Gillian Tuyp, RCC

Hi, I’m Gillian! I bring over 10 years of experience supporting children, youth, and families into my practice as a clinical counsellor. I hold a Masters Degree in Counselling Psychology from Adler University, and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Approved Supervisor with the B.C. Association of Clinical Counsellors.

I have provided treatment to children, youth, and families of various socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds in both acute and community mental health settings. A significant portion of my clinical experience has come from working in non-profit organizations such as the Mood Disorders Association of BC and Cameray Child and Family Services. My career in counselling began at Cameray, where I worked as a Parent Support Counsellor for families with children under 6 years old. Over the years, I held multiple roles within the agency, and eventually settled into a leadership role supervising a team of counsellors working with children and families.

When I am not in the office, I like to spend my time cooking, reading, hiking and camping. My rescue dog, Frankie, keeps me on my toes and is always making me laugh. As an animal person, I always enjoy hearing about my clients’ beloved pets!
