About Bev

Beverly Hutchinson is a Canadian Clinical Counsellor (CCC) and a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) (RPQ),who works neurodiverse youth, adults and their spouses to increase their well being. Clients who utilize Bev’s services will benefit from her wealth of life experience coupled with her knowledge of the latest evidenced-based therapeutic treatments.

Throughout the counselling process, Bev places an emphasis on building and strengthening a productive working relationship with her clients. She also collaboratively creates holistic treatment plans with clients centered on their needs and goals. These flexible road maps help the clients move from where they are now to where they want to go.

WHY WE CARE

Passion for Neurodiversity

I am very passionate about supporting women and girls who are neurodivergent because my daughter is autistic. Thus, as a psychotherapist, women and a mother, I deeply committed to assisting other 'daughters' in their neurodivergent journey.
