Kristy Ricard

Registered Clinical Counsellor, MACP, BSc, ADHD-CCSP

Accepting NEW Clients – Are you looking for support in navigating anxious thoughts or feelings, or what feels like a dark cloud following you around? Are you tired of feeling like you’re not enough, or like the standards expected are exhausting to meet? Is a new life changing causing stress or needing exploring? Do you feel burdened by obsessive thinking, or difficulties with food and body image? Are there relationships in your life that you’d like to explore, or better understand how you feel when around others? Are you simply hoping to build self-awareness or coping strategies?

​

Together we'll create the space for you to gain insight, learn new strategies and skills, and explore the thoughts and feelings that currently take over your before, now, and future. We'll aim to move you towards feeling more confident in your ability to handle things, and create some depth in understanding. I work with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, athletic/sports preformance, trauma, obsessive compulsive disorder, stress, grief, and more. 

​

It's normal if reaching out feels scary. I've worked with individuals in public, athletics, and private health settings, and i'm looking forward to connecting with you.
