Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical to be effective.

If you’re new here, hi! If not, welcome back. Thank you for being here.

This is hey lemon, where counselling is relational and anchored in warmth, curiosity, and real connection. Counselling is meant to leave you feeling a little more grounded, a little more clear, and much less alone in the process.

AUTHENTIC CLINICAL COUNSELLING

IN KELOWNA, BC

Clinical Counselling that leads with the relationship, not just ‘treatment’.

Welcome to our world of warm chats that feel like catching up with a good friend, but it’s intentionally different. There’s noticing, and commenting on what’s noticed. There’s invitation to be curious about yourself. There’s support and comfort in the ambivalence until you’re sure of you. There’s a willingness to get it wrong. There’s freedom for you to roam your own mind, body, spirit until you find the words that capture your story.

Counsellors here have a Master’s Degree, a license to practice counselling in British Columbia, and are completely invested in your story. Dive into a cozy and supportive space where every session is a step towards feeling lighter, brighter, and better.

Meet Sarah.

Hey, I’m Sarah. I built hey lemon on an idea that counselling is meant to help you meet your lemons. If there’s something you’re struggling with, you deserve to feel less alone with it.

It’s important to me that the care you receive is professional, ethical, and evidence-based. It’s equally important that the space is thoughtful, human, and nonjudgmental. So, counsellors here are trauma-informed Registered Clinical Counsellors with Masters degrees and engage in continuing education to ensure you’re well taken care of.

  • Exciting! Fill out any of the contact forms and we will reach out for your complimentary 15-min consult.

  • People often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure where to start. Our role is to offer a calm, thoughtful space where you don’t have to hold everything on your own.

    Therapy is a lot of “being understood” for the first time. But perhaps you already feel understood, even exhausted by it. Now you want to feel connected. Distress isn’t always personal or pathological, sometimes it’s a signal that something is misaligned or even inequitable. hey lemon is an invitation for therapy to be a practice, check-ins within yourself and outside of yourself, like a secret handshake.

    Clients often say they leave sessions feeling more settled, clearer, and less alone. Therapy here isn’t about fixing you, or “treating” you (whatever that means), it’s about helping you feel more connected to yourself and better supported as you navigate life.

  • Perinatal counselling is counselling that is specifically tailored for folks in the ‘perinatal’ season of their life, which spans the entire timeline from thinking about having a child, trying to conceive, pregnancy, labour/delivery, and up to two years postpartum. Perinatal mental health also includes infertility, pregnancy loss, abortion, and neonatal loss.

    Sarah has training in perinatal mental health and specializes in the care for folks during this season. Moms, dads, parents alike.

  • Our temporary office is:

    • #204, 3001 Tutt Street, Kelowna BC

    Find the lobby on the right side of the building, head up to the second floor. #204 is down the hall. Please wait in the waiting room in a black chair and we’ll come find you!

  • Counselling with hey lemon is for the big things, small things, and everything in between. It’s also intended to be proactive and preventative, like ‘going to the gym’ for your emotional wellbeing.

    Counselling is your space to focusd on yourself with a co-pilot of sorts! It’s not just about getting validated all the time (ok, it’s partly that), it’s also exploratory, curious, expansive, and challenging. You’ll get called out (gently)!

    Counselling is not an emergency service. If you are in crisis, please phone your local crisis line (1-888-353-2273) or 911 for medical attention.

  • hey lemon is not able to direct-bill your insurance company at this time. However, as RCC’s, our services may qualify for reimbursement depending on your insurance coverage. Double-check this with your employer!

    Sliding scale options are limited but are available for folks without insurance and depending on need.

  • Probably! :) But it might not be that obvious.
