Danielle Schroeder MA, RCC, Registered Clinical Counsellor
I have been a registered clinical counsellor since 2008, residing and working on the stolen lands of Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. For the first ten years of my career I worked primarily with Callanish Society, a non-profit organization, where I supported individuals and families through trauma, cancer, end of life, and grief.
It was following the birth of my second child in 2018 that I felt called to shift my counselling focus to supporting individuals and couples transitioning to parenthood, and raising families.
In my counselling work I hope to reflect my core values of listening, empathy, curiosity, and a strong commitment to collective healing and community building. As a white cisgender woman and therapist trained in Western Psychology, I am becoming more aware of the oppressive systems that have influenced my worldview and provided me with unfair privilege and advantage. Knowing this, I am deeply committed to unlearning and dismantling these oppressive systems within myself, and in my counselling practice, and will do my part to make counselling a safer space for everyone, especially for people who are marginalized by these oppressive systems.
I am grateful to work with the interdisciplinary team at South Hill Family Centre. Together, we offer a safe and supportive space for individuals and families seeking ongoing medical and emotional support.
I offer video and in-person sessions for individuals and couples. My in-person sessions take place off-site from South Community at a counselling office at 3140 Main street.
