Hi there, I’m Gillian! I am a registered Clinical Counsellor with the BCACC. My own journey as a counsellor has been shaped through assisting individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, shame, addiction, and burnout, as well as years of experience supporting Survivors of violence and abuse. My counselling approach is rooted in the belief that when life's challenges leave you feeling stuck, change is not only possible but inherent to the human experience. In my own practice, I have often found that change occurs through a greater connection with our authentic self and others.

I work primarily from attachment and trauma-based models. You’ll find that I approach all clients with compassion and curiosity and will aim to support you in doing the same for yourself. I am driven to create spaces where you feel seen, heard, and understood on a deep level, and when you meet me, you'll find that I am warm, non-judgemental, and empathetic.

If you're interested in working together or have any questions, you're welcome to book a free consultation. I believe that it is important for you to find the right therapist and have the chance to see if I feel like a fit!

I often use a bottom-up approach in therapy, which emphasizes the importance of noticing our body sensations and experiences in the moment. By attuning to our body's signals, we can understand the intricate interplay between physical sensations and mental processes, leading to deeper insight and transformative healing.

These models support the idea that individuals have an inherent ability to heal and thrive when provided with the right conditions and support. Therapy often looks like supporting clients in accessing and processing emotions, enhancing relational functioning (with self and others), cultivating self-compassion, and fostering resilience and well-being.
