Everyone Has A Story.
About me
Adrienne Foster
My name is Adrienne, and I'm a Vancouver-based Counsellor who offers individual and couples therapy.
I believe healing is a collaborative venture; you can expect to find in me a therapist that is compassionate, non-judgmental and transparent. My approach is one that uses curiosity to explore, understand and appreciate you wholly - your unique story. Together in this therapeutic exploration, we will interchange the views of ‘learner’ and ‘expert’ to better understand and appreciate one another in creating a safe and supportive connection.
I incorporate various therapeutic approaches, all of which hold clients in the highest regard. Narrative Therapy is an approach that I have found offers supporting clients in building positive relationships and alleviating problematic concerns. This therapeutic approach works to uncover ‘problem stories’ that can often find us stuck in one narrative. Through this respectful approach, we explore other possibilities, other outcomes and the development of a more positive narrative – providing the freedom to move forward.
I have over 15 years of experience working and volunteering within the LGBTTQI, BIPOC and other diverse communities.
I have had tremendous privilege, opportunity and vast experience counselling clients in the areas of mental health wellness, specifically addressing sex and sexuality, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, grief/loss, and substance / behavioural concerns.
