About Danika
** Accepting New Clients! EMDR & Attachment Focused Therapy**
Hi, I’m Danika! I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor offering in-person therapy in West Kelowna and virtual counselling throughout BC.
I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up as you are, without having to have everything figured out first. My approach is warm, curious, collaborative, and grounded in the understanding that the ways we’ve learned to cope, connect, and move through life often developed for a reason.
Together, we can explore the experiences that have shaped you, make sense of patterns that may no longer be serving you, and create space for something different.
From me, you can expect compassion, deep listening, curiosity, and probably some humour! But we’re also going to *do* something with what we discover. Insight is important, but understanding why something happens doesn’t always change how it feels.
My approach is integrative, drawing from EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFIT/EFCT), parts-informed and attachment-based therapy, ACT, DBT, and mindfulness. Rather than fitting you into one particular approach, I adapt our work to your needs, goals, and where you are in the process.
I often support my clients with concerns such as childhood trauma, anxiety and panic, phobias, grief and loss, shame, self-worth, attachment wounds, and difficult life experiences. I also offer neurodiversity-affirming ADHD support and welcome clients of diverse identities, sexual orientations, and relationship structures, including LGBTQ2S+ individuals.
Outside of the therapy room, you’ll likely find me enjoying the outdoors, reading, or spending time with the people I love, including navigating the wonderful (and often messy!) experience of motherhood.
Additional Trainings: EMDR Trauma Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, CBT-M, DBT, Grief and Loss, Strengths-based ADHD support, Emotion Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT).
Fee: $165 individual, $185 couples.
