Cathleen Dyer
Master of Education in Counselling Psychology
Certified Canadian Counsellor
Cathleen is a Certified Canadian Counsellor (CCC) with a Master of Education in Counselling Psychology from the University of Victoria. With almost two decades of experience in both private and public clinics, Cathleen (she/her) now practices exclusively with Jericho Counselling.
Cathleen believes that awareness is one of the keys to change. Working with that awareness, Cathleen helps clients to better understand connections to behaviours, past and present, which then increases their ability for multiple perspective taking. From there, Cathleen guides clients to explore adapting to our ever-changing world in the pursuit of growth and healing. She offers a safe and nurturing environment that affords the freedom to explore and bring focus to whatever clients want to let go of and what they want to bring forward in their lives. In a collaborative framework, Cathleen works with clients, using a network of approaches and concepts she has adopted over her professional career, most especially those approaches that resonate with each client. Through this collaboration, Cathleen guides a process of arriving at a path that helps clients manage and express themselves in meaningful ways, both internally and externally.
Cathleen has deep experience in the areas of trauma and addiction, as well as supporting clients challenged by ADHD. Additionally, Cathleen is comfortable working with anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief and loss, as well as relational struggles and personal growth goals. She has worked with clients ranging from their late teens and well into their ‘golden years’ and primarily works with individuals. Cathleen considers all of the elements that go into creating clients’ identities, including their own cultural backgrounds as well as the multicultural world of today. For her, this is part of the essence of what it means to be human and a crucial part of the counselling relationship.
Cathleen provides counselling services in English.
