Teaching goes beyond sharing knowledge—it is about mentoring students to grow into socially responsible leaders who shape healthier, more inclusive workplaces.

Clelland, Debbie

I am very happy that I have the opportunity to be a faculty member in Counselling Psychology in Vancouver.  Walking alongside students and teaching the next generation of psychotherapists is really important to me. I do my best to meet students where they are, and invite them to take the next steps in their own education and career goals.

“For what then matters is to bear witness to the uniquely human potential at its best, which is to transform a personal tragedy into a triumph, to turn one’s predicament into a human achievement.”- Viktor E. Frankl, Man’s Search for Meaning

“Counselling, or psychotherapy, is a calling, with its students possessing an inborn wisdom. Teaching is helping students use this wisdom to be in service of another, be it for reducing pain or accessing potential.”

Birleanu, Ioana

“The path to growing and flourishing as a human being is through continuous learning, and everyone has the innate ability to absorb and apply knowledge.”

This belief is the cornerstone of everything I do as a Leadership practitioner, consultant, and professor. I see my role not as someone who simply transfers information, but as someone who creates sacred spaces for learning and self-improvement. When I witness students discover their own capabilities and watch them apply new insights to transform their lives and work, I’m reminded why this calling chose me. It’s an absolute honor to facilitate these moments of growth and to be part of each person’s unique flourishing journey.
