Hi! My name is Vanessa, and I am a Registered Psychologist in Medicine Hat, Alberta. I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among clients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. Therapy is a healing process, ultimately, making small changes and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results. I love working to help clients see the best within themselves and helping them through life's most difficult moments.

Bear Creek Counselling & Psychology offers a safe environment to help people acquire the skill, resilience, and insight to thrive.

I am passionate about supporting and empowering children, adolescents, parents and families in overcoming obstacles and discovering their full potential. I work from a collaborative framework, and believe that counselling works best when client and therapist are working together to address concerns and reach goals. I have built my practice around strengths-based, integrative modalities including play therapy, expressive arts, sandplay, Polyvagal theory, CBT, somatic and mindfulness based practices.

Life is difficult. We all face challenges that leave us feeling sad, angry, overwhelmed and at times, stuck. Feelings change our behaviours and soon we find ourselves snapping, hating our jobs, drinking, and not eating or sleeping, among other symptoms. Suddenly we barely recognize ourselves. If you have ever told yourself that this is not the person you want to be, you are not alone. Seeking professional help is the first step in making positive change. If you are consumed by anger, hurt, worry, grief, suicidal thoughts, or using self-harm or poor coping to control pain, I can help.

I work with children ages 3 and up, teens, and adults for individual therapy specializing in play therapy techniques, sand tray, and animal assisted therapy. Areas include: Anxiety, ADHD, Attachment/Early Childhood Trauma, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Behavioural Concerns, Cognitive Disabilities, Depression, Developmental Delays, Divorce/ Separation, Emotional Regulation, Family Conflict / Violence, Grief and Loss, Infertility, Life Transitions, Parenting Support, Self-esteem/Self-Compassion, Suicidal Ideation, and Trauma. I also offer psychoeducational and ADHD assessments for children ages 4-17.

I have a great love for people and an overwhelming compassion and empathy for those who are impacted by grief and loss. I have a strong interest in working with those struggling with various addictions, mental health concerns, grief and loss, and faith issues. I counsel from a client-centred, trauma-informed, strengths-based approach, using motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, and narrative therapy modalities.

I will be working with adults, mandated clients, youth, and families. Whether your presenting concern is Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, Emotional dysregulation, Behavioral instability-addictions, disordered eating, avoidant or impulsive, Relationship conflict, Self-perception, I am confident that working together, you will progress into your authentic self. I recognize in therapy one size does not fit all; therefore, I will adapt my therapeutic interventions to fir to your personality, needs, and preferences.

Are you a little different? Queer or Trans? ADHDer? Autistic spouse? Survivor of Religious Trauma? Maybe you have a specific set of unique personalities in your family. Maybe you have a bunch of labels but what you really want to talk about is being lonely. Maybe you've never found someone who really acknowledged that thinking your way through your problems doesn't work. Your problems don't fit in a neat little category, and you don't have a nice little summary of who you are, where you came from, and what is ailing you. Guess what? That's exactly how therapy starts: with the best pieces of you all tangled up with fear and shame.
