Family Systems Therapists in Salt Spring Island, BC

I am committed to honouring the unique qualities of each individual and helping them explore their innate resources for well-being. Whether you are healing from a trauma, anxious about this stage in your life, or adapting to a changing world, we can work together to help you cultivate a more meaningful life and develop skills to navigate challenges. As both the Director and RCC at Thriving Roots Counselling Services, I support youth, couples, and families on their healing journeys, many who have been rediscovering their own gifts and resilience with my support.

Candice is a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) who nearly 20 years of therapeutic experience with individuals and families, including children and youth, to her counselling practice.

I serve adults, children, families and couples working through the complex realities of our time. Do you have trouble finding belonging in community, to the Earth, and your life path? Do you feel hopeless and yet strive forward knowing there's something deep calling you? Do you believe in working towards peace, yet conflicts in your relationships continue as you struggle to find your way through? Do you struggle with self love, shame, feeling as though you can never do enough? Do you have a deep sense of integrity, but are filled with grief of a world that won't see you or support you? Do you feel alone in it all?

These are unusual and challenging times. Old certainties fall away. Many of us feel isolated within concerns and uncertainties that cannot be spoken - there's simply no space for them. This can soon become a corrosive and frustrating experience: purpose and meaning fall away and even close and special relationships become more pale and unsatisfactory. However, the unsettling sense of something missing is actually rich with information about what you may need: think about everything that the empty space in a jigsaw puzzle tells you about the missing piece, and what you might look for. Psyche is not out to get us!

I am an experienced therapist, working with individuals and couples. I am open to helping you with a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, self-care, spirituality, life purpose, end of life issues, ageing, stress, parenting, work, vocation, sexual orientation, transitioning, gender questioning, chronic illness, sexual abuse, and the residue of early childhood experiences.

The journey toward healing can be challenging and you don’t have to do it alone. As a counsellor, my goal is to offer you a safe space to belong, be seen and heard, and explore life's challenges together. I will work with you to develop and deepen an awareness of your experiences, understand narratives/patterns that prevent you from making a change, and move towards more preferred ways of being. I have over 5 years of experience working in therapeutic and supportive roles with youth, families, and adults. I specialize in the areas of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, life transitions & more.

I offer counseling services to individuals, couples and adolescents on Salt Spring Island and virtually across Canada and the United States. My work is personal, compassionate and direct. I stay close to my client’s experience, without judgment, pointing towards opportunities for growth. Life presents us all with challenges and sometimes we need help facing them. We often need a mirror to help us understand how to change outdated behaviors that are just not working or resolve inner conflicts that are keeping us from living a fulfilling life.

Welcome to the counselling services at Celtic Place and Healing Place. Counselling provides a space and opportunity for you to explore thoughts and feelings, behaviours and relationships that may be troubling you or causing difficulty in your life. Counselling also offers a source of support in times of crisis and during difficult times such as you may be experiencing now. Some of the ways in which counselling can be beneficial is through bringing deeper personal insight, helping find better ways of coping with problems and it also can help you improve your relationships.

I work virtually with many individuals who are facing struggles with their day to day life including grief, stress, anxiety, depression and major life transitions. If there is an identified issue that you would like to work through we can tackle that together, though sometimes there is just a deep desire for life to be easier and to remove the obstacles that we all can find in our way from being truly happy and fully expressed. Whether there are specific concerns or general worries, I can help identify what stands in your way and together we can create a plan to lead you to your most fully expressed version of yourself.

Finding someone to trust as you are managing through turbulent times is stressful, and can be overwhelming. I thank you for considering me as part of this journey. Specializing in strength-based approaches to assist individuals, families, and couples to find balance in daily living. I work hard to build solid relationships through understanding and trust while offering an opportunity to challenge growth in my clients though healing of the past and paving new paths to the future.

Professional Counselling, Integrated Therapies, and Heart-Centred Hypnotherapy for couples, groups, and individuals 16 and up. Integrated Therapies create an embodied, trauma-informed space of exploration and connection, for the resolution of trauma, life and relationship patterns, and interpersonal conflict. Sessions seek to reflect, witness and support what is new, emerging and most needed for resolution and growth. As we discover + embrace our own inner 'coding' of language, symbols, meaning and emotion, we find a new engagement with life, ourselves, and those around us, becoming more aware, responsive, and connected from within.

Do you have a feeling that your life should feel better than it does? Are you doing all the things you’re supposed to do to be successful or healthy yet still struggle to feel good about your life? Maybe life is feeling monotonous, flat or disconnected and whatever has worked before just isn’t doing it for you now. Maybe you wonder, am I broken? Let me assure you that YOU are not what is broken. In fact, within you is all the knowing and resources you will ever need to create the vibrant thriving life you have been desiring. However, the operating instructions you’ve been following might need a rewrite.

If you're looking for long lasting change and finally breaking patterns, I'd love to support you. "Somatic counselling with Fiona is bringing change to my life in a powerful and profound way. I can't explain what exactly is happening inside me, it isn't the work I'm used to doing in counselling, and yet when the connection happens and release comes I feel like I have unloaded years worth of heavy emotions. My life is naturally shifting in ways that I never imagined possible, my body has started to process emotion differently, I am thinking about life differently, and I feel powerful. I am shifting in ways that I never imagined."
