Bessel Van Der Kolk
As a counsellor, I am committed to providing a safe space, through empathy and curiosity, that inspires opportunities for new perspectives and personal growth. It is my honour to hold that space for you and to hear your story at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we will collaborate to identify your goals, navigate obstacles, and foster positive change toward a more meaningful life.
My approach to counselling is relational, person-centered, strengths-oriented, and trauma-informed. I use a holistic perspective that considers the intersectionality of your diverse identities as well as the context of your life. I aim to tailor my approach to suit your unique and individual needs.
I am passionate about working with both teens and adults struggling with various aspects of their lives. My areas of focus are: anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, life transitions, relational issues, personal growth, and self-esteem.
My hope for you in our journey together, is that through further exploration of your personal narratives, you will gain a newfound understanding and a greater connection to your authentic self.
You are welcome to reach out to me to book a free consultation where you can ask any questions and gain a feel for counselling.
I look forward to collaborating with you.
