Therapists for Teens in Creston, BC

Do you feel like you're caught in the same cycles that aren't getting you anywhere, have negative beliefs about yourself that are keeping you stuck, or feel like you're constantly stressed or anxious and running on E? Clients who come to counselling may want to take control of their racing mind, calm their nervous system, establish self-care and wellness routines, better understand themselves/patterns in their life, learn self-compassion, or are just looking for a safe space where their feelings & lived experiences are honoured. I have 8 years of experience working with clients in various supportive capacities.

I value connecting with people in meaningful ways. In my practice, I strive to inspire and empower people to create the life they want to live, find purpose and meaning in their life, discover their authentic self, gain a deeper understanding of themselves, and achieve personal growth and positive change. I value neurodivergence and I am passionate about working with individuals with diverse abilities and learning styles. I work from a strength based perspective and I support individuals through the process of change by providing a safe, accepting, and non-judgmental experience.

Life can be very challenging at times and ensuring you have the support you need to make it through the ups and downs is important. I am passionate about building connections with and providing support to, individuals and families who have experienced complex trauma, relationship challenges, self-esteem challenges, gender transitions, and grief. I take a collaborative and integrated approach to help clients find healing and symptom reduction. In addition to my private practice you can find me at the Fernie Women’s Resource Centre providing free counselling services 2 days a week.

How do you choose a counsellor when there are so many choices ? I say go with your gut! I come from a perspective that building a trusting realtionship with my clients is the most effective way to aid that person in working through their stuggles, gain new perspectives, discover strengths they already have, and develop new tools to address the issues they came to a counsellor for.

Clients come to counselling with an issue that is causing them to feel stuck. In our session, we will work together to discover the internal impacts of the issues or story that has brought you to counselling. We will resolve how your past experiences are impacting you in the present, transform your relationship with parts of yourself that are out of balance and discover ways to meet any needs in your life that are currently unmet. I focus on health and possibilities and I hold the hope that change is always possible.

My specialties include chronic pain and illness, grief and loss, body image and identity, life transitions, pet loss, anxiety and depression, and relationship issues.

We all experience pain, joy, suffering, and growth in our lives, and a lot of it happens in relationships. I believe that the counselling relationship can be very powerful in giving us opportunities to experience healing and growth. As a counsellor, I aim to provide you with acceptance, support, and understanding in order to help you work toward better mental health and well-being.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, families, parents, and couples.

Hi, I’m Kate. I help individuals, couples and families to grow, make improvements and overcome challenges in their lives. Getting support can help deepen your understanding of yourself and others in your life. Together we will explore parts of your inner self or relationship, noticing areas that assist you as well as ones that you may want to update or leave behind. I strive to create a space that is warm, genuine and encouraging. I am here to listen, help you reflect, and at times, challenge you to grow. I want your time with me to be effective and I aim to have you leave each session with a new thought, perspective or tool.

My clientele includes men dealing with mid life career challenges, martial stressors, and/or family strife issues. My older clients (and their spouse or partner) often discuss age and health issues. I explore emotional respite especially when clients are caring for a partner with dementia or special needs children. Many clinic based clients are women in mid life and are dealing with issues like stressed marriage/ or negative interactions with their teens and/or pre teen children. I have wide expertise in treatment of Anxiety and Depression as stand alone mood disorders or as collateral to many other problems.

Your child is amazing. You just want the best for them. If you're exploring the idea of therapy, it's likely that your child is currently encountering some difficulties. There's nothing more heart-wrenching than witnessing your child face challenges. Sometimes, you can pinpoint the underlying issue, but in other instances, it remains a complete mystery. Art therapists are trained in both art and psychology, and have knowledge about the psychological role of the creative process and the impact of using different art materials and techniques for helping uncover issues, build healthy coping mechanisms, and support healing and growth.

Past experiences can shape your life but they don’t have to. I can offer you the support you need to let the past go and move forward in a meaningful way. Discover how to let go of anxiety, depression, resentment and stress. Find new ways to be in relationships that are healthy and align with the life that you envision for yourself. Our sessions will guide you toward healing and achieving fundamental transformation. Heal the painful experiences that create present-day issues and evolve into the person you truly wish to be.

Do you feel stuck, anxious, or like you are living in "survival" mode? Feel like you are crumbling on the inside, trying to hold it all together with work, your family, and/or in your relationship. Maybe you are desiring a change but cannot seem to make it happen. Or you are experiencing a challenging relationship or struggling to regulate difficult emotions such as worry, anger, or sadness. I help adults and youth overcome stress, anxiety, or disconnection so that they can do more of what they love and deepen their relationships with the people that matter the most.
