Keegan Baulkham (He/Them)

I love working with Nature. I am a trained Nature-Based Therapist and adore being outside (I do work indoors/online as well!); we learn so much from our environment and believe that immersing ourselves in Nature provides endless therapeutic benefits. I have many extended and specialized training, which are integrated into our therapy sessions, including: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focussed Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Narrative Therapy. We will use techniques, skills, and resources from these modalities to create awareness of current reality through exploring past experiences and future worries, while navigating the biological, psychological, social, spiritual, and ecological impact these experiences have on us. We challenge thought, behaviour, and emotional cycles, connect you with what you value most, develop emotion regulation-, mindfulness-, communication-, and distress tolerance-skills, and give your experiences meaning. This, in turn, will create long lasting connections to yourself, the your inherent purpose, and those you cherish most. Ultimately, I teach skills to live a life worth living. Life is a ride that has many ups and downs, sometimes it gets really hard; that's okay. In our sessions, I will hold the space you need to reflect on life the way you need. This is for you and want you to feel as comfortable, safe, and empowered as possible as you continue along your journey.
