Alison McKnight
Life Coach, ADHD Coach
I’m a trauma-informed coach who supports ADHDers move forward from a space of shame, overwhelm, and people-pleasing to a more grounded connection with themselves and others. In my work, I weave together nervous-system regulation, body-based awareness, and practical tools for communication, boundaries, and executive functioning. I offer a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where I meet you where you’re at, honour your pacing, and support you in exploring small, sustainable shifts that create meaningful change.

Online in Victoria, BC British Columbia
Victoria is British Columbia's capital city and a major retirement destination, giving it an older demographic profile than most Canadian cities — one that generates consistent demand for therapists working with aging, loss, caregiver stress, and the psychological dimensions of life transitions in later years. The city's government-worker culture, combined with the University of Victoria and Royal Roads University, creates a well-educated population that is generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Island Health provides public mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving Oak Bay, Saanich, and the Inner Harbour area. Victoria's separation from Metro Vancouver by water means specialist therapist access can be limited in some areas, with telehealth filling an important gap for clients seeking a specific type of match.
