Counsellor Directory

This innovative membership service serves to promote business information about your counselling practice, specialized services and skills as well as the ability to upload a profile picture and business logo. With futurist trends heading towards a generation that seeks information online as well as a specific set of skills, knowledge and experience, the CPCA believes this directory will provide a competitive edge for marketing our member's counselling services across Canada to the public, insurance providers, EAP contractors and government for verification of your legitimacy. All members who are in "good standing" will be approved to list their contact information in the directory on an annual basis. It allows our members to login to their directory listing once it has been approved and make any changes to their contact information.

Description

Are you walking on eggshells in a close relationship to avoid conflict? Or perhaps, you feel invisible - with a partner, family member or adult child? This can feel all consuming where you are reacting in a manner that isn't aligned with who you know yourself to be. Unfortunately, this leaves you feeling confused and responsible for this person's mood and reactions, or lack thereof. You do value the choice about your level of engagement in this relationship in a judgement-free counselling space as you are not sure about making any big changes in your life right now. You are needing a supportive and confidential space to process your challenging relationship with a knowledgeable counsellor.

Through psychoeducation, we will identify the patterns in your relationship and make the connection of how their behaviour affects the way you feel. It can be incredibly validating to connect the dots of your experience and break away from the cognitive dissonance and shift towards conscious participation in your relationship. We will also make the connection with your body’s sensations and nervous system regulation to break the habitual state of flight, fight, freeze and fawn in response to your external world and challenging relationships by building a somatic toolkit to support yourself when needed.

I provide a secure, private and confidential online space for you to process your complex relationship challenges. I will reassure you that exploring your experience in a toxic relationship is not a betrayal to the other person. Recovery from relational trauma begins within yourself to reveal your inner strength with each gradual step forward. I look forward to hearing from you.
