Welcome to the Practice Dan Beauvais

I’d like to formally welcome a new associate to my practice, Dan Beauvais. Read Dan’s introduction letter below. He is also the guest writer this month.

Suite 120 – 1451 Marine Drive West Vancouver, BC, V7P 1B8  778-235-2508

Dan BeauvaisDan Beauvais has been providing counselling services in various settings for 30 years.  He has worked in a broad spectrum of social service sectors providing counselling to individuals, couples and families.  The depth of Dan’s clinical skills comes out of his extensive experience supporting people over many landscapes, through a variety of human experiences.  Mapping Dan’s professional work through Family Service Agencies to Acute Medical and Rehab Settings has contributed to his extensive practiced insights and intuitive sensibility.

Academically, Dan holds a Master’s Degree in Social Work with a specialization in Individual and Family Counselling from Dalhousie University.  He is trained in normal development and abnormal psychology, counselling and personality theories, group therapy and practice, family therapy theory and practice, research design and ethics.  Dan is a member in good standing with the BC College of Social Workers and is a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors.

Dan’s counselling practice utilizes Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Non Violent Communication.  Narrative work “seeks to be a respectful, non-blaming approach to counselling and community work, which centres people as the experts in their own lives. It views problems as separate from people and assumes people have many skills, competencies, beliefs, values, commitments and abilities that will assist them to reduce the influence of problems in their lives.”

Individuals, couples and families can find themselves entrenched in problem saturated stories and lose sight of those preferred ways of being that reflect their authentic voice.  Narrative work helps people reconnect to those forgotten ideals and principles they once held dear.  Dan works in a collaborative non-judgmental manner to help determine treatment goals to address many of the same struggles that we all face from time-to-time including relationship strain, depression, anxiety, identity, and personal transformation, addiction, parent-teen conflict, grief and loss, and others.

On a personal level, Dan has lived and worked on the North Shore for most of his adult life.  He has been married for 25 years and has two lovely daughters.  He is passionate about reading philosophy and how it informs psychotherapeutic practice.  He enjoys tennis, a sport that both his daughters compete at on a National level.  He and his partner center their life on family, travel and everyday activities that contribute to learning and happiness.

Dan enjoys working collaboratively with other community professionals, is available for consultations and can prepare clinical reports when required.  Do not hesitate to contact Dan to make referrals for counselling services when needed.

Mastery Practice Tool

Practice moving into your heart. In front of your heart hold a loved one, a pet, go to nature, do an activity you love. Invite your heart to open as you feel yourself melt into the feeling of love. Bring this intention and attention into your life - into your present moment now. Bring this heart intelligence into your life, into your present moment now and experience what's good in the moment. There is a wealth of aliveness in your heart. Take a deep breath and consider how you want to live your life.

Testimonial

My daughter, Trinity, attended her first Children’s Empowerment Workshop and she loved it! It has helped her deal with some of the real anxieties that all children go through - from the not so nice kid at school, to the imagination that runs away with her at night time, when we are getting ready for bed.

She practices her rooting and the different breathing techniques that she has learned, and has become stronger and more confident in dealing with different situations.
