Rebecca has been practicing Social Work in both non profit, clinical and therapeutic settings for over 18 years with people of all ages. Rebecca has had the privilege of working with various vulnerable populations and has been rewarded by learning through their resiliency, knowledge and strength. Rebecca enjoyed working as a counselor at BC Children’s hospital for 8 years in the psychiatric inpatient programs for children and youth ages 5-17. Using Cognitive Behavior Therapy, crisis management intervention and trauma informed support counseling has been rewarding and inspiring. Working from a biopsychosocial and neurodiversity affirming framework, has best informed Rebecca’s counseling practice.
Establishing excellent therapeutic relationships and having a strong knowledge of our healthcare system and community resources are some of Rebecca’s strongest skills.
After moving back to Victoria 10 years ago and becoming a mother, Rebecca has worked as a Case Manager in outpatient services, as well as in a hospital setting for over seven years counseling and advocating for elders in long term care. Rebecca is looking forward to counseling and helping advocate and navigate systems for individuals and families that help improve overall quality of life.
