The Heart Behind Tide & Grove

Hello, Thank you for taking the taking the time to learn more about me and my journey as a student counsellor. My name is Pascale (she/her) I am based out of Spruce Grove, Alberta and currently preparing to graduate with a Diploma in Counselling from Rhodes Wellness College. I am deeply passionate about walking along side others in their healing journey. As past of my training, I am excited to begin pro-bono counselling sessions to individuals and couples who are open to engaging in a minimum of 5 weekly sessions. This is a wonderful opportunity to explore therapy in a supportive, low pressure way while contributing to my growth as a counsellor. 

Healing isn't something we "finish."It's  an ongoing, non-linear process that unfolds in layers, seasons and sometimes unexpected directions. I became a counsellor because I believe in the power of being truly seen and accompanied through messy, confusing or flat moments in life. 

I cherish those small glimmers, those gentle "aha" moments that show up when clients feel a shift; even when the weight of life still lingers. I feel honored to witness those moments and hold space for everything in between. These moments remind me that even in the darkest seasons, we can grow.

I am especially fascinated by how the body holds so much for our lived experience; how emotions, trauma and resilience live not only in our thoughts but also in our muscles, nervous system and breath.

I work from a client-centered and trauma-informed lens, believing that you are the expert of your own experience. My role is to offer reflection, curiosity, and care as you move through your own unfolding process. My counselling style is multi-modal, meaning I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches such as somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy & Rational Therapy. 

Thank you for being here and for considering this step on your journey. I'm honored to do this work and hold deep gratitude for each person I get to walk alongside with. I look forward to connecting and seeing where our paths might meet.

With Gratitude, Pascale Roy
