Caitlin views counselling as a collaborative journey of support, growth, and transformation. She believes in the inherent resilience of all human beings and the innate capacity human beings possess to heal and overcome adversity. She supports children, youth, adults, and families to heal from traumatic experiences, process grief and loss, reduce mental health/psychiatric distress, work on childhood and family of origin issues, and explore relational challenges of abandonment/neglect. She is honoured to serve the Sea to Sky community seeing clients in-person at her office in Squamish.

I have been supporting children & youth, and their families for the past 17 years in public education. I facilitate workshops and also do group counselling. I have a strong background in special education, which means I often observe the behaviour(s) of children and youth, collaborate with them and their families, and implement/teach tools for alleviating a child's stress. I have experience as a clinician for Adult Mental Health & Addictions in both inpatient and outpatient care from the hospital. This has benefited early recognition and prevention.

Life can be overwhelming. And you don't have to go through this alone. Seeking support is one of the most courageous things you can do, and I am so proud of you for starting your search. My office is a space where you can show up exactly as you are and know that your identity will be celebrated and affirmed, your boundaries will be respected and your humanity will be seen, felt and held. Co-creating a safe space where you can openly explore thoughts emotions and experiences is how we will begin. Providing creative, personalized care that is unique to who you are, and where you are at is always my priority.

I'm really glad you're here. Over the past 30 years I've supported a wide variety of people on their healing journey.

I have also supported people who live differently-abled lives, including those living on the autism spectrum and with Downs Syndrome.

Our goal is to equip you with the tools and self-knowledge to manage emotions, overcome anxiety and depression, achieve your goals and see the world in a new perspective. We work with you to inspire confidence, peace of mind and, ultimately, lifelong resilience.

Change is inevitable, though rarely comfortable. We have the ability to be incredibly adaptive beings, but it can be so difficult. I believe we can improve our capacity to manage life's challenges through increased awareness of our relationships with and reactions to change. Counselling can help uncover the conditions for healing and help you learn how to create or maintain these conditions in your life. I specialize in helping individuals and families recover from the impacts of trauma, including grief, anger, anxiety, isolation, chronic pain or physical illness, relational conflict, and more.

I have been in private counselling practice for 15 years, and in wellness, personal development and the media for 25 years. My practice draws self-referring, high-functioning adults/couples with addiction, phobia, anxiety, depression and attachment disorders affecting their lives beyond their historical, current or perceived ability of self-control. In couples, I usually begin individually to create safety and self-awareness, then back together towards clear self-advocacy, expression and to build trustful communication. EMDR in the couple context can clear a lot of old trauma and wounded pattern-associations that mire us in destructive relational dynamics.

I believe we all go through struggles and experiences in life where we may need extra support to rise above. I provide an empathetic and holistic approach to building trust and open communication within our counselling relationship. I am also open-minded and am culturally inclusive.

My name is Jane Mai Ngo (she/her) and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and Certified Child Life Specialist (CCLS). I work with people seeking a stronger sense of purpose, increased self-esteem, self-acceptance, and clarity in their lives.

I can share with you that even before my training as a social worker, I knew working with children, young people, and families of all designs, brought me joy. Whether this joy came from my early days as a camp counsellor, as a recreation support worker, or from my paid social work employment in supporting families, or working with young people struggling with substance use, or in supporting young people in their challenges with autism, my practice focus has always been in working alongside others to feel less alone, to feel heard, to feel seen.
