Description

I added this section to the website because I think books are important. Well selected books provide helpful and appropriate information and create an environment for communication and sharing of ideas. Well selected books can also anchor your learnings in a way that is meaningful and future oriented. It is my goal, and the goal of the Kamloops Centre for Therapy, that we provide insight and guidance in your selection of materials that will aid you in your goal to develop and grow as individuals, as couples, as families. The books that I suggest are but a small sample of what it available to you in this huge global market. They are, however, some that I, and those of the Kamloops Centre for Therapy, have found to be helpful, provocative, and growth oriented. The reviews that I offer are not in order of the best book to the least informative. Rather, they reflect some of my favourites based on my experience of helpfulness and interest.

I am very excited to embark on another leg of my journey through life. When I joined Lorraine Moulton at the Kamloops Centre for Therapy, I knew I had found a way to use my knowledge and experience to reach out to others in a different way. Let me tell you a little about myself! My thirty plus years of experience in the public school system has provided me with a unique perspective in dealing with and understanding child development, family conflict, and emotional problems. I am able to assist parents to more effectively see and meet the needs of their children, especially during impending divorce. The child caught between conflict of their parents can be heart wrenching. Assisting parents to understand how their negative behaviors impact their children will help prevent further distress. By coaching parents how to put aside their personal issues, I am able to support them in focusing on what is in the best interest of their children. I have many Therapeutic techniques at my disposal to assist in affirmative change, but my main focus is establishing a positive relationship with my client. Counsellors deal with complex matters.

Note: from Lorraine....Bruce is a sensitive, kind soul who is dedicated to finding solutions to guide you towards a more harmonious life - a life of simple joys and pleasures.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is one of the most researched methods of therapy to date. Francine Shapiro is recognized as the founder of this method of therapy. It is particularly effective in reducing and/or ameliorating trauma. Trauma that comes from exposure to sexual abuse, physical abuse, verbal abuse, emotional abuse and vicarious abuse. Vicarious abuse refers to the witnessing of abuse - not necessarily happening to you directly. EMDR is a method that taps into the subconscious material of the individual - the material of experiences, thoughts, and feelings that become suppressed over the years of coping and functioning in an anti-emotional world. In the viewing and placing of events in the time line of peoples' lives, these events lose significance as the more present experiences gain their rightful places in their world.

The role of the therapist is to validate (make real) the experience of the person of abuse. It is to separate past from present from future. It is to adjust perceptions from the past to fit the reality of the present, to develop new expectations to reflect the world they now live in, and to help people create a vision for the future that is not contaminated by past experiences.
