My experience with Hilary has been an incredibly positive introspective about myself. I learned how my past experiences and traumas have shaped my decision-making behaviors in my current relationships. Hilary has a great way of helping me understand where and why my behavioral patterns stem from, but also how to move forward and free myself from feeling "stuck". I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to travel to Nova Scotia for a few in-person sessions, in addition to the online ones. It was so lovely to meet and connect face-to-face. We also went for a delicious dinner together :) Thank you Hilary for opening up my mind and heart!

It was a privilege to work with Hilary for six months via Zoom.
Her welcoming smile, an empathetic listener with honest feedback and guidance.

Respectful and skillful with both Grief and Trauma.

Never did I feel judged, felt safe in sharing my story.


Hilary accepted me where I was at and changed direction accordingly, if necessary. 

A lady with sincere compassion and passionate about helping other’s with Grief and Trauma

I first met Hilary on a zoom chat that I participated in close to my first Christmas without my husband. I then started seeing her one on one, I believe the following April. I cannot say enough positive things about Hilary and her program. She is very professional, but down to earth, relatable, supportive, kind and empathic (to name a few). Hilary is very easy to talk and provides a safe environment to feel comfortable opening up and sharing your feelings, beliefs, horrors and the worst life changing events. She made me realize what grief and loss really were and tools to help me travel through this life long journey. Thank you Hilary for everything and making me feel heard, validated and supportive during the most difficult time of my life.

They say raising a child takes a village. On the flip side, grieving the loss of a loved one also does. Please don’t do it by yourself, reach out & ask for help.

A friend referred me to Hilary- a grief counsellor. In my heart, I did not believe I needed a grief counsellor, but I was so wrong. I needed to heal the loss, many losses. I urge anyone dealing with grief in the broadest sense of the word, to work through the process with Hilary. Do the reading and the homework; you will gain insights and tools for a lifetime of healing. Hilary provides a safe, supportive space for healing your losses. I am grateful for Hilary’s guidance.

The Healing the Loss Program changed my life, allowing me to release the yoke of a lifetime of grief and loss. Hilary’s compassion, support and insights from lived experience were instrumental in my recovery. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Hilary for helping me navigate my grief and release the tremendous burden of past trauma from my life.

"I struggled with Anxiety for over a year after my Dad passed away. I had no idea it was because of grief from this loss. Hilary carefully helped me work through this program to find all the reasons why I was suffering. She understands what you are going through from her own experiences, and makes you feel like you are not the only person that has ever felt this way. Grief is an individual journey, however, we shouldn't travel in it's valleys alone. I can think of no better person to guide you through this experience we all eventually share. Thank you Hilary! You are a true blessing :)"

"I am so grateful to Hilary and her Healing The Loss program. She helped me understand why my grieving felt so incomplete and why my suffering had continued for more than a decade. She guided me as I filled in the blanks and I have come out the other side feeling much more whole. Thanks Hilary."

"I found Hillary through a friend at a very low point in my life. I suffered the loss of relationships. As well as daily struggles with anxiety and some depression. Through Hilary's guidance and sound common sense advice, the relationships have improved exponentially.

My life has a new sense of calm surrounding it. 

My only regret is I wish I had found her sooner. 

There is a sense of relief knowing that Hilary is literally a phone call away if I need her.

I still have lots to work on. But with Hilary’s guidance and advice I am not as worried about the future and able to live more in the present."

“Hilary is the real deal! Healing the loss only works if you work at it, and Hilary is the "go to" with the "know how" to support you through your own challenges. She described herself as a "heart with ears, and said she was simply going to listen with an open heart", but there is nothing SIMPLE about it. Hilary is compassionate, understanding, non-judgmental and most importantly supportive. I am taking away with a new story, a story of my own success, a story that I am enough, a story that I can hold my head up high and tell, not the way I arrived - feeling defeated, frustrated, alone and sad. Hilary allowed me to take baby steps in the beginning, when I needed a little extra TLC, but when the work got hard, she was my support, encouraging me that each step was a step forward and reminding me of how far we had come, and that we would do it together. She was my backbone when I felt like a jellyfish. What I learned, if you are struggling, chances are it is not the current issue, that is simply the straw that is breaking the camel's back, you need to uncover, discover, and let go of the pains that got you to today in order to create a better tomorrow. I am grateful for our time together; I step ahead with new confidence and courage. I know that Hilary is just a call, email or message away if I need a reminder. THANK YOU for supporting the healing I needed to be ME!”

“At our very first session together Hilary was confident enough to guarantee my success and she was 100% right.

Hilary is an engaging person who is totally genuine and trustworthy. She creates an atmosphere of safety and trust which allowed me to make personal reflections with complete honesty.

The results do not come without putting in some hours and believe me, the time is well spent.

I can say without doubt that Hilary Scott was always tuned in, always caring and is the best counselor that I have ever spoken with.”
