Find a Therapist in Murrayville, British Columbia.

What is involved in psychotherapy? Good question. First, it is crucial to find a counsellor that you really connect with -- that you feel heard and seen by them, there's no judgement, and you actually LIKE your therapist as a person, not just as a therapist. When you trust your counsellor with your story, great things can happen! You can work on issues that you know about, uncover issues you didn't realize were issues, and feel changes within you (your self-talk, interactions with others, outlook on life, etc.). It's ALL about you and what your need for self-growth. Where else can you get that?!

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.

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.

Psychotherapy is otherwise known as talk therapy. I use this interactive approach of talk therapy (psychotherapy) as a supportive framework and also a constructive way to help people deal with the problems in their lives. We set goals, which are talked about and discussed in therapy with the use of techniques, so that solutions are identified and people know what to do and how to navigate the difficult issues in their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) , Family Therapy, Behavioral Therapy and Interpersonal Therapy are specific approaches in psychotherapy used to support and assist clients to meet their goals.

I am here to assist you in a kind and compassionate way to address your psychological issues such as depression, anxiety, emotion management, fears, grief issues, marital discord, pre-marital compatibility issues, stress management, difficult decision making, and with anything you may want the assistance of a seasoned and highly effective Registered Psychologist.

The experiential work in AEDP has deeply moved me. This therapeutic framework beautifully blends attachment theory and the attunement of the therapist and client to process together towards transformative experiences that are healing. This is dyadic work where the client and therapist create a connection that allows clients to go to deep places of emotional brokenness and begin to make repairs and make new meanings allowing clients to become unstuck and begin to feel relief.

Psychotherapy can be beneficial for everyone. Whether you would like to further self-exploration, break old patterns keeping you from reaching your full potential, work through past trauma, gain more clarity on a specific issue, or repair ruptures in your relationship, psychotherapy can help you reach your goals. Psychotherapy can provide a safe and supportive environment while giving you the tools and psychoeducation to create sustainable change.

In my practice of psychotherapy, clients can anticipate a compassionate, client-centered approach that values their unique experiences and perspectives. 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.

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)

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 psychotherapy or counselling involves building a strong therapeutic relationship. My counselling style is person-centered while also using a systems approach to gain clarity on not only the client but the bigger picture. I support my clients with a variety of different modalities such as CBT, DBT, EFT, and solution-focused therapy (just to name a few). If you have more questions about my counselling style, I would love to answer them.

Exploring your past and present experiences with a compassionate professional can provide a safe atmosphere for intrapersonal exploration, allowing you to understand yourself better. When we understand ourselves, our relationships and habits become clearer, leading to new possibilities for the future. Self-awareness brings increased satisfaction in relationships with self and others, as well as enhancing our ability to make confident decisions and move toward our goals.

In Psychotherapy, a deeper dive into your past to understand why you may feel. Think and act in a certain way that is not helpful to you. There will be lots of investigation into early childhood, beliefs, and assumptions made that no longer serve you. There will be a link between early environment and learning, how you coped, and how that may play out in your life in the present in how you think, feel, and act. This incorporates a blend of many counseling models. My most frequent question will be, " What happened to you?"

I come to the practice of counselling with a passion for wellness and transformative, life-long learning. I work in the public setting as a clinical counsellor in a local primary care network, support a local arts organization as executive director, and teach Clinical Counselling at the post-secondary level. I am particularly interested in post-modern and integral approaches to working with neurodiversity, couples, and the transition to full practitioner.

Fundamental to the work is a good therapeutic relationship. That is, we have the collaboration and trust to combine your knowledge of yourself and your situation and my skills and knowledge of the clinical issues to make change happen. With established trust and rapport between us, we can develop a structureless structure for our treatment plan. That is, one flexible enough to give space to deal with thoughts and feelings spontaneously each week, and structured enough to accomplish your goals.

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.

I bring 16 years of experience to better help clients come to their own solutions to the struggles they face. Each client is unique, and needs a unique approach to their marriage, family or individual issues. To this end, I use an integrative, collaborative and effective approach using well researched approaches to better help clients achieve the results they want. The benefits that I can offer clients is helping you achieve more peace and happiness in your marriage, family or self. You may learn more effective ways to communicate and relate to people around you. By working together we can find the answers you seek. Contact me today to get the life you want.

Clients who receive psychotherapy from me will learn about the root of their issues and how to heal these wounds. Many issues we face in life are deep rooted in our childhood or resulting from traumas we have survived and need to be addressed to be truly free and achieve peace and serenity. I will help you learn to live a vital, rich meaningful life and overcome any mental health issues.

Psychotherapy or counselling is helpful to address whatever issues you may be facing in your life in a supportive, non-judgemental environment. At West Coast Counselling, we use your goals as a framework from which to build therapy around. We may use cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative or solution-focused therapy, to name a few, in which to help you manage your issues.

My practice centers on providing a safe and supportive environment where individuals can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. With a person-centered approach, I collaborate with clients to identify and address a wide range of concerns, from anxiety and depression to relationship issues and life transitions. By drawing from evidence-based therapeutic modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness techniques, I help clients develop self-awareness and coping skills. My commitment to confidentiality, empathy, and active listening fosters a trusting therapeutic relationship, empowering individuals to navigate life's challenges.

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.

When I think of the hundreds of women/men I have assisted in making changes and in healing, they have been creative, intelligent, capable people who usually did not know these things about themselves because their pain story kept them from seeing this. You might think this could not be you because you believe no one would describe you in this way, but pain has a way of blinding us to the truth of our good points. And you do have good points, many more than you believe right now. Therapy is a means to help you discover what they are. It can help you find your strengths, what is incredible about the way you have been made and give you a place to be heard, supported and guided as you heal.

Psychotherapy is a deeper subset of counselling, that works to discover and identify longstanding patterns and themes by which an individual views the world and their life. We all have a sense of how the world works, but rarely do people shift their awareness to a particular theme and explored how it impacts their life. In doing so, one is able to explore new ways of interpreting their past, present experiences, and future choices.
