Emotion Education 101™

An 8 week Virtual Group

Want to learn how to navigate your emotions to have
a deeper connection with yourself and others?

Welcome.

You can learn the skills to be more open and present to your feelings.

 

Learned Patterns

As children, many of us were taught to ignore or repress our emotions. And as adults, we were never given a basic education on how our emotions work.

This can show up in our adult lives as:

  • Being hijacked by big emotions that seem to come out of nowhere

  • Using logic or distraction to repress emotions

  • Difficulty connecting deeply with others

  • Unsure how to feel or how to share emotions with others

  • Experiencing low mood, anxiety or aloneness

Even though you may know
your emotions need
attention, you may think:

“Better to put aside feelings for now.”

“Am I doing this right?”

“I want to feel more open and less reactive, but I wish there was a roadmap!”

 

What if there was a roadmap
to walk you through how to
navigate your emotions?

A roadmap that could make
your life more fulfilling and
more connected to those you love.

 

Hi, my name is Laura and I am a Counsellor living and working in North Vancouver, BC.

I know emotions can be difficult AND I hold a passionate belief that emotions are our wise teachers. The trick is to learn how to navigate them.

This is why I offer Emotion Education 101™!

Over the time I’ve facilitated this group, I more and more believe in the power of group work. I’ve seen people support one another and learn skills that they can take into their lives.

Welcome to Emotion Education 101™
An 8-week virtual group

January 21st 10- 11:30am pst- March 11th, 2024

This is for you if you are looking for a group that supports you to navigate emotions in order to land into a calmer, grounded, authentic self. All you need is the willingness - these skills can be learned. Plus being in a group with others creates accountability and inspiration!

We will meet virtually once a week for 90 minutes. Meetings are a combination of learning and group sharing. A group process accelerates your growth and decreases aloneness.

We will work the Change Triangle tool (based on the book It’s Not Always Depression by Hillary Jacobs-Hendel) as a way to listen to the body, discover our emotions and land into our open-hearted vital self.

Think of this group as a practicing ground to navigate emotions and then bring that to your life and relationships. Even if you don’t usually share with others, this group is a low-pressure opportunity to try something new and do something good for yourself.

I  invite you to book a free no-obligation 20 minute consultation to determine if this group is a fit for you.

I look forward to you joining us!

Individual Therapy

Not sure if a group is right for you? Individual counselling is another option. In counselling you have the opportunity to have a space for you, where you can share with someone not in your life, gain new perspective and new ways of being.

My aim is for you to have an experience in counselling that feels right and in alignment toward your direction or hopes for yourself. People often describe feeling lighter, and more open and understanding themselves and others better. Symptoms such as anxiety, uncontrolled anger, depression and other challenges are also helped in a counselling context.

Your connection with your Counsellor is key for successful outcomes. For that reason, I offer a free virtual 20 minute consultation to meet and see if we are a fit to work together.

I also invite you to view the video below to get a better sense for me and how I work. You can also view my bio here.

I look forward to meeting you!
