About rethink

rethink is a private counselling service operated by me, Doug Elliott.

I hold a Masters of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology from City University.

As well as my work at rethink, I work in the field of addiction and recovery. I have received specialized training in Cognitive/Behavioural therapy, Individual and Group Psychotherapy, Human Sexuality, Family Systems, Narrative and Solution Focused therapy, Alcohol and Drug abuse (both youth and adult), Marital therapy, Mood disorders, Anger Management, and the interpretation of dreams.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the B.C. Association of Clinical Counsellors, and I'm bound by their Code of Ethical Conduct & Standards of Clinical Practice.

Originally from Toronto, Ontario, I moved to Vancouver in 1994. I have a wealth of experience working with people, both in and out of the field of psychology. My colleagues tell me that I brings a lot of positive energy and humour into their lives and this is reflected in my practice.

I enjoy music and play the piano; I also like getting outdoors to hike, snowboard, and work in my garden.
