Adrienne Lutzke (She/Her)

- Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) - #22764

With a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and professional registration as a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors, I bring a compassionate, evidence-informed approach to therapy that is grounded in both psychological and medical knowledge. My background as a Registered Nurse in both acute and chronic care deepens my understanding of the connection between physical and emotional health, allowing me to offer holistic support for a wide range of concerns.

Therapeutic Approach & Philosophy:
My practice is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Person-Centered Care, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Somatic Experiencing, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). Grounded in a non-pathologizing, feminist lens, my approach honours your lived experience, emphasizes autonomy, and considers the impact of social and systemic factors on mental health. I aim to create a collaborative, affirming space where meaningful change can take place.

I believe that healing happens in relationship—within ourselves, with others, and within the systems we navigate. My goal is to walk alongside you with curiosity, respect, and compassion, helping you access your own wisdom and resilience in the face of life’s complexities.

Experience:
With professional experience across both the healthcare and mental health fields, I am uniquely equipped to support clients through a wide range of issues—from managing chronic illness to navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, and relationship dynamics. I have worked in diverse clinical environments, always centering care that is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and client-led.

Areas of Focus: 

I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship issues, life transitions, social justice, and the impacts of stress or illness. Whether you’re seeking insight, balance, or personal growth, I offer a compassionate, supportive space to explore your experiences and move forward with clarity and confidence. My approach is flexible and tailored to your unique needs—wherever you are on your journey.
