Do you say to yourself, "why can't I just..." fill in the blank? You, your child, or family feel stuck in a repeating pattern of disappointment, unmet expectations, or behavioral patterns. You've implemented solutions but the effects don't last long or maybe you don't even know where to begin. One thing is for sure; you are ready for relief. You're ready to feel grounded, connected to strategies that work, to be present, and thrive in life.

I work with adults who are seeking help with life changes, relationship challenges, parenting challenges, mental health issues (in themselves or in their partners), or anything that is preventing them from being their best self. Ideally my clients would not be struggling with active addiction or a mental health crisis. They'd be interested in getting to the root of their issues, and be committed to several sessions. I know we are all "enough", and that the answers we seek lie within ourselves. Sometimes a counsellor can help you find those answers, and I'd be honored to try.

Accepting new clients. Are you feeling “off”, not quite like yourself and can’t pinpoint why? This may show up as depression, anxiousness, anger, dissociation, low self-esteem or grief. I hold a space to go deeper to understand yourself, mend trauma, and get back to your functional authentic self. As relational beings, our daily interactions shape us in profound and complex ways. I acknowledge the nuances of each person’s lived experience and offer inclusive support for members of the BIPOC and LGBTQ2S+ communities.

Accepting new male clients. Do you feel disconnected from yourself, your relationship/friendships in life? Are you struggling under what feels like a mountain of burdens you've been carrying? I help men reconnect the relationship they have with themselves and start to build a healthier and more connected life. Do you feel you've had to bury your emotions in order to get through life? Have you experienced situations in your lifetime that has caused you to create survival strategies that are causing you or others harm now? I get it. It feels exhausting to keep it all in to hold it together.

My own journey through illness in my 20's woke me up to the value of our inner world. That a sense of peace and connection to ourselves can give us the strength to face challenging situations and loss. I learned that having a compassionate witness to see yourself through is very empowering and reassuring.

My name is Bronwyn. I'm a neurofeedback therapist in Kelowna, BC. I also work virtually with clients in BC and most Canadian provinces by secure video call. One of my personal interests in psychology is the connection between neuroscience and spirituality.

Are you ready to heal? Physical pain, anxiety and depression associated with trauma/overwhelming experiences can be compounded by frustration and hopelessness when telling our story doesn't bring relief. After trauma, we can remain seemingly stable for many years until the body's management strategies begin to falter, as the nervous system reaches it's capacity to cope. Trauma has often been misunderstood by doctors and therapists alike, overlooked or dismissed as a key factor in our overall health. Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a highly specialized therapy that effectively treats trauma, supporting healing where the rupture has occurred - in the nervous system.

Do you find yourself feeling stuck lately? Struggling to feel connected with yourself and those around you? Have you been feeling lonely, overwhelmed, anxious or depressed? Maybe you're noticing that your past is having a negative impact on your present. So many of us find ourselves making the same mistakes; repeating old patterns, again and again. This often leaves us feeling defeated, invalidated and powerless in our very own lives. I am passionate about helping clients identify and overcome the obstacles that keep them from reaching their full potential.

Living with ADHD is so exhausting! You walk around everyday just trying to escape the hamster wheel that won't stop spinning. And worst, you have to mask around others just to appear "normal". You are drowning in even the simplest of tasks; living out of a laundry basket of unfolded clothes with day 3 of unwashed hair and did you even eat today? Life feels like chaos all the time! Did I mention the focus and time? Your probably even reading this after doom scrolling for the past three hours. But don't beat yourself up because of it. I'm Neurodivergent too; and I understand! Life doesn’t have to fit together perfectly like Lego!

Would you like to be well? I believe most people want to be well, but often lack knowledge or life skills. Equipping people to achieve healthy change is my goal. I have been a professional counsellor for over thirty years, with twelve of them in the field of addictions treatment and co-dependency.

I work with children, parents, and adults navigating stress, emotional regulation, or developmental concerns. Many are seeking more clarity, connection, or confidence—whether in parenting, relationships, or their own inner world. My ideal client is curious about doing things differently, even if unsure where to begin. They want compassionate support, practical tools, and a calm space to better understand themselves or their child and move toward meaningful change.
