Individual therapy, group therapy
and couples therapy with a trauma focus
Welcome
I am so glad you are here
I'm Diana, an MA, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) counselling therapist. I own and operate my private therapy practice based in Langley, B.C. offering online and phone counselling for clients in the lower mainland and across BC. I enjoy working with women, teens, adults, seniors and couples.
I am a person who excels at helping people understand themselves better, resolve their feelings and repair and heal from the effects of trauma. I am a warm and caring person who enjoys this career field immensely as it offers me a chance to truly connect and assist clients in achieving their goals and hopes for their lives.
I offer a free 30 minute consultation so that prospective clients and I can speak, ask each other questions and get a feel to see if we are a good fit to work together.
If you are feeling any of the following:
-depressive symptoms
-anxiousness
-panic attacks
-issues with getting to and staying asleep/sleeping
-not being able to feel a sense of being happy or content in your life
-lacking energy and motivation in life
-feeling as if you cannot get past events/relationships
-feeling as if you are being held back or stuck
-misunderstood by your family and/or friends
-unworthy of love and/or friendship
-struggle with a harsh inner critic
-difficulty communicating in your marriage and/or relationship
-feeling as if you do not have trauma but cannot understand why you feel as you do about your life
-worries/concerns about yourself becoming a parent/being a parent
-worries about being a first time mother and what the experience of childbirth and mothering will be
Using a variety of approaches I help facilitate healing from relationships, events and trauma as well as grief and brain trauma.
I treat:
-Depression
-Anxiety
-the effects of Trauma
-improving communication, compassion and understanding in couples relationships
-Grief and complicated grief
-Post Traumatic Stress Disorder PTSD
-Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder CPTSD
-Post Traumatic Stress Injury PTSI
I utilize Psychotherapy which can be an amazing tool for assisting in personal growth and shifting maladaptive behaviours and patterns held by trauma. The approaches I use are multi faceted and integrated ways of working with the body and brain.
I am also a Brainspotting practitioner (BSP) which assists in processing and releasing memories and other problematic symptoms.
Brainspotting is also used to enhance performance and athletic performance and increase one's sense of connection. Working together we can find ways of helping you strengthen your foundation, resources and increase your overall resilience.
I especially enjoy helping women and teens identify their own voices and learn to really tune into their own needs and wants. I am passionate about helping them to understand the issues that are causing them to lack happiness, feelings of sadness, anxiety, and stress. One of the best things I get to do is to help them find ways to create calm in their lives, use and set boundaries and how to preserve their peace going forward and how the information learned can lead to such a different outlook.
I take immense pride in the progress and success of my clients, and I'm looking forward to helping you. Working remotely I can work with clients all over our beautiful province.
