Mrs. Leila Coulibaly

Master's degree in Psychology
Years in practice: 20
Offers:  Remote Therapy

I provide Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for adults and adolescents experiencing symptoms due to traumatic, distressful events in childhood and/or adulthood. Feeling overwhelmed or stuck prevents you from living in the present moment. EMDR, as a comprehensive therapy, can help unlock traumatic memories trapped in the brain. Symptoms such as panic attacks, phobias, flashbacks, depression, and anxiety can affect our level of functionality, and the way we relate to ourselves and others in daily life, work, home, and school. Take the next step to your wellness! I look forward to hearing from you!

MA in Counselling

I am a trilingual registered counsellor from Hong Kong, and I practice in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. My interest in becoming a counsellor came from my experience of witnessing a close family member suffering from schizophrenia, along with my own struggles with anxiety and self-esteem.

Over the years, I integrated my training and these many experiences to help me relate to a wide range of individuals and the different circumstances they bring to me. I am good at helping my clients connect on a deeper level to themselves so that they can respond and not just react. I also help clients describe their inner world of emotions in a way that finally makes sense to them so that they can get unstuck.

My name is Kristen, I work from a trauma informed & intersectional feminist lens, recognizing the influence gender, sexuality and socio-economic status and culture can have on our experiences. I am passionate to work with men as I believe that feminism is for everybody, and men are also harmed by the harms of patriarchy, toxic masculinity and gender norms/expectations. I am an lgbtq2s+ and poly-friendly/ethical-non monogamy counsellor and am very enthusiastic about challenging heteronormative culture.

In addition to the framework I have shared, I also hold additional training in:
– EMDR
– Internal Family Systems (IFS)
– Psychedelic Integration & Embodied Inquiry
– Gottman (relationship therapy)

Feel free to reach out via email for a consultation.

I have been working with adult individuals and couples for over 10 years now. My practice focuses on existential humanistic therapy, compassionate counselling for those suffering grief, loss, pain, and isolation. Ultimately, the main goal is to discover one’s meaning and develop it to build more strength and confidence to achieve other goals. Many of my clients are men suffering depression, some even contemplating suicide. I use cognitive behavioural therapy to assist them in analyzing and coordinating their thoughts, behaviours, and actions into more effective and satisfying lives. I work online and by telephone with Canadian clients in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as the Territories. Remote therapy only.

In my practice, I support clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, ​grief, stress, trauma, ADHD, and exhaustion. Life can be hard sometimes and my clients often tell me that they have so much going on in their lives that they’re struggling to manage their emotions. Many of my clients identify themselves as being helpers, healers, caregivers, entrepreneurs, advocates, and empaths and are having a hard time finding balance in their lives. If you’re tired of managing alone and want to find some peace or clarity in your life, or simply want to feel better emotionally, you’ve come to the right place.

My approach is solution focused and client centred. It’s important to listen to the client’s story and work on solutions together. I have used the ACT model (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) which uses CBT and mindfulness to help build healing skills and work on past traumas. It’s important to note that everyone is different, there is hope, and that it takes such courage to be here asking for help.

Through my work, I realized how much pressure people experienced in their day-to-day lives and the effects this had on their relationship with themselves and others. Through my therapeutic work, I observed the consequences of society placing such a strong emphasis on perfectionism, a hyper-vigilance on “fixing” oneself, and external merit. Seeing adults, teens, and children struggling to understand their identity, self-worth, and values motivated me to gain expertise in various therapeutic modalities. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, and trauma, self-worth, identity, and relationships, and narrative as well as mindfulness approaches.
