Life is a journey of ups and downs. At times, you may experience emotional pain, relationship struggles. Over the years, you may have developed your own ways of coping—avoiding difficult feelings, hiding them, suppressing them, distracting yourself. When these coping strategies no longer work, that's where I come in. I'm Yoly Lin, a Clinical Counsellor and Psychotherapist. The past 15 years have been a journey of gradual awakening. I have not only walked out of my own struggles—gaining inner peace and joy—but I have also helped many clients break free from the past trauma and old patterns that once kept them stuck.

Perhaps you have felt like you're too much or not enough, or somehow both at the same time. Maybe you've been told that you're 'gifted' or 'sensitive' or 'bossy' or 'not working to your full potential,' when what was really happening was that you have always been neurodivergent, unsupported, and misunderstood. If you feel like you have spent too much of your time and energy trying to perform, cope, or navigate systems that were never designed with your unique needs in mind, I'm glad you're here. Any way that you identify, you are welcome and you belong.

There is nothing more challenging than facing adversity alone and experiencing the profound loneliness it brings. As human beings, we repeatedly endure moments of brokenness and rebirth—yearning for a chance to breathe amid our pursuit of perfection and longing for a sense of home while striving for independence. Do you often find yourself searching for answers, struggling to escape the feeling that “the world wouldn’t care if I weren’t here”? Are you looking for a fellow traveller to walk alongside you as you confront life’s inevitable suffering?

Do you feel like your mind is always racing, your emotions hit harder than other people’s, and no matter how much you try, life still feels overwhelming? Many of the adults I work with are living with ADHD, intense emotional ups and downs, or long-standing relationship patterns shaped by attachment wounds. On the outside, you may appear capable, but internally, you might feel exhausted, reactive, misunderstood, or stuck in cycles of self-doubt and shame. You are not too much — you’ve been carrying too much without the right support.

Life’s experiences can leave us feeling stuck or disconnected from ourselves. My role is to provide a space where you can process painful memories, explore what feels heavy, and move toward greater clarity and connection. I use EMDR, a structured yet gentle approach that helps lighten the weight of difficult experiences and foster deep integration. I also draw on CBT, ACT, IFS, and EFT to keep therapy flexible and personalized, supporting individuals with anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, identity & belonging – including the unique challenges of Third Culture Kids (TCKs) and cross-cultural struggles.

My name is Iman - I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology (MCP) from Adler University. I was born and raised in Richmond, BC, and my path into counselling has always felt like a natural extension of who I am. As a second-generation Afghan immigrant, I’ve navigated the complexities of balancing cultural expectations, identity, resilience, and belonging. Throughout my life, I have been the person loved ones turned to during difficult times, and those experiences, along with my own personal challenges, have shaped my understanding of how vulnerable it can feel to ask for support.
