Therapists in Vancouver, BC

Sexuality is not just about feelings, thoughts, desires, and behaviour. It is influenced by cultural, biological, psychological and religious components. While sexuality can be liberating, it is also one of the hardest parts of life to navigate. I acknowledge all the different ways an individual and/or community can be affected. I provide counselling to all individuals, with experience working with the 2SLGBTQI+, poly, sex work and neurodivergent communities.

“There is always something going on, Subha!” That’s a very popular phrase I’m hearing from my clients. Yes, there is! This is life and as long as we live it, there will always be an area that needs improvement or a challenge that needs to be resolved. How many of us have a perfect looking life from the outside but feel unhappy or unfulfilled inside? In our sessions, you will gain a new perspective that you could not if you were just on your own. Previously faced obstructions may now appear as opportunities. You don’t just learn how to cope, but you will uncover new strengths.

Currently accepting new male clients. I support Men heal their relationship with themselves and to those who are in their life. The relationship you have with yourself is the most important one, how you communicate with yourself will be a direct reflection of how you communicate with the world around you. You may have built up internal defences to block you from feeling your emotional experience from a young age out of a need to survive and fit in, all the while boosting your performance-based esteem. We work on your relationship with yourself first and then to those around you in your life to start the reconnection process.

As one of Vancouver’s only health professionals that is a qualified counsellor, fitness coach and educator, I offer people a broader perspective that engages them in personal health projects that go deeper into what actually motivates them or prevents them from feeling the way they want to. The work of psychological growth, physical well-being and emotional healing is my life project and I am passionate about helping others follow their own path of discovery.

Welcome :) I'm Amenda, a Registered Social Worker (RSW) with a Masters of Social Work (MSW) from the University of British Columbia, and a Bachelor of Arts (BA) from Simon Fraser University. Over the years I have successfully helped clients with the complex challenges that life presents, and I would be honoured to be a part of your therapeutic journey.

In our sessions, I strive to provide a non-judgmental and open space where you can express yourself and explore your inner world so that we can create change together. While it is true that counselling can be challenging, I also believe it can and should include humour, hope, and be a comfortable place for you to learn and grow. If you are in a place where you are ready to make a change, I will support you to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD/ADD, parenting, relationship challenges, grief & loss, trauma, psychedelic integration, & career.

There comes a time when we realise our past patterns and tools aren't helping us move forward in life. My goal is to provide you with the space and guidance to explore how your patterns of behaviour, past trauma, and experiences formed the person you are today. We will work together to explore past patterns, build healthy coping strategies, and strengthen resilience. Whether you’re looking to explore past experiences, build concrete tools to cope, or build healthy relationships with your loved ones, I provide an individualised, trauma-informed approach to therapy to adapt to your unique needs.
