At Balanced Life Counselling we are registered counsellors who have worked in the social services field for over 15 years.We work with adults, youth and children. We have recently been trained by Dr. Kevin Miller in Mind-Body Attunement therapy which is the modality in which we practice. Mind -Body Attunement therapy is a somatically based therapy that works with a person's central nervous system to reprocess past traumas and teach the nervous system to arrive at a state of calm where the mind and body are attuned and have access to a range of coping strategies. For more detailed information see balancedlifecounselling.org/. We offer a free half hour consultation to determine suitability of therapy and counsellor.
H. Jane Wakefield is a psychologist, practicing in the Vernon area for over 40 years. For the past 25 years I have specialized in the treatment of trauma survivors including those with complex intergenerational trauma, complex trauma, and those who suffered child abuse of all kinds. While I no longer treat children, my knowledge of child development as well as transactional analysis, hypnotherapy, dissociative disorders and of all the new trauma techniques (some of which I developed, and some of which I pioneered in the province) means that I bring a huge amount of information and clinical expertise to my work. I am trained in all the so-called letter therapies or trauma techniques including EMDR, TFT, EFT, EdxTM, OEI, VK/D, TAT, and MPTAT, and I have access to a neurofeedback therapist. I do limited work with couples, with those with depression and anxiety, and addictions. I believe that people have within them the capacity to heal & my job is to help unlock this.
