Joasia Crawford BA MC CCC offers nature based, in-person and online counselling sessions. She works with individuals, couples and families, counselling on a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief and loss, family issues and other life transitional issues. She is a Registered Counsellor with the Canadian Counselling Psychotherapy Association and feels privileged to be invited to sit with people in the best and worst times of their lives.
As a therapist, she is grounded and real. She helps clients feel safe and nurtured as they untangle the complexities of life. She is here to help you “navigate” this new landscape with the focus being on growth and change. This is an opportunity for you to gain a better understanding of yourself, learn new skills to navigate everyday challenges, and improve your well-being. Life is too short to hide issues and challenges. Give your feelings space to breathe so you can feel, deal and heal.
Her approach in therapy is collaborative and grounded in acceptance, truthfulness, openness, and humour. She believes the work to be done together as client and therapist is grounded in the relationship that is built together in therapy and that the work must align with the client’s resilience and uniqueness. When people feel listened to and understood, the groundwork is set for growth.
It’s true that we can’t help but be shaped by our relationships and experiences, especially ones resulting from our childhood, which means that current patterns of behaviour and emotions can originate from our past. Joasia is of the belief that the past plays into the present but does not need to dictate the client’s future. She will help you uncover things in order to cultivate growth and learning. She will be your anchor and guide you on a path of healing, growth and transformation.
From her earliest memories she has always been drawn to helping people. She found early on that she has an ability to get people to question, reflect and challenge their attitudes and beliefs - recognizing there is no right or wrong but simply the uncovering of people’s personal truths. She can honestly say it is an honour for her to take part in the transformation of client’s lives.
