Professional Certifications and Licenses
I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) with the Association of Cooperative Counselling Therapists of Canada (ACCT). I am a graduate of the University of Victoria from which I received a BSc. with a double major in Psychology and Linguistics. I began my career as a graduate of Clearmind International Institute from which I received a diploma in Transpersonal Counselling. Since then I have become a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional from which I have membership with the International Association of Trauma Professionals.
Services Offered
I work with clients who are struggling with grief, depression, anxiety and symptoms of trauma. I counsel from a combination of perspectives that include Clinical Trauma, Somatic Experiencing, Narrative Exposure Therapy, Cognitive Restructuring, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Family Systems Theory, Transpersonal, Person Centered, and Gestalt orientations. I draw on the appropriate specialized skills necessary to stabilize and navigate my client successfully through treatment. Depending on your situation, we may examine patterns in your life that you may feel are not effective, look at the beliefs that drive them, and explore new options. We may also employ trauma therapy techniques as part of your treatment plan. This entails working with your nervous system to help release pain, sensations and emotions resulting from trauma, accidents, or injuries that cause illness and prevent injury.
During counselling strong emotions and feelings can arise. To overcome your personal problems you may have to draw on courage and persistence. You are not alone in this journey, we will work side by side.
