Courtney Collingwood, RCC

care. She draws from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), person-centered therapy, somatic

approaches, narrative therapy, and incorporating mindfulness-based practices to support awareness,

emotional regulation, and self-compassion. Courtney is also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization

and Reprocessing (EMDR), which she may use when it feels appropriate and aligned with each client’s

goals.

Courtney works with a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, stress, life transitions, identity

exploration, and the impact of past or ongoing difficult experiences. While she supports people from

many walks of life, she has further experience working with young adults as well as individuals living

with persistent pain. At the same time, she avoids a one-size-fits-all approach. Therapy is always tailored

to each person’s unique context, strengths, and values.

She views therapy as a process of building a different kind of relationship with thoughts, emotions, and

the body - one that allows for greater flexibility, resilience, and choice. Whether someone is feeling

stuck, overwhelmed, or simply looking for a space to better understand themselves, Courtney aims to

meet them with curiosity, care, and authenticity.

Courtney is registered with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors.
