Amy KobeltRegistered Clinical Counsellor

Registered Clinical Counsellor, Therapist in Vancouver

Therapy with Amy 

My journey to becoming a counsellor started with my own appointment in a counselling office. I remember feeling nervous about the process, but eventually felt inspired by my own healing journey to support others in the same way that counselling has helped me heal and grow. I am passionate about self-growth and discovery, and I love supporting you to better understand your past, make connections and build skills for a better and stronger future. I work from a trauma informed and attachment model and I strongly believe that part of the healing process that happens in counselling is through the therapeutic relationship. I believes work collaboratively with you to meet your goals in counselling, and I am truly honoured every time someone chooses to invite me into that journey – I know it is not easy! I welcome working with diverse clients of all ages, cultures, genders, sexual orientations and abilities and I currently work with clients ages 11 and up.

Certifications & Training

Outside of Work

I currently live in Vancouver, BC and I love spending time outdoors, whether that’s in the mountains or on the beach. Nature helps ground me, and I love spending time being active outside. I’m an avid traveller and I have spent many months with just a backpack exploring the world and living in France, Thailand, and most recently Colombia! I’m currently learning Spanish and really enjoy playing beach volleyball. You can usually catch me with a cup of coffee in my hand and cooking up a storm in the kitchen.
