Registered Art Therapist  

Focusing Oriented Therapist
Registered Clinical Counsellor

Karen Coulombe  is a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Registered Art Therapist and Certified Focusing Oriented Therapist who works with children, adolescents and adults in her North Vancouver art studio. 

Karen uses her training in Art Psychotherapy,  Focusing-Oriented Therapy, Dream work and Play Therapy  to help those who are dealing with anxiety, depression, anger, loss, life transitions, or who need some support to work through an upset, event, decision, situation, conflict or concern.

ART THERAPY offers a powerful way to communicate thoughts, emotions, elements and aspects of experiences that words alone are unable to access. FOCUSING ORIENTED ART THERAPY  and DREAMWORK augments the art therapy process by tapping into your body's inner knowing and inherent wisdom, so that you can guide your own healing process. The better understanding you have of your bodily senses, feelings, and ideas, the better you are able to know what you want and need as you navigate through life. PLAY THERAPY allows children to play out how they feel and provides then with the opportunity to experience feeling secure with self-exploration, autonomous decision making, self-in-relation-to-another, self-expansion, self-control and self-expression. 

Karen provides in-person, on line and teleconference services depending on client preference and need.
