Hello! My name is Sarah Holmgren and I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor. I have a Bachelor of Arts (with distinction) in Psychology, a Bachelor of Education, and a Master of Counselling degree. I am also a certified EMDR therapist.
I have spent the last 15 years working as a teacher and administrator in the public school system, during which time I realized my passion for supporting students, staff and families with the various challenges that life can bring.
I take an integrative, person-centered approach to therapy, which means we will work together to ensure therapy is a safe and effective experience.
I believe that everyone does well when they can, not when they want to, so my goal with clients to help them discover their best self.
When I am not supporting clients, I love creating and performing music, whether it be with choir, orchestra, or by writing and performing original songs at various venues around the province. I also love spending time outside, hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, skiing…anything that gets me moving in the fresh air!
I love working with children, teens and adults, and am offering in-person sessions Fridays and Saturdays. I will also be offering virtual sessions for more flexibility during the week.
