Lynne Cowburn

I believe in the innate ability of every human to heal, even when it feels too dark to do so. My goal is to help you foster insights, understanding and acceptance of the obstacles that prevent you from expanding into a more ease-filled way of being, as we explore alternative and empowering changes. I use a range of skills (including CBT/ACT/Mindfulness/Psychodynamic/Somatic) in a warm, compassionate and authentic container. I bring a holistic perspective, honouring the connection of mind, body and soul. I work with adult clients, couples and groups, in person and virtually. I have specialized training in Somatic Trauma Processing: SEP and neurodiversity. Thoughts, emotions and behaviors that cause us distress can be regulated, altered, adapted and changed. Evidence-based modalities such as CBT/DBT/ACT/Somatic processing assist us in this, to experience ourselves in a more easeful manner that enhances our sense of meaning, and overall state of being. I strive to provide a container of unconditional positive regard and warmth, to support one moving through suffering, fear, pain and dysfunction. My professional experience in mental health across three countries and three decades has helped cultivate a deep insight and compassion into the human condition.
