Claire Weiss, MA, RCC

I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor with a professional focus on addictions, trauma, anxiety/depression, and my life has been devoted to helping people recover from painful relationships and other difficult life circumstances.  I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from University of Victoria, and a Master's degree in Counselling Psychology from Trinity Western University.
 
I offer a holistic and integrative approach to counselling which highlights empowerment and healing; my priority is to treat the whole person, with emphasis on bringing all parts into balance. In my work I draw from attachment-based therapies including emotion-focused therapy, internal family systems, and somatic therapies; my approach is inclusive, progressive, and evidence-based.
 
Through my own personal and extensive professional experience, I have a deep understanding and appreciation for how complicated, messy, and challenging life can be, and I consider it a great privilege to love and support other people in my work as a counsellor.  With a warm and compassionate presence, I provide a safe and confidential space where clients can work through personal challenges towards emotional, mental, and physical, and spiritual wellness
 
My experience has included serving clients and the general public as:
  • Graduate Program Course Instructor - Addictions Counselling; Psychedelic Psychotherapy
  • Supervisor of Student Counselling Services at a private post-secondary institution in Abbotsford BC.
  • Clinical Addictions Counsellor at a world-class residential addiction treatment facility in Koh Chang, Thailand
  • Program Director of a private women's residential addiction treatment facility
  • A frequent presenter of professional development seminars and workshops, speaking at community agencies in areas of addiction, anxiety, trauma, and healthy relationships
  • Public motivational speaker on living well in long-term recovery
  • Advisory Board Member of a private addiction treatment and life skills academy
