Welcome here friends, I’m Courtney!

I’m a MPCC-Provisional Therapist, Artist, Wife + Homeschool Mom to two beautiful daughters!

In August 2023, I graduated from VCCT (Vancouver College of Counsellor Training) with a Diploma in Professional Counselling and my Youth & Family Support Worker Certificate. I’m excited to offer Creative Counselling Sessions to encourage wellness through creative expression as well as supporting with person-centred approaches where creative approaches may not be the right fit. While I’m working towards my MPCC designation with the CPCA, I have the continued support of my Supervisor.

My lifelong love for art was one of a few things that sparked my career as a therapist!

Over years of painting, drawing and exploring the world of creativity I experienced the calm and release of tension that can naturally occur through creative expression and childlike playfulness.

It can happen while journalling to process, dancing with my kids, noticing the feel of grass under my feet or the colours, textures and internal calm while creating a new painting.

Whether using art, music, writing, sensory materials, pretend play or another creative outlet… I’m excited to partner with you in your goals and personal wellness.

My roots go back to one of the best spots in BC, the Okanagan Valley (we still visit it every year!) I left home to study at Bible College in Saskatchewan and eventually married my best friend, Nori, and settled in Alberta. It’s been 4 years since we moved back to BC with our girls and we couldn’t be more thrilled to call Port Alberni, HOME!
