Best Meditation Classes in Maple Ridge, BC

Well, that depends on you! Our work varies depending on what's going on in your life. Most times, my clients find counselling to be a helpful space for gaining clarity, finding solutions to problems, and removing harmful narratives that keep you from achieving your goals and/or having great relationships.

Registered Clinical Counsellors are trained in a variety of areas and at minimum, have a Masters degree and have passed an extensive practicum experience. Some counsellors even pursue extra, more specialized training to broaden their effectiveness. Social workers usually offer more practical support such as connecting you with housing, jobs, or other services, but some do decide to focus on therapeutic work. Finally, Psychologists holds either a PsyD or PhD. Because of the extra training, they are able to do assessments and support in obtaining a diagnosis.

The first appointment is to get to know you and your situation better. Through the process, we get a better sense of what you're looking for and what best supports you. We also make sure you understand the process of therapy and what your rights are. Usually, by the end of the session, we'll have talked about a rough plan of how we can approach your goals. Sometimes folks feel anxious in the first session; the most important thing to remember is that you don't owe me your story - you can tell me as much or as little as you want and there's literally no way for you to do your first session "wrong"!

Online counselling works very similarly to in-person counselling, except no travel time is required. To prepare for your online counselling sessions, make sure your device is charged, that you have access to the internet, and that you are in a quiet, secured place where you won't be interrupted. Clients who prefer integrating art into our work also tend to have their favorite art supplies nearby.
