Elicia Hennebury

About Elicia

Elicia Hennebury is a Registered Clinical Counsellor located in Victoria, British Columbia. She offers in-person and online counselling to adult clients.

Elicia uses a holistic lens to address client concerns, understanding that every individual exists at a unique intersection of contexts and identities (e.g. cultural, historical, familial, racial, sexual, gender, ability, economic, etc.) which influence our experience and perception of the world.

Acknowledging this diversity, Elicia positions each client as the expert in their own life and healing. She believes each of us have within us a natural inclination to heal and she works with her clients to increase their self-understanding and compassion, uncover their personal strengths and sources of healing, and achieve their personal goals for health and wellbeing.

Using a trauma-informed, integrative and relational approach to therapy, Elicia understands challenges through the lenses of attachment and systems theory. Her style is warm, empathetic and non-judgemental, and her work with clients is collaborative and built upon mutual trust. Attentive to the specific needs and preferences of each individual client, Elicia integrates therapeutic techniques from various evidence-based modalities, including emotion-focused, somatic, mindful self-compassion, and cognitive behavioral therapies.

As a mother of three and a registered midwife (currently non-practicing), Elicia is well-equipped to offer support to clients who are struggling with issues arising during the perinatal period (fertility, loss, pregnancy and birth, postpartum, transition to parenting, etc.). Elicia also offers support to clients who may be struggling with concerns related to anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, relationships, family of origin, attachment injury, identity, sexuality, gender orientation, boundary setting, guilt and shame, low self-esteem, and goal-setting.

Elicia offers a free 15-minute introductory phone consultation during which you can ask questions and determine whether she may be a good fit for you.
