welcome

I'm Meghan, a counsellor, a yoga teacher, a mom, a wife, and an entrepreneur, but most of all, an advocate for encouraging people to come back into connection with themselves.

After getting my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the University of Victoria, I worked as a counsellor for over a decade within the health authority and non-profit organizations. I worked primarily with families and women. I loved it - to really SEE women, in their darkness, in their pain, in their openness to shift, to rewrite old stories, to DECIDE who they are now and who they want to be…it is such a privilege to witness. 

​

When my first son was one year old, my mom got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.  I became her primary caregiver, as my dad had already been diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s. It was an extremely challenging, trauma-filled time for our family. I had another baby during my parent’s battles and took my Yoga Teacher Training. I was seeking that inner connection, that inner peace - truly seeking something more to help me cope with our life circumstances and give me the balance I so desperately sought. 

​

In January of 2017, my mom passed away at the age of 57  - it was an incredibly tough time. My babies were 1 and 3. I was barely surviving. I decided to step back from counselling to work on my own healing. 18 months later, my dad passed away from Alzheimer's at the age of 63 and 2 months later, my mother-in-law passed away from ovarian cancer at the age of 64. I was in deep pain and mourning. My family was devastated. It was more loss than I knew how to cope with. During the next four years, I worked with many different professionals to support my healing,  process my grief, dig into old stories that were no longer serving me, and ultimately learned how to fill up my own cup and give to others from my overflow rather than from within me. As women, as mothers, we often give everything of ourselves to serve others (our children, spouses, families, friends, work etc.), leaving ourselves depleted. I became passionate about teaching others how to fill themselves up first and how that ripple effect would impact their worlds. One of the gifts from my mom's passing was the realization that life is short - that time is precious, and that we only get one shot at this! Through my transition into motherhood, my grief, and my own healing, I have learned the power of honouring our emotions & our bodies and the power of connecting with our innermost selves. I will help you tap into the power within you too. 

Now that my children are in school, I have re-entered the counselling world renewed and from a healed space. I work a few days a week as a mental health counsellor with VIHA and have a few days a week of private practice where I offer individual and group counselling. I am currently working through my Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology and continue to immerse myself in professional development to stay current and grow in my skills. 

I teach Prenatal Yoga and Mom & Baby Yoga, as I believe that we need additional support, community, and connection at these life stages. I love to bring mama’s together to create that feeling of being seen, of knowing they are not alone and that they have a tribe cheering them on. 

I am honoured to work with you, truly see you, and serve as a guide to realizing your true potential and desires. Utilizing my training in counselling, yoga, and meditation, I get to support women from all walks of life and at all life stages. Whether you’re struggling as a mama or in your relationships, looking for your purpose outside of parenthood, or experiencing grief and loss, I’m here for it all.

Let’s begin the journey…
