Hi, I’m Kala, a Registered Clinical Counsellor, and the founder of True Peace Counselling.
You might book a session with me if you would like to work with a counsellor who is friendly, warm, and compassionate. I often support clients who grew up in difficult or emotionally painful environments and are now ready to bring healing to those early wounds. Together, we work on overcoming people pleasing, asserting boundaries, and developing a stronger sense of self-worth.
I am also a Perinatal Mental Health Practitioner. With two littles of my own, I understand that early parenthood can be a challenging time, and I provide warm support to moms and dads who are in this stage of their life journey.
If it sounds like we might be a good fit, book a free consultation now so that we can talk about working together.
Fun facts about Kala:
- I spent my childhood and adolescent years moving around. My family lived in various communities in Northern Canada, as well as in Honduras and Nicaragua.
- The most impactful job I ever had was 7 years of working at a men’s shelter in downtown Victoria. My time there deepened my understanding of the impacts of trauma and substance use in ways that I couldn’t imagine beforehand. I am incredibly grateful for my time working there.
- I am such a big fan of Tolkein’s The Lord of the Rings that I actually collect old copies of the books.
