Hello, I'm Dr. Pamela Seraphine. What if trauma therapy was uplifting? What if you could retrain your brain? Contrary to popular belief, both are possible! I’m here to offer you a whole new perspective of what is possible. I use my passion for applied neuroscience to provide quality 1-on-1 neuropsychotherapy, brain-based coaching, and various mental health educational services. My approach is designed to create engaging, interactive experiences that help my clients build sustainable, positive change. I’m also a professional musician, so music-making is not out of the question!

If you or a loved one are suffering from addictions or are concerned about emotional well being please get in touch for a FREE 20 minute phone consult. I am a Counsellor with 15 years of experience working in residential and outpatient treatment programs with both individuals and groups. I have a passion for helping individuals and families impacted by substance use disorders as well as for supporting first responders dealing with operational stress injuries. I use a blend of approaches including motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, existential therapy and mindfulness.

I have experience providing mental health support to both youth and adults related to a range of difficulties such as depression, anxiety, substance use and addictions, PTSD and trauma, emotional regulation, stress management, as well as more severe mental health symptoms and diagnosis such as psychosis, Schizophrenia, Bipolar, and also personality disorders such as Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD). I am a registered service provider with the Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP) and ICBC.

I provide psychological and psycho-educational assessment services for individuals with educational, emotional and cognitive disorders. This includes assessments for learning disorders, reading issues, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). I work with children, adolescents and adults.

I have worked in the field for 35 years as a teacher, school psychologist, registered psychologist and provincial consultant for autism and behavioural issues in the schools.

I work with clients whom wish to push the boundaries of “normal” to uncover & deconstruct the root causes of their suffering. Many of the people that I work with are dealing with major depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, and overall frustration with the current state of society and the environment. The clients that I see often present to me with symptoms such as feeling blocked, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, alone, and powerless in their life. I support clients to transform their pain into strength so that they can live a more fulfilled life.

Life is difficult. I work with clients to relieve pain and stress in their lives through somatic therapy, narrative therapy, psychoanalytic theory, and personality theory while using strategies such as CBT, with the goal of living a more meaningful life. As clients discover more about their morals and values, they understand more about their behaviour and emotions. Psychotherapy can be an incredible experience; I encourage clients to explore what is meaningful and purposeful in their life.

I heard that the purpose of therapy is not meant to change who you are, but to become who you really are. I use evidence-based therapy to help you learn skills to better face challenges while also building insight into how these issues may have come about. I use a kind of talk therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on understanding and being open to thoughts and emotions, being aware of the present moment and your perspective in it, and deepening your values with actionable steps. I also have specialized training in sleep issues.

Hi! I'm Dominique. Life can get tricky and I understand that speaking to someone about it may be difficult. Finding the right words to describe how you feel or what you have experienced can be challenging, and it should not be something that one should have to experience on their own. With my understanding that each individual has their own unique story and experiences, I tend to take a person-centered in counselling in which I alter my clinical skills to fit the needs and preferences of my client. I am attentive to each client's biological, environmental, and social factors and consider them when applying therapeutic approaches.

I love helping people, which is why I chose to go into counselling. Everyone goes through times of struggles and challenges. It takes strength to face challenges and to actively work toward doing things differently. While the process can be difficult, I believe the outcome makes it worthwhile. I enjoy working along side my clients to help them navigate these times.
