Joel Kroeker Counselling

Specialties

As a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), a Jungian Analyst (Training Candidate) and a Music-​Centred Psychotherapist (MTA) I offer a safe and supportive, individual, integrative approach to help you explore the underlying meaning of your concerns including anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, loss of meaning in life, issues around spirituality and addictions. Our work together relies on the notion that the creative process is a living thing implanted in the human psyche and that all creative expression represents a life-​affirming process of self-​regulation and a return to wholeness. Through a soulful depth approach we’ll work together to offer you the opportunity to safely move through a stuck place toward a greater sense of wholeness and meaning.

Some of the tools available on this journey include dream work, expressive arts, working with symbols, Jungian based depth work and contemporary approaches from the wider field of psychology including CBT and mindfulness-​based approaches.

Together we’ll explore ways to give voice to your own creative capacity and to express what is ‘unspeakable’ in a way that is safe and focused toward your own particular aims. There are many expressive arts-​based ways to express what we can’t say through words and this is why I also enjoy leading individual and group music therapy sessions in a broad context with people across the lifespan.
