My approach is rooted in creating a collaborative and empathetic space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I believe in the power of a therapeutic relationship built on trust and respect, serving as a foundation for the transformative process of self-discovery and healing. Drawing from various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic, and Humanistic approaches, I tailor my methods to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual. By fostering a non-judgmental environment, I aim to empower clients to openly express themselves and work towards understanding the underlying factors influencing their behaviours.

Throughout my life and educational career, I have learned the benefits of understanding how our brain and body develop and impact each other. The brain is like any other body part - when injured or not functioning properly, it requires proper attention and care to heal and strengthen it back to a higher functioning state. It is with this knowledge that we can begin to understand ourselves and our own reactions more. My goal is to help you find a path towards self-compassion and a clearer sense of self, while also working together to seek out alternative solutions to create a healthier mindset.

Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to take a step back from your life and reflect on what matters to you. It used to be thought that if you need a "shrink" i.e. head shrinker, there's something wrong with you! These days, we know that the demands of our fast paced lives can get us down and we may not be aware of the reasons. We may be too close to our own issues. In psychotherapy, we can slow down and have help to examine what comes up in the context of our difficulties. Our bodies and emotions register reactions that we may not understand. Psychotherapy can help open a space to let new realities unfold through honouring small reactions that can be understood in the larger context.

As a Gestalt therapist, I help individuals to work toward their wholeness and to be able to meet their particular needs. I believe every individual is unique. Therefore, while Gestalt therapy is my main approach, I draw from other approaches based on individual needs and I help them toward their recovery with the most appropriate techniques. Some of the other approaches I am using include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Human Centered Approach, Emotion Focused Therapy, Internal Family System, and OEI. Having experience with clients from diverse backgrounds, holding multicultural perspectives, and using techniques from various modalities, I am confident I can better help you in your healing.

While my approach is tailored to each client's needs, I predominantly use CBT with a neurobiological lens as my main approach in psychotherapy. I aim to help individuals identify the interconnection between their thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and environment. Evidence-based therapies such as CBT have shown to be effective in reducing symptoms of depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, anger management, OCD, personality disorders, and ADHD.

I believe in creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors openly. Through collaborative dialogue and evidence-based techniques drawn from various modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches, clients gain insight into their challenges and develop practical strategies for growth and change.

I strongly believe that psychotherapy is an art. This is the reason I integrate different approaches and modalities when working with clients based on their goals and their current situation. In other words, I use my years of training and my clinical experience to make sure what we do is helpful to you. I have done training in approaches that focus on thoughts and cognitions such as CBT, approaches that are more emotionally focused such as AEDP and approaches that are more body focused such as SP. This helps us to give equal attention to all parts of your experience such as your feelings, your thoughts and your body. You will feel more integrated and whole as a result.

Many clients come to me with only having had talk therapy. They tell me that with their previous counsellor they just discussed their challenges and never really got anywhere. I personally believe that the difference lies in the distinction between the terms "counselling" and "therapy." In my opinion, counselling involves talking and gently exploring issues, whereas therapy involves teaching new concepts, applying specific tools and approaches, and making tailored plans. Clients brainstorm with me, apply new ideas at home, challenge themselves, and develop new insights and skills. This is how I work and what I offer, and my clients notice the difference in their daily lives.

The circumstances and issues that you are dealing with are unique to you, but you don't have to face them alone. Every individual has different experiences, perceptions, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes, cultural backgrounds and "upbringings". Counselling sessions are private and confidential, and can provide a way for you to explore your problems and really tune in to your feelings. This is an opportunity to speak freely about your circumstances and release pent up feelings, without having to worry about what others think or feel, and without receiving unwanted advise from family, friends or coworkers. At the root of the problem, there are very real, legitimate and understandable reasons for feeling the way you feel, thinking the way...(view profile to read more)

Dr. Rochefort's areas of expertise in psychotherapy include trauma, violence, personality disorder, treatment of offending behaviours, eating disorders, stress, depression, and anxiety, to name a few.

Given the widespread adaptability of CBT, I am able to work with individuals from diverse cultures and backgrounds. CBT can be utilized to remedy various mental health concerns including, but not limited to the following: depression; anxiety; trauma; relationship concerns; personality disorders; grief; life transitions; & self-worth. Treatment goals are collaboratively selected based upon the individuals’ unique needs, background, experiences & strengths. Namely, unhelpful thoughts, behaviours & feelings can be substituted for more adaptive ones. Though you are the expert on your life, I can offer a nonjudgmental place to better understand yourself; therefore, allowing for personal growth.

In psychotherapy, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences to gain deeper self-understanding. Using evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual, I help clients identify unhelpful patterns, develop coping strategies, and work through personal challenges. Clients benefit by increasing self-awareness, improving emotional regulation, and building resilience. This process fosters personal growth, healthier relationships, and a greater sense of balance and well-being in everyday life.

My qualifications include a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. My trauma-informed theoretical framework is anchored in Internal Family Systems (IFS), while integrating the attachment principles and relational lens of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Both of these methodologies are evidence-based practices that have been demonstrated to be effective with a variety of situations and symptoms. I recognize that each individual has a unique set of circumstances and perspectives, so with this in mind, I will work collaboratively with you to determine your strengths, needs, areas of growth, and go

The potential benefits of engaging in psychotherapy with me include increasing your emotional intelligence, a renewed sense of connection, increased skills for coping, a larger sense of security and trust as it relates to others with whom you are in relationship, an increased self-trust, increased self-awareness, and a greater sense of resilience when faced with challenges and stress. I use my compassion, empathy, and genuineness to reach out as my goal is to interact on an authentic emotional level with you.

Psychotherapy with me is client centered. This means that I look at you as someone who is the expert in your own life. My role is to come alongside you, to reflect some of what I hear you say, and offer insights that can point you back toward solutions that you inherently know to be true. Sometime we just need to process our thoughts and emotions verbally in a way that points us toward the next right thing.

It is my hope that through the process of exploring personal and relationship issues, clients will develop a greater self-awareness and understanding of their potential and capabilities. Clients will identify any limiting beliefs and thought patterns that may have blocked them from attaining goals in their personal relationships and/or professional lives. Clients will also address and work on any unhealed past experiences of emotional and/or physical trauma that may be negatively affecting their lives today. Clients will benefit from building effective communication skills to promote healthy relationships. It is my hope that clients will develop a loving acceptance of Self.

Psychotherapy encompasses many different approaches to helping people heal. EMDR, body-based strategies, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), meditation, hypnotherapy and other modalities are part of the change process. Building the therapeutic alliance is essential, however, to ensure the client feels safe and secure within the counselling environment. Acceptance, counsellor-client alignment and unconditional positive regard are essential.
