Practice information:

My name is Kristen Hamilton (she/her) and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Approved Clinical Supervisor with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. I hold a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology, with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy.

Over the past 12 years, my professional experiences have been driven by my passion for working with individuals and families. I have worked in a wide range of settings and populations, including hospital, non-profit and private practice.

I am passionate about helping individuals identify and overcome the obstacles that prevent them from reaching their fullest potential. As your therapist, I seek to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore patterns and beliefs that may be hindering you from making meaningful changes in your life. Together, we can explore and process the impact past wounds and relationships may be having on your sense of self and your relationships. Through processing and beginning to challenge these beliefs, I seek to help my clients feel more empowered and confident in establishing and maintaining their relationship with themselves and others.

In my work with clients, I use components of person-centred theory, attachment theory, family systems theory, mindfulness, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and accelerated experiential dynamic psychotherapy (AEDP). Our practice is an LGBTQIA2S+ friendly space and trauma-informed.
