  2. How accessible are your services?

    Accessibility is a cornerstone of my practice. I offer sliding scale rates based on individual circumstances and provide pro bono sessions for those in need, ensuring that supportive resources are available to all.

  3. What is the difference between your services and psychotherapy?

    My services focus on where you want to go and what supports that growth. Unlike psychotherapy, which may involve diagnosing or treating mental health conditions, my approach centers on navigating challenges and achieving goals within a trauma-informed framework, respecting professional boundaries.

    Typically, services like mine are considered personal development and are not covered by insurance. However, I strive to keep my offerings accessible through flexible payment options.

    I care deeply about showing up with integrity, clarity, and a commitment to ongoing learning.

I’m here to co-create a space that honours your unique path, meets you with respect, and supports your growth, at your pace.

  6. How can I tell if your services are the right path for me?

    If you're feeling the pull to grow, reconnect with your body, or show up more fully in your life, this work might be a supportive fit. Whether you're seeking personal change, deeper leadership, or just more ease in how you move through the world, my services are here to meet you. You don’t need to have it all figured out—just a willingness to be curious and engaged in your own journey.

  7. What can I expect in the first session?

    The first session lays the foundation for our work together, focusing on goal setting, understanding your context, and how it relates to broader community and societal goals. It’s an opportunity to align on how best to navigate your path forward.

  8. What is the Resilience Toolkit, and how can it benefit me?

    The Resilience Toolkit is a system for reducing stress and growing resilience in individuals, organizations, and communities. It teaches folks how to recognize their own stress and relaxation cycles, understand when stress is helping or harming them, and develop effective tools to manage stress and build lasting habits.

  9. What is Somatic Stress Release™, and how does it work?

    Somatic Stress Release™ is a holistic approach designed to help you recognize, process, and release stress held in the body. Through guided body awareness exercises, movement, and self-reflection, this practice supports the completion of stress cycles, fostering greater resilience and well-being.

  10. Who can benefit from your services?

    Anyone committed to personal growth, especially those interested in incorporating social justice, inclusivity, and anti-oppression into their development journey. This includes individuals from the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, those who have experienced violence, professionals facing burnout, and anyone eager to contribute to meaningful change in their communities and beyond.

  • Personal Empowerment & Professional Renewal

    This summer, I was going through an incredibly difficult time at work. I was off on stress leave due to an incredibly challenging boss. My GP recommended therapy as part of my return to work plan. I started coaching Camille, and it complimented the cognitive behavioural therapy I was already doing with my therapist.

    Camille gave me some somatic exercises that worked immediately for me and I'm still using. (I even shared these with my teenage boys!) Camille helped me to look at my situation differently and when I went back to work (after almost 3 months off) I was able to calm myself when I was triggered. My return to work hasn't been without roadblocks but Camille has helped me navigate those roadblocks.

    I'm incredibly grateful for Camille’s help and would wholeheartedly recommend them. Thank you Camille.

  • Safety & Thoughtfulness

    Being coached by Camille was a fantastic experience. I loved Camille’s ability to create a safe space, all the while asking intelligent and thoughtful questions. I left the sessions feeling stronger and with more focused intent.”
