ABOUT US
Why Work With Kaleidoscope Counselling Collective
Kristie Brassard
MSW, RSW
Our virtual empowering and affirming therapy & counselling clinic was built on the philosophy that we’re all imperfect humans with our own strengths and struggles – there are no bad parts of us, only steps to take in our personal journey to living authentically.
When you’re struggling with your emotions, feeling disconnected, or craving more meaning in your life, it can be hard to know what you need to start feeling better.
There are so many competing priorities that you feel overwhelmed, frustrated, or stuck existing in a space that isn’t giving you enough joy, peace, or purpose. We want to help tap into the inner strength that allows you to uncover the passion, confidence, and courage you have for living wholly as you.
Our clinicians have extensive lived experience and professional expertise. We use a client-centered, integrative, and holistic approach to help you get the results you need.
Let us help you discover and embrace your authenticity by supporting your goals, identity, and life aspirations!
Kaleidoscope Counselling Collective is an inclusive, authentic and collaborative therapy practice.
INCLUSIVE
We support folks of all genders, sexual orientations, cultural backgrounds, relationship styles, and neurodivergent experiences, etc. When we're struggling it's easy to feel like outsiders. Our practice aims to create a sense of belonging for all of the clients we connect with.
AUTHENTIC
We show up in the therapy space authentically, which develops a deeper connection with our clients. By creating a safe space for expression and vulnerability, we help you find your true voice and connect with purpose that you want to carry into your own life.
COLLABORATIVE
Our therapists embrace a client-centered, strengths-based and integrative approach, meeting you where you're at. We trust in our clients' inherent wisdom & offer support, encouragement, and interventions to help you tap into your inner resources.

WE DEVELOP A COLLABORATIVE PLAN
We work with you to understand your goals and dreams, as well as the individual and collective barriers you face. Together, we develop a flexible plan specific to your needs, wants, and priorities.
WE WORK ALONGSIDE YOU
