Life Celebrant & Counsellor
A Secular Ministry
Everyone deserves the opportunity to share the most significant moments of their lives with community and family, whether or not they practice a formal religion. That’s where I come in. I am a licensed wedding officiant in the province of Ontario, and I am a designated minister who approaches funerals, celebrations of life, weddings, commitment ceremonies, christenings, and baby naming ceremonies, from an open-minded, client-focused perspective. I provide support and conduct ceremonies for life's important moments without religious elements, though I am also happy to serve religious and interfaith clients as well. My focus is on inclusivity and honouring diverse beliefs and backgrounds.
“Having Catherine as our officiant was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. She was so gentle, calming, professional & eloquent. She made our ceremony one of the best highlights of the day! We can't thank her enough.”

Counselling & Coaching
I'm a counselling secular minister, reflective writing coach, relationship coach, and certified grief counsellor. I work with people and create space for processing emotion, managing anxiety, strengthening relationships, and moving through life’s big moments with grace and compassion.
In-person and remote options
I have office space available throughout the Niagara Region. If you’re more comfortable with online sessions, Zoom options are available for all of my services. Care is taken to ensure intimacy and privacy for all sessions, whether online or in person.
