Beth Trotter, MA
Registered Clinical Counsellor
Victoria BC
I work with creating a trusting and safe situation for clients for them to open to their own experience and understandings.
I do make use of particular techniques such as somatic experiencing, mindfulness and EMDR to assist.
I have been in private practice as a therapist in Victoria, BC for more than 30 years, with an emphasis on working with trauma.
I am interested in the intersection of the psychological and the spiritual and the role that altered states can play in psychedelic assisted psychotherapy. I am a long term student of the Diamond Approach, a psycho-spiritual school. And also a long term meditator and teacher of meditation. I introduced the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction in Victoria many years ago.
I have been facilitating prep sessions, psychedelic sessions and integration sessions for a few years and have experienced journeys myself.
