Krystyna Kinowski BC Teletherapy Psychologist

For further enquiries, call (250)380-0361 or email kkinowski201@hotmail.com.

Welcome to my website. I hope you find what you're looking for, whether you're a potential client interested in EMDR therapy, or a therapist wishing to download the Best Foot Forward protocol. I am a licensed psychologist registered with the College of Health Care Providers of BC #0941. My clinical experience spans more than 40 years and includes not only psychotherapy but graduate teaching and workshop presentations.

I specialize in online virtual therapy for traumatic events using EMDR and somatic processing. I also help clients struggling with depression, anxiety, and unresolved issues from their childhoods. I use a variety of therapy methods including Cognitive Behavioural therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique, the Flash technique, and practical skill building such as assertiveness training, conflict resolution, and anger management.

All my work is done virtually. Research has shown that teletherapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. It also has some distinct benefits. It allows people living in remote parts of BC to get the benefits of therapy using their internet connection. It's also a great option for anyone with mobility problems. And when you see your therapist from home, you can conveniently gather items that are often helpful during therapy such as a pillow, blanket, a favorite object, and a cup of tea.

EMDR transitions seamlessly into virtual therapy. Bilateral stimulation done online can be the butterfly hug or high knee taps, both of which can be seen on a computer screen. I can also send you a program you can download that has bilateral audio tones designed for EMDR.

Check out the My Practice page on this website for more information about working with me virtually. Email me at kkinowski201@hotmail.com or call 250 380-0361 to ask any questions or to set up a brief consultation to see if we might be a good fit.

It was published in the EMDRIA newsletter 2003 Vol. 8, Issue #3. You can download the four page protocol for $7.50 using the links at left. A manual, casebook, and rating cards are also available.
