Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists in V5K

There is a saying that is very true and I believe that most people need to hear it. "It's okay to not be okay;" Everyone has their own challenges and struggles in life. I have been able to gain valuable experience working with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. I have experience using modalities such as Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical-Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, Acceptance-Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). These modalities work with many challenges and struggles, meaning there is no right or wrong modality.

Hi! I'm Bronwyn. I offer a range of unique therapeutic approaches which can be done online or in person. Some of the services I offer are: Neurofeedback, Dream & Nightmare Therapy, Art Therapy, Breathwork, and various types of Energy Healing modalities.

Your current circumstances don't dictate where you'll end up. They serve as a starting point for change. We all have the potential to move forward, sometimes having support is the key to getting there. My counselling approach is collaborative and straightforward with a touch of humour. Using a blend of your personal experiences and life context with evidence-based practices such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) and family systems we pinpoint your strengths and build positive coping skills to help you reach your goals.

I approach counselling from a lens that is grounded in the continued practice of anti-racism, disability justice, queer theory, sex positivity, and that recognizes the systemic violence that has, and continues to, harm us and impact our experiences in the world, and inside ourselves. The main niche of folks that I have had the honour of working with over the years have been queer and trans folks, sex workers, disabled folks, non-traditional relationship networks, kink and bdsm communities, BIPOC folks, folks navigating complex trauma, and those living at the intersections of many of these identities.

Hello, and welcome! My name is Anat and I am a registered social worker and a clinical counsellor. I believe in a client-centered and compassionate approach to healing that positions a client’s worldview, culture and social location as important parts of who they are. I have a background in mental health and addictions, and have supported people as they work towards healing and balance in the midst of various life challenges, including: young adulthood, life transitions, family conflict, sense of purposelessness/hopelessness, challenges in post-secondary education, and parenting a child with mental illness and addiction.

Welcome! I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with BCACC in private practice. I bring over 16 years of extensive experience in the mental health and personal growth fields. I practice from a trauma-informed lens to provide a warm and welcoming space. I work with adults, groups and facilitate workshops for individuals dealing with trauma, anxiety, low-mood or depression, relationship challenges, grief and loss. I also provide therapy for pain and stress management particularly after an accident or trauma. I offer mentoring and intuitive life coaching. I provide counselling in English and Spanish.

I create a calming and safe environment where together, we can explore all avenues of growth and healing. My practice is rooted in therapeutic modalities designed to address behaviours, beliefs, feelings, relationship issues, and/or somatic responses (sensations in the body) that might be holding you back from feeling happy, confident, and fully engaged in your life. I provide private therapeutic counselling services for individuals who are committed to self-discovery.

Living with chronic pain can be a debilitating experience, impacting every aspect of one's life. From simple daily tasks to the ability to enjoy hobbies and spend time with loved ones, chronic pain seems to cast a shadow on everything. Drawing from my background in Kinesiology, some of my clinical counselling specialisations include chronic-pain management, post-concussion treatment, and psychological trauma. I have had the privilege of connecting with clients of a wide range of cultural, religious, and circumstantial backgrounds, allowing each client's own personal set of values to guide the counselling process.

There are many pathways that you can take to move through challenges or around obstacles. A Mindful Quest strongly believes that you are the expert in your own lived experience and that you deserve a supportive and encouraging environment as you journey towards your goals. Counselling is not a one-size fits all experience. An individualized, strengths-based counselling approach can help you discover the best therapeutic tools for your needs and empower you in reaching your goals.

Are you feeling exhausted, and confused as to how you got to this point? Do you feel as though something is fundamentally "wrong" with you? This fear can feel like an invisible burden and make it feel like it’s impossible to live and embody your true authentic self. The discomfort over your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors may have led you down the seemingly endless path of trying to figure out what's "wrong" with you, and how to "fix" it. My job as your counsellor is to remind you that you are already whole just the way you are so you can heal and process the emotions and experiences that are keeping you stuck.

In over thirty years working as a psychologist, I have become convinced that the most effective way to help others is through a collaborative approach. When the client and therapist work together to find solutions, the emphasis is placed on the client’s individual perspective and the strengths and successes they have already achieved. At the core of therapy, I believe, is a non-judgemental and compassionate view of how everyone’s personal journey involves overcoming suffering and moving towards self-acceptance, empowerment and emotional well- being.

My name is Lisa and I offer mental health OT services for individuals with ADHD (or suspected ADHD), anxiety, self-esteem challenges, and other mental health symptoms. As someone who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, I understand some of the challenges of navigating mental health services and academic spaces without tailored support. If you experience difficulty in areas such as managing mental health symptoms, routine building, organization, procrastination, academic support, and completing daily tasks, then tailored OT support may be a good fit for you.

Hello, my name is Debbie. Do you wish that you could feel free from stress, anxiety, hopelessness, addiction, and or other life challenges getting in your way? Do you find yourself feeling checked out or overwhelmed? Are you lonely? Have relationship issues? These are just some examples of things I can support you with. You do not have to suffer alone. Seeking help is a sign of strength, and can be the first step to committing to the road to recovery. Together, I can support you to lessen the discomfort you are experiencing in life, and enhance your ability to feel positive emotions and harmony within yourself and towards others.

One of the most profound sources of healing is already embedded in you; your body, your dreams, and your senses are always giving you clues as to what it is you need most, what you are invited to heal next, and where your next best step is. Current neuroscience reveals to us what ancient mystics and spiritual leaders have been showing us for millennia - that we can and will heal in profound ways as we gain capacity to integrate all of our experiences. Journeying together with a practitioner or healer who can see us, accurately reflecting back to us what we could not previously see, is a life-changing experience.

I focus on helping my clients process their experiences, recognize their strengths and resiliency, build awareness of patterns of stuckness, tap into their disposition towards growth and change, and cultivate skills they need to do so. I am particularly passionate about working with anxiety and stress, as well chronic physical conditions. As a former high-performance athlete who has undergone a life-changing injury leaving me with chronic pain, I bring a personal understanding of the powerful relationship between our physical health and mental health and the multi-leveled challenges that can come with major life transitions.

I’m Chrisoula, but most people call me Soula. I’m a trauma-informed clinician dedicated to helping people untangle problems that hold them back from living a life more desirable. It’s a privilege to work alongside the transitions of life experiences that test the boundaries of what it means to be human. I’m passionate about providing a safe and non-judgmental space to understand and support you with life-changing perspectives and coping skills.

I believe one of the most courageous things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I remember what it feels like to be on your side of the couch, overwhelmed by the idea of sharing my most vulnerable stories. When we've hit (or passed) the point of burnout, or we have a stressful experience like a loss or traumatic event, it can be hard to imagine finding joy or fulfillment again. You deserve a space to discover your strengths, make sense of your experiences, and find a meaningful path forward.

As a retired naturopathic doctor, trained psychic intuitive and clinical hypnotherapist certified in Soul Design, I will help you move past blocks to healing, self-sabotaging patterns, and places you are stuck. Subconscious mindset work is often needed to create true freedom, full trauma recovery, and deeper healing. I have studied the mind-body-soul dynamic for more than 20 years.

I retired from medicine, to fully dive into intuitive coaching, subconscious mastery and soul level healin
