Lisa Steels

COUNSELLOR

Designation - RCC, MACP, C-IAYT

As a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Lisa specializes in supporting adults with understanding and processing stress or trauma. She strives to maintain a client-centered approach maintaining empathetic and compassionate listening with a collaborative approach.

Lisa encourages the client to gain a sense of feeling at home in their bodies so they can manage stress or challenges of life. She does this by teaching coping strategies and skills to help people process difficult emotions or to release any trauma held within the body. Lisa uses mindfulness practices as well as cognitive therapies to empower clients, allowing them to make choices from a more self-empowered place. Lisa’s employment as a paramedic and firefighter and volunteer search and rescue member, has informed how she perceives and manages trauma or crises. 

I am grateful to share this journey with you and humbled by the wisdom of the body.
