Words to inspire and ponder...
"As long as we're breathing there is more right with us than wrong with us, no matter what we are facing" ~ Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction
"Focusing will enable you to find and change where your life is stuck, cramped, hemmed in, slowed down. And it will enable you to change– to live from a deeper place than just your thoughts and feelings." ~ Psychologist, Eugene Gendlin, developer and author of Focusing
“The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.” – Dorothy Parker
ABOUT JULIE
I’m Julie Giroux, M.Ed., RCC, a Registered Clinical Counsellor based in Victoria, British Columbia. Since 1993, I have worked in a variety of social service and health care roles providing specialized services to those dealing with challenging life experiences.
I graduated from the University of Toronto with both my Occupational Therapy and Counselling Psychology & Psychotherapy degrees. I have also completed the multi-year teacher training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
In recent years I have specialized my clinical practice in helping individuals heal from a wide range of traumatic experiences, chronic stress, anxiety, panic attacks, depression and insomnia. I help people get in touch with what matters most to them and develop more fulfilling and satisfying lives. I have in-depth training in Somatic Experiencing, EMDR (specifically: Attachment-Focused EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy and Focusing. Above all, I take an individualized approach to everyone I work with.
