It takes a whole village to raise a child.
I aim to help families develop the necessary skills to promote healthy family dynamics.
With over a decade of experience, I help families navigate challenges with effective, evidence-based practices.
Jonie Gore ~ RPC
I work collaboratively with families to support cohesive connection and balance, providing strategies that align with their values. My relational and strengths-based approach encourages positive change and healthy family dynamics.
As a Kelty Mental Health & BC Children’s Hospital Parent Advisory Committee member, I am committed to addressing the mental health needs of children and families. I adapt my approach based on the needs of each family through online sessions, and modalities used may include: CBT, TF-CBT (Trauma-Focused CBT), the Gottman method, and more.
Specialized Areas of Focus:
Family Counselling
Jonie is currently accepting new clients.
