Kate Carlson, C.C.C.
Clinical Counsellor
Hi, I’m Kate. I am a clinical counsellor and work with individuals and couples from all backgrounds.
If you are feeling disconnected from your relationships, navigating challenges with sex and intimacy, or struggling with anxiety, depression, or emotional regulation, it would be an honour to walk alongside you. Together we can explore the difficult emotions and thoughts you are experiencing, and set meaningful goals that align with your strengths and values.
It is important to me that you always feel seen, heard, and respected. My goal is to create a safe space for you to land when life is challenging, and to honour the steps you take towards living a more fulfilling life.

I work alongside individuals and couples, acknowledging that you are all the expert of your own experiences.
Love, intimacy, and sexuality are deeply personal experiences, unique to each individual. My passion is helping people feel safe and comfortable in openly exploring their sexual health, desires, and fulfillment. It would be an honour to work alongside you as we navigate these conversations and move toward your personal and relationship goals.
