Becky Michaluk
Counsellor, MC, RCC
Verified
I offer awareness/insight-based therapy where I guide clients inward during our sessions. Many of my clients have already tried "thinking" their way free of unhealthy mental states, to no avail. This experiential process helps clients get to the root of the problem by locating unconscious processes and traumas, and actively working with these in gentle but effective ways. Clients become more self-empowered and learn how to manage their behaviours and emotions from a wise, self-regulated place. I also work with partners who want to gain freedom from negative patterns and deepen their connection. All approaches are evidence based.
Erinn Doncaster
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MA, RSW, CCC, SEP
Verified
If you’re feeling overwhelmed and stuck, Erinn can help you begin the journey toward feeling greater capacity, peace, and aliveness again. Perhaps childhood experiences have left you with residual depression, anxiety, or recurring relationship patterns that you don’t know how to change. Or maybe you recently gave birth and you feel like you “should” be happy but you’re actually struggling to cope. Or perhaps you or your partner experienced a trauma and now you’re trying to navigate the impacts on your relationship. Or maybe you’re struggling with the effects of chronic stress due to living through a global pandemic.
Diane Brussell
Counsellor, MA, RCC
Verified
We cannot change the events or situations of our past, but we can absolutely be free from being chronically impacted, and compacted by our history. You are entitled to all of your feelings and they are an integral part of healing and living a healthy life. If you are ready to move what you are holding to a new place, I am here to support that process. You can find your voice, unpack your story, be seen and heard, I bring tools and support to make the changes you would like to make, so that you can embrace your life with love and enthusiasm. In my mind, everyone who survived their story and makes it to counselling is a superhero.
Kazimea Sokil
Counsellor, MA, RCC

I work with many kinds of clients. Kids, teens, and parents; couples and families; and people with a wide range of neuro-diversity as well as diversity in gender, sexuality and identity. Those with a creative imagination may be drawn to creative arts therapy. Some seek better understanding of themselves, and some seek better communication with others. Are you looking for acceptance and empathy along with encouragement to become your best self? Looking for strategies to explore your needs, strengths, resources and obstacles? I want to help you thrive in your world, with joy, confidence and self-acceptance.
Whole Heart Centre
Counsellor, MFT, RCC

“Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do.” –Brené Brown. As your mentor or counsellor, I want to create a safe space for you to recognize and transform the life patterns of overwhelming anxiety or panic attacks, persistent stress from big life changes and events, distress from trauma, and pain from broken or disconnected relationships. Using both traditional and holistic healing methods, I'll show you how to nurture your emotional health, cultivate an inner strength and confidence, tap into love, and step into your power as a wise self-healer.

Tara Hope
Counsellor, MA, RCC
Verified
For well over 30 years, emotional, physical, and mental healing has been my life's work. I have a deep understanding of childhood trauma, panic disorder, grief/loss from suicide, bipolar disorder, the trials of hormonal imbalance across the lifespan, and parenting issues (especially those stemming from one's own childhood attachment issues). While I have worked with many people of all ages in a variety of settings, today I mainly work with adult women who want freedom, peace, and joy - no matter what. I work from my cottage office in North Courtenay and also welcome online clients. (EFT online is an option for non-BC residents.)
Chad Northcott
Counsellor, MA, CCC, RCC
Verified
Has traditional therapy not worked for you? Do certain memories still have a strong negative emotional pull when they come up, or when discussed in therapy? For some, there needs to be more than simply talking about the issues that distress us. Sometimes we need to address the underlying cause — the ‘root’ of the problem — not just the current symptoms that currently cause us distress: whether it be interpersonally, emotionally or within the cognitive space.
Evan Johnson
MPA, BA, CHC
I support people who are dealing with stressors that affect their thoughts, feelings, and actions. Difficult experiences can leave us confused and overwhelmed. If this sounds familiar, you may be trying to make sense of it, get relief, or recover. You've probably thought about or done something to make changes, but the situation seems stuck. It may lead to anger, sadness, worry, fear, anxiety, or depression. You may have a need to connect, communicate, or be understood and accepted. Your goals might include gaining self-knowledge, personal resources, or skills to cope with the issues and improve your life and relationships.
Jennifer Shillington
Counsellor, MA, RCC
Verified
Do you want to reignite a passion for your life and feel more connected to yourself and others? Together in a warm and nurturing space you will become empowered as your own healer. You will be invited to regain a sense of self-efficacy and gain skills to journey back to a grounded sense of self.

These past few years have been more than difficult on everyone.

Julie Beth Mills
Pre-Licensed Professional, RPC-C
Verified
I seek to help my clients with issues around stress (including Covid-19), self-esteem, anxiety, depression, grief, loss, life transitions and emotional wounds. Using a collaborative approach, I work with individuals to address family patterns and old systems of coping in order to gain an understanding of their present circumstances. I work with youth and adults to set goals that are realistic and allow for positive and successful outcomes in therapy. Self-awareness and self-care are important in all sessions and I encourage these with compassion and respect at all times. The needs of my clients are the main priority in sessions.

Samantha Hunt
MSW, RSW
There are times in our lives that challenge us beyond our current capacity to cope. It can be during these challenging times that we seek out a professional therapist to assist us in coping, managing, and overcoming. These challenging times may come in the form of mental health symptoms of depression or anxiety, grief and loss, major life transitions or decisions, feeling overwhelmed or burdened, feeling "stuck", relationship distress, chronic pain or illness, thoughts of harm to self, and reactions after experiencing a traumatic event.
Sherina Holmes
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, RSW
Verified
I specialize in working with adolescents and adults with a variety of mental health and substance use issues including trauma, anxiety, depression, unhealthy relationships, addiction and self-esteem issues.
Nina Fleming
Counsellor, MEd, RCC
Verified
I believe we all have innate resilience and capacity for wellness – sometimes, when we encounter trauma, loss, or stress, we lose touch with those strengths. We may struggle with worry, hopelessness, self-criticism, or feel "stuck." Our relationships may suffer. At these times, we all need and deserve support. I work with each client to build self-compassion, confidence and regulation, gain insight, and grow skills for wellbeing. To me, safe, empathic relationships are the foundation of health and growth. I strive to create a safe space for clients, and attune to the heart of an issue, so that deep, lasting change can occur.

Online Counsellors
Online counselling is a good solution for people who do not have access to well-qualified clinical professionals in their area or who live remotely or abroad. We also refer to it as Teletherapy, online therapy or skype therapy: in short, it's simply conducting a clinical therapy session using a video or phone as the means of communicating.
It's an excellent solution for those who are immobile or find it more convenient to conduct therapy in the privacy of their own home. Or are agoraphobic (fearful of leaving their home), but still want counselling.
