Treatment Approach
- Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) A trauma-focused therapy that uses eye movements and imagery to help the brain reframe distressing memories. It often leads to quicker relief from symptoms compared to traditional talk therapy.
- Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.

Counselling can benefit anyone anytime! We all have times in our lives where we may struggle and require a bit of support, I am here for you, I know you are the expert in your life, and I can hold the space for you to heal.
My name is Hilary. I work with those struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, family dynamics, addiction, grief and loss, and more. I understand that every individual is on their own unique journey, and therefore I strive to meet each client where they currently are at, working collaboratively to develop strategies to move toward their individual goals.
I have my Master of Social Work and am a Registered Social Worker with the Alberta College of Social Workers. I have been a social worker for over 20 years, I believe that everyone has the capacity to make impactful changes in their lives and that we are all inherently good, striving intuitively for the best in ourselves and our loved ones.
I apply a Strength-Based Trauma-Informed lens when supporting individuals as they navigate their journey through change, this means I can assist you in finding you strengths to facilitate healing and build on the pathways to resilience. I am aware that most everyone has experienced some level of trauma over their lifetime, I am mindful of that and, ensure you will not experience re-traumatization in our time together.
I have experience working with couples and families, adults, children and adolescents, while they work to develop and incorporate lasting and meaningful change in their lives.
