Why families choose Creative Minds
Understanding changes things
Too many families bounce between clinics, retell their story at every appointment and coordinate care on their own. Creative Minds Consulting was built to change that. Assessment, counselling and consultation work together here, and with your consent our psychologists, social workers, counsellors and family coach share what they learn so you do not have to start over.
Assessment and therapy together. The team that assesses can also support, so recommendations turn into real next steps.
Beyond labels and test scores. We look at the whole person and explain what is driving the struggle, not just what to call it.
Neuroaffirming and strengths-based. We celebrate neurodiversity and work with the way each person's mind works.
No referral needed. Book directly, with evening and weekend appointments available.
Funding know-how. BC Autism Funding, Alberta FSCD, Child and Family Services, and direct billing to major insurers in Alberta.

Meet the founder
Psychologist-led care in BC and Alberta
Creative Minds Consulting was founded by Carolina Hall, a Registered Psychologist in British Columbia and Alberta and a Certified Play Therapy Supervisor with more than 20 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults and families. What started as a solo practice has grown into a multidisciplinary team in two provinces, still guided by the same belief: every person deserves to feel understood, supported and valued for who they are.
