Brendan Van Beek (Counselling Intern)

Brendan is excited to finally be working on his counselling practicum. For over a
decade, he’s been building experience in the neurodiversity field through respite, as an
education assistant, and volunteering as a co-lead in a number of social groups. Before
joining the counselling field, he was looking to become a teacher and has experience
working in schools and leading youth events.

He’s passionate about working with neurodiverse populations and hopes to expand his experience and skills to work with parents of children and youth with neurodiversity and disabilities. This includes working with Dads, Moms and single parents to help them make the most of their lives. He strongly believes that every human being is wonderfully made and strives to provide counselling support to clients to help them thrive.

Brendan primarily uses CBT, solution-focused and narrative therapy with his clients and rejoices with them in their successes and triumphs. He looks forward to working with you.
