Nicole (They/Them) is a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) with a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology and is a member of good standing with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association . They identify as queer, non-binary disabled, and Autistic. They are also a parent to two neurodivergent children.

Prior to working as a counsellor, Nicole worked as an education assistant in the public school system, supported childcare worker, and behaviour interventionist. They also spent two years assisting with research at SFU’s Autism and Developmental Disorders Lab.

Their practice is informed by their lived experience and their education and work background. Their approach is grounded in social justice practices and integrates elements of attachment theory, IFS, somatic-based therapies, and heavily adapted elements of “traditional” therapies. Nicole meets their clients with empathy, validation, curiosity, and a strong belief that each individual has the capacity for growth and change.

Nicole works with youth (12+), adults, and families. They have an interest in working with neurodivergent folks, 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, PDA youth and/or their families, and folks exploring their gender, sexuality, and/or preferred relationship structure.

If there is no availability, please add yourself to the waitlist on Thursday or Friday and I will do my best to get you in.

Ash dela Cruz Yip (They/Them) is a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) with a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology from Adler University. They identify as a Filipinx/Chinese, queer, trans, non-binary, able-bodied, uninvited settler on stolen Indigenous lands. Some of the roles they hold include partner, guardian of a teen, sibling, pawrent to 3 cats, friend, and athlete.

Ash chose to be a counsellor for many reasons. They have a passion for showing up for others in non-judgmental ways, challenging traditional psychotherapy and using alternative methods based in community care, and advocating for long-term change in how we experience each other, ourselves, and the world.

Their approach is collaborative, playful, empathic, and at the pace of the client. They draw mostly from narrative therapy, believing that the client knows themselves best and giving them the space to explore their experiences, and the context surrounding them, with empathy and care.

Ash enjoys working with youth (11+) and emerging adults through day-to-day struggles or significant life transitions. They have an interest in connecting with BIPOC clients, 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, neurodivergent-identifying folks and those that live outside of or challenge social norms. Some things these folks may be struggling with include depression, anxiety, distress related to racialized or 2SLGBTQIA+ discrimination, identity, neurodivergent experiences (formal or self diagnosis), or parenting teens.
