Meet Suzanne Noel
she/her/hers​

​

As a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Suzanne provides a supportive space for clients to work through the effects of trauma and stress. Her practice is focused on helping people move beyond painful or overwhelming experiences that continue to impact their lives, whether it's recent events or past trauma.

​

Using EMDR and other trauma-focused therapies like Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Suzanne works with clients to process and resolve traumatic memories, anxiety, and distressing patterns. These evidence-based therapies work with your brain’s natural ability to heal. It helps you navigate through PTSD, complex PTSD, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm, leading to meaningful change.​ 

 

Suzanne works with clients who find themselves “stuck” in recurring emotional or behavioural patterns despite their best efforts to move forward. In session, you focus on restoring balance, building resilience, and creating a sense of lasting calm. ​Additionally, she works with couples looking to strengthen communication and re-establish connection in their relationship.

​

Suzanne's approach is also effective for first responders, medical staff, and other professionals where you're exposed to high stress or traumatic environments. As a former emergency room nurse and nurse practitioner, Suzanne has a unique understanding of the landscape and working environment of healthcare professionals.

​

Originally from Alberta, Suzanne has called the Okanagan home since 2011. Outside the counselling room, Suzanne enjoys spending time outdoors—golfing, hiking, and exploring the many markets, wineries, and local events our Kelowna community has to offer.
