Hi! I’m Kayla Chorley, Your Canadian Certified Counsellor & Edmonton Counselling Therapist

Being a young adult can be a whirlwind, can’t it? You’re navigating the challenges of university or college, starting a new career, establishing relationships, and managing big emotions. Whether it’s the stress of academics, the pressure of starting a new job, or the challenges of moving out for the first time, I understand what you’re going through.

As a certified counsellor with years of experience, I’ve helped many young adults like you navigate these challenges. I’m here to provide a safe and supportive space where you can express yourself freely and learn effective strategies to manage your emotions and challenges.
