Chris Rottcher , NCPS

Chris Rottcher is an integrative counsellor who blends several therapeutic models to meet each person where they are. He holds NCPS, a professional counselling credential, and aims to create an environment of authentic communication in which people feel listened to and understood. Chris works collaboratively, helping clients build enough trust to explore deeper issues over time and to engage with difficult emotions and memories in a steady way.

He supports exploration of both past and recent hurts, including trauma, with a focus on processing experiences so that change can last beyond the therapy room. Drawing on a range of techniques, he tailors the therapeutic approach to the needs of each person while maintaining an emphasis on the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for healing.

Trained as a REMA therapist, Chris highlights four interconnected dimensions of wellbeing. He points to the relational nature of human life and the importance of attunement with oneself and others. He attends to the embodied aspect of experience, acknowledging how thoughts, feelings, spirituality, and sexuality are lived through the body. He also supports meaning-making, helping clients process life events so that hope and purpose can be restored. Finally, he encourages agency by developing self-awareness that enables clearer choice and action.

When people feel stuck, these areas are often affected, frequently by trauma from childhood or recent events. Chris aims to journey with clients using honest communication and appropriate therapeutic tools to help them feel more balanced and whole.
