Practice Information
Shivani is the founder and Clinical Director of the Shivani Wells Therapy Group in Vancouver, BC. While her work with clients is at the heart of her practice, she also enjoys supervising graduate students during their Master's practicums, supporting her team of registered therapists, and providing EMDRIA approved consultation for EMDR therapists.
Shivani's work with clients focuses on treating symptoms related to trauma, attachment wounds, and dissociation. She has a passion for helping her clients understand the root causes of their current struggles, foster a sense of internal harmony, and move forward with greater resilience and empowerment.
Shivani's approach combines EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and inner child/parts work informed by the Theory of Structural Dissociation and Internal Family Systems. She has advanced training in EMDR to support clients with dissociative disorders, complex trauma, depression, and chronic pain. Shivani is a new mother and has a growing interest in supporting other women who have crossed the threshold into parenthood and postpartum.
Direct billing with ICBC and CVAP is offered as well as low-cost counselling.
