Chloe Hull, MACP, RP

Something is off — and you’ve known it for a while. On the outside, you’re managing. You show up, you achieve, you hold it together for the people around you. But underneath that, there’s a quiet ache: a sense of disconnection from yourself, a relentless inner critic that nothing you do ever quite silences, or a pattern in your relationships that keeps repeating no matter how hard you try to change it.

If any of that resonates, you’re in the right place. I’m Chloe Hull, a Registered Psychotherapist in Burlington, Ontario. I work with emerging adults and high-functioning individuals — often in their late teens, 20s, and early 30s — using attachment-based, parts work therapy to help people understand where their patterns come from and build relationships that feel secure and real. I see clients in person in Burlington and virtually across Ontario.

Who I Work Best With

I work primarily with emerging adults and high-functioning individuals — often in their late teens, 20s, and early 30s — who are beginning to recognize that patterns from childhood are shaping their adult lives in ways they’re ready to understand and change.

You might be the person who has always been the capable one — the helper, the peacekeeper, the one who holds it all together for everyone else. On the outside, your life looks fine. But inside, there’s a quiet longing to feel more like yourself. To stop shrinking. To understand why connection feels so hard, even when you desperately want it.

Many of the people I work with grew up with emotionally immature parents: parents who may have been present, even loving, but who couldn’t consistently attune to their children’s emotional world. If that was your experience, you may have learned early on that your needs were too much — or simply not noticed at all. You became very good at being fine. And now you’re exhausted by it.

Maybe you grew up in a home where your emotional needs were not named, seen, or tended to. Not because your parents were cruel — but because they simply didn’t have the tools. And you learned, very early, to make yourself smaller. To take care of others instead. To earn love rather than trust it was simply there.

That’s what we work on together.

You might be in the right place if:

• You’re a high achiever who privately feels like a fraud (imposter syndrome is always present)
• Perfectionism drives you, but it never brings peace — only temporary relief before the bar moves again
• You put other people’s needs before your own, then quietly resent it
• Your relationships feel anxious or unpredictable — you’re either holding on too tight or pulling back to protect yourself
• You find it hard to know what you actually want, feel, or need — separate from what others expect of you
• You’ve spent years trying to understand yourself, and yet something still feels stuck
• You grew up in a home where love was present but emotional attunement was not

My Work and Areas of Interest

My approach is relational, experiential, and parts-based. Through inner child work and Internal Family Systems (IFS) — informed therapy, we work to understand the different parts of you that developed as protective strategies in childhood — and to give those parts what they always needed but never received.

My training has been focused around providing psychotherapy through trauma-informed and attachment-based lenses. I am deeply passionate about supporting those who identify as people-pleasers and who struggle with boundaries and codependency in their relationships. My goal is to help individuals identify and explore the attachment-based wounds they have experienced throughout their life and to empower them to be able to make conscious, adaptive choices in their relationships moving forward. Part of this work may include helping you get in touch with your inner child and exploring what needs may have gone unnoticed and unmet in your childhood. Essentially, I aim to provide a safe and supportive place for you and all the unique parts of yourself to show up, in addition to providing you with helpful tools for you to work towards providing yourself with the love, support and compassion you may have been lacking in your earlier life experiences. 

I draw from attachment-based therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and mindfulness-based approaches. For material that lives in the body — the tightening in your chest when a conversation goes a certain way, the sudden overwhelm that doesn’t quite make sense — Brainspotting is a particularly powerful tool for processing what talk therapy alone can’t always reach.

I am also a Clinical Certified Trauma Professional (CCTP) and have training in sensorimotor techniques including 4 blinks, which is a flash technique that supports individuals with difficult memories and intrusive thoughts and/or flashbacks. Additionally, I incorporate parts work when working with trauma by helping individuals to explore and recognize the parts of themselves that may have been rejected or neglected, and to repair missing experiences in their life.

I believe healing happens not only through insight, but through new relational experiences — moments in the therapeutic relationship where something genuinely different occurs: where you are met, witnessed, and not found to be too much. This is sometimes called a corrective emotional experience, and it is at the heart of the work I do.

A little bit about me

I am a life-long resident of Burlington. When I was 14 years old, I went through some difficult life changes, and I ended up trying therapy for the first time to try to seek some support. The concept of talking through a problem with an unbiased professional and how comforting and healing that could be really blew my teenage mind! People in my life were encouraging and said that I had a natural ‘knack’ for listening and supporting. The goal of becoming a mental health care provider resonated with me in such a special way that this profession has been my main career goal ever since.

While completing my master’s in counselling psychology, I also volunteered and worked in different areas of mental health services. I have worked with the Reach Out Centre for Kids in Halton as a youth mentor for youths in need and helped them develop healthy social skills and self-esteem. I also have experience in providing one-on-one counselling and mentoring for at-risk, young women in crisis situations. I have supported them in finding necessary resources in the community and in developing critical thinking and positive social skills to improve their ability to make healthy and productive choices.

Feeling ready to reach out?

Every person that I have met during my time working in mental health care has one thing in common: they know their life can be better, but they’ve reached a point where all the ways they’ve been trying to cope on their own are just not working as well anymore. That’s where seeing a psychotherapist can help.

I believe healing happens not just through insight and understanding, but through new relational experiences — moments in the therapeutic relationship itself where something different occurs. Where you are met, seen, and accompanied in a way that begins to repair what was missing. This is what’s sometimes called a corrective emotional experience, and it is at the heart of the work I do.

It takes great courage to take the first step in seeking support. My role is to walk alongside you in your journey towards wellness, offering gentle guidance, support and empathy. It would be an honour to help you uncover the strength and resilience you have always had within you, but maybe have not recognized.
