Trauma, Anxiety & Depression – Are You Looking For Answers?
We all want answers. When you’re anxious, depressed, over-sensitive, numb, afraid, confused, sad, guilty and/or ashamed you wonder;
“How come I feel this way?”
“How come I think this way?”
“Why can’t I be more like that person?”
“Why is it so hard for me to do tasks?”
“Why can’t my partner/ child/ co-worker/ friend/ boss just do this one thing and then everything would be better?”
The questions we ask are endless.
There is a reason you feel and behave the way that you do. When you have all the evidence it can make sense, but you are missing pieces of that information.
Those pieces are hidden in:
Our experiences growing up;
Our unconscious beliefs about ourselves, the world and other people;
Our emotions.
Everyone Has Trauma
Psychological trauma occurs when we experience a distressing event. Trauma is often the result of an overwhelming amount of stress that exceeds one’s ability to cope and integrate the emotions involved with that experience. When we are children, we can experience an event as traumatic even though as an adult that event may seem insignificant.
Counselling Can Help – Online and In-Person Sessions
Going through the struggle of life can become an insurmountable wall that paralyzes us. Safe Harbour Counselling helps you discover the missing pieces of information in your struggle, allowing for choice in how you feel, think and behave. We help you learn tools to move through your life obstacles differently, opening doors to peace, happiness and freedom.
Safe Harbour Counselling is a private practice based in Summerland, B.C. which focuses on trauma, anxiety and depression. We offer experiential, individual counselling sessions, online and in-person.
We also help counsellors by offering Supervision for practicing counsellors. We will introduce you to tools that can help you in your search for peace, hope, clarity, purpose, connection and happiness. As an Instructor and Supervisor of junior therapists practicing experiential counselling since 2009, I have worked with people with a wide range of experiences.
The nature of my approach combines teaching theory, providing assignments and experiential exercises to bring the most out of your counselling experience. This brings the counselling to your life to create permanent change.
“Everything that happens to you is a reflection of what you believe about yourself. We cannot outperform our level of self-esteem. We cannot draw to ourselves more than we think we are worth.” — Iyanla Vanzant
