Valerie Moran

Life doesn’t come with an instruction manual, and feeling overwhelmed by money, productivity, or the fear of “falling behind” isn’t just in your head. Maybe you’re always trying to do the right thing, but in the process, you’ve lost sight of who you are. These struggles can take a toll on your body, your relationships, and your sense of self-worth.

Whether you’re juggling too much, stuck in a cycle of overthinking, or unsure how to ask for what you need, Valerie creates a safe, non-judgmental space to pause, reflect, and untangle it all. In sessions with Valerie, you’ll find honesty, humour, and the space to show up exactly as you are. Valerie’s warm, down-to-earth style helps you explore the habits, beliefs, and self-talk that no longer serve you—especially around money, which often silently fuels shame and stress. Together, you’ll reconnect with your values, make sense of what's been weighing on you and move forward with greater self-compassion, clarity, and confidence.

Valerie works with individuals who are ready to feel more grounded with their decisions, heal from complicated family dynamics, or finally find strategies that make sense for their ADHD brain. She also has a special interest in supporting athletes, dancers, and creatives navigating high performance, perfectionism, identity shifts, and the pressure to constantly "perform." Having grown up immersed in the world of dance, Valerie understands the unique challenges of striving for excellence in highly demanding environments. Her approach is inclusive, neurodiverse affirming, and culturally sensitive, guided by a trauma-informed, feminist, and anti-racist lens.

Outside the therapy room, Valerie stays active playing softball, weight training, and unwinding with comfort shows like Emily in Paris, Sex & The City, and Bridgerton. She also volunteers her time on the board of a children’s mental health organization, bringing her passion for community care beyond her 1:1 client work. As a third-generation Italian-Irish Canadian, she’s also reconnecting with her roots by brushing up on Italian with Duolingo—slowly but surely!
