About Atypical Counselling

Looking for a compassionate and effective counselor who goes beyond the traditional approach? Shawna Swanson's person-centered and trauma-informed services at Atypical Counselling are here to help. We provide a safe and welcoming space for members of the LGBTQ+ community, neurodivergent brains, youth, children, families, and anyone struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, and more. Our approach is tailored to your unique needs and experiences, with a focus on empathy, respect, and understanding.

Shawna has 3 years of experience and is trained in evidence-based techniques that are proven to help with a wide range of mental health concerns, including ADHD, ASD, PTSD, FASD, and other cognitive, behavioural, and physical differences. Shawna is an RPC (Registered Professional Counsellor) with the CPCA (Canadian Professional Counsellor Association) #4369. This means many insurances cover Atypical Counselling, but for those who do not, we offer a sliding fee scale. No one gets turned away from receiving help!

Whether you're dealing with the aftermath of trauma or simply looking for outside-the-box help, Atypical Counselling is here to support you every step of the way. We believe that everyone deserves access to compassionate and effective mental health care. Contact us today!
