Alignment Counselling

Alignment Counselling Alignment Counselling serves Duncan BC and the Cowichan Valley by offering registered counselling in person and online.

Main specialties in neurodivergence, burnout, chronic conditions, and trauma. Hi, I'm Kate Bonnell, owner of Alignment Counselling. I'm a Canadian certified counsellor, and have my masters degree in counselling psychology. I work in person out of Purely Wellness in Duncan, as well as online. I am passionate about helping people find change through empowerment, whether that's overcoming trauma, learning to accept themselves, or working through troubles in a relationship. My therapy style is firmly rooted in self-compassion, and trauma informed. I work with adults with a variety of topics including: anxiety, ADHD, Autism (especially late discovered), trauma, depression, coping with chronic illness, couples counselling, developing coping skills, and anything else to do with understanding yourself. Book a session or a free consult today if you'd like to connect.

Join My Neurodivergent Adults Series!

Do you prefer the ease of logging in from home for workshops, or do you enjoy the personal touch of being in the same room? Beginning in September, you’ll have double the opportunity to participate in my series for neurodivergent adults.

Each month, we will:
- Explore how a specific topic intersects with the lives of adults with ADHD or autism
- Discuss the challenges faced while normalizing these experiences
- Introduce practical tools for you to implement
- Create a supportive neurospicy environment that is both educational and relaxed

Don’t miss out on this chance to connect and learn! Email me to learn more kate@alignmentcounselling.com

Whether the autumn is easier or harder for you than the summer, change is hard for everybody. Allow yourself time to adjust to the difference in demands, times, and sunlight as we move into the last quarter of the year.

I don't know about you, but I associate September with new beginnings, being warm and cozy, and of course anxiety. Kicking off a new school year meant learning the styles of new teachers, getting used to different classmates, figuring out the layout at university... all stressful things that threw my nervous system into high alert. I find even now, I feel more on edge around September. This is our reminder to slow down, enjoy the leaves as they start changing, and be patient with ourselves if we feel like there's a shift in our capacity we can't quite put a finger on.

People ask me why they feel like they are coping WORSE instead of better after learning about their ADHD or autism as adults... when you've spent your life masking, it feels very raw to face the world as your authentic self. It's common to go through grief, anger, and fatigue after discovering you've been living life on hard mode and never knew it.
