Trish Wolton, RPC

Meet Trish

I am experienced working with families and couples who have experienced relationship issues, unhealthy family dynamics, trauma, depression, and anxiety.  I have completed Level 1 and 2 of the Gottman Method Couples Therapy, where the goals are to disarm conflicting verbal communication; increase intimacy, respect, and affection; remove barriers that create a feeling of stagnancy; and create a heightened sense of empathy and understanding within the context of the relationship.

Navigating life can be challenging if we don’t understand what’s working and what isn’t.  I am here to help you get to the root of the issue so you can change direction in your life to be healthy and content.  I believe that collaboration and trust are essential to our working relationship – you are the expert on your life, and I am here to help you facilitate change, progress, and awareness into the issues you are facing. 
​
Being seen and understood forms the cornerstone of any thriving relationship.  At times, the lines of communication may become tangled and challenging to untangle.  I provide a safe environment where you can openly address complex matters.

I am born and raised in Nanaimo.  When I’m not busy with work, you’ll likely find me enjoying the great outdoors.  I love camping and exploring the natural beauty of our region.  Gardening is another passion of mine, where I find peace and fulfillment in nurturing plants and watching them grow.  At home, I share my life with the two wonderful dogs who keep me active and entertained.  I’m committed to making a positive impact in my community and cherish every opportunity to connect with my neighbors, friends, and fellow residents.
