About Larrissa
We are deeply impacted and shaped in relationships. Being deeply seen, heard, and understood by another can be profoundly healing,
I am a graduate student completing my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy at Trinity Western University. I practice from an attachment-based, emotion-focused, trauma-informed, wholistic, and non-pathologizing perspective. I am excited to be an intern with Island Clinical Counselling, providing therapy to individuals, couples, and families of all ages facing various challenges.
I prioritize compassion and emotional attunement when walking alongside clients as they pursue healing and growth in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I desire to witness people experience restoration, hope, and flourishing in their lives here and now, believing people have the capability to experience change and thrive in their lives and relationships. Throughout my studies, I have particularly enjoyed studying Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, Satir Family Therapy, and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) and draw from these modalities in my practice. I have also gained hands-on experience and training in sand tray therapy with adults, adolescents, and children. I have personally experienced the power of having an attuned other walk alongside me in therapy and feel it is the greatest honour to be invited to journey alongside others.
Outside my work and pursuing studies, I love being outdoors (especially in the sunshine or by a body of water), buying flowers from local farm stands, travelling, spending time with my husband, family, and friends, and going for walks with my dog.
