Kaitlyn Hillier

Kaitlyn Hillier’s practice is rooted in a sustained engagement with the emotional terrain that many people find hardest to name — anxiety, self-worth, grief, intimacy, and the ways identity and desire shape a person’s inner life. A Canadian Certified Counsellor based in London, Ontario, she brings that same depth to workplace stress, caregiver exhaustion, anger, and the boundary conflicts that quietly erode relationships over time. She works with men and women individually, and her sessions are available online.

Her theoretical grounding in psychodynamic thinking and feminist theory shapes how she listens: she is interested in what lies beneath the surface, and she actively resists reinforcing social norms that cause harm. Kaitlyn is committed to anti-oppressive, non-judgmental care, and she has substantial experience supporting people in the 2SLGBTQIAA++ community, including those navigating non-normative sexual lifestyles, kink, and polyamory — areas in which she has pursued dedicated training. She recognizes that tension around intimacy can surface in unexpected places, including in the everyday friction when a partner’s attention drifts to a phone during moments meant for connection.

Empowerment, individuality, and sex and body positivity are not afterthoughts in her practice — they are central to it. Kaitlyn’s work prioritizes what actually feels meaningful to each person over what simply looks acceptable from the outside.
