About Me
Welcome to Dante Family Tree Counselling Services. I’m Caterina Ferraro, a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), and it’s a privilege to connect with you!
Life often presents challenges that can feel overwhelming to face alone. That’s why I’m here—to provide compassionate guidance and support as you navigate life’s complexities.
At Dante Family Tree Counselling Services, we offer a range of therapeutic services, including individual counselling, couples therapy, and family support across the Lower Mainland of BC.
Whether you’re seeking to strengthen relationships, navigate life’s challenges, or gain clarity and confidence, we are here to support you every step of the way.
Taking the first step toward counselling may feel daunting, but it’s a courageous and empowering act of self-care. Together, we’ll work toward finding your peace, building balance, and creating the fulfilling life you deserve. Let’s take this journey together.
Primary Goal
In our counselling sessions, our primary focus is establishing a genuine connection built on trust and safety. Creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment where your thoughts and emotions are valued, understood, and validated.
Together, we will explore strategies to enhance self-awareness, build resilience, and promote personal growth. By developing practical skills such as effective communication, conflict resolution, and self-empowerment, collaboratively working toward achieving your goals and embracing a healthier, more fulfilling life.
Treatment Focus
My approach to counselling is holistic and inclusive. I use a blend of evidence-based techniques tailored to your specific needs, including:
Person-Centered Therapy: Providing empathy, non-judgment, and unconditional positive regard, creating a supportive environment for your growth.
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Addressing thought patterns and behaviours to promote positive change.
- Mindfulness: The practice of meditation and deep breathing exercises, grounding you in the present moment.
- Walk and Talk Therapy: Integrating the healing beauty of nature into the therapy sessions, promoting a calming and therapeutic environment. (depending on clients comfort level).
- Faith-Based Counselling (Optional): Providing a faith-based approach for those seeking spiritual support and guidance.
These approaches are tailored to help individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, relational issues, and grief/loss.
