Although I have been counselling for many years, I find my style shifting away from traditional therapy towards a more collaborative and therapeutic coaching approach. I will support you towards your goals, I will help you gain insight and awareness, but you have to bring the motivation for change to sessions, and ultimately, you have to take the steps towards transforming your life.
I believe that challenges and problems we face are transformational moments in our history that guide and shape us to be who we are and who we will become.
My goal is to design an organization and program that creates space for people to deconstruct their life, gain a deeper understanding of themselves and identify what holds them back. Everyone experiences challenges at some point in their life and for different reasons. I like to help individuals understand the experiences that have become their story.
I want to help people reorganize their view of problems so that new ways of approaching these disruptions can emerge.
After that, people begin to understand themselves and create their own solutions, while learning to let go of self-destructive patterns.
I do this through many forms: Converging Currents offers conventional in-office therapeutic coaching sessions; as well as, therapy conducted in the outdoors (Adventure Therapy). Converging Currents also works with businesses and entrepreneurs to help them reach their goals or develop a stronger team of staff members goals through the creation of adventure retreats that bring staff and management together to work towards the business goals outlined by the company.

Transformation is Brave
Through facing my own challenges and learning to persevere through distressing life circumstances, I learned to face my own mental health. Learning how to respond to myself when I was in distress. Therefore, my belief is that those who choose to journey with themselves, on a self-reflective and self-aware sojourn, are the bravest amongst all.
Hannah Yager initially completed a Bachelors of Arts degree, studying Spanish and Development Studies, before continuing onto a Masters in Clinical Social Work with a focus in Couples and Family Therapy. Hannah is a Registered Social Worker with the British Columbia College of Social Workers.

About Hannah
Hannah grew up on a farm on Vancouver Island, just outside of Victoria, BC. She grew up building forts and spending time hiking through the many acres of crown land surrounding her home. She learned to navigate in the wilderness, because it was her backyard.
During her undergrad, she was passionate about language and culture and lived in both Quito, Ecuador and Trinidad, Bolivia, studying in Ecuador and later working on a water project in the Amazon Jungle of Bolivia.
Her passion for Adventure Therapy grew once in her Masters program and while working for an Outdoor Addictions Treatment Centre that had a focus on Adventure Therapy with At-Risk-Youth. This led to her passion to start her own program.
These experiences have shaped who Hannah is as both a counsellor and social worker, which give her a unique perspective on culture, people, and herself.
