Meet Pascale - The Heart behind Tide & Grove
Hello, and thank you for taking the time to be here.
My name is Pascale (she/her), and I’m a counsellor based in Onoway, Alberta. I offer in-person and virtual counselling across Canada. Tide & Grove grew from a desire to create a space that feels steady, thoughtful and respectful of the complexities people carry into counselling.
I hold a deep respect for the non-linear nature of inner work. Experiences, emotions and patterns often unfold in layers, seasons and rhythms that don’t follow a straight line. I’m drawn to counselling because I believe in the value of being accompanied through moments that can feel confusing, heavy, quiet or unresolved; without pressure to arrive somewhere specific.
I cherish glimmers: moments of awareness, being witnessed or feeling understood. These moments don’t erase what’s difficult, but they can create space for reflection and understanding to emerge alongside it.
My work is informed by a strong interest in how lived experience is held not only in thought, but also in the body: through sensation, emotion, breath and the nervous system. I practice from a client-centred, trauma-informed lens, with the understanding that each person is the expert of their own experience. My role is not to direct or define, but to offer reflection and curiosity within a collaborative therapeutic relationship.
My approach is relational and multi-modal, drawing from somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems, Relational Life Therapy (RTL), the Gottman Method, Person-Centred Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Rational Therapy. These approaches are integrated thoughtfully and guided by what feels most supportive and appropriate for each individual or couple.
Thank you for spending time here and for considering whether Tide & Grove might be a place that feels right for you. I approach this work with care and gratitude, and I look forward to connecting and seeing where our paths may meet.
