"I teach you skills that you'll keep for life" |
My name is Claudia Dagnino, and I am honored to guide your self-healing process, so you can get back to your life and live it in the most fulfilling way.
My mission is to improve people’s lives (and therefore their beloved ones) by helping them to achieve fast, positive, and lasting results that create positive change. I am led by my values of honesty and positivity, and always strive to be ethical, supportive, caring and encouraging. I guide my clients to go through a process of healing to come back to their lives. You take the lead. |
WHAT I DO
I work with people who are tired of traditional counselling modalities that didn’t bring lasting results to their mental health challenges.
The people I work with typically suffer from the ongoing effects of anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, trauma, chronic pain, grief, and abuse.
My clients all want the same result. They want to experience peace and emotional freedom.
I am Registered Clinical Counselor with over 18 years of therapy experience, the only Counsellor in Canada that is a Practitioner of Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT), a Certified SP Hypnosis Practitioner, the only Certified SP Hypnosis Spanish Trainer worldwide, a Yoga Therapist and a Certified Yoga Instructor registered with the International Yoga Alliance.
My unique therapeutic approach assists individuals by reaching lasting results right from the first session, by using multiple therapeutic modalities according to the client's needs.
"I’m passionate about what I do because being able to guide people to recover their own life also enriches my own life - and whatever enriches my life, will also enrich other people’s lives. It’s a cycle of improvement and enrichment." - Claudia

WHAT MAKES ME UNIQUE
I hold a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology, and have more than 18 years of experience working as a Clinical Counsellor with Vancouver Coastal Health, Battered Women Support Services, and Vancouver School Board to name a few. Throughout my career, I have acquired deep experience in areas related to trauma and addictions, abuse and PTSD. I have also worked with the Deaf community and am fluent in both English and Spanish. Other areas of specialty include: chronic pain, emotional disturbance, life transitions, sexual abuse, and stress management.
I have been a facilitator of the STAR Addictions Group with Vancouver Coastal Health, specifically the “Rising STAR”, a six-week early recovery program that teaches essential recovery skills from a harm-reduction perspective. ( The STAR program in Vancouver Coastal Health is composed of the following: Rising STAR, a six-week early recovery program that teaches essential recovery skills from a harm-reduction perspective and Bright STAR, a six-week intensive program that is abstinence-based. And a drop-in group for all women in recovery called Morning STAR is also available on an ongoing weekly basis.)
"I’m a lifelong learner, and I engage in continuing education on a regular basis related to my passion: Guiding people to healing through Mind - Body Synchronicity." - Claudia
I am a Yoga Therapist and a Certified Yoga Instructor, with expertise in modalities backed up by science such as Trauma Sensitive Yoga and Restorative Yoga. Since 2011, I have trained in a variety of Yoga styles including Restorative, Hatha Yoga, Hot Yoga and Trauma Sensitive Yoga, accumulating over 320 hours of formal teacher training. I have also taught Trauma Informed Yoga for the women attending the STAR program, a recovery program at VCH.
I have also successfully completed the BC First Responder’s Health Occupational Awareness Trainings for Treating First Responders Trauma, officially endorsed by the BC Professional Firefighters Association. This Certification qualifies me to work with first responders, including Fire Fighters, Nurses, Police Officers, Paramedics and other medical and healthcare professionals. Such certification, along with my Advanced Specialty Certificate in Forensic Science enables me to have a deeper awareness and understanding of the trauma associated with first responders in the field.
In October 2016, I provided an evidence-based presentation on Yoga and Mental Health for the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors at Adler University, called: Yoga for the Soul: Myth or Reality.
