Some of the many methods of counselling

The aim of just about all forms of counseling is to bring the unconscious into consciousness and it seems that all of the modalities or types of counseling eventually 'get there', although they might use very different routes.

Many counselors use a blend of several different forms of counseling which may be drawn from what they personally believe mixed with what works well for them - a sensible idea because what works best for the counselor almost certainly works best for his clients. A good level of comfort for the counselor with the therapy being used will result in a more successful experience for clients.

Here are descriptions of many of the different modalities of counseling - if you want to add one that's been missed, please feel welcome to email me with your article which I will read, perhaps edit and print. I am happy, of course, to credit you (if you choose - or to use 'anonymous') and link to your website.

Whichever method of counselling you choose, I wish you a good experience.

    Stuart, 2010 Victoria BC I had reached a point in my life where I felt as though I had hit a dead end, smothered in self-doubt and pity. I felt as though no one could hear my story and understand me, let alone make sense of it and unearth the roots of my issues. Not only was Julie nonjudgemental and receptive, but she was genuinely empathetic. She was patient and polite, and she wasn't pushy.

    The results were fairly dramatic, and in a few short weeks I felt as though I had made vast progress. I was so impressed, and so pleased with the results, that I have referred my friends, and will continue to do so! Thank you Julie, for understanding and hope. Stuart, BC

    Nikki, 2010 BC Many, many thanks for helping me to get through this whole year and find my way into the light. I will never forget everything you have done for me. I feel so fortunate to have found this wonderful relationship! Nikki, BC

    Steve, BC Hi Julie – thanks for an amazing session. I feel soooo much better. First unassisted peaceful sleep in a while. Stomach awfulness reduced greatly.  Great perspective and great realizations- work to do but now I can focus. Cheers and much appreciation. -S 2010

    Dominic, 2010 Nova Scotia Julie Taylor is one of the most inspiring individuals that I have ever met. Overcoming a life threatening trauma in her late 20’s, battling against all odds just to survive. This alone would make Julie a very remarkable person but, there is so much more to her story.

    Since I met Julie, I have become an ardent admirer of her keen intelligence, her forthright and honest approach to any task. She has a determination that I have rarely seen in others, seeing solutions to problems with an uncanny accuracy. She also possesses an abundance of common sense, loyalty, compassion and a willingness to help others. Add this all together and Julie makes a wonderful counsellor and a good friend. Dominic, Nova Scotia

    Ylva Kristen Julie Taylor has a wealth of grounded wisdom drawn from her life experiences and professional training. As a counsellor applying her education and experience, Julie addresses client's issues within a non threatening style of dialogue. The benefits of Julie's counsel are easily received, not so much due to what she offers from her own tool box, but because of her ability to point clients toward their own self development.

    Julie gently guides clients toward their own inner wisdom. In addition she assists clients to locate and utilize appropriate support systems and resources that are available to them, which they may not have previously been aware. Without reservation i recommend Julie Taylor as an excellent counsellor and an exceptional facilitator of support resources. Ylva Kristen Ellerbeck, BC 2009

    Jean, BC I have known Julie for many years and have found her to be the most loyal and honest person who would go to great lengths to help someone in need. She has a good brain and knows how to use it - she is also a people-friendly girl and knows how to get to the bottom of any particular problem. Nothing is pushed to the back burner! She knows where she's coming from and has great insight into where others may need help. Jean, BC 2008
