Graemme Brown

Graemme Brown (Dip.C / SEP) runs a private counseling practice on Gabriola Island. Associated with The Haven since attending his first experiential workshop there in 1985, he is dedicated to compassionate and gentle inquiry. Drawing on his expertise with the family-systems approach of Virginia Satir, Jungian shadow work and the trauma healing of Peter Levine’s Somatic Experiencing system, Graemme’s approach is to assist people to re-connect with their innate resilience and aliveness, fostering healthier relationships within the self, with others and with the planet.

As a member of The Haven’s core faculty, Graemme co-leads Come Alive, Living Alive: Self Awareness, Living Alive: Meaningful Connections, Theory and Practice of Transformations, and Couples Alive programmes, as well as other custom workshops offered in China, across Canada and online.

Self Compassion

Also With Jo-Ann Kevala

January 7 - 10, 2027

Using music, guided imagery, gestalt, art, stories and other experiential forms, you will have an opportunity to learn about the paths that lead you away from yourself, and explore paths that can direct you towards self-acceptance. There will be opportunities to explore blame and victimhood, patterns of striving that lead to self-hate, and a variety of ways we can move toward self-compassion.
