Powerful Mind Counselling

Meet Muge Celik Orucu

I have a Ph.D in Psychology and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC).

Taking the first step toward therapy requires courage, and I hold deep respect for anyone who begins this journey toward healing and personal growth. If you’re here, chances are something in your life isn’t feeling quite right—and you don’t have to navigate it alone. Whether you’re experiencing stress, working through a difficult life transition, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I’m here to support you in a safe and compassionate space. I offer both in-person and virtual counselling, working with individuals, couples, and families across British Columbia.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, empathetic, and non-judgmental. I believe that trust and connection are at the heart of meaningful therapeutic work. With over 25 years of experience as a Clinical Counsellor, I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches to support clients facing concerns such as anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and relationship challenges. I have had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including adults and youth, and I remain deeply committed to ongoing learning and professional development.

Alongside my clinical work, I have taught at the college and graduate levels, contributed to academic publications, and presented at international conferences. My work has also taken me to institutions such as Ohio State University and McGill University, where I have collaborated with leading professionals in the field. I offer counselling in both English and Turkish and strive to meet every client with warmth, presence, and respect. Outside of counselling, I like to spend time with my family including my two cats, cooking and having friends over and travelling.
