Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) Therapists in Vancouver, BC

Do you feel STUCK? When we feel stuck we start to question our life’s purpose and often start to doubt past and future decisions. Feeling stuck can often lead to confusion, hopelessness, fear, paralysis and lack of motivation. These experiences can generally cause anxiety, panic, depression and generally a low quality of life. Although these feelings can be incredibly painful and may lead you to feel helpless, it’s important to remind yourself that with the right support, you can change your life.

My primary aim in therapy is to guide and empower clients to enact meaningful changes in their lives with the ultimate goal of reducing suffering and improving quality of life. My approach is collaborative and non-judgemental, with a focus on understanding together how the way we think, behave, or relate to others can sometimes interfere with living a full and meaningful life. I strive to bring my authenticity, humour, and curiosity into my work. I am committed to maintaining a culturally-responsive approach to the work that I do, and welcome clients from racialized and historically marginalized backgrounds.

I am an individual and family therapist who works with adults, youth and families who are feeling overwhelmed. Common struggles include social and emotional challenges, mental health and/or substance use concerns. I work to empower you to face these challenges in practical, manageable steps, building on your inherent strengths.

If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or have been through trauma, you might be feeling frustrated, hopeless, or overwhelmed trying to figure out how to address these difficulties. Or maybe you are in a relationship and are finding it difficult to communicate, resolve conflict, or connect with your partner and you've tried everything you can think of. In my practice, I can support you in identifying any patterns/behaviours that may keep you or your partner stuck and help you learn tools and strategies to work towards improving your mental health, well-being, and your relationship.

As a therapist, I am very detail-orientated and will utilize that ability to take the time to get to know your story and who you are without judgment. Others describe me as compassionate, ambitious, and honest, with a side of dry humour. I have experience working with a diverse range of clients including children, youth, adolescents, young adults, and adults.

I specialize in psychological assessment and treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

I also provide treatment for a range of anxiety concerns, including perfectionism, panic attacks, phobias, and social anxiety. My approach is grounded in CBT, ACT, and compassion-focused therapy.

Hi! I'm Dominique. Life can get tricky and I understand that speaking to someone about it may be difficult. Finding the right words to describe how you feel or what you have experienced can be challenging, and it should not be something that one should have to experience on their own. With my understanding that each individual has their own unique story and experiences, I tend to take a person-centered in counselling in which I alter my clinical skills to fit the needs and preferences of my client. I am attentive to each client's biological, environmental, and social factors and consider them when applying therapeutic approaches.

Are you a driven individual, a doctor, high achiever, or business professional, who is constantly striving for excellence in every facet of your life? Do you feel like all do is work, but you're never truly feeling satisfied? Do you find that your pursuit of success often comes at the cost of your own well-being and fulfillment? Do you just want some space to breathe and actually figure out what you truly want? I'm here to offer you a safe harbour amidst the storm—a space where you can navigate the complexities of your demanding profession without sacrificing your mental and emotional well-being.

If you are reading this, then you have taken the first courageous step in a long journey of healing and self-discovery… Or maybe this journey began long ago, but now you are looking for a new direction. As a counsellor, it would be a privilege to witness and support you on this journey. I specialize in supporting male clients who are new to therapy. Men who I have supported have a unique set of needs that if properly addressed make therapy more productive and contribute to long-lasting change. Here are some common reasons for coming to therapy and topics we can address in our first session:

Life is filled with challenges, both visible and hidden, that can impede our growth and fulfillment in life. Whether internal or external, anchored in the past, present or future, these challenges can burden us with anxiety, depression, overwhelm, self-doubt, dread and distress. However they show up, whatever their origins, I believe life’s challenges are meant to shape us, not define us.

We have the potential for immense resilience and wisdom. We are not, however, built to face all of life’s challenges on our own. There are times in life when we find ourself lost, stuck and unsure of how to move forward. I offer to walk alongside you for this part of your journey, help you discover strength, see a clearer path, and find your footing. Together we can begin to make sense of why certain issues may be arising, what isn’t working anymore and new ways of coping and responding to the challenges you face.

Are you bothered by intrusive, upsetting thoughts that cause you anxiety? Do you find yourself worried and anxious when you'd like to be more comfortable? Has your life changed because of situations you avoid or anxiety you feel forced to endure? There is hope - you can learn new tools and skills to help you better manage anxiety provoking situations. You can gain greater insight into how anxiety works and what you can do to bring yourself back to a more centered and grounded experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can help you learn new strategies to cope more effectively with anxiety and mood difficulties.
