Meet Jenya Draganova

Registered Clinical Counsellor

My name is Jenya Draganova and I am a registered clinical counsellor (RCC) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. I hold bachelor degrees in psychology and education, and a master degree of counselling psychology.

My counselling style is trauma-informed, integrative, client-centered, and collaborative. I mainly practice through a somatic and mindfulness-based lens, with a focus on creating a connection between mind and body. However, I believe that no single approach fits all and that you are the expert in your experience. As such, I see my role as the facilitator in your wellness journey, with your personal experience, identity and goals being the driving force in the therapeutic process. Prior to my work as a counsellor, I worked in various roles in the education field , often with a mental health focus. Constantly being drawn to the social and emotional aspect of my work eventually led me to pursue the field of counselling.

I reside in the mountain town of Squamish, BC and have an appreciation for deep connection and community. In my spare time, you can find me in the outdoors, trying out new recipes in the kitchen, and getting creative in my art studio.
