Therapists in V1T

Helping families, individuals and children through difficult experiences has been my career's focus for over 25 years. I utilize child-centered play/art therapy, sand tray work, emotional regulation, cognitive behavioural therapy and rational emotive behavioural therapy. These strategies allow children and adults to reveal their anger, fears sadness or frustrations in order to better understand and express themselves. My holistic and creative approach allows clients to feel comfortable, heal, overcome obstacles and embrace positive changes that can ultimately create a more satisfying quality of life.

I have a passion for working with individuals who are struggling to stay on top of their emotional responses. This can be due to so many factors from the state of our world, the result of high anxiety, an overactive stress response, trauma and post traumatic stress disorder, conflict in relationships, or burnout. We all experience times when our usual coping strategies are no longer enough and we are in distress. Our relationships suffer, our work suffers and our families suffer.

If you have experienced trauma through abuse or your family caregivers have failed you. If you need help for low self-worth, depression, anxiety and hopelessness; if you need direction and skills to better communicate and manage your intimate relationships while growing closer together.

Hi! I'm Bronwyn. I offer a range of therapeutic approaches both virtually and in person at my office, downtown Vernon, BC.
