The Teacher Education Office welcomes Michelle Lim, Faculty of Education Embedded Counsellor, effective May 25, 2023. Dayna McCracken is taking time to relax and replenish and will return in late 2024.
Michelle Lim has a Master of Social Work degree, and is a Registered Social Worker with the BC College of Social Workers. With cultural humility, she strives to foster a welcoming, caring, and trauma-informed space where people can express themselves and feel heard. Her counselling approach emphasizes the mind-body connection and integrates various therapeutic approaches, including solution focused brief therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and dialectical behavioural therapy.
