Carissa Stocco, RCC
Feeling heard and unconditionally accepted can help us feel safe while exploring vulnerable parts of ourselves. This can be especially important if the thoughts and feelings that live within our vulnerability prevent us from feeling like we deserve to grow and be at ease with ourselves. I therefore consider it a sincere honour to be able to sit with you as we navigate and process what brought you to counselling. Moreover, I find passion in collaborating with you on ways that we can challenge the thoughts and feelings that stifle your inner peace, self-acceptance, and hope.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors (BCACC). I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology degree from Yorkville University, as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Simon Fraser University. Initially I pursued psychology because I wanted to develop a deeper understanding of people. I therefore volunteered for several non-profit organizations both during and after my undergraduate studies. During my time as a volunteer, I worked with diverse people in socially and therapeutically supportive ways. These experiences evolved my love for learning about people into a love for listening to their stories. However, my previous volunteer work as a crisis line call-taker solidified my passion for playing an active role in supporting people therapeutically. It is now my honour to do this as a clinical counsellor.
While my approach to therapy is Person-Centered, I think about the person primarily from a Cognitive Behavioural lens. As such, I utilize related interventions, though I also integrate elements of Existential, Narrative, Gestalt, Mindfulness-Based, and Solution-Focused therapies as well. Regardless of how I conceptualize the person and their situation, I remain dedicated to personalizing the therapeutic experience by being flexible, collaborative, and affirming.
Here are some of the areas I can help you with:
- LGBTQIA+
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Boundaries
- Perinatal
- Self-Esteem
- Communication
- Life Transitions
- Stress
- Interpersonal Conflict
- Burnout
- Suicide
- Grief
- Identity
- Confidence
- Guilt and Shame
- Codependency
- Women’s Issues
