How it Began

Hi my name is Rochelle Kaikai and I am the founder of Rooted Thistle Counselling. RTC was born shortly after my second son was welcomed into the world. My journey into motherhood was not an easy one. So many of the beautiful moments were followed by anxiety and feelings of inadequacy. The duality of motherhood became very apparent to me and is something I continue to notice each day. This journey has taught me so much and made me realize just how important it is to have support.

​

When I created the concept of RTC, I knew I wanted it to be a safe place for parents to land; a place free of judgment where you can explore the different parts of yourself. You can rest assured that each team member of RTC shares this passion and wants to support you, no matter what stage you are in.
