Our counsellors have different backgrounds, areas of focus, and ways of working. What brings us together is a shared belief that counselling should be genuine, collaborative, and practical—and make space for the whole person, not just the challenges you're facing. You don't need to have the right words, know exactly what kind of counselling you need, or fit neatly into a particular diagnosis or approach. We'll start with you, where you are, and work together to find what fits your life, your goals, and what matters to you. Our counsellors bring different experience, knowledge, and tools to the work. Together, we'll explore what might help, try things out, and adjust along the way. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/get-in-touch daily 0.75 2026-08-28 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/kim-sholinder daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Kim Sholinder - Kim Sholinder, MC, RCC Registered Clinical Counsellor | Founder of Sholinder Counselling Collective https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/89a10e76-07d3-459a-b4f3-f74ae3d3021b/Rasin.jpeg Kim Sholinder - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/632feef9-4fec-4aa2-9a96-5c299bdc872f/Room.jpeg Kim Sholinder - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/cognitive-behavioral-therapy-cbt daily 0.75 2026-08-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1786559897638-KRECLJHEHB85DXZ20KO3/cbt.jpg Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Understanding the patterns that keep you stuck — and finding new ways forward. Sometimes our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours can get caught in patterns that leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or discouraged. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a practical, collaborative approach that looks at the connection between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. It can help you understand these patterns and explore different ways of responding. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we use CBT-informed counselling to help people make sense of what they're experiencing, develop practical strategies, and work toward changes that matter to them. CBT can be adapted to the individual, so the focus isn't on following a rigid formula. It's about finding approaches that make sense for you and your goals. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/dialectical-behaviour-therapy-dbt daily 0.75 2026-08-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1786559896954-CPA8F4J0ATJCGBMLH118/FNHA-therapy.webp Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) - Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) Practical skills for navigating intense emotions, difficult moments, and relationships. Sometimes emotions can feel bigger or faster than you know how to handle. You might react before you've had time to think, find yourself caught in the same arguments or patterns, or turn to behaviours that help in the moment but leave you wishing things had gone differently. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for these kinds of moments. It can help you understand what's happening, get through difficult situations, and create more space between what you're feeling and what you do next. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we use DBT-informed counselling to bring these skills into individual counselling. We can look at what's happening in your life and figure out which tools might actually be useful for you. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/narrative-therapy daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Narrative Therapy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790183513172-JIT6XYDV0Y7IPDSF25RL/unsplash-image-u8S2s4hWLgQ.jpg Narrative Therapy - Narrative Therapy You are more than the story you've been told about yourself. The way we understand ourselves can change over time. Our experiences, relationships, family, culture, and the messages we receive from other people can all become part of the story we have about who we are. Sometimes a particular story can become very strong. Narrative Therapy offers a way to pause and look at these stories with curiosity. Where did this idea come from? What experiences have shaped the way you see yourself? Does it tell the whole story? Are there other parts of your experience that might deserve some attention too? The goal isn't to ignore difficult experiences or replace them with something more positive. It's about making room for a fuller picture. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, Narrative Therapy can be one way of exploring how you understand yourself, your experiences, and the possibilities you see for your life. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/drama-therapy daily 0.75 2026-08-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Drama Therapy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790182743974-4JLVH3RXD1FY5Z7JEW3Z/unsplash-image-tjm_PfKcKFo.jpg Drama Therapy - Drama Therapy A different way to explore what you're experiencing — without having to find all the right words. Sometimes you know something is wrong, but you don't know how to explain it. Maybe you've tried talking about it and ended up saying, “I don't know,” even though you know there's more to it. Maybe you understand what's happening in your head, but it's hard to explain how it feels. Or maybe talking about something over and over doesn't seem to get you any closer to what you actually want to understand. Drama therapy offers another way in. Instead of relying only on conversation, we can use stories, characters, imagination, movement, role-play, metaphor, or simply looking at something from a different perspective. You might tell a story about something that's happening in your life. You might try out a conversation before having it. You might explore what a situation looks like from someone else's point of view. You might create something that gives shape to an experience you've been carrying around but haven't known how to describe. Or we might not do any of those things. Drama therapy isn't about performing. It's about finding a way to explore what's happening that works for you. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, drama therapy is one of the ways we can make space for experiences that don't always come easily through words. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/for-immediate-support-crisis-suicide daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/resources-for-youth daily 0.75 2026-09-06 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/for-parents-families daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/resources-for-ongoing-mental-health-support daily 0.75 2026-09-06 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/resources-for-low-cost-accessible-counselling daily 0.75 2026-09-06 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/terms-of-use daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/strengthsbased-counselling daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Strengths-Based Counselling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790183961188-NB5OX36E96TWQTND4332/unsplash-image-wsQoMyNhBw8.jpg Strengths-Based Counselling - Strengths-Based Counselling Building on the skills, experiences, and strengths you already have. When you're working through something difficult, it can be tempting to think about everything you need to change. Maybe there are things you want to handle differently. Maybe you're looking for new skills, a different way of approaching something, or support through a difficult period. Those things can be part of counselling. But we don't have to start from scratch. You've already spent years learning, adapting, figuring things out, building relationships, developing skills, and finding ways through different situations. Some of those things may be useful right now. Others may need strengthening, adapting, or building on. And there may be things you haven't had the opportunity to learn yet. Strengths-based counselling starts by finding that foundation and building from it. Together, we can look at the skills, experiences, relationships, values, and knowledge you've developed along the way. We can build on the parts that are useful, strengthen areas that need support, and develop new tools where they're needed. It's not about having all the answers already. It's about finding a place to start. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, strengths-based counselling is part of how we approach our work. We want to understand what's difficult while also paying attention to the skills, experiences, relationships, values, and knowledge you bring with you. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/about-the-sholinder-counselling-collective daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/b112ca85-c780-4221-b853-38c727a3dbfc/logo-footer.webp About The Sholinder Counselling Collective - Sholinder Counselling Collective A counselling practice built around people, relationships, and the belief that good support should feel human. Sholinder Counselling Collective brings together counsellors who share a commitment to thoughtful, collaborative, and compassionate counselling. We created the Collective with the idea that counselling doesn't need to be one-size-fits-all. People come to counselling with different experiences, identities, relationships, circumstances, and ways of making sense of the world. What helps one person may not be what helps another. We believe good counselling starts with getting to know the person, not just the problem. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/online-councelling daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1787171399415-YW4M8HWCWDOGBD8NQXUK/unsplash-image-pccGXVm8XVM.jpg Online Counselling - Online Counselling Counselling from a place where you can feel comfortable being yourself. You don't have to travel across the city, sit in a waiting room, or rearrange your entire day to make counselling possible. Sholinder Counselling Collective offers counselling online to clients across Canada, making it possible to connect with your counsellor from a private space that works for you. For some people, being at home makes counselling feel more comfortable and accessible. For others, it simply makes fitting an appointment into everyday life a little easier. Online counselling can still be personal, collaborative, and meaningful. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/phone-counselling daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1787171480659-4POUYY7WBA1MI970OLEZ/unsplash-image-v8UNH7LCDko.jpg Phone Counselling - Phone Counselling Sometimes it feels easier to talk when you don't have to be on camera. Not everyone wants to spend an hour talking to a counsellor through a screen. You may feel more comfortable speaking without being seen. You may find it easier to focus on the conversation without worrying about what's happening on camera. Or you may simply prefer talking on the phone. Sholinder Counselling Collective offers phone counselling as an alternative to video sessions for clients who prefer a more straightforward way of connecting. The important part is finding a way of counselling that feels comfortable and workable for you. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/counselling-in-victoria-bc daily 0.75 2026-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling in Victoria, BC https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Counselling in Victoria, BC https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790381811446-7CRYBP0VWWJEFO1WFJI9/unsplash-image-jgO1rPhqdEw.jpg Counselling in Victoria, BC - Counselling in Victoria, BC Sometimes you'd rather meet in person.

Finding a counsellor isn't only about credentials or choosing someone who works with the right concern. It's also about the relationship. You may want someone who is practical and direct. You may want more space to slow down and explore things. You may connect with someone who shares some of your experiences or perspectives, or you may simply want someone who listens in a way that feels genuine. There isn't one counsellor who is right for everyone. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, our counsellors have different backgrounds, experiences, and ways of working.

Starting counselling can come with a lot of questions. What will we talk about? What if I don't know what to say? Am I supposed to have goals? How much am I expected to share? What if I don't like something we're doing? There isn't one way counselling has to look. Your counsellor will help guide the process, but you'll have a say in what you work on and how you work on it. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/fees-funding daily 0.75 2026-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790822387574-CZAEYMK513SLQFU9LXEH/unsplash-image-lZ_4nPFKcV8.jpg Fees, Funding & Direct Billing - Fees, Funding & Direct Billing Understanding the cost of counselling should be straightforward.

Everyone experiences stress and worry. Sometimes they come and go with what's happening in your life. Other times, they can start to feel harder to manage or begin affecting the things that matter to you. Maybe your mind doesn't seem to switch off. Maybe you're constantly thinking about what could go wrong, finding it difficult to relax, or feeling like you're always trying to catch up. You might know exactly what's causing the stress. Or you might not be sure why you feel this way at all. You don't have to figure that out before reaching out. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we provide counselling for anxiety and stress with a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach.

Self-harm can be difficult to talk about, especially when you're worried about being misunderstood. You might not know how to explain what you're experiencing, or you may have had people make assumptions about why you self-harm that don't quite fit. Your experience might have been part of your life for a long time, or you may have only recently started thinking about self-harm. You might be self-harming, having urges to do so, or have stopped and still find those thoughts coming back. You may understand some of it, none of it, or simply know that something about it feels worth talking about. You don't need to arrive with an explanation or a particular goal. Counselling can be a place to talk openly about what's happening, make sense of your experience, and explore whatever feels important to you. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we approach conversations about self-harm with compassion, curiosity, and without judgment. We'll meet you where you are, take the time to understand your experience together, and, if you would like, find tools and strategies that fit your life. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/suicidal-thoughts daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For Suicidal Thoughts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1787169922402-NA6XV9ET8SFTM4WB75OQ/unsplash-image-4wKyPcla3T0.jpg Counselling For Suicidal Thoughts - Counselling for Suicidal Thoughts You don't have to keep difficult thoughts to yourself. Thoughts about suicide can be difficult to talk about, especially when you're worried about how someone might respond or whether they'll understand what you're trying to say.

You may want them to stop, feel unsure about what you want, or find yourself moving between different thoughts and feelings about living and dying. You don't have to have an explanation for what's happening, or know what you want to do about it. Counselling can be a place to talk openly about your experience, make sense of what's happening, and explore what feels important to you.

Trauma can affect the way you experience yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. You may notice that certain situations bring up strong reactions, that you have a hard time trusting people, or that relationships feel more complicated than you'd like them to. You might feel on edge, shut down when things get difficult, or find yourself responding in ways you don't fully understand. Sometimes you know exactly where these feelings come from. Sometimes you don't make the connection at all. You may be dealing with something that happened recently, something from years ago, or experiences that happened repeatedly over time. You don't have to know exactly what happened, what to call it, or how it affects you before you reach out. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we'll work together to understand what you're experiencing and what might be connected to your past. From there, we can explore what you need now and what might help you feel more grounded, connected, and able to move forward. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/borderline-personality-disorder-bpd daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790116264693-TD6II7X8Y3STDGQ9E8OA/unsplash-image-4xe-yVFJCvw.jpg Counselling For Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) - Counselling For Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) When emotions feel intense, relationships feel complicated, and finding your footing isn't always easy. BPD can affect how you experience emotions, relationships, and your sense of yourself. You may notice that emotions can become intense quickly or take a long time to settle. Relationships might feel particularly important but also difficult to navigate, especially when you're unsure where you stand with someone or worried about being rejected. You might also be trying to understand patterns of impulsive behaviour, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, feeling disconnected from yourself, or uncertainty about what you need and want. These experiences can be exhausting, confusing, and difficult to make sense of on your own. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we provide counselling for people living with BPD with a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach. We'll start with what's happening for you and work together to understand patterns, build skills and options, and find strategies that fit your life. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/emotional-regulation daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For Emotional Regulation https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790116408004-VF8Z4RM5XRYZMN8H00ZN/unsplash-image-MtHiQ8NCIoM.jpg Counselling For Emotional Regulation - Counselling for Emotional Regulation For when emotions can be difficult to understand, manage, or express. Emotions are part of everyday life, but that doesn't mean they're always easy to navigate. You might have a hard time figuring out what you're feeling, expressing what you need, or understanding why certain situations affect you so strongly. Maybe you react quickly and wish you had handled things differently, or find yourself shutting down when there's too much happening at once. Sometimes the challenge is managing emotions in the moment. Other times, it's finding your way back after something difficult has happened. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we approach emotional regulation with curiosity, compassion, and practical tools. We'll work together to understand your emotional patterns, explore what influences them, and build skills and strategies that fit your life. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/adhd-audhd daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For ADHD & AuDHD https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1787457858044-5C4WTRZ9ZIXXVX8RPLLC/unsplash-image-lJw1bptCJYk.jpg Counselling For ADHD & AuDHD - Counselling For ADHD & AuDHD For when some things take more energy than they seem like they should. ADHD and AuDHD can affect everyday life in ways that aren't always obvious to other people. Maybe you're getting things done, but it takes an enormous amount of effort to keep up. Maybe you can focus intensely on something you're interested in, but you can't seem to start something you know needs to be done. Maybe you're constantly trying to catch up. You forget things you genuinely meant to remember. Small tasks pile up. Plans that seemed manageable suddenly feel impossible. You may have found systems that work for a while, only to have them stop working when life changes. Maybe you're easily overwhelmed by noise, people, demands, emotions, or too many things happening at once. Maybe you need more time to recover than other people seem to understand. You might find relationships complicated to navigate. You may struggle to explain what you need, become overwhelmed during conflict, or find yourself wondering why something that seemed small to someone else affected you so much. Maybe you've spent years trying to adapt, compensate, push through, or figure things out on your own. Or maybe you've recently been diagnosed and are looking back at parts of your life with a different understanding. You don't have to know exactly why things feel difficult before reaching out. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we take a collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach. We'll start with your experience rather than assuming what ADHD or AuDHD should look like for you. Together, we'll explore what's happening, what matters to you, and what might make things feel more manageable. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/identity-self-esteem daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For Identity & Self-Esteem https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Counselling For Identity & Self-Esteem https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790118476003-24A7KJ4RT7U2EJGSYW0V/unsplash-image-ylU-b7pcgpY.jpg Counselling For Identity & Self-Esteem - Counselling For Identity & Self-Esteem When the way you see yourself starts to feel complicated. The way you see yourself can change over time. Sometimes you may feel confident and comfortable in who you are. Other times, you may find yourself questioning yourself, comparing yourself to other people, or wondering whether you're enough. Maybe something has changed in your life. Maybe a relationship has affected how you see yourself. Maybe you're figuring out who you are outside of other people's expectations. Or maybe you've been hard on yourself for a long time and aren't sure how to relate to yourself differently. For some people, questions of identity can also include gender, sexuality, culture, family, belonging, or the experience of being understood — or not understood — by the people around you. You don't have to have a clear answer about who you are before reaching out. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we take a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach to counselling. We'll start with your experience and work together to understand what's shaping the way you see yourself and what you want to feel differently. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/addiction-substance-use daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For Addiction & Substance Use https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1787169391056-IS663HR2TF4EB4DF3BEA/unsplash-image-HJmxky8Fvmo.jpg Counselling For Addiction & Substance Use - Counselling for Addiction & Substance Use When a pattern of behaviour or substance use starts to feel difficult to change, it can help to have a place to talk it through. People can develop relationships with substances, activities, or behaviours that become difficult to change — even when they know something isn't working for them anymore. Sometimes something that started as a way to relax, cope, connect, escape, or feel good gradually becomes something you rely on more than you intended. You may find yourself spending more time, money, or energy on something than you'd like, or continuing a behaviour even when it's starting to affect other parts of your life. You might be thinking about alcohol or other substances. You might be struggling with gambling, gaming, compulsive spending, internet use, or another behaviour that feels difficult to control. Or you may simply have a sense that something has become harder to manage than you'd like. Maybe you're thinking about cutting back, stopping, taking a break, changing a pattern, or simply understanding what's happening a little better. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we take a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach. We'll start with your experience and work together to understand what's happening, what role the behaviour, activity, or substance may be playing in your life, and what you want to be different. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/preteens-teens daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For Preteens & Teens https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Counselling For Preteens & Teens https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1787252828408-36W3MO8KNLXCDQQRPOW2/unsplash-image-F2c_deFDfpo.jpg Counselling For Preteens & Teens - Counselling for Preteens & Teens Sometimes being a teenager is just a lot. School, friendships, family, relationships, identity, independence, and figuring out who you are can be a lot to navigate. Sometimes you know exactly what's wrong. Sometimes you just know that something doesn't feel right. Maybe you're feeling anxious or overwhelmed. Maybe your mood has changed, emotions feel harder to manage, relationships are getting complicated, or something difficult has happened. You don't have to know exactly what's going on before asking for support.

Young adulthood can come with a lot of expectations. You're supposed to know what you want, make good decisions, manage your responsibilities, build relationships, and somehow figure out what you're doing with your life. But real life isn't usually that straightforward. Maybe you're overwhelmed by school, work, relationships, or expectations. Maybe you're struggling with anxiety, confidence, motivation, or your sense of direction. Maybe something from the past is still affecting you. Or maybe nothing feels particularly “wrong” — you just know that something needs to change. You don't have to have it all figured out before asking for support. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we provide counselling for young adults with a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach. We'll start with what's happening, figure out what matters to you, and work together to find tools and strategies that fit your life. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/parents-caregivers daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Counselling For Parents & Caregivers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Counselling For Parents & Caregivers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1787446583859-C3W8LCCQF5NK5OU0YURR/unsplash-image-gezvNbGZJtQ.jpg Counselling For Parents & Caregivers - Counselling for Parents & Caregivers Parenting and caregiving can be complicated. You don't have to figure it all out on your own. Being a parent or caregiver can bring moments of connection and joy, but it can also be exhausting, frustrating, confusing, and hard to navigate. Maybe you're struggling with a particular situation with your child. Maybe you're finding it difficult to know how to respond to their needs. Maybe family conflict has become harder to manage, or you're feeling overwhelmed by the responsibility of caring for someone else. You might be questioning your parenting, struggling to set boundaries, finding yourself reacting in ways you don't like, or simply feeling like you're running out of ways to handle what's happening. Counselling can give you a place to step back, talk honestly about what's happening, and work out what might help. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we provide counselling for parents and caregivers who want support navigating the challenges of their role. Our approach is genuine, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based. We'll work with you to better understand what's happening, explore what may be getting in the way, and find tools and strategies that fit your family and your life. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/family-counselling daily 0.75 2026-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Family Counselling https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1786559898277-LXVFU2NTNAOJ9CG2B8JT/family-theraphy.jpg Family Counselling - Counselling For Families When things feel complicated at home, it can help to have a place to work through them together. Families change. Relationships change. And sometimes things become harder to navigate than they used to be. Maybe you're going through a transition. Maybe communication has become more difficult. Maybe you're trying to support a family member through something they're experiencing. Or maybe you simply want some help understanding each other a little better. Family counselling can provide a space to slow things down, hear different perspectives, and figure out what might help. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, family counselling is collaborative, practical, and tailored to the people involved. We'll start with what's happening for your family and work together to find ways of understanding, communicating, and moving forward that feel right for you and your family. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/accessibility-statement daily 0.75 2026-08-21 https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/privacy-confidentiality daily 0.75 2026-08-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790119711925-BX2MK4KM93U1YF1EUFU4/unsplash-image-JFk0dVyvdvw.jpg Privacy & Confidentiality - Privacy & Confidentiality You should know what happens with what you share in counselling. Privacy and confidentiality are an important part of counselling. You should know what information is kept private, when information may need to be shared, and what you can expect from your counsellor. We'll talk about confidentiality with you when you begin counselling, including the situations where it has limits. You can also ask questions about privacy at any point along the way. The specific privacy and confidentiality requirements can vary depending on where you and your counsellor are located, as well as the professional and legal requirements that apply to your situation. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/our-counselling-philosophy daily 0.75 2026-08-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790827678184-5R0DX02ORM7C354XG9BW/unsplash-image-rKZuT8IU8dI.jpg Our Counselling Philosophy - Our Counselling Philosophy Counselling should feel like a place where you can be yourself, not another place where you have to mask. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we believe counselling works best when it is something we figure out together. We don't see the counsellor as the expert on your life, or counselling as a process of telling you what you should do. We bring our training, experience, curiosity, and different therapeutic tools. You bring your own perspective, experiences, and knowledge of what matters to you. From there, we work together to decide what we explore and what approaches, tools, and strategies might work for you and your life. That might mean talking things through, learning something practical, looking at a situation from a different angle, trying different things, or simply making space to understand something more clearly. There isn't one way counselling has to look. Our job isn't to fit you into a particular approach. It's to find the combination of approaches, tools, and strategies that fits the work we're doing together. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/grief-loss daily 0.75 2026-08-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Counselling For Grief & Loss https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790116640718-OZCA96HO1EV12BJBZXH1/unsplash-image-60VGXVP2-7M.jpg Counselling For Grief & Loss - Counselling For Grief & Loss When someone or something important has been lost, and you're figuring out how to live with what comes next. Grief can change the way everything feels. You may be grieving someone who has died. You may be grieving a relationship, a family connection, a version of your life, your health, a dream, or something else that mattered deeply to you. You may feel sadness, anger, relief, guilt, numbness, confusion, loneliness, or emotions that seem to change from one moment to the next. You may also find yourself functioning relatively well one day and struggling much more the next. There isn't one right way to grieve. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we take a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach to grief counselling. We won't ask you to get over your loss or move through grief on a particular timeline.

Adult life comes with a lot to navigate. Work, relationships, family, responsibilities, change, and figuring out what you want for yourself can all take up space. Maybe there's something specific you'd like help with. Maybe you've been feeling stressed, anxious, stuck, or disconnected from yourself. Or maybe you can't quite put your finger on what's going on—you just know you'd like some support. You don't need to have it all figured out before you reach out. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we provide counselling for adults with a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach.

Sometimes it changes without asking you first. And sometimes even a change you wanted can be harder than you expected. Starting university. Moving away from home. A new job or career change. Becoming a parent. A relationship beginning or ending. Moving somewhere new. Changes within your family. Retirement. Or reaching a point where you're simply not sure what comes next. Major life changes aren't always negative, and they aren't always unexpected. Sometimes adjusting to something you chose can be difficult too. You might feel excited about what's ahead and uncertain about it at the same time. You might miss parts of what came before. Or you may be trying to find your footing while a lot is changing around you. Counselling for life transitions can give you somewhere to talk through what's changing, the decisions you're facing, and what you want the next part of your life to look like. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/sexual-gender-diversity daily 0.75 2026-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Sexual & Gender Diversity https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790373833783-MCJ6LPPJXRVEZFVTRA0Z/unsplash-image-Sl_tMSimgr4.jpg Sexual & Gender Diversity - Counselling for Sexual & Gender Diversity Sexuality and gender can be deeply personal, and there isn't one way to experience or understand either. Maybe you've known how you identify for a long time. Maybe you're still figuring some things out. You might be thinking about coming out, relationships, family, culture, faith, or what feels right for you. Or you might be looking for counselling for something else entirely and want to work with someone who is comfortable talking about sexual and gender diversity when it matters. You can bring as much or as little of this into counselling as you want.

Depression doesn’t always look the same. You might feel sad, flat, disconnected, irritable, exhausted, or like you don’t have much left to give. Things you usually enjoy may not feel the same. Getting started can feel difficult, and everyday things like work, school, relationships, chores, or looking after yourself might take more effort than they used to. Or you may still be doing everything you normally do while finding it much harder on the inside. Sometimes there’s something you can point to. Other times, you may not know why you’re feeling this way. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we take a warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based approach. We’ll start with what you’ve been experiencing and work together to understand what’s been difficult, what might be helpful, and what you’d like to be different. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/spirituality-meaning daily 0.75 2026-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Spirituality & Meaning https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790375236973-FBT3RHBC9ADM86CY650O/unsplash-image-V4ec38MKx0w.jpg Spirituality & Meaning - Counselling for Spirituality & Meaning Sometimes the questions that bring you to counselling don't have simple answers. You might be thinking about what you believe, what matters to you, or what gives your life meaning. Maybe your relationship with faith or spirituality is changing. You might be questioning beliefs you grew up with, trying to understand what you believe now, or figuring out how your values fit with the life you're living. Or perhaps you wouldn't describe any of this as spiritual. You may be thinking about who you are, what you want your life to be about, how you want to spend your time, or what any of it means to you. These kinds of questions are sometimes described as existential. They don't necessarily have one answer to find. Whatever you are exploring, we can work through it together. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/internal-family-systems-parts-work daily 0.75 2026-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Internal Family Systems / Parts Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790378911420-3VKYCPYZFBBJ0XD5N6JB/unsplash-image-7ilpPBxTavU.jpg Internal Family Systems / Parts Work - Internal Family Systems (IFS) & Parts Work in Counselling Sometimes different parts of you can want completely different things. Part of you might want to make a change while another part wants everything to stay exactly as it is. You might want to say no and find yourself saying yes. Feel excited about an opportunity and want to run from it at the same time. Know that something is okay and still have a part of you that isn't convinced. Internal Family Systems (IFS) is one approach to understanding experiences like these. Rather than treating the different thoughts, feelings, or reactions we have as things that need to be pushed away, IFS invites us to get curious about them. Parts work is a broader way of working with these different aspects of ourselves, including what they may be trying to do and what happens when they pull us in different directions. You don't need to already think about yourself as having “parts.” It's simply one way you and your counsellor might make sense of what's happening. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/cognitive-defusion daily 0.75 2026-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Cognitive Defusion https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790377723560-MWVRPED66SIP90N9XV36/unsplash-image-RqR2pnTpmHA.jpg Cognitive Defusion - Cognitive Defusion in Counselling A thought can feel very convincing without being something you have to act on. Maybe your mind keeps returning to I'm going to mess this up. Or They must be upset with me. Or I can't handle this. Trying to argue with a thought or make it disappear doesn't always help. Sometimes it can be more useful to notice that the thought is there and change how you respond to it. Cognitive defusion is a concept and set of exercises associated with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Rather than trying to prove whether a thought is true or false, defusion can help you notice a thought as a thought—something your mind is doing in that moment. The goal isn't to stop thinking, get rid of difficult thoughts, or convince yourself to think positively. It's to create a little more room to decide what you want to do when a thought shows up. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/bronfenbrenners-ecological-systems-theory daily 0.75 2026-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790376573078-62XYNGHVCJNJVAMTFNZ4/unsplash-image-YXAimc5brXs.jpg Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory - Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory in Counselling Sometimes it helps to look at what's happening in the context of the rest of your life. None of us lives in isolation. There are relationships, families, friends, schools, workplaces, communities, cultures, expectations, opportunities, barriers, and larger circumstances around us. Different parts of our lives can also affect one another. Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory is a framework for looking at that bigger picture. Originally developed by psychologist Urie Bronfenbrenner as a theory of human development, it looks at the ongoing relationship between people and the different environments and systems around them. In counselling, this framework can be one way of understanding what's happening in the context of your life. It doesn't assume that your environment explains everything, or that one particular part of your life is the cause of a problem. It simply gives us more to consider than what is happening for you individually. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/where-to-find-us daily 0.75 2026-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/5ca2609f-367a-436e-8361-31920d371cb1/Kim+-+Headshot.png Where To Find Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/81c2f75b-34d5-4505-a49d-2df9a0e1af9e/profile-picture+%281%29.png Where To Find Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790208600551-GM05FNDX17AZJXNUZ76I/unsplash-image-pccGXVm8XVM.jpg Where To Find Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790208629865-6Z8A7517NYBQ4WGNH4PV/unsplash-image-v8UNH7LCDko.jpg Where To Find Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1786559896954-CPA8F4J0ATJCGBMLH118/FNHA-therapy.webp Where To Find Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790208727450-K20QOCUDF3RECP7J98UA/unsplash-image-lU9HtGZSia8.jpg Where To Find Us - Where to Find Us Where you meet with your counsellor can matter.

Maybe you're looking for someone your teenager might actually feel comfortable talking to. Maybe you're trying to figure out what comes next in your own life. Maybe things at home have become harder lately, or you're looking for somewhere to talk through something you've been dealing with. You don't need to know exactly what kind of support you're looking for before you start. At Sholinder Counselling Collective, we work with adolescents and teens, young adults, adults, parents and caregivers, and families. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/what-we-can-help-with daily 0.75 2026-10-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1780932030.571772-JQLKEAXTRLPAMOZUWRZV/imgg-gg3p-BC-DQ-S-cef24ac4.png What We Can Help With https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1780932030.925362-APRTEUCFNHSPOZLCXGLA/imgg-gg3p-BC-DQ-M-1f0d43cb.png What We Can Help With https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1780932031.031863-NXFUHURWYVQAQFCNRMHX/imgg-gg3p-BC-DQ-O-c16fd78a.png What We Can Help With https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1780932030.647785-BYXKMOVIUCLPIFJUCRVO/imgg-gg3p-BC-DQ-M-e3467c82.png What We Can Help With https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1780932031.011044-HQYJCWTPVIDSHAHUIARE/imgg-gg3p-BC-DRJ-9a3ac480.png What We Can Help With https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1780932031.11286-ZBCPULHSCKQTWCTIVHHM/imgg-gg3p-BC-DQ-U-4232d553.png What We Can Help With https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790196696960-6Y0HQ6CZ3E02NTG6FVS3/What+we+can+help+with What We Can Help With - What We Can Help With People come to counselling for lots of reasons.

You might also want to know who you'll be talking to, how they approach counselling, what matters to them in their work, and whether you think you could feel comfortable being yourself around them. Sholinder Counselling Collective brings together counsellors with different backgrounds, experiences, areas of focus, and ways of working. What we share is a belief that counselling should make room for you as a whole person — and that you should have a say in what the work looks like. https://www.sholindercounsellingcollective.com/helpful-resources daily 0.75 2026-10-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Helpful Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Helpful Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Helpful Resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a7cb08272246112bdc037fe/1790526910061-6SK7T1TSPEKOWX7DEFBB/unsplash-image-6rWsNWZ-pMM.jpg Helpful Resources - Helpful Resources Sometimes you're looking for something other than a counselling appointment.
