Practice information:

My name is Kelsey, and I am a dedicated counsellor and Registered Social Worker (MSW/RSW) licensed by the British Columbia College of Social Workers (BCCSW). In 2020, I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from the University of Toronto. Alongside my MSW, I completed a Collaborative Specialization in Addiction Studies, further enhancing my expertise in this critical area.

Currently, I am excited be accepting new clients at Peak Experience, where I offer a safe and supportive environment for individuals seeking assistance with various challenges. My specialization lies in helping clients navigate issues related to anxiety, depression, substance use, and the complex aftermath of unresolved trauma.

One of the unique aspects of my therapeutic approach is my training as an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist. With this specialized skill set, alongside, my other therapeutic approaches, I am well-equipped to assist individuals in processing and healing from traumas, whether they are significant life events or more subtle emotional wounds.

I am deeply passionate about the intricate connections between our minds and bodies and how they impact our overall well-being. In therapy, I emphasize the cultivation of these mind-body connections to foster profound healing experiences. My therapeutic toolbox extends beyond traditional talk therapy, incorporating a range of evidence-based techniques and practices.

In our sessions, I draw upon various therapeutic modalities, tailoring my approach to suit your unique needs and preferences. Among the other methods I employ are Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These approaches empower you to explore your inner world, develop coping strategies, and build resilience, all while fostering personal growth and well-being.

Choosing therapy is a courageous step towards self-discovery and healing, and I am here to support you every step of the way. I look forward to supporting each of my clients on their unique journey towards greater emotional well-being and personal growth. If you are ready to take this step or have any questions, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and help you achieve your goals.
