Together, we can process your thoughts, feelings and experiences, and equip you with new perspective and concrete strategies so you feel empowered to make meaningful, lasting changes in your life.

With over a decade of experience, Ainslie provides a safe, nonjudgmental space for clients to receive support with a variety of concerns including life transitions, stress and anxiety, depression, identity shifts, difficult relationships, perinatal/postpartum mood concerns, parenting, trauma, and grief and loss.

Ainslie’s approach is warm and collaborative, and she works from a trauma-informed, feminist lens. She believes that a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust and acceptance is the foundation for successful therapy outcomes. Ainslie uses evidence-based approaches tailored to meet individual client needs, and has specialized training in DBT, CBT, Attachment, ACT and Mindfulness-based approaches. She also has in-depth training in infant, maternal, and perinatal mental health.

Ainslie is an honours graduate of Concordia University’s Creative Arts Therapies program, as well as a Certified Canadian Counsellor and Art Therapist.

In her personal life, Ainslie is a mom to two silly, wonderful kids who make her a better person and a better therapist. In her solo time, she loves to get out for a bike ride, read, and support her local roller derby scene.
