welcome
Counselling for motherhood.
You're in the right place.

hi.
I’m Meghan. A mom, a wife, a registered counsellor, a deeply feeling soul, a yoga teacher, and a fellow human navigating this beautifully messy journey of parenthood!
This is a space for mothers and parents who are carrying a lot. The love, the worry, the tenderness, the stretch of becoming someone new over and over again. If you’re longing for a place to breathe, to feel understood, and to make sense of what’s unfolding inside you and around you… you’re in the right place.
I weave nervous system and attachment-based support into everything I do, not in a clinical way, but in a “let’s understand why this feels so hard, so we can make it feel softer” way. When we can make sense of our patterns (our reactions, our child’s reactions, even our partner’s) we create space for compassion, connection, and change.
At the heart of this work is you, the you beneath the roles and responsibilities, the you who deserves steadiness, nourishment, and a place to land.
My hope is that this is where you feel that., a soft remembering of yourself beneath it all.

exhale. you're home.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What types of counselling do you offer?
I offer holistic, attachment-based counselling, drawing from polyvagal theory, somatic experiencing, and internal family systems therapy. I support parents through all stages—from pregnancy and postpartum to toddlerhood, tween years, and beyond. I specialize in helping parents navigate the challenges of parenting, including understanding and responding to their child’s behaviors, emotions, and reactions. Together, we make sense of why your child responds the way they do and find practical strategies to foster connection and reduce power struggles. I also support parents in processing their own experiences that arise during parenthood, including healing from their own childhood experiences. Whether you’re struggling with sleep, behavior, or the emotional weight of parenting, I’m here to help.
Can I bring my baby with me to sessions?
While counselling is most effective when you have space on your own, there are times when that is not feasible, so YES your baby is welcome to come to our sessions. Depending on the age of your babe, it might be easier to choose a walk rather than in office.
Do you work with dads too or both parents together?
Absolutely! While my practice primarily specializes in working with women, particularly mothers, I often work with dads or both parents together. Supporting the entire family system can be an important part of fostering a balanced and regulated home environment. Parenting with shared language and understanding can make a profound difference in your relationship with your children. By learning about the nervous system and attachment, parents can better understand their child’s behaviours, emotional needs, and stress responses. Whether you’re seeking insight into your child’s needs, or ways to create a calmer, more attuned home, I’m here to guide you toward greater clarity and confidence in your parenting journey.
Do you specialize in sleep?
Yes! Sleep struggles are often about safety and separation. I help parents approach sleep with confidence by understanding what’s happening beneath the surface—both for their child and themselves. Together, we build a plan that supports connection while also setting loving, firm boundaries to create a sleep routine that works for your family.
I’m not a parent—can I still work with you?
Absolutely. While I specialize in supporting parents, my work is rooted in connection and alignment. If you’ve found your way to me—whether through a referral or by coming across my work—I trust there’s meaning in that. I believe those who cross my path are meant to, and I’d be honoured to work with you.
Can I use my health benefits to cover counselling?
Yes! As a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), many extended health plans will cover the cost of counselling sessions. Please check with your provider to ensure you're eligible for reimbursement.
Do you offer direct billing?
No, you will need to pay your invoice directly and then submit your receipt to be reimbursed by your health benefits.
Do you support parents with parenting?
Absolutely! As a parent myself, this is an area I’m especially passionate about. I have done deep dives into many different parenting approaches and can help you understand what’s going on for both your child and yourself. Together, we can find practical solutions to increase connection and reduce challenging behaviors. When we understand, we can cope much better.
Do you support mothers struggling with their breastfeeding journey?
Yes! Feeding is about more than just nutrition—it’s about connection, comfort, and feeling secure in your choices. I help mothers navigate the emotional and practical challenges of breastfeeding with compassion, so you can find a path that works for both you and your baby.
Can I use my child’s benefits to see you?
Yes. I specialize in parenting support, and if we’re working together around your child’s emotions, behaviours, feeding, sleep, or your connection with them, you can typically claim our sessions under your child’s benefits. I’m happy to provide a receipt that reflects this for insurance purposes.

ALL ABOUT MEGHAN MARR
Hi, I'm Meghan, a registered clinical counsellor, a yoga teacher, a mom, a wife, and an entrepreneur, but most of all, an advocate for encouraging people to come back into connection with themselves.
With a Master's Degree in Counselling Pyschology, I have spent almost 2 decades as a counsellor specializing in supporting families and women. I love it - to really SEE women, in their darkness, in their pain, in their openness to shift, to rewrite old stories, to DECIDE who they are now and who they want to be…it is such a privilege to witness.
My journey into motherhood was marked by profound losses that hurled me into a vortex of grief and survival stress. As we prepared to embrace parenthood, the health of my mom, dad, and mother-in-law declined rapidly, each succumbing to their illnesses within a span of 18 months. It felt like this chapter of life was determined to break me apart and pull me off the grid. In the midst of this turmoil, I yearned for inner connection and peace—a deeper solace to navigate the complexities of our life circumstances. Alongside counselling, I explored various healing modalities and embarked in a Yoga Teacher Training, desperately seeking balance, ease, and relief from suffering.
Balancing these losses with raising my little ones, especially my highly sensitive (HSP) firstborn, became a monumental challenge. Separating out grief from parenting toddlers/babies and being sleep deprived while also feeling alone and isolated was intense. Add to that parenting an HSP, which looked like BIG feelings, extra long tantrums, sensitivity to many things and an overall more porous little guy – which resulted in a very activated mama. I found I was able to stay calm and present for the first 20 minutes of a tantrum/blow up/big feeling, but then I would become reactive and activated. This prompted me to explore highly sensitive kids (or deeply feeling kids) and how the nervous system works, both in supporting my child but also in supporting myself. Through this exploration, I learned that I, too, was highly sensitive, which not only deepens my understanding of the challenges individuals with heightened sensitivity face but also informs my approach to therapy. Recognizing the nuances of sensitivity, I tailor my methods to create a safe and empathetic space for those who, like me and my son, navigate the world with heightened awareness and responsiveness. Alongside this, understanding and befriending the biological system (nervous system) that runs our daily life has been life-giving. We all have a nervous system, and gaining context around WHY it behaves the way it does builds up so much understanding, compassion and inherent knowledge that our system is working for us, not against us and how, when we can come into relationship WITH our nervous system, we can live a much more easeful life.
Now that my children are in school, I have re-entered the counselling world renewed and from a healed space. I specialize in both motherhood and parenting. Motherhood counselling focuses on you—helping you navigate the joys and challenges of your personal journey, whether it’s managing postpartum mood changes, addressing feelings a of depletion, impacts on your relationship or rediscovering your sense of self. Parenting support centers on your relationship with your child—offering tools to understand their needs and behaviours while helping you create a more regulated, connected home environment. My goal is to meet you where you are, offering support and strategies tailored to your unique experience so you can move forward with confidence and balance. I offer a holistic approach to therapy that integrates somatic awareness, nervous system-informed techniques, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and attachment-based therapy. This combination allows us to explore the mind-body connection, understand the impact of past experiences on our present, and harness the power of our inner self to create positive change. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with BCACC and a Canadian Certified Counsellor with CCPA.
I teach Prenatal Yoga and Mom & Baby Yoga, as I believe that we need additional support, community, and connection at these life stages. I love to bring mama’s together to create that feeling of being seen, of knowing they are not alone and that they have a tribe cheering them on.
I am honoured to work with you, truly see you, and serve as a guide to realizing your true potential and desires. I get to support women from all walks of life and at all life stages. Whether you’re struggling as a mama, or in your relationships, or looking for your purpose outside of motherhood, I’m here for it all.
