Illuminate Counselling specializes in supporting individuals and couples, with a focus on women’s reproductive mental health, pregnancy loss, infertility, and pregnancy & postpartum adjustment.
Although we offer virtual services across Canada, we also love welcoming our clients to our in-person space. We find that many of our clients appreciate the warm and professional atmosphere, which is sometimes a nice break from looking at screens! We invite you to connect with us for an in-person session.
