Spending time in nature is associated with lower stress and improved mental well-being. Connecting with nature can be as simple as noticing nearby greenery and the colour of the sky. Start where you are 💚

Meet Kirsten, founder of Healing Quest Counselling 🌿

Kirsten is a Registered Clinical Social Worker with a clinical specialization in trauma, attachment, and relational healing. Her work has a strong focus on neurodivergence, including ADHD, and understanding how our nervous systems and early relational experiences continue to shape us throughout adulthood.

Before founding Healing Quest Counselling, Kirsten spent several years working with children, youth and families in community and school-based mental health. She now works primarily with adults in private practice, while also contributing to professional education, teaching and building opportunities for connection and consultation among local therapists.

Kirsten brings curiosity, warmth and a healthy appreciation for the complexity of being human to her work - along with a firm belief that healing happens in relationships.

Some exciting news from Healing Quest! 🤓

Our owner and Registered Clinical Social Worker, Kirsten Boulier, has published a guest article with Meno Square exploring the overlap between perimenopause, brain fog, and ADHD.

✨Why Can’t I Focus Anymore? Understanding Perimenopause, Brain Fog, and When an ADHD Assessment May Help✨

The article looks at what current research tells us about hormonal changes and executive functioning, why ADHD in women can go undetected, and what we do (and importantly, don’t yet) know about the relationship between ADHD and perimenopause.

Thank you to Meno Square for the opportunity to contribute to thoughtful, evidence-informed conversations about women’s health. 🤓

Learning to prioritize rest can be a difficult journey. Our bodies and minds need it more than we allow in this society sometimes. At Healing Quest Counselling we celebrate the rebellious choice to do… nothing at all 😌💚

This is what we mean when we say “empowering you to live fully” 🌿💚 Healing Quest Counselling believes empowerment is about building confidence to take care of yourself in a world that doesn’t always encourage balance and self-care.

Self-compassion. Play. Stillness. Creativity. Meaningful connections… boundaries. We would be glad to work with you on these things, and help you live fully.
