Meet Ashley Phillips

(she/her/hers)

 

Ashley is a Canadian Certified Counsellor and holds a Masters in Counselling. She primarily works with adults navigating PTSD + C-PTSD, anxiety, phobias, and trauma related conditions. Ashley has a particular focus on supporting people struggling with birth trauma and perinatal loss, and has a personal interest in supporting adults with the challenges of ADHD.

 

Ashley founded the Kelowna EMDR Clinic, being drawn to the effectiveness of EMDR and recognizing a lack of trauma-focused clinical space here. Through the clinic, Ashley offers high-quality EMDR therapy with a team equally committed to lasting, trauma-informed healing. 

​

With a focus on treating trauma at its core, Ashley works to help clients process traumatic events. While that covers a range of situations from accidents to other impactful traumas, Ashley specializes in working with PTSD, C-PTSD, and traumatic births including complicated labour and perinatal death.

​

EMDR Intensives

 

Research shows that PTSD and C-PTSD can be resolved with EMDR Intensive Sessions. After studying in programs designed by lead researchers in the Netherlands and the U.S., Ashley introduced EMDR Intensives to her practice. When she saw dramatic improvement in the daily lives of her clients, Ashley shifted her focus to EMDR Intensives.​

​

When not in the counselling office, you'll find Ashley taking advantage of Okanagan living - from camping to skiing, hiking to yoga, and visiting farmers' markets to make delicious meals from our local goods.​​
