About Me

"Isolation only exists in isolation; once shared, it evaporates."  Irvin Yalom
Vivienne Herke

I am Vivienne Herke, MSW, MA
I'm a British-Canadian Psychological Counsellor who obtained a Masters in Clinical Social Work from Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario, Canada (2000) which built upon a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from McGill University, Montreal, (1998). In 2009, I gained a certificate in Child and Adolescent Mental Health from Douglas College, BC. and I have taken various training courses in cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and psychiatry to stay up to date with the latest developments in the field.

I am currently a Counselling Psychologist in training as I am in a PhD program at the New School for Psychotherapy and Counselling which is affiliated with Middlesex University, London, (UK).

I am a registered  Psychotherapist with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) , Membership No.  2011188786, and a registered Counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and I adhere to the codes of ethics and standards of practice of both of these organisations.  I have been supervising many Master's level psychological counsellors in training at Webster Geneva for the last two years. I have regular clinical supervision with a very experienced trauma therapist.

I am also a Counselling Psychologist in training as I am in the final year of a Phd at NSPC in London which is attached to Middlesex University, UK. My reaserch is on partners of migrants and expats who don't feel settled living in Switzerland.

I have had a mixed career path in counselling, social work, law, marketing and HR moving freely between the public and private sectors over the last 20 years in a global context.
