RE-CONNECTING
MIND and BODY,
HEART and SOUL
"We change the way we feel by becoming aware of our inner experience and learning to befriend what is going on inside ourselves" -Bessel A. Van Der Kolk
Meet Christine

Christine Houtman, RTC
Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Hello! I am a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC #2133) living in beautiful BC Canada.
​
​I work holistically with individuals and couples and my sessions connect mental health, past trauma, emotions and the body. In session, YOU are the focus as we work towards transformation and well-being so that you can experience the fullness of life. My goal is to create a space that feels safe for you to share and explore yourself in a new way and therefore feel re-connected to yourself and your body.
There are many reasons why you may feel disconnected from yourself. It may be that you are busy with the many demands of life, or a traumatic event has left you not being able to trust others or an illness has made you lose faith in your own body. When things like this happen, you can lose the ability to listen to your body, you may have trouble trusting or even sensing that "gut feeling"you once had. You may lose touch with yourself and your passion for life. This can bring so much anxiety that you feel like your days are spent just 'surviving' and not thriving!

Christine was an essential part of my healing journey. Her generous compassion and intuitive intelligence offered me both the safe container I needed to open up wounds I had long repressed and equally empowered me to release and rise up beyond them. She is one of a kind, a gift to my heart and those privileged to be counselled by her.
