Spirituality Therapists in Vancouver, BC
I'm not here to instruct you on how to live your life or to criticize the way you already do. I'm here to give you a safe space to express yourself and let go of the burden of having to carry it all alone. You are likely here at this time in your life because you are sick of telling yourself stories that don't suit your best interests or the best version of yourself. Reconnecting with the part of you that knows you deserve to be happy is my aim in helping you. In our work together I will help you get in touch with your own knowing and tap into your strengths.

I work with life transitions, anxiety/nervous system dysregulation, identity or career shifts, spiritual disconnection, and compassion fatigue, with a focus on women’s empowerment & spirituality.
I strive to make therapy like a sanctuary—safe enough to drop the masks, so the hidden parts of you can be seen and heard, maybe for the first time. My approach is nervous-system-informed, intersectional feminist, and non-pathologizing. Grounded in neuroplasticity, I believe the brain & nervous system are built to heal, it just requires continued attunement.

Do you feel like your sensitivity is "too much," or your creativity is misunderstood?
Is your nervous system "on edge," trying to survive in a fast-paced, achievement-driven world?
Do you struggle to be fully seen?
I work with people who are deeply creative, sensitive, and beginning to awaken to their own inner voice. At the same time, they may struggle to stay connected to themselves in a demanding, high-pressure environment. Overwhelmed by the demands of work and relationships, it can become difficult to trust their own inner voice.

Not all challenges respond to standard interventions. I work with a broad range of clients, amongst them those whose fast or layered thought processes, heightened sensitivity, or visionary orientation can place them out of step with conventional models. This includes professionals in high-responsibility roles balancing visible leadership with private complexity, as well as reflective individuals seeking a path that honours their actual experience.

Men need better mental health support. The weight of responsibility and lack of support can cause men to tough it out, leading to internal struggles and unaddressed mental health issues. At The Stigman Group we address head-on the stigma surrounding men's mental health - for men, by men. We believe that strong, capable men are essential for a thriving society. By providing tailored support and empowering men to prioritize their mental well-being, we aim to help them reclaim their manhood with resilience, authenticity, and strength. It's time to break the stigma.

I have recently completed a doctorate in counselling and psychotherapy with a focus on integrating spirituality in psychotherapy.
Originally from the East coast, I have been involved in coaching and counselling for the past 30 years. I have worked with clients who are dealing with self esteem issues, career transitions, relationship issues, grief and loss, anxiety, depression and addiction. My clients want assistance in seeing how life can be better with new possibilities of how they see themselves and their current situation.

I provide a warm and quiet place for you to uncover the wisdom in your life. The struggles we face are opportunities to discover new horizons of meaning, perspectives that give way to purpose. I believe in building trust and rapport in the therapeutic relationship, so that each client can claim their healing and forge their paths forward. I work with those who struggle with stress, anxiety, life transitions, lifestyle (sleep, exercise, routines) and relationship issues. I also work with couples who struggle to change negative patterns in their relationships.

My approach is informed by mindfulness, Buddhist psychology, and contemplative practices. In my work with clients I tend to be open, creative, collaborative and down-to-earth. I specialize in anxiety and relationship issues, often working with individuals and couples who feel lost or trapped in difficult patterns. I believe that within every challenge lies valuable insight waiting to be unearthed. With greater clarity comes the freedom to live authentically and pursue meaningful connections - within oneself, with others, and with life.

I work at the crossroads of culture, mental health, and social-economic integration. My counselling is for people who want to belong while staying true to themselves – especially racialized first and second-generation Canadians who may feel torn between worlds.
Our background is not a footnote in our lives; it shapes our strengths and struggles, and how and where we find home. With years of learning and teaching language, religion and culture, and lived experience across the Arab world, South and Southeast Asia, and Canada, I help clients identify tools as well as traps in their heritage and discover their authentic selves.

Do you feel stuck in patterns that are hard to change, even though part of you knows something needs to shift? You may feel anxious, overwhelmed, shutdown, or caught in cycles of self-doubt, people-pleasing, or relationship struggles. At times, this can show up as feeling not good enough, too much, unlovable, or alone. You may find yourself overthinking, overexplaining, overgiving, struggling to communicate, to set boundaries, and feeling disconnected from others and yourself. These patterns often have deeper roots in early life experiences, relational wounds, or ways your nervous system learned to cope and protect you.

Are you holding it together on the outside but on the inside it feels VERY different? Do you feel gripped by anxiety, self-doubt, anger, fear, or numbness? Having thoughts that you are not enough, or too much, or that you should be perfect? There is a reason this is happening. I believe change happens through compassionate accompaniment in intentionally held spaces that allow us to explore and integrate parts of ourselves that are causing inner tensions. Through an accepting and supportive environment therapy helps to regulate emotion and promote lasting change.

Spirituality Counsellors
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.
What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.
Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.
How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
