About Creative Minds Consulting

One Practice. Many Perspectives. Connected Care.

Creative Minds Consulting is a psychologist-owned, multidisciplinary practice offering assessment, counselling and consultation for children, youth, adults and families in Coquitlam, BC and Medicine Hat, AB.

Our story

Why Creative Minds began

Creative Minds Consulting started as a solo practice with one goal: to make psychological services more accessible, connected and collaborative. Over the years it has grown into a team of psychologists, social workers, registered clinical counsellors and a family coach, with clinics in two provinces.

The practice was built to solve a problem many families know well. They move between clinics, repeat their story at every appointment and try to coordinate care on their own. At Creative Minds, assessment, counselling, consultation and ongoing support work together. With your consent, our professionals talk to each other and build on each other’s work, so the support you receive feels like one plan rather than a collection of appointments.

Carolina Hall is the founder and owner of Creative Minds Consulting and a Registered Psychologist in British Columbia and Alberta, with more than 20 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults and families. She is also a Certified Play Therapy Supervisor.

Carolina did not arrive at this work through a textbook. She started as a behavioural therapist, working directly alongside BCBA-certified analysts with children on the autism spectrum — hands on, in the room, watching how these children moved through the world. That foundation never left her.

Over more than 20 years across British Columbia and Alberta — in schools, in children’s mental health clinics with Alberta Health Services, and in private practice — she keeps returning to the same families: children, teens and adults whose profiles are complex, whose needs do not fit neatly into a single diagnosis, and who have often spent years looking for someone who sees the whole picture.

Her work has two halves that strengthen each other. As an assessor, she looks beyond test scores to understand the whole child or adult — how they learn, regulate emotions, connect with others and experience the world — with particular depth in ADHD, autism, learning disabilities, giftedness and twice-exceptional profiles. As a therapist, she offers evidence-based, trauma-informed care, trained in CBT, DBT, EMDR and play therapy, working with children, teens and adults.

At Creative Minds, assessment and therapy live under one roof — so a family’s findings never sit in a report on a shelf. They become part of a coordinated plan, carried forward by a team she personally supervises.

Carolina’s why

Understanding changes things

“Every individual deserves to feel understood, supported and valued for who they are. My work is about looking beyond labels and behaviours to understand the person behind them. Some of the most meaningful moments in this work are when someone feels understood, sometimes for the first time. That understanding changes things: for the person, for their family and for the people who support them.”

— Carolina Hall, Registered Psychologist

Our approach

How we work

  • The whole person

    We look at history, emotions, relationships, environment and strengths, not just symptoms.

  • The "why", not just a label

    Our assessments explain what is behind the struggle and give practical next steps for home, school and work.

  • Tailored, not one-size-fits-all

    We integrate CBT, DBT, play-based and trauma-informed approaches to fit the person, rather than fitting the person to one model.

  • Neuroaffirming

    We celebrate neurodiversity and support people to thrive as themselves.

  • Connected care

    With consent, our team shares insights so families do not have to start over.
