My job is to work with your better self. Whatever your issue, I assume you have many internal resources but that these resources are not being fully utilized. I provide a safe space for you to talk about what you’re going through to help you positively shift the way you feel about yourself and the world.

Do you lack confidence or struggle with feeling like you're not good enough, not worthy, or in some way unsafe in your world? Are your relationships struggling? Do you find yourself engaging in unwanted behaviour? So many wonderful people are struggling now more than ever, feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depressed, triggered, and are self-medicating with unhealthy coping strategies...feeling lost and alone with how to manage their relationships, their careers, and their lives. Bottling it all up and pushing it to the side can lead to long-term issues in your body and your mind. We believe clarity, calm, and peace should be easier.

My name is Benno Dreger, director of Pacific Family Life Counselling. These days it seems as though life has never been more stressful or complicated.

We are spiritual beings experiencing life in human form, but the challenges of our human condition can often overwhelm us. Spirituality involves reconnecting with our true nature as spiritual beings and pure awareness. Psychotherapy, on the other hand, helps us heal and release the burdens we carry throughout life, while also fully embracing our human nature. Whether you are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, career changes, life transitions, or struggles in relationships, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions. Together, we will uncover your inner wisdom and resilience.

Despite your best efforts, you may find yourself returning to the same patterns: overthinking, being hard on yourself, struggling in relationships, or feeling influenced by experiences you thought were behind you. Understanding these patterns is the first step. Lasting change comes from learning to respond differently. Together, we'll explore what's keeping these patterns in place and develop practical, evidence-based strategies that help you break unhelpful patterns, so your choices reflect the person you want to be.

Maybe you've always felt like a lot. Too sensitive, too in your head, too aware of everything beneath the surface. Maybe you've spent years trying to take up less space or logic your way out of patterns you can't seem to break. And yet here you are, still feeling it all.
That's not a flaw. That's where the work gets interesting.
I'm a therapist and founder of Oddly Human Counselling. I work with thoughtful, complex, and often neurodivergent adults who are tired of managing their inner world and ready to actually understand it.

Most of my clients come to me after years of being bounced around — poked, prodded, dismissed, told their symptoms are stress or in their head. They live with chronic pain, chronic illness, ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, Long COVID, POTS, or medical trauma, and they're done pushing through flares and pretending to be fine. What they want is someone who actually gets it. I do — I live in a chronic-illness body myself. We work on nervous system regulation, pacing, and everything you're carrying alongside the illness, using Pain Reprocessing Therapy, SSP, CBT, DBT, and somatic work. Online across BC, AB, MB, SK, NL, YT, NT, and NU.

The people I often work with are struggling with feeling like they don't belong anywhere - whether that be with friends, family or at school, or work. They feel like they aren't 'good enough,' to be in the spaces or roles that they are in. Some find their relationships complicated - with friends, family, or romantic partners - where others don’t understand their values and what they want. You deserve to be heard, you deserve to live life on your terms with your values, and you deserve space to belong.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when you've been carrying things on your own for a long time. You may feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by shame, navigating the impact of trauma, or struggling in your relationships. Whatever brings you here, you don't have to face it alone.
My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and compassionate. Every person arrives with a different story, so rather than relying on a single therapeutic model, I integrate evidence-based approaches that are tailored to your unique needs.
