Dr. Marla Korecky is a licensed psychologist with the College of Health and Care Professionals of BC (#2736). Marla prioritizes a collaborative and client-centered approach to treatment, working together with her clients to identify their evolving needs, preferences, and goals for therapy. She believes that her clients are the experts of their experience and focuses treatment on supporting each individual to facilitate the changes they are looking to make to feel more in control and fulfilled in their lives.

Marla integrates a variety of evidence-based approaches to treatment, including Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) and Mindfulness-based practice, as well as various resources, strategies, and tools to effect change. Treatment is tailored to help each client gain insight into the areas that may influence their current challenges (including exploring previous significant experiences and relationships) and to make meaning of their emotional experiences. An integrative approach is also used to support clients to develop the skills necessary to build resilience and confidence in their ability to navigate future obstacles. Marla considers herself privileged to support individuals experiencing a wide range of difficulties including depression, emotion regulation difficulties, anxiety, trauma, stress-related challenges, holistic health and wellness concerns, healthy work-life balance, communication and relationships, and challenges with adjusting to and navigating life transitions.

Marla previously worked at Red Fish Healing Centre for Mental Health and Addiction, an integrated treatment facility for adults living with complex concurrent disorders (substance use and other severe mental health issues). Marla also has experience working in outpatient interdisciplinary chronic pain rehabilitation programs, community mental health, and primary care settings.
