Find a Focusing Professional - Donna Steadman

I’ve been a Registered Clinical Counsellor in Langley, BC since 2004.  After 9 years at a local agency working as an addictions counsellor, I transitioned to private practice, working with adults and couples who struggle with depression, anxiety, low self esteem, and relationship difficulties, to name a few.

In 2009 I earned my certification as a Focusing Oriented Therapist, and by 2015 I became a Certifying Coordinator.

Focusing Oriented Therapy has proven to be one of my most valuable counselling tools.  Because it works with the body, not the thoughts, it provides access to the festering internal wounds that cause depression, anxiety, and a host of other emotional and relational problems.  I chose this approach over other body-centered modalities because of its simplicity - it gets to the heart of the matter without a lot of techniques or counsellor involvement, and it helps to heal the wounds at their source.

In addition to my private practice, I now run a continuous intake training program, to certify other Counselling professionals as Focusing Oriented Therapists.  For information, please visit my website:  www.donnasteadman.com
