Patricia Ruiz, RCC. Registered Clinical Counsellors (RCCs) are specifically trained to help people improve and maintain their mental health and well-being. I use collaborative, narrative-informed, somatic-based, trauma-informed approaches to highlight the strengths, mental wellness, and resilience of my clients. I am trained in a range of evidence-based approaches including narrative, somatic-based, attachment-informed, CBT, DBT, CPT-informed, and couples therapy, and I use imagery and metaphors and the wisdom of the body, as well as cognitive processes. I work with clients to explore body sensations and wisdom, ways of thinking, emotions, and responses, as well as connection, communication, and meaning, and my work is rooted in a supportive therapeutic relationship.
