Therapists in T1V

I specialize in providing Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), which helps individuals become aware of negative thought patterns and behaviours. This approach helps to increase feelings of confidence, and positive thinking. CBT paired with Mindfulness allows for clients to become aquatinted with their thoughts, and moods, while simultaneously developing a new relationship with them. This approach can benefit those who suffer form depression, anxiety, other mood disorders, anger issues or anyone who desires to have a stronger sense of happiness in their daily life. The approach can be modified for all ages and cognitive abilities.

Hello, my name is Eunice! As a Registered Provisional Psychologist, I am here to support you on your journey of personal growth, self-discovery, and healing. I understand that navigating this journey can be challenging, overwhelming, and isolating. I am here to meet you where you are at, and support you every step of the way.

Over the past ten years I have worked in various psychological environments including secure mental health facilities, hospitals, schools, and private practice settings. My personal experiences with debilitating anxiety, depression, and ADHD over the years ultimately led to my decision to become a clinical psychologist. Experiencing these conditions first hand and personally utilizing their various treatment methods, adds an additional layer of expertise and understanding that surpasses what can be learned from a textbook or classroom setting.

Life can be tough, even at the best of times, and we can all use a little help! I am passionate about supporting children, teens and their parents create better connections, increase communication, build coping skills and of course bringing back the fun to the family. Along with my work with families, I also support individuals on their journey of self discovery, whether it is by examining their values, relationship patterns or gaining perspective.

Many of us feel stressed and overwhelmed by the complex situations we face in our lives. Some of these situations might include communication challenges, work stress, marriage issues, complex relationships, difficulties in parenting, financial strain, life decisions, health issues, and grief or bereavement. I have been helping people with these types of challenges for over 30 years in both the public sector and in my private practice. I am passionate about helping you rebuild your relationships and find solutions for the challenges you are facing. I provide a safe and warm environment where every part of who you are is welcome.

I work with children, youth, and adults offering varied counselling approaches based on the needs of my clients. My client's want to tell their story and be listened to with compassion and effective individualized counselling strategies by a professional mental health counsellor. I use the process of self-exploration, self-understanding, and self-initiative. Youth and children need engaged art and/or play therapy approaches to explore and express their thoughts and feelings. I have certifications in EFT (tapping) and kundalini yoga, which focuses on easing anxiety, depression, trauma and additions for children, teens, and adults.

Life circumstances can leave us feeling overwhelmed, often stuck, and struggling to make sense of things. I help you to understand and identify these thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I offer a safe confidential space where together we can work through these areas of your life moving towards an understanding and acceptance of what has taken place, allowing for healing, change and possibilities. I believe in the uniqueness of each individual offering Integrative Counselling tailoring sessions to your own needs.

I believe mental health is just as important as physical health and believe passionately that when people have someone to listen, they can uncover and understand themselves exponentially. I believe in coming alongside individuals in a compassionate and nonjudgmental way so they feel safe and comfortable sharing their experiences. I believe our past plays an important role in how we navigate situations in the present and work to uncover core beliefs and how they affect our behaviour. I support individuals and couples as well as provide parent support for those raising neurodiverse children, such as Autism, ADHD, PDA, Anxiety & FASD.

Welcome to Sunburst Counselling. What is trauma? Trauma is linked to a memory of an event that sticks within your mind and body. It can result from falling off of a bike, a car accident, sexual assault, other forms of abuse, critical workplace incidents or anything at all that happens to you that was out of your control. Unresolved trauma can result in anxiety, depression, stress, PTSD, C-PTSD or chronic pain, all of which can greatly impact your ability to function. When you lose your ability to function, you may experience a decrease in self-esteem, self-worth and self-confidence all of which will impact your core sense of self.
