Gottman Method Therapists in Qualicum Beach, BC

I specialize in working with people struggling with ADHD, anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. I have a deep understanding of how anxiety affects all stages of relationships (including finding a partner in the first place) and I support my clients to move from feeling lonely and disconnected to confident and secure. In addition to my individual work, I offer couples' counselling using the Gottman method, which goes beyond just communication skills and gets to the root of the problem. I prioritize making sure clients leave feeling seen and heard by their partner, equipped with new skills to get out of a stuck place.

I find hope in what seems to be hopeless situations and clients trust that I can help without judgment. Listening to my clients' personal stories is both an honour and a privilege; feeling heard and understood is often their first significant step towards change. Mostly what I've found is that in my 30 years in the field of psychology and mental health, most of us can work through most of life's little challenges. When you have a challenge that you can't quite get past on your own - There's Counselling for That!

With over a decade in the social service field and as a Canadian Certified and Registered Clinical Counsellor, ADHD Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) and master of counselling (MC), I work with clients to manage life’s circumstances and find healthier ways of engaging with self and others. When you come into a session, I will offer compassion when you feel vulnerable and calmness when things feel chaotic. There is a reason you feel the way you do and you do not have to face it alone. You can count on a safe and accepting space to share your concerns and, in turn, I will offer support and guidance along your journey.

Taking that first step towards healing takes courage. I want to honour that and walk alongside of you while we work towards your wellness goals. The reality is that not many people are taught the skills to deal with life’s wear and tear. More often than not, we find ourselves in situations where we simply do not know how to work through things on our own. The good news is that we don't have to, and you are on the path to support now! Warmth and acceptance are key tenants of my practice, and sessions will be collaborative, judgment free and open to exploring whatever you bring to the table.

Hi there! My name is Kiana and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with a Master's Degree in Counselling. As a young girl, I always found myself drawn to helping others. I struggled to feel confident and accepted by others at school, so I promised myself that when I grew up, I would orient my career towards supporting and comforting others. I take an Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) approach to therapy, meaning that I see hardships in life as being inevitable. By helping you discover your core life values, you can live a life that is positive and meaningful, despite having to navigate painful experiences.
