Quiet Strength Counselling

Kelly is an amazing therapist. She hears what you say even when you have troubles with the words, she is beautifully up beat and radiates positive energy. My own journey of grief and regret of things past has been extremely enlightening and she has been there every step of the way with her words of encouragement.Thank you Kelly for all you do :)

Kelly has been a great therapist. She has guided me in a caring and comprehensive way through my self-aware journey. I usually leave a session with Kelly feeling stronger, and mindful of my capacity to overcome challenges. She is very professional and understanding. Her approach is always appropriate and useful.

Kelly has been a wonderful counsellor to work with. She has contributed tremendously to my personal understanding of what counselling looks like, and what works best for me. By listening to my concerns and the goals I have for counselling, she is able to nurture a safe environment for me to share whilst providing effective and tangible strategies to challenges that I need help addressing. Her empathy and willingness to go beyond is what sets her apart from other counsellors. Thank you Kelly!

I saw Kelly Ding as my counsellor for a while and she was extremely understanding and helpful during our sessions. I always felt comfortable opening up to her and felt that she offered thoughtful advice and really cared for my wellbeing. I'd recommend her as a counsellor to anyone.

I found Kelly by the grace of a google search. Frustrated with years of counselling that covered the bare minimum I decided to try a DBT group. Through that group (online) I valued the intentionality, large knowledge base, lived experience and compassion that Kelly brought to every session. I am constantly challenged and encouraged and have seen personal growth in areas I didn’t know possible. Kelly adds so much to therapy such as worksheets, exercises, fidget toys, and skills - but the best part is I can see the genuine desire to see me be well.If you have never tried DBT, do it. And if you’re looking for a counsellor that pushes you, but cheers for you the whole way, and packs you the best tools - see Kelly!

Kelly was so wonderful, she challenged me in many ways. She really helped me with any issues I had at the time and never made me think my problems were insignificant, no matter how big or small. I'm really thankful I was able to meet someone like Kelly!

I have been with Kelly for about 2 years now and I love our sessions! She is such a great listener, super empathetic, and knowledgeable both in counselling and Biblical scripture. Thank-you for all that you do. ❤️

I’ve tried a handful of therapists the past few years, and when I finally met Kelly I knew I found the person who could truly help me on my journey. Kelly helped me tremendously with the loss of my best friend, among other challenges I faced.While I am not regularly seeing Kelly at this time (that’s a good thing!) I will continue to use Kelly’s services as needed in life. Thank you Kelly!!!

Kelly was an excellent counsellor for me, especially as I struggled with trauma from my childhood/past experiences. She helped me make sense of what I was feeling and feel more secure in my emotions, and I learned how to be less judgemental of myself. I highly recommend Kelly especially if you are someone of Asian-Canadian background, as you may find that it is difficult to find someone who understands your unique experience as an often overlooked minority.

Although it was online, I really felt Kelly's kindness and patience throughout each session. She provided me with so many different strategies and helpful guidance for my mental health, and I really felt safe. I couldn't be grateful enough!
