Find a Therapist in Kelowna, British Columbia.

I will help you explore your dynamics, and how your interaction with the world creates your experience. Understanding is the first step in affecting, and as such, we will also create concrete strategies to address the changes you would like to see in yourself, your feelings, and your behaviours. I believe in a phenomenolgical approach to psychotherapy, and I respect the unique backgrounds and perspectives that every client brings to their exploration of self.

Psychotherapy with me will offer you a secure non-judgmental relationship to grow in your goals. Together we will explore what is bringing you into therapy and with compassion and curiousity notice what comes up for you when you seek to make change. As we explore what comes up, we will use tools to get to the roots of those blocks and discover deeper part of you that can provide you with that felt sense of relief and new found energy.

I integrate contemporary neuroscience with time-tested therapeutic wisdom to create a transformative healing experience unique to your needs. You will benefit from a holistic approach that honours the inseparable connection between mind, body and relationships. We explore deeper patterns and unresolved experiences that may be limiting your well-being, while developing practical tools for immediate relief. This deeper healing enhances your ability to navigate challenges with greater ease, experience more authentic connections with others, and access an expanded sense of possibility and joy in everyday life.

In therapy with me, you’re stepping into a space where you don’t have to perform or hold anything together. We explore the raw, unfiltered parts of your story—the hurts, hopes, questions, and contradictions—trusting that they all carry wisdom worth hearing. I guide you to reflect deeply on your patterns and choices, helping you make thoughtful changes that align with your values. Clients often leave feeling more centered, more compassionate toward themselves, and more intentional in how they live, equipped to move through life with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Psychotherapy helps clients understand their thoughts and associated feelings. Understanding and identifying issues in our thought processes can reveal what is making us feel anxious, depressed, or a variety of other unwanted feelings. Talking helps clients cope with stressful situations in a safe and manageable way. Anyone who is overwhelmed by their problems and unable to cope can benefit from psychotherapy. Counsellors will help clients learn to identify distressing emotions, express feelings appropriately, and modify their approach to those around them. Overall, the improved levels of confidence provides the means to navigate life challenges in a healthier way.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

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. 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. I offer EMDR and other trauma processing approaches to support you in your healing when appropriate.

I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) which is researched to be the best therapy for dealing with trauma when it is combined with cognitive therapy. There are big T traumas like accidents, rapes, etc. and small t traumas from childhood abuse (physical and emotional abuse). You will learn how your early childhood traumas are affecting your ability to have healthy current relationships.

My approach to psychotherapy is person-centered and collaborative, focusing on each client’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals. I integrate insights from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and psychodynamic and attachment perspectives to understand how past experiences shape present patterns. I am also influenced by existential philosophy, which emphasizes authenticity, freedom, and responsibility in shaping one’s life. In addition, I draw on René Girard’s theory of imitation (mimesis) to explore how social pressures and comparisons can influence identity, relationships, and personal goals.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

Individual emotional, behaviours and social issues can both result from distress in relationships and precipitate distress. Support in addressing individual problems can have a signifiacant positive impact on overall relationship functioning. The fact that relationships are one of our primary coping mechanisms multiplies the potential distress when individual problems are present as it impacts the very mechanisms we use to cope.

Psychotherapy can be effective and greatly beneficial for couples, individuals and families. We strive to create a safe and understanding environment where we work in a collaborative manor based on your goals and needs. We will work with a variety of techniques tailored to your specific needs providing optimal results. Through psychotherapy you can begin to see yourself and your world through a non partial and neutral lens. Through the clarity and acceptance of your authentic self we will work to build your tools for ongoing personal growth and success, independent of counselling.

I am truly an integrative counsellor. What this means is that I am more concerned with what you personally need as an individual, couple, or family, than I am about following a particular counselling theory. I will utilize whatever I believe will benefit you the most from each of them. I will come alongside you, and work together with you to help you gain insight into why you are struggling, address your key concerns, and incorporate the changes and skills you need so you can truly "heal from the inside out". This will effect positive change in your life and relationships, and help you grow in awareness, compassion, understanding, respect, empathy and acceptance toward yourself and others.

Annette is a psychotherapist with 25 yrs. experience assessing and counselling adults, youth and families. Annette will work with you to co-create realistic, practical and meaningful change you want to see. She will also provide a safe, warm and caring environment to explore and resolve your concerns. Some of the ways that counselling can be helpful...when someone sees you more clearly and reflects what they see, then you grow to see yourself more clearly. When someone helps you identify ways you keep yourself unintentially stuck, you are more free to change your patterns. Finally, when someone supports you with care and skill, you find the courage to take new steps.
