Sophia Murray
Counsellor, MCP-AT, RCC
Sophia is a Registered Clinical Counsellor with a Master’s in Counselling Psychology and Art Therapy. She had first worked at Peace Arch Hospice Society as a student counsellor during her clinical practicum training. Although she has experience and training in a variety of different therapeutic modalities, first and foremost, she believes in the importance and healing potential of human connection and feels it is an honour and a privilege to walk alongside the clients we serve during their grief recovery journey. Sophia is grateful for the opportunity to return to Peace Arch Hospice Society, such a community-driven organization with an immensely caring and compassionate team. In her free time, Sophia enjoys experimenting with different cooking concoctions and exploring a variety of arts and crafts projects as a form of self-care. She also loves spending cozy time at home with her partner, Seth, and their cat, Frida Catlo (in homage to the trail-blazing painter, Frida Kahlo).
Brittany Borean
Counsellor
Brittany is thrilled to join the Peace Arch Hospice Society team as a practicum student completing her clinical internship. Prior to joining PAHS, for six years she had the honor of supporting grieving youth and young adults and is passionate about continuing to create spaces for exploring grief. She appreciates approaches rooted in exploring the stories and narratives that shape a person’s life, while also discovering and creating preferred ones. Additionally, she values body-based approaches that support the connection between the emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical self. Beyond her passion for grief work, Brittany loves to rock-hound, bird-band, forest-bath, book-read, and beach-comb with her partner.
