QUALIFICATIONS
I am a Counsellor with FreeMind Therapy, a Registered Social Worker, currently training in Rapid Resolution Therapy, with over 20 years of experience in mental health and counselling.

I hold a Bachelor of Social Work degree from the University of the Fraser Valley in BC, Canada, and I am a member of the BC Association of Social Workers.  I have extensive training in various evidence-based therapy modalities, plus 
60 hours of intensive classroom training in Rapid Resolution Therapy.  I specialize in relationships, abuse, attachment issues, child therapy, family therapy, addiction, sexual health, life transitions and parenting.  Currently, I am seeing adults, youth and parents/children (age range is based on consultation) for virtual therapy.
PHILOSOPHY OF PRACTICE
My intention for you is to help you live your best life possible, free of negative patterns, thinking, or behaviours, and to help you develop a better future with the tools and resources to succeed independently.  Over the years I have worked with many people and can truly say that my drive today, to see my clients thrive is just as strong as it was when I started.  I utilize a goal-oriented and compassion-based approach to counselling with a culturally sensitive, systems-lens, and bring both personal and professional experience to the table.  The approaches that inform my practice include Person-Centred Therapy, Family Systems, Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT), Satir Counselling, Adjustment Counselling, Play and Art Therapy, career coaching, personal development, Crisis Intervention, and Feminist Theory.

BACKGROUND
I have worked in the mental health field for many years, and am passionate about helping people resolve problems and achieve their personal goals.  I have experience supporting clients from a wide variety of socio-economic backgrounds, whether it's adults, children, adolescents, families, seniors, gender minorities, chronic illness, caregivers, pregnancy, or indigenous people.  I have experience as a counsellor in private practice, inpatient general psychiatry, adolescent psychiatry and education, outreach programs for child & infant wellness, the justice system, case management, community/outpatient mental health, and hospitals (critical care, emergency).  In my spare time, I enjoy being outdoors, gardening, traveling the world, and spending time with my children and grandchildren.

​TESTIMONIALS


​FOUND PEACE
"Sita helped me during a very dark time in my life. I felt like she didn't judge me and I felt safe to share things I would normally have felt uncomfortable sharing. I was able to find peace about some things I was carrying for a long time and I am so grateful for the time I she spent with me". (CHERYL)

FOUND DIRECTION
"I was struggling with direction in my life and having a hard time making decisions. The sessions were useful and gave me support to make some important personal decisions. I feel like I now have new tools to help myself be more decisive. I would recommend Sita for counselling". (JEFF)
