Hello, my name is Bronwyn.
You’ve taken an important step by visiting my profile. Are you struggling to connect with a counsellor or open up to loved ones?

What sets me apart is my deep understanding of the emotional toll that relationship struggles, divorce, parenting challenges, grief and loss, abandonment, emotional abuse, and feeling unheard can take on a person.

We can use a variety of therapeutic strategies - talking, reflecting, sharing, writing, art therapy, mindfulness, self-care.
Life is full of stressors and challenges. It can be a struggle getting through each hour of each day. As a consequence, we can experience depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, feeling stuck, or feeling not quite right. We may struggle to adapt to a new situation - loss of a loved one, job loss, overwhelmed by work or study, separation, a new diagnosis, a medical event such as cancer or a heart attack. You don' t need to struggle alone. Adjustment and change are possible. Reaching out can be scary. Better now, than later or never. We all need expert support at times. It's ok, to not be ok. An impartial, supportive ear is available.

I integrate a range of cognitive therapies with mindfulness practices & art therapies while also considering the impact of societal & family systems.
Navigating the world as a neurodivergent individual can be incredibly challenging, especially without adequate support. Autistic and ADHD individuals, LGBTQIA+ folks, and trauma survivors often face unique hurdles and higher rates of trauma and PTSD than the neurotypical population. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and dealing with sensory differences, executive functioning difficulties, and the pressures of masking can make it even tougher.

Art Therapy Counsellors
How does art therapy work?
The process of making art allows people to express themselves. Art-making can take many forms, such as painting, collage, or sculpting. The therapist asks questions that the work elicits, such as how the person felt while creating their piece, or if any memories surfaced that they can discuss. The therapist will then work with the patient to process their experience, understand themselves better, and work toward change.
Does art therapy help with trauma?
Art therapy can be a valuable treatment option for those suffering from trauma. Traumatic experiences such as combat, rape, or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. The physical nature of creating art can also help people feel rooted in the body, which may benefit those who feel disconnected from their body in the aftermath of trauma.
How long does art therapy last?
The duration of art therapy varies, but a common length for treatment is 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Some people may see improvement in just a few weeks, while others may choose to remain in therapy longer term. Patients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
What are the limitations of art therapy?
Art therapy is helpful for many people, but a limitation is that it doesn’t have as robust an evidence base as other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. The evidence on art therapy is mixed; some research demonstrates its benefits, while other research suggests that it has little impact on patients.
