Surrey Counsellor

Are you struggling with anxiety and depression? Do you feel stuck in your relationships? Are you looking for change but feel like you are going in circles and not making progress? Do you feel haunted by traumatic experience in the past? Life is joyful and precious but oftentimes it can throw you a curveball. How would meeting with a counsellor help? Counselling is a beautifully collaborative work where you would be invited to unfold your own story and rewrite it with new meanings. Strengths are identified, goals are met, skills are learnt, and changes are made in the safe and accepting therapeutic process.

My name is Renee and I hold a Master of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology (MACP). I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and an EMDR trained therapist. I offer evidence-based, client-centered, and trauma-informed approaches such as eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and narrative therapy. As a BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour) counsellor who is also a Christian believer, I integrate my therapeutic approaches and incorporate great values from culture and spirituality. Every story is unique, and it is my honor to be onboard your journey of healing from psychological distress and traumatic experience.  I specialize in working with youth and young adults between the ages of 11 and 26 and I also work with adult clients from all walks of life including diverse gender, sexual, and religious orientation.
