Brightside Counselling
Counselling for real life
Virtual individual and couples counselling for adults working through anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, addiction, and life changes.
Hi, I’m Kelly
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO).
I work with adults and couples who want to better understand themselves, improve their relationships, and make changes in their lives.
My approach is warm, honest, and collaborative. I gently challenge my clients when I think there’s an opportunity to grow. We’ll work together to understand what’s happening beneath the surface while building tools you can actually use in your everyday life.

Ways we can work together

EMDR and trauma-focused therapy for experiences that are still affecting you today.
Groups & Workshops
Psychoeducation workshops and group therapy programs offered throughout the year.
I’m building a calendar of psychoeducation workshops and group therapy programs covering topics like relationships, attachment, emotional regulation, recovery, and student mental health.
My Therapy Philosophy
I believe you can be both accepted and challenged
Therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what’s going on, but I don’t think therapy should stop there.
Sometimes growth means understanding why you respond the way you do. Sometimes it means trying something different, having a difficult conversation, setting a boundary, or taking a chance on yourself.
I’ll help you recognize your strengths and build on them, while gently challenging you when I think you’re capable of more.
