Student Counsellor

Melanie Claassen

As a counsellor, I aim to create an environment where you feel safe and comfortable to share any aspects about your identity, your life, beliefs or perspectives that feel right. I see you as the expert in your life, and I walk alongside you to assist you in reaching the goals you have for yourself. I practice within a person-centered approach and may utilize elements of CBT, systemic therapy, and mindfulness.

Student Counsellor

Jennifer Brum

I work collaboratively with my clients to meet their therapeutic goals at a comfortable pace. Together we explore thoughts, feelings, and perspectives until they find peace, clarity, and a way forward. I bring empathy, genuine care and compassion, and a strong commitment to ethical practice. My approach is non-judgmental, integrative, and person-centered, incorporating trauma-informed, strengths-based, and solution-focused practices.

Student Counsellor (currently full)

Beverly Bouma

I believe every person can heal, adapt, and grow into their full potential. Having a guide to this important work can accelerate the process and open up new ways of being. I will help you leverage your skills and strength, and find new insights and tools that benefit your present and future self. I am inspired by various therapies including psychodynamic, emotions-focused, mindfulness/self-compassion, AEDP, existential, CBT, solutions-focused, and narrative therapy.
