Tanya Trenhaile-Dive In Counselling

About me

Hi there. Trying to navigate through everyday life stressors like relational conflicts, body image and self-esteem issues, loss and mental health difficulties is tough enough already, and even more so through the added pressures of these unprecedented times we are living through. You don’t have to face these challenges alone. I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor and Licensed Counselling Therapist- Qualifying who is empathetic, authentic and non-judgmental and I’m available to offer supportive therapy using a holistic approach that will be best tailored to help you resolve your unique concerns. I have several years experience working with youth and young adults aged 13-40 which is often focused on treating depression, anxiety, low self-worth and ADHD symptoms, amongst an array of other emotional problems. I identify as neurotypical and enjoy bringing both my personal and clinical experience to helping those struggling with some of the executive dysfunction challenges this brings. I also have a special passion for supporting people through difficulties related to distress tolerance, emotional regulation, self-harming behaviours and suicidal ideation. Forging respectful, nurturing, and inclusive therapeutic bonds with my clients is my biggest priority as I’m a strong believer that feeling seen, heard, safe and accepted is a necessary foundation for all change. My approach to therapy is always client centered, strengths-based and collaborative- this means we go at your pace together to reach the goals that are most important to you. Through exploring your abilities and brainstorming solutions together, we can discover what changes or strategies will most positively impact your life and allow you to break free from maladaptive cycles. Learning positive coping strategies and self-compassion within a genuinely caring bond can help you strengthen the skills needed to create positive changes within yourself and I consider it a privilege to be trusted to help support you along your journey of healing and personal growth.
