Katherine – Registered Clinical Counsellor

“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.”
― Carl Gustav Jung

As children we are born with every potential and capability within us. However, during our lives, we can go through experiences that wound us and if our nervous systems were not able to fully process what happened at the time, we can suffer from painful triggers that continue to affect us in our present day lives.

With a Master of Counselling degree and training in EMDR therapy, I assist clients to reduce the painful symptoms associated with unresolved trauma. I work with clients to develop the skills they need to access the power within themselves to heal. I am passionate about helping others move toward the life they want to live by using empirically based, trauma informed approaches. Some of the modalities I offer include: Person Centered Therapy to help individuals feels safe and cared for in the counselling room, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to deconstruct disabling beliefs, Inner Family Systems Therapy for deeper self exploration, as well as an array of other methods that help individuals connect to the parts of themselves they may be disconnected from due to trauma.
