About Me
Hali Duncan, MC, RCC, CCPA
Hi! My name is Hali Duncan and I live in Kimberley, B.C. I just graduated from City University of Seattle with a Master's in Counselling in June 2020. For the last decade I have worked in multidisciplinary clinics as a Kinesiologist.
I love my work as a counsellor and am excited to be on this journey!
My theoretical orientation is eclectic. I draw from various different modalities to help you reach your goals. I naturally gravitate towards a trauma informed relationship. I feel that trauma is an integrated experience between mind, body, and environment and each individual has a different reaction to a traumatic event.
Therapeutic Modality
I have chosen to work from a trauma-informed perspective in my practice. Most of the challenges that we face in our day to day life are our bodies interpretation of its surroundings. Our nervous system is so amazing at responding to our daily challenges but sometimes it over reacts by causing us panic and distress or we freeze and don't react at all.
