Melanie Konynenberg, RCC

I have had the privilege of supporting children, youth, and adults in both community and private practice clinical counselling settings. I have worked at OSNS as a behavior interventionist in the autism intervention program, One Sky Community Resources, various schools, and Penticton Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts. Therapeutic experiences include the support of trauma, depression, grief and loss, anxiety, autism, ADHD, parenting, spirituality, and relationships. Music-integrated therapy is available.

I am an EMDR trained therapist, with additional training in recent events protocol and EMDR for children. I have completed trauma-focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, emotionally focused therapy for individuals level 1 certification, ADHD certification training: supporting neurodiverse clients, emotion-focused therapy for families, and Gottman levels one and two for couples. I also completed an ACT intensive course and Trauma Treatment Certification (EMDR, CBT, and somatic-based interventions for trauma work).

Therapy from a Christian perspective and autism services are available upon request.
