Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists in T2T

Hello, I am now accepting new individual and couples' therapy clients in BC and AB. Referrals may include clients with Depressive Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Bipolar and Related Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders, Trauma and Stressor Related Disorders, relationship issues, CBT for Psychosis, and Health-related matters (e.g. adjustment to neurological diagnoses/TBI). Longer term therapy and "depth work" related to personality or life stage challenges are also offered. In addition to psychotherapy services, my practice includes psychological/diagnostic assessment and neuropsychological assessment reports.

We all have experiences that turn our world upside down. These experiences can be anything, but when it happens, we can feel confused, lost, or stuck while struggling to adjust to our new reality. I aim to support clients so that they gain self-knowledge, build resilience, and feel capable in their "new normal." As a Registered Psychologist, I work with individuals (adult and teens), couples, and families to help them achieve and maintain mental wellness while going through experiences that challenge them. I believe all challenges occur within a context, so I include social and cultural factors into my work with all clients.

Therapy Collective utilizes a multi-therapist approach to client care. What does this mean for you? Having the benefit of matching your presenting concerns with the therapist whose strengths and approach are best suited to your process. This might mean engaging with more than one of our therapists during your time to meet all of your therapeutic goals. Our therapists cover everything from processing complex trauma through Cognitive-HypnoTherapy to providing anxiety-reducing techniques. Our team is trained across a variety of approaches and modalities to ensure you receive comprehensive care.

Finding the right therapist can be overwhelming and sometimes it takes meeting more than one person before settling on the right person for you. Working with a therapist, whether for a brief encounter or a long collaboration, is a journey. My goal is to ensure that your very first contact with me is a positive and helpful one. I have advanced training and expertise in working with toddlers, children and adolescents as a registered play therapist. Working from a developmentally-informed perspective I collaborate with parents so they can better understand and best support their children.

Do you feel overwhelmed and weighed down in your relationship? Are you feeling stuck in the same arguments and issues? Are you considering a break up or separation? Are you stuck in blaming and criticizing each other? Are you feeling like your partner doesn’t hear or understand you? If so, you might feel like you’re the only ones struggling but you are not alone. Together we can work to find solutions, to break unhealthy patterns of communication. I work from a solution focused approach, my goal is to listen to you and help discover solutions to bring a sense of understanding, acceptance, joy and connection into your relationships.

I have strong clinical skills and am a goal-oriented therapist and celebrating 40 years experience in July, 2023. I'm passionate about my work with those who seek new meaning to multiple issues and who need clarity to that which has been overwhelming. You will be supported to participate in a process that facilitates healing, learn new skills and be empowered to overcome obstacles and replace unhealthy patterns. In our work, you will discover opportunities to appreciate the purpose, lessons and potential gifts out of your challenges.

Perhaps you’ve had a recent experience that has affected you deeply, experiencing a emotional or mental shift for some time, or have a past that has somehow found its way to affect the present. I create personalized treatment plans for each client that are grounded in science and research, in order to help every person I work with to achieve their goals. If this sounds like something you would benefit from please reach out to see if my approach is the right fit for you.

My therapeutic approach is one of collaboration - I am here to support you as you navigate through a difficult time in your life. I will provide a safe, non-judgemental environment that will encourage and empower you to heal and grow. Counselling sessions will focus on recognizing the abilities, strengths, and resources, within the client.

"Your spark can become a flame and change everything" Hi, I'm Tiffany Petite. I am an evidence based - practitioner who has extensive training and experience in counselling. Have you been stuck in a rut that you can’t get out of? The more you procrastinate the harder it is to achieve your goal to the point you start questioning yourself. This leads to self judgement, shame and blame. Change starts with a single point of action. If things are not going as planned, you are shifting the tide today. I would like to help you facilitate the change you are looking for.

We understand how messy, intimidating, and overwhelming therapy can be. We strive to provide a supportive, non-judgemental space in our virtual sessions where you can enjoy the comforts of your own home. We have therapists who are able to address those pesky negative thoughts and who are able to pick a therapeutic approach based on your needs and goals. We want to encourage continued learning outside the counselling space by giving you the tools you need to do so. Client care and advocacy are important; if we don’t have the right tools you need, we won’t stop searching until we do!
