Fortified Counselling Inc Counselling and Psycotherapy Services
After building a very successful private practice over the past 13 years in South Surrey, Dr. Ellie Bolgar had the opportunity in 2018 to purchase her office in Langley and she started Dr. Ellie Bolgar & Associates Counselling and Family Mediation. With her usual enthusiastic manner, she brought her practice to a whole new level by adding family mediation and divorce coaching to a variety of counselling services.
She brought together a comprehensive team of professionals who are highly trained and experienced in child and family therapy, as well as couples counselling. They also bring their own unique style and approach to the practice. The diversity of skills, expertise and collectively created nurturing environment brings a great benefit to every client who comes into the center.
There are comfortable therapy rooms where people can feel safe to explore their issues, a play therapy room professionally set up with therapeutic materials to provide the best environment for children to learn and overcome their challenges, and the latest version of Neurofeedback system in a relaxing room to set the best condition for brain training.
Matt believes that clients are the experts in the counselling space. Using a non-judgmental, collaborative, and trauma-informed approach, he works closely with those struggling with mental health concerns like anxiety and depression. Matt also has experience working with those struggling with addiction and families in crisis. He has extensive experience working with adolescents and youth, and finds working with this demographic greatly impactful and rewarding. Emotion Focused Therapy, DBT, and Attachment Informed modalities are Matt’s main interventions of choice. He believes that individuals have an innate ability to heal in the right environment and with the right circumstances. In his spare time Matt likes to play soccer, run, eat, over-watch Netflix, and spend time with his wife and Labradoodle Elliot!
