Time change and cloudy days had me feeling real low and getting antsy about the settling in of Seasonal Affective Disorder...
Then the sun came out and I had a good day and confirmed that I am, in fact, just a complicated plant.

To be fair, seasonal depression is complex and annoying and if you struggle with it, you are not alone. 🌱☀️

Besides sunlight, what gets you through the dark and dreary?
Here's mine:
🧡 Lighting candles
🧡 Embracing cozy: blankets, loungewear, slippers
🧡 Connecting with people, even if I feel like hibernating
🧡 Hot, scalding showers
🧡 A little extra chocolate
🧡 Moving my body in joyful ways
🧡 Walking to and from work
🧡 Plugging in my "sad lamp"
🧡 Reading chick-lit beach reads

🙋‍♀️Richelle here!

I haven't posted much lately because...well...social media isn't the main focus of my practice - you are!
Client-centred care means that as your therapist, I'm continually growing, learning, and reflecting. In the past several months I have completed certification in a variety of perinatal mental health specific trainings, including:
🧡 Birth and Reproductive Trauma certificate from
🧡 Perinatal Grief and Loss certificate from
🧡 IFS for Perinatal Populations from CPMHT
🧡 Relational Cultural Therapy for Perinatal Populations from CPMHT

I'm also signed up - and so stoked - for the Perinatal Collective's online conference this November!

Because when I say I "get it" - you can rest assured that I do AND I have the clinical training to back it up.

Specialization in all things perinatal (fertility, TTC, pregnancy, postpartum, and new parenthood) means you can expect quality care in this journey.

Happy Birthday, Peach Door Counselling!

Today marks THREE years since I started my clinical counselling practice in rural, small town Nakusp as a sole practitioner, in the laundry room of a small shared clinic space (yes, my partner and I converted a laundry room into a therapy space...), wondering if I'd get "enough" clients to sustain the business.

Three years later, I enjoy working alongside a fabulous colleague, Brittany MacCuspic, RSW and we see a *nearly* full (somehow we always manage to fit new clients in) caseload of clients from an office with a big window, in the newly renovated Nakusp Integrated Health building. 🧡 🍑🧡

I found my team, my space, my clients, my niche (hello, perinatal population), and genuinely look forward to working. So, a HUGE thank you to everyone who chose Peach Door Counselling for their mental health and therapy needs. We couldn't be here without you.

And now, after a full day of 6 clients, I'm off to celebrate 3 years of owning my own practice with a creamcicle 🍦

Settling in nicely to the new therapeutic space and seeing clients for the first time in here 🧡

It also feels good to be part of something bigger like the Nakusp Integrated Health Inc clinic. In an all too often individualistic society, it's a breath of fresh air to lean into a village model and the loving embrace of a collective.

Be sure to come check out the new clinic and see how all of our practitioners can support your wellness needs!

NEW LOCATION!

Peach Door Counselling has moved (along with the whole Nakusp Integrated Health Inc clinic) and we are THRILLED with how the new counselling space has shaped up.
🧡
Our new therapy space is bigger, boasts natural light with a real window (with privacy screening of course), temperature control, and options for seating to now better host couples and families. With the pending addition of some more living plants and some art for the green wall, we think it's pretty much perfect.
Book your in-person session soon or drop by to check it out!
