and belonging.

Please reach out when the timing feels right for you. If you have any questions, please feel free to visit my website at traumasensitiveyogawest.ca or reach out to me via email at nicola@canmorecounselling.com.

I look forward to when our paths cross!

Warmly,

Nicola she/they

Hey, hi, hello—I’m Stanley! I am a second-year Master of Counselling Candidate and practicum student counsellor under the supervision of Dr. Melissa Jay, Director of Canmore Counselling and Registered Psychologist. I also provide counselling care to students at the UBCO Counselling Centre.

Whether you’re new to counselling or have prior experience, I strive to ensure the process centers around your unique hopes and needs. I believe that counselling fosters an authentic relationship with your whole self, enriching every aspect of your life that you value. My practice is trauma-informed, rooted in humanistic traditions, Relational-Cultural Theory (RCT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which together emphasize resilience, self-compassion, and psychological flexibility. These approaches encourage us to take meaningful actions toward the lives we desire. I see counselling as a collaborative process, walking alongside you on life’s many winding paths and forks, and I honour the privilege of joining you on this journey.

I have an affinity for working with individuals navigating life transitions, identity exploration, and those seeking support on their mental wellness journey. I currently manage wellness programs for teens and youth with anxiety, as well as behavioural and emotional regulation challenges. Additionally, I have a breadth of experience working with adults, international students, first responders, and individuals with PTSD, anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and neurodiversity. I am a queer, person of colour and warmly welcome folks of all identities, social locations, and experiences to come as you are and as you please.

I engage in personal counselling as a practice of my own care and development. Outside of counselling, I love spending time with my partner, friends, and family, playing cards or board games, hiking, paddleboarding, and playing with—or, more accurately, being herded by—my corgi, Oatey.

Thank you for visiting our Canmore Counselling page. I hope you find the right options for your journey, and I would be honoured to walk alongside you.

Warmly, Stan (he/him)
