Eating Disorders Therapists in Kitsilano, Vancouver, BC

I work with children, youth, adults, couples and families including people from all backgrounds experiencing different challenges. I have worked with individuals struggling with relationships, intimate relationships, communication, grief, loss, addictions, substance misuse, trauma, sexual identity, coping with diagnoses, academic struggles, career challenges, body dissatisfaction, low-confidence, low-self esteem, depression, anxiety, OCD, personality disorders and bipolar. I guide my clients through the change they want to accomplish thus helping them cope better in the face of future challenges.

The people who gravitate towards me as a counsellor want to explore their personal struggles to gain a new understanding of who they are. They hope to apply the learnings from what we are doing in sessions to their day to day life. Change happens when we do something different from what we have always done, and part of our work together is doing just that. We practice having hard conversations, exploring feelings and unmet needs. As well as exploring boundaries, our own discomfort in relationship and how to take care of yourself. Coming to counselling takes courage but the biggest part is translating that experience into the world.

Having an addicted person in your life can feel like a nightmare and tear your family apart. In order for addiction to have a chance of healing, we must first address the dynamics of the addict's relationships with their loved ones. Many loved ones unwittingly enable the addiction to continue, sometimes because they want to avoid confrontation and conflict. As the enabling continues, the addiction continues as well-and becomes progressively worse. It is important to understand that enabling an addict is never a loving act-and only leads to more severe consequences as time goes on.

I love working with people who don’t feel they fit into conventional spaces such as those in the LGBTQIA2S community, sex workers, neurospicy folx and those with stigmatized identities such as BPD. My aim as a therapist is to create a safe and non-judgemental environment in which you feel comfortable talking about any thoughts, feelings, or experiences regardless of how embarrassing or shameful you believe them to be, and be met with acceptance, warmth, and respect.

Life can sometimes darken our hearts and make things feel difficult or even hopeless, as if there is no way out. You may battle with anxiety, depression, perfectionism or low self-worth while a strong inner critic berates you every step of the way. Perhaps you feel pulled in different directions, while feeling as though you are losing control over your life - at a loss to know where to start in order to break the negative cycles you find yourself trapped in. Amidst all this, relationships may suffer, not only with others, but also with yourself as you strive to find who you really are amongst all the chatter and chaos of your mind.

With more than 10 years of professional experience in the academic and scientific field of psychology and also in the field of native American traditions, I have successfully accompanied people from all over the world to walk with ease the learning process that physical, emotional, mental and relational suffering can bring. My specialty in the field of academic psychology is in "Stress and PTSD" and "Eating Psychology" If you suffer from anxiety problems, meaninglessness in life, restlessness or if you do not have big issues but simply want to go beyond what limits you, then I will be happy to assist you.

My name is Johanna and my goal is to provide a productive and supported space where you can better understand yourself and achieve meaningful change. No matter how dire the circumstances appear to be, I believe that change is always possible. My motto is “keeping it real”, and I hope to be your fearless ally in your counselling journey. Starting counselling can be both daunting and uncomfortable, and I find it important to make this process as transparent, accessible and insightful as possible.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stressed? Do you long to relate to yourself, your relationships, and your life with greater ease and freedom? As a trained psychotherapist, I can help you make sense of difficult emotions and big life transitions, understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck and unfulfilled, and ultimately transform challenges into opportunities for greater self-awareness, growth, and authentic self-expression. I bring a balance of science and intuition to my counselling approach, and integrate years of experience in mind/body healing modalities and evidence-based therapy to effectively help my clients.

Do you often feel hijacked by insecurity, self doubt or anxiety? Are you longing for healthier connections and ease in your relationships? We are the way we are for good reasons. I validate and respect how you may have acquired certain behaviours and stances in order to deal with life’s challenges. At the same time, helping you adopt new, more constructive and effective patterns is one of the most exciting parts of therapy (for us both!). Whether you are dealing with a new concern or a long-standing issue, together we can identify the contributing factors so you can step forward with greater confidence and freedom.

With 25 years as a counsellor, I am positive that change is possible. Many of us simply need support and guidance to truly understand ourselves. During our time together, my passion, attention and focus will be dedicated to your wellness, and finding what works best to help you reach your full potential.

Are you looking for support in dealing with difficult life transitions, having a sense of overwhelm, or feeling a lack of meaning and purpose in life? Are you seeking a therapeutic process not only for yourself but for you and your partner as well? As a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapist and Registered Holistic Nutritionist, I can combine my skills to offer a truly integrated and holistic approach to the areas you are seeking support for.

There are times when we just don’t feel like ourselves. For some of us, this means feeling overwhelmed by our thoughts and emotions, while for others the disconnect can come from feeling nothing at all. This internal “ickiness” can show up through our emotions, thoughts, or in our body, and is often a scary, confusing, and unsettling experience. This intuitive feeling is typically caused by misalignment; whether it’s having conflict within ourselves, feeling out of step with those close to us, or feeling out of place in the world around us.

I believe that creating a safe, appreciative, and collaborative atmosphere is paramount in therapy. I am passionate about helping people explore their authentic selves, connect with their inner strengths, and use these strengths to create the changes that they desire. I believe people can use strengths and resources to not only overcome obstacles, but also to continually push themselves to achieve their ambitions. I love helping people embrace a growth mindset, view setbacks as opportunities for growth, and continuously strive towards being their best selves.

I was drawn to the role of therapist through my own transformative therapeutic and life journey. This life changing experience inspired me to first complete a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology in preparation for my Masters of Counselling degree. I have previously worked and supported people through the arts, not for profit and service sectors, with community at the core of my work. The constant threads being integrity, determination and connection. I believe my range of experiences has helped to expand my worldview and compassion for others.

I have been a mental health counsellor/therapist for over 25 years. In my experience, two very important factors in therapy are trust and safety. I believe trust is earned by the therapist and safety is experienced by the client as therapy progresses. What I have learned from my clients is that even when they experienced hopelessness at first, change was possible, and when there was change, no matter how small, they felt hopeful. My aim is to support clients and help them identify and achieve their short and long term goals, at school, at work, in their family and private lives.
