Amy Kelly, BHSC, MACP, RCC
Registered Clinical Counselor
201-576 England Avenue, Courtenay, British Columbia V9M 3V7 | 250-650-9222
My psychotherapeutic approach incorporates MCBT, attachment theory and narrative theory. My approach is holistic, not only addressing the psychological diagnosis or presenting problem, but the contributing elements and systems in place that continue to reinforce. For instance a woman with postpartum depression might need the support of a postpartum doula so she can rest or have a hot meal, the connection of a group, before she can begin to feel her mood lift to do the work she needs to feel better.

Available for Online Therapy
I offer a multidisciplinary and relational approach to psychotherapy that includes early attachment work and a sensitivity to intergenerational dynamics and trauma, with a holistic orientation and evidence-based techniques. The role of the body in healing is central to my work, as I draw on many somatic practices. I also work with the arts as a healing modality. On the part of my clients, no experience in the arts is necessary. Whichever therapeutic modality we choose as best suited to your current journey, we work with the fundamental creative drive that is present in all of us to encounter the many facets of your healing pilgrimage necessary for growth and lasting change.

Psychotherapy can be a powerful tool to help you grow in self-awareness, notice patterns in your life and help you heal. Just like when you watch a chess game from the outside, you can notice things about the game in a way that you cannot see when you are in a game, in the same way, psychotherapy can be extremely helpful in helping you to see yourself with more clarity and that clarity will result in a more fulfilled, intentional life.

My approach to therapy is inspired by the teachings of Carl Rogers, who believed that the most effective way to help individuals was through a warm, empathetic, and understanding relationship. I create a safe space for my clients to be open, honest, and vulnerable, allowing them to work through their challenges and find their own answers within themselves. I use a holistic and integrative approach, drawing from a range of therapies, including eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), ego states theory, somatic approaches, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, resonance and more.

Psychotherapy or talk therapy can be a helpful way to address problems and create meaningful change in your life. Utilizing a number of therapeutic models I hope to provide an empathetic and non-judgemental experience to explore "problems". Sessions are typically one hour and can be a safe and confidential space to share concerns, worries, fears, hopes, and needs. We will collaborate on goals for our work together. Therapeutic approaches include: Response-Based Practice, Attachment Theory, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, CBT, and Systemic Family Therapy.
