Sarah Sovereign, R.C.C.
Hi! My name is Sarah (she/her) and I’m a neurodivergent registered clinical counsellor with the BCACC and artist living in Chilliwack, B.C. My counselling approach uses collaborative and narrative therapies, creative interventions & explorations and is inclusive & neuro-affirming. I’m here to walk alongside you as you unfold your stories.
I have an MC in Counselling from City University and a Visual Arts diploma from the University of the Fraser Valley. I offer in person sessions in Chilliwack and virtual sessions across B.C.
I’m so glad you’re here.
All things ADHD:
Whether you have a diagnosis, are navigating a late diagnosis, are without a formal diagnosis and/or questioning if you have ADHD, there’s space for you here. With a lot of knowledge especially around how ADHD presents in women and the intersection between Creativity and ADHD, my approach is neuro-affirming - and as a fellow person navigating ADHD and a late diagnosis, my approach is deeply compassionate and non-judgmental.
Stress, Anxiety & Burnout/Creative Burnout:
How do you navigate self compassion when the body says no? Including, but not limited to reconnecting to the creative heartbeat, stress, setting and celebrating boundaries and more. Whether you’re working as a creative, exploring creativity as a hobby/outlet, or need support around stress/burnout in general, you’re welcome here.
Journeying alongside grief:
Grief can be complex and deeply individual - I can walk alongside you where ever you are in your journey.
At this time, I offer counselling for adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, burnout, using therapies such as narrative, collaborative, and creative exploration.
