Wellness Matters Counselling
Counsellor, RTC
In fact, anxiety,
depression
, feeling stuck and overwhelmed are symptoms that we can learn from, to transform into ease, clarity and harmony.
Like many people, I reached a point in my life where I was seeing myself repeatedly make choices that had the same negative responses. I went through divorce, over functioned when it came to others and did not know how to do my own self care. I reached out for support and through therapeutic counselling was able to heal. When looking at my own life challenges, I discovered how my adverse experiences in childhood have influenced my life’s course. Now more than ever we are faced with a lot of different stressors. My passion is to help others navigate through those stressors.

My foundation of therapy is a biopsychosocial-spiritual model, viewing human beings as whole persons of four aspects: physical, psychological, social, and spiritual. Therefore, I am able to see the whole picture on how a brain injury, physical illness, physical trauma, or substance abuse affects human emotions, cognition, behavior, and spirituality, or vice versa. My approach utilizes Cognitive Rehabilitation therapy (CRT), Rogerian therapy, Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT), and Narrative therapy in order to help my clients toward problem solving and having a new hope for a new life.

I am not currently accepting new clients directly. However, my student intern is accepting new clients at a reduced rate of $40+GST per session. Do you feel frustrated, sad, lonely or
depressed
much of the time? Or, do you feel numb and unable to connect with yourself and your emotions? You are not alone. Many people feel overcome by powerful emotions and struggle to manage them on a daily basis; others, have created a system in which they cut themselves off from their feelings and they experience numbness.

Erica Magdalena Schmid
Counsellor, MACP, BA, RCC
Verified
In my practice, EMDR therapy has helped many clients of all ages move beyond stress, anxiety, grief, or
depression
towards greater confidence, self-esteem, authenticity, and passion.
Often my clients are wanting to explore a personal issue/problem/feeling that won't go away and is starting to affect almost every part of their life. Advice from friends or family isn't helping and nothing else they have tried has worked. They believe there must be a better way to be but somehow they are just stuck. I can help you tackle your issues, get unstuck, and find that better place. Both personally and professionally, I can attest to the power of awareness as a key factor in facilitating a desired change; We can’t find the truth listening to our own voice’s echo. We can find ourselves only in someone’s mirror”(Rumi, n.d)

Depression Counsellors
Depressive disorders are characterized by persistent feelings of sadness and worthlessness and a lack of desire to engage in formerly pleasurable activities. Depression is not a passing blue mood, which almost everyone experiences from time to time, but a complex mind/body illness that interferes with everyday functioning. It not only darkens one's outlook, it is commonly marked by sleep problems and changes in energy levels and appetite. It alters the structure and function of nerve cells so that it disrupts the way the brain processes information and interprets experience.
Despite feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness, depression is a treatable condition. It can be treated with psychotherapy by depression counsellors in Langley. As with many illnesses, the earlier treatment begins, the more effective it can be and the greater the likelihood that recurrence can be prevented.
Psychotherapy addresses the thinking patterns that precipitate depression, and studies show that it prevents recurrence. Drug therapy is often helpful in relieving symptoms, such as severe anxiety, so that people can engage in meaningful psychotherapy.
