Hey There.
Nice to meet you.
Before you get to your session and we ask you to share your story, we figured we’d better share ours too. We’re going to pretend we’re sitting across the table from you at a local cafe, coffee in hand, just chatting (because these about pages can get pretty boring, and we’re not into that).
If we went for coffee, here’s what we’d tell you:
Life isn’t easy (we know, big shocker). So many of us are wading through burnout, propping our phones up against our piles of self-help books to scroll Instagram hoping for inspiration and coming up with heaps of comparison and credit card debt we’re trying not to look at.
We think it’s time for something different.
That’s where SoulSoothe comes in:
a judgement-free space for you to relax into healing.
SoulSoothe was founded in 2023 to provide you with the experience you are looking for. You get to decide how your time with us is spent. You set the goals and the pace. If you want to simply talk, we can do that. If you want to sit in silence, we can also do that. And if you are wanting to incorporate Christian spirituality into your session, our counsellors are willing to pray with you as well.
We approach every person with an open heart and open mind. Whatever your ethnic, cultural, or spiritual background, we would be glad to support you on your healing journey.
Meet The Team

When relationships feel strained, trauma continues to shape your present, or addiction has become a way of coping with overwhelming emotions, it can be difficult to know where to begin. I offer a non-judgmental space where you can slow down, make sense of your experiences, and move toward lasting change. Together, we work at a pace that feels safe and meaningful, helping you reconnect with yourself and the people who matter most.
Grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help individuals and couples make sense of trauma, addiction, and relationship challenges through an attachment lens. Together, we work toward greater connection, emotional security, and freedom from patterns that no longer serve you.
I value authenticity, curiosity, and genuine connection. As a social worker and counsellor, I consider it a privilege to walk alongside people through some of life's most difficult moments. My hope is that our work together helps you heal from the burdens of the past and build more secure, meaningful relationships with yourself and others.

Denise Carey
BSW, RSW
For over 30 years, I have helped youth and adults experience healing and freedom in individual and group settings. In that time, I have gained training and skill in a variety of approaches to support people struggling personally and in their relationships with addiction, trauma, interpersonal violence, and other challenges. I am a caring and empathetic person, and you can expect a session with me to be safe and gentle. We move together at a pace that feels right and in a direction that matters to you.
In my sessions, I use a variety of counselling approaches, including CBT and Narrative Therapy. Most recently, I have completed training in Sozo: an inner healing and spiritual deliverance approach grounded in evidence-based and trauma-informed practices. I bring this approach into my sessions, as the client feels comfortable, allowing them to get to the root of the issue and experiencing lasting healing.

Erin Walsh
MSW, RSW
In every area of my life, I’m passionate about creating a safe space where healing can take place. With compassion, empathy, and gentleness, I strive to recognize and honour the strength and courage in others. I believe in a holistic approach to healing—one that acknowledges the deep connection between mind, body, and soul, and the importance of their integration in the journey toward wholeness.
I believe genuine healing is possible through a safe and caring therapeutic relationship, combined with hard work and a willingness to grow. While the road to healing is not always easy, I hold onto the abundant hope that meaningful change is always within reach.
I’m trained in EMDR and draw from Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, Attachment Theory, and other therapeutic frameworks. I integrate these approaches thoughtfully to meet the unique needs of each person I work with.
Outside the therapy room, you’ll often find me spending time with my husband and children, enjoying the outdoors, or reading about neuroscience.

Hope has always been the lens through which I see the world. My own experiences with abuse, trauma, growth, and transformation allow me to meet clients with genuine empathy and deep respect for the courage it takes to seek support. I consider it a profound honour to walk alongside people as challenges begin to unfold into meaningful opportunities for change. Whether you arrive carrying trauma, grief, confusion, or a desire for something different, my role is to help you move toward a grounded, meaningful, and whole life.
Together, we will uncover what has been weighing on you and strengthen what will help you stand. This is a space to reclaim your voice, honour your story, and move toward healing, restoration, and self-trust. With nearly a decade of experience as a Registered Dietitian and a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology, I offer evidence-based practices within a safe, personalized, and compassionate therapeutic relationship. My work is trauma- and violence-informed, grounded in safety, hope, and connection, and shaped by both professional training and lived experience.

April MacEwen
Student, MACPC
Whether you are facing a specific challenge, navigating a life transition, or simply feeling stuck, I believe that counselling can give you the opportunity to slow down and make sense of what you are experiencing in a safe environment. I will take the time to get to know your unique experiences, challenges, and strengths, and would consider it a privilege to work with you toward your goals.
My primary approach is Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), while also drawing on aspects of Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. With warmth and compassion, I aim to help clients better understand their emotions, relationships, and patterns so they can develop greater self-awareness and move toward meaningful change.
I am currently a counselling student completing my practicum at SoulSoothe Counselling & Wellness, where I provide counselling services under the supervision of experienced professionals. I am also a student member of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA). Outside of work, I am a wife and mother who enjoys reading, trying new recipes (often putting my own “twist” on them), and spending time outdoors—especially when it involves a long walk, hike, or bike ride with my family.
