Attachment-based Therapists in British Columbia

Andrea has worked in the mental health field for close to a decade. She is passionate about helping others through difficult situations by supporting them in processing their experiences and building resilience. The individuals Andrea supports often experience overwhelming anxiety, deep sadness, loneliness, relationship issues, and trauma. Andrea helps clients feel less alone in their experiences, more capable at managing difficult emotions, and a deeply felt sense of internal strength in the face of hardship.

I see psychotherapy as a chance to come back to yourself. When faced with challenges in life we can forget our strengths, values, and sense of self. Psychotherapy offers the chance to rediscover these things and uncover more. Together we can navigate life’s challenges while building new skills and resilience to create a stronger sense of self. The therapy space that we create together is one where you can discuss anything and explore emotions, experiences, thoughts, and behaviours in a space and relationship that is safe, supportive, and dedicated to your well-being.

In my work as a Registered Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor, I work to create a space that is thoughtful, warm and connected. Together we’ll dig deep to explore underlying thoughts, feelings and behaviours to better learn what’s going on, where you might be getting stuck and pathways to move forward. I aim to help you live with a greater sense of authenticity, ease and meaning. I bring a relational, trauma-informed and attachment-based lens to my work.

Feeling disconnected? Perhaps you're struggling to exist in a society that doesn't feel like its accepting of you? I specialize in working with clients who often feel they diverge from societal norms. I have special interest in working with clients who may describe themselves as belonging to these groups: Neurodiverse, LGBTQIA+, Ethically Non-Monogamous, Kinky, and/or those involved in non-traditional family/relationship dynamics. If this is you, now that you are not alone! My experience may not be the same as yours, but through collaboration, we can work together to help find the best treatment methods for your unique situation.

Sometimes we need support navigating the complexities of life. As individuals, we experience these complexities in unique ways, often feeling alone. You may be navigating grief, anxiety, anger, fear, trauma, relational concerns, transitions, self-worth or feeling overwhelmed. My goal is to cultivate a trusting, accepting relationship that holds space for your unique story, a space where you can feel seen, accepted, supported, and valued.

I enjoy working with people, both children, youth and adults. If you are feeling stress, distress or having difficulties managing a relationship in your life, family issues or conflicts or a loss, I would be happy to help you find that peace and calm that can bring you back to feeling joy and hope in your life. In my experience people often have the answers and the resources within themselves that they discover through counselling. I have extensive experience with mental health and addiction and the families, and autism, couples, and families and would love to work with you in finding the help you are looking for.

So many individuals, couples, and families are living with the impacts of chronic stress and uncertainty: heightened anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, interpersonal conflict, exhaustion, and feelings of hopelessness and despair. When we are in “survival mode,” it feels nearly impossible to imagine alternatives, let alone find the energy, support, and resources needed to effect change. But with support, we can practice working with our challenges, repairing relationships after moments of crisis and conflict, and accessing our inner wisdom, strength, and resilience.

Counselling is a unique experience. It is intimate, vulnerable and requires courage. There are infinite reasons that someone may seek counselling or therapy. Let’s face it, being human can be hard! Counselling can be effective for folks struggling to balance life with routines, relationships and responsibilities. Some people experience severe symptoms that impact their physical, mental, social and spiritual health. A safe therapeutic relationship can offer you an opportunity to access your wisdom and allow your authentic emotional and spiritual self to emerge, heal and expand.

Accepting New Clients / Available for supervision (not practicum students). Book directly via my "Online Booking System" located below under "Website". People today are making their mental health a priority. When someone reaches out for counselling, it's usually because of a problem they want to work through, something they hope to change, or an area of their life they desire to grow and develop. Counselling is very much a collaborative process. I see my role as creating a therapeutic environment that feels comfortable & safe so clients can explore their lives more fully and come to a greater understanding of who they are.

If you struggle with anxiety, emotional dysregulation, self-esteem, unhelpful thinking, setting boundaries and are looking for meaning in life I can help. I have been a registered social worker since 2005 and have been counselling folks with moderate to severe mental health as well as substance use since 2017. I work with people where they are at and help to cope with both what is happening in their life now and look at how their history may still have an impact on how they function today. I work with adults and youth both on line and in person.

I invite you to take a deep breath. Sometimes, Life can feel all too much. You may be feeling like you cannot continue living like you are, feeling dark, heavy, anxious, disconnected from, or lost in your feelings. I support youth, young adults, and adults with understanding their relationship to self and others through a holistic lens. This means we work together to process unfelt feelings, to be curious about persistent nagging thoughts and patterns, and to be present to how this all expresses itself in and through your body. I am passionate about showing you that getting help can be a safe, insightful, and healing endeavour.

We all struggle at times. Whether it is a low mood that lingers too long, or anxiety that inhibits your life. Feeling like a failure, a bad parent, or like you just do not feel at home in your skin can start to feel like it poisons everything. Confidence dwindles, emotions feel too unpredictable, or stress seems to get under your skin more than it used to. You may be finding that your close relationships are more stressful than they used to be. Life may feel like it’s getting smaller and smaller. You know something has to change. It is time to reach out for help.

One of the many joys I experience working as a therapist is helping people to connect to their inner strengths, resources, resilience, and courage. I bring to my practice 20 years of experience supporting children, teens, adults, elders, and families through some of life’s most difficult hardships, transitions, and losses. I specialize in grief and loss, trauma counselling, and the often-accompanying issues of anxiety, depression, and addiction. I enjoy working with kids and teens and helping them feel safe and capable as we discover creative avenues of expression for their often complex and profound emotions and ideas.
