Meet Nick — Practicum Student Counsellor at Tyne Buchy Counselling Collective
We’re excited to welcome Nick to our counselling team! Nick brings years of experience working with children, youth, parents, and families, along with a warm, relaxed, and down-to-earth approach to counselling.
Nick works with children, youth, and adults, supporting concerns including:
Anxiety & emotional regulation
ADHD & autism
School avoidance and school-related challenges
Relationships, communication & boundaries
Parenting & family dynamics
Couples counselling
Depression & life challenges
His approach draws from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), solution-focused and skills-based therapies, mindfulness, play-informed therapy, and Gottman-informed couples approaches. Nick takes a collaborative, strengths-based approach and works with each client to understand what is happening beneath the surface and identify strategies that fit their individual needs.
Why work with a practicum student?
Working with a practicum student can be a great opportunity to access thoughtful, evidence-informed counselling at a reduced rate while supporting the development of the next generation of counsellors. Nick is completing his clinical training under ongoing supervision, allowing him to provide counselling while continuing to develop his skills and knowledge with the support of an experienced clinical supervisor.
Most importantly, Nick is committed to creating a space where clients feel comfortable, respected, understood, and able to be themselves.
In-person appointments are available in Vernon, with **online counselling also available throughout British Columbia**.
If you or your child could use some support, we’d love to connect you with Nick. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, big emotions, relationship challenges, school avoidance, or simply feeling stuck, counselling can be a place to start moving forward.
