Hi, I am Chyanne! I hold my master’s in counselling psychology through Yorkville University and am currently a non-registered professional member of the CCPA, awaiting registration. I feel that it is such an honour to be allowed to share in someone’s journey and feel that beautiful things grow from vulnerability. I am passionate about exploring both the collective and very unique experiences we live through. I have chosen to pursue counselling with the hopes of building meaningful connections with my clients, reinforcing that you are not alone, and helping to develop the skills you need to manage the ups and downs of life.

I would describe myself as approachable, passionate, driven, and optimistic. I counsel from a trauma-informed perspective, understand the value of client empowerment, and pride myself in engaging in open and authentic communication. I have worked with adults, teens, and children, as well as having personal experience with depression and PTSD. I do my best in making uncomfortable conversations comfortable.

I have my Bachelors of Arts from Simon Fraser University with a joint major in psychology and criminology. Outside of counselling, I have four years of mental health experience, including working with children with Autism-Spectrum Disorder, and adults who struggle with personality, mood, psychotic, and substance use disorders. I have also worked closely with those who have been deemed not criminally responsible due to mental disorders (NCRMD). I am very eager to begin working in a private practice setting at Aster Wellness.

My spare time is typically spent outside with my daughter, partner, and our dog Stevie. Getting some fresh air, being active, and enjoying the beautiful BC scenery always improves my mental health and help me reset. I look forward to connecting with you and working collaboratively together to reach your goals.
