Idanicole Hearder

My name is IdaNicole, and I am a Master Practitioner of Clinical Counseling (MPCC) , a mother to two adults, and a grandmother to three young children. I hold registration with both the CPCA and ACTA as a Clinical Counselor, Psychotherapist, and Registered Professional Counselor.

My personal experiences have instilled in me a strong desire to support others in areas that I found difficult to access when I needed. These include being a single to both a neurotypical and neurodiverse child, sexual abuse trauma, and exploring my own mental, physical, sexual identity.

I began my career working in pre- and postnatal outreach, parenting, as well as anxiety and couples relationship counseling. I observed how an individual’s relationship with sex and sexuality often provides valuable insights into other aspects of their lives. Since this is one of the most intimate and private aspects of human experience, it can deeply influence every part of our lives, whether within or outside a relationship.

In supporting my clients, I employ a variety of approaches and modalities tailored specifically to each individual’s needs. These include CBT, Sensate Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, among others.
