Clearwater Counselling
hope, possibility and healing
Are you feeling overwhelmed and exhausted? You don’t have to do it alone. It’s possible to loosen the grip of the past and live a more fulfilling life.
Together, we can help you discover what’s keeping you stuck in old patterns. As we identify and relax those blocks, you can begin to move towards what matters with more ease, flexibility and aliveness.
Therapy helps people build confidence, stability and a deep inner strength that comes from knowing that you can handle life’s ups and downs. You can do this too. Let’s do it together.

Therapy helps us learn about ourselves and be who we really are
All living things have a natural drive towards growth, as well as strategies to protect ourselves from harm. The tension between reaching for growth and keeping ourselves safe is part of the human experience.
However, there often comes a point where the things we do to feel safe make us feel trapped or stuck. We might begin to resent the ways we prioritize other people's needs, or notice that we keep going around in old, painful patterns. We might be confused about why these things keep happening, why we feel different from others or struggle to do things that other people seem to do easily.
​
Therapy is a space where we can begin to look at some of those patterns and experiences. A space where we can name the harmful systems that exist in the world around us, recover from the harm that we've experienced and find our path out of confusion, self-hate, overwhelm and spinning in circles.
Together we can bring some curiosity towards what's happening, invite some fresh air into the places that feel stuck, and have a more positive and self-accepting experience of life.
Online Therapy in BC
Clearwater Counselling provides effective online therapy across BC, Yukon and the Northwest Territories via a secure video platform. Online therapy has been proven to be just as effective as in-person therapy, and can be helpful if you live in a remote community or have limited time or mobility. Online therapy can also reduce barriers if you are struggling with things that make it hard to get out of the house, like chronic pain or illness. Feel free to reach out and ask any questions you might have about how online therapy works and if it might be a good fit for you.
Consultation Call
A consultation call is an opportunity to ask questions, have a chat, and get a sense of how comfortable you feel with a potential therapist.
30 min, no charge.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy sessions are 60 or 75 min long and are a chance to work one on one to address what's going on in your life. If you're a new client, you are welcome to choose whether you start with a free consultation or a full therapy session.
Relationship Therapy
Relationship therapy sessions are longer, between 75-90 min, to allow more time for each person to be heard and to identify and work with the patterns that are going on between you.
New relationship therapy clients can choose between a free consultation or a 90 min initial session.
