Ms Emily Baum
Registered Counselor
“Hello, I'm Emily, a Registered Clinical Counsellor, EMDR certified and trained trauma therapist. I work with individuals and couples to do emotional first aid, offering immediate support in seasons of difficulty or crisis while also facilitating the cultivation of positive new coping and communication skills.”
About Me
I understand that difficult seasons can feel overwhelming. I support individuals and couples, offering immediate emotional first aid to ease distress. We work together to build practical coping and communication skills, including specific techniques from the Gottman Method. This approach helps you navigate crises with greater clarity, finding resilience and a way forward.
Approach
When distress feels immediate, I move quickly to create a steady, paced space where small shifts matter—short check-ins set the scene, then we map what’s urgent and what can wait. Sessions in Vancouver or online are practical and focused: pairing breath and grounding with targeted skill-practice, occasional between-session exercises, and attention to relationship patterns when couples join. Trauma-informed pacing guides choices so nervous systems feel contained while new communication habits are rehearsed. This approach suits folks seeking clear, hands-on support through crisis and change.
