My name is Andrea Zimmering, and I am a pre-registered counsellor in the process of becoming a Registered Clinical Counsellor. As a pre-registered counsellor, I have completed over 250 clinic hours and over 80 hours of clinical supervision. I am also a Certified Meditation Teacher and Certified Holistic Nutritionist.
As your therapist my focus is on making you feel comfortable and at ease while in session. In a session I will work collaboratively with you to establish meaningful insights and solutions to your present challenges.
In my therapeutic practice I use an integrative approach, meaning I combine different therapeutic tools to fit the needs of each individual client. Common areas of exploration in session will include values, internal and external resources, self-talk, goal setting and the impact of the many systems in your life.
I have experience working with a diverse range of individuals with varying challenges. My clients which include adults, couples, and youth, come to me wanting support in areas such as:
Anxiety and Depression
Life transitions / adjustments
Relationship concerns
Self-confidence and self-esteem
Career exploration and workplace challenges
Body Image and disordered eating
I come to this line of work passionate about providing support to individuals seeking change and growth. I strive to show up with integrity in my work and ensure that my clients feel seen, heard, and safe to show up authentically as they are throughout the counselling process.
I am honoured and look forward to working with you.
Please note that as a pre-registered counsellor, I am able to offer lower fee sessions ($100 beginning May 1, 2023) . My receipts currently show my supervisor’s license information for insurance claims. If you are covered by extended medical for counselling, please check with your insurance provider to see if you will be covered prior to booking. Feel free to reach out and ask any questions you may have.
I am available for free 15 minute phone consultations.
