Adrienne Johnson, M.A., M.Div, RCC, CCC   I am passionate about helping clients who are facing challenges in transitions, relationships, or who are exploring questions about their life’s meaning and purpose. I also have experience working with anxiety, depression, and stress management. I approach my work with warmth, inclusion and open-mindedness.

Christen McCallum. I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and EMDR Therapist with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors and I hold my Graduate Degree in Counselling Psychology from Adler University where I focused on trauma recovery. I am passionate about developing a space where clients can feel secure as they explore their story in an environment of therapeutic connection. My hope is that in our time together clients may come to find effective tools to manage their symptoms, overcome challenges they face, and make meaning as they move forward in healing.

I maintain a holistic mind-body oriented approach to therapy grounded in neuroscience, with an emphasis on attachment and relational healing. I use a trauma informed integrative approach and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional with the International Association of Trauma Professionals and an EMDRIA approved EMDR therapist with advanced training.

Robert Phillips, M.Mus, MCP, CCTP, RCC. My professional goal is to provide a non-judgmental and open heart to my clients, so that they may feel comfortable to fully investigate their potential for growth. Fundamentally, too, I believe that openness and creativity in the therapeutic process are paramount to success. Whether you are passing through a life transition, facing depression or anxiety, battling addiction, or simply feeling stuck, I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey and to discovering new ways to cope.

Human beings already have the necessary tools and resources to tackle what life presents, and it is only in the absence of a therapeutic relationship that these resources are kept from awareness. It takes real courage to face the challenges of life head-on. Contacting a mental health practitioner is worthy of admiration. I hold a Master of Counselling from Adler University in Vancouver, and I am an RCC with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors (#16632). Whether it is the person-centred approach, cognitive-behavioural therapy, or some other technique that fits best, I believe we can find new ways of being that will work for you.

Kristen Hamilton, M.A., RCC  I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor who is passionate about helping youth and adults identify and overcome the obstacles that prevent them from reaching their full potential. I seek to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for youth and adults to explore patterns and beliefs that may be hindering them from making meaningful changes in their lives. Together, we can explore and process the impact past wounds and relationships may be having on your sense of self and your relationships. Through processing and beginning to challenge these beliefs, I seek to help my clients feel more empowered and confident in establishing and maintaining their relationship with themselves and others.

I have a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. I approach counselling from a person-centred, family systems and attachment-informed perspective. I also incorporate aspects of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT), as appropriate.
