Healing Starts Here

Experienced Counsellor: Eating Disorders & Women's Issues

Counselling

A Beautiful Thing

It's a beautiful thing when we say, "no more," to the unhealthy cycles, to being stuck, overly anxious, controlled by food, or unkind to ourselves. When we say, "no more," something new is birthed, something new can begin.

 

You are here looking for counselling because you are looking for something that serves you better. You are looking for that beautiful you that exists beneath the pain, the confusion, the overwhelm, and the way these have hurt your relationship with yourself and others and stopped you from living.

 

Counselling gives you a place to slow down, pause, find guidance that assists you in laying the past to rest, managing better today and finding a more fulfilling life. One that is more truthful to you, that allows you to discover life skills, and your truthful yes and no, that are gateways to living.

I invite you to book a short complementary conversation or a first session. Please click the link below. I look forward to meeting.

Walk in nature
Karen Cook Counsellor

Who am I?

Living near mountains and lakes, I can be found walking down a trail with friends or family, sometimes a coffee/tea in hand, or  kayaking on the lake. I enjoy local music, art and food venues in my area, and have a handsome chill, black cat. In quieter moment, I write women's fiction and am a life long learner.

 

I am no different than you, I have faced my own life issues and found healing, so my counselling work is not just textbook, but real life understanding. I enjoy talking with a person about their life.  So much can go into the making of a life. Some of these things can undo us in ways, which can, I believe, be turned around to make our lives into something desirable and meaningful.  

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BCACC.  With a masters degree in Counselling Psychology, I have over twenty-five years of counselling experience in a private practice setting.  I specialize in working with eating disorders and women's issues , participate in on-going counselling education and meet with other therapists.

It's a privilege to hear people's stories and help them walk through their struggle, into a better place. Reach out to begin.
