A Bit About Me

Hello and a warm welcome to you! My name is Alyssa (she/her), and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (#20364) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. I am passionate about supporting individuals of all backgrounds through life's challenges. I specialize in working with both adults and adolescents, providing support in areas such as anxiety, depression/mood concerns, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, stress management, self-esteem, and identity exploration. 

 

My therapeutic approach is person-centred and grounded in curiosity and compassion. My goal is to support clients to learn how to challenge negative thought patterns, cultivate mindfulness and acceptance, develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their connection with others, and manage the physical sensations associated with emotional distress. To do this, I utilize various modalities, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Somatic Therapy (MBST), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Attachment-Based Therapy (ABT). I draw from my experience working in private and public therapeutic work, as well as my own lived experiences of loss, challenge and growth.

​

Reaching out for support can be daunting, but I am here to help you identify the strengths and resources needed to overcome your concerns. A life of greater ease, balance and fulfillment is possible. If you have any further questions about who I am or what to expect from working together, please feel free to book a consultation with me. I look forward to supporting you on your journey of healing and greater well-being.
