Therapists in Vancouver, BC

Addiction is a complex and challenging battle, but it's important to remember that recovery is not only possible but within reach for everyone. I firmly believe that every person deserves a chance to rewrite their story, and that's why I am passionate about providing comprehensive and personalized counseling to support individuals in their recovery process. Through a combination of evidence-based approaches, compassionate support, and a client-centered focus, I empower my clients to navigate the obstacles on their path to recovery.

I am a curious listener and a therapeutic connector. My purpose as a relationship therapist is to help you establish a reconnection to your authentic self by creating meaning out of stuckness. We are ALWAYS in relation to ourselves, to others. I believe there is a space opened for you to explore that new found sense of meaning and growth. In my approach, I seek to deepen the lost sense of connection through empowerment, courage, and vulnerability.

By cultivating a sense of togetherness, our team works with individuals living with chronic illnesses, and those experiencing anxiety, depression, grief & loss, burnout, trauma, and life transitions.

My relational and feminist approach to counselling emphasizes the mutual formation of people through their relationships. With it, I support you in finding your own self in the tangle of relations with friends, family, lovers, neighbours, co-workers, and others. Although we cannot immediately change the social structures around us, the therapeutic process helps you to navigate them with greater confidence, compassion, and care.

One of the most rewarding feelings in life is to feel a sense of ease and acceptance with who you are, despite your vulnerabilities. Like many others, it might be difficult for you to lean on others, yet you face challenges in managing your own emotions. Some days leave you feeling empty, and at times worry or anger may consume you. You may feel disconnected from others or who you once were. I have been in the education system for 15 years and have extensive experience working with a variety of people struggling with difficult family dynamics, anxiety, depression, separation, divorce, trauma, major life transitions, and abuse.

Life can be challenging and often we go through experiences, both internal and external, that leave us struggling and feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and alone. As a therapist, I hope to create a place for you to feel welcomed, accepted, and understood so that together we can take on some of the challenges you might be wrestling with. My aim is for you to find hope, healing, and transformation through our work together so that you may rediscover joy and no longer have to face these challenges alone.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed lately by your emotions and life demands? Do you sometimes feel like you have exhausted your coping resources and are stuck with where you are? If so, do not worry or judge yourself. We have all felt like this at some point in our lives. Let me introduce myself: I am a registered clinical counsellor (RCC) and am extremely passionate about building strong and trusting bonds with my clients in order to facilitate change and growth. I work from a supportive, curious, and nonjudgmental stance, focusing on your strengths and equipping you with the resources you need to have the life you want.

Consistent across my work is the belief that we come into this world whole, and that people don’t need to be fixed. As a relational therapist, I specialize in experientially working with self-discovery, relationship health, intimacy, and trauma. I find what is often missing in our lives are the deeply attuned connections where we feel seen, heard, and understood. The foundation of my therapeutic approach lies in identifying and integrating all the different parts that make up each person. We all contain multitudes and we are all in a constant process of unfolding.

Do you feel overwhelmed, pressured, worried, or trapped, disconnected, even absent from your own life? Are you feeling lost going through a transition, finding it challenging to see your path and place in the world? I'm here to support you deal with the anxiety and stress, to show you techniques that can help you reconnect to yourself, find your breath and needed insight, and to feel the ground again.

Journeying inward is not always an easy process, but at some point, the call within us to move beyond our suffering and seek connection with ourselves gets louder and harder to ignore. Whether you are starting out on this journey or a seasoned traveller- all are welcome! When conscious and unconscious beliefs are left unexamined, they can manifest in both the mind and body, influencing the psyche in evident and subtle ways. Our work together involves bringing those parts to life and examining them safely without judgment. When we can meet the person you are behind them, change becomes possible.

You can manage unwanted thoughts, emotions, and behaviours; feel less anxious and more able to relax; and gain control of your life. Take the next step toward feeling more calm and confident. Understand how adult ADHD or difficult experiences play a role in your life so you can set goals and practice tools that work best for you. Members of 2SLGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities welcome.

Do you struggle with intense emotions ? You are not alone. I am here to walk you through the process of understanding your emotions and triggers, finding new ways to deal with the present and understand the impact of your past negative life experiences. For over 10 years I have helped people just like you find their way to a life of greater emotional balance.

I have always marvelled at the resilience of the human spirit. As human beings we have the innate drive to not only survive life's challenges, but to transform, grow and thrive as a result of them. I would be honoured to assist you in learning how to tap in to your own inner wisdom to discover your unique path to thriving and to assist you in becoming a conscious creator of your ideal life.

I have over 15 years experience working with depression, stress and anxiety and eating disorders of all kinds. These underlying dysfunctional patterns can take many forms, therefore the treatment approach may vary however evidence based CBT is the most effective treatment in these areas, especially when it is paired in combination with psychodynamic, relational and hypnosis approaches also as needed. Healing is probable, and happens as a result of conscious daily actions and unconscious dynamics that shift as a result of this process. I work with individuals who are ready and willing to change there thinking to heal for life

Hi, welcome! I have been practicing counselling for seven years working with clients with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, self-esteem and personal growth. My Asian cultural background as well as my personal experience as an immigrant to Canada also afford me an insight into immigrant and second-generation ways of being as well as their mental health concerns.

I support folks to reclaim, explore, and practice coming back to our bodies, feeling feelings, expanding relational possibilities, and embodying permission and more choices toward dignity, aliveness, connection, tenderness, ease, and pleasure. I approach therapeutic work from healing-centred, intersectional feminist, harm reduction, and decolonial frameworks and practices, and draw from interpersonal neurobiology, parts work, politicized somatics, and lineages of energetic medicine.

You are often experiencing circular arguments, or a complete stand off when it comes to communicating, and it feels as if the love between you has all but disappeared. You are at a loss as to how to untangle the situation that you are in. Life is busy and stressful and something needs to change or your relationship could quite possibly be over. You want to feel the love again. You want to be able to talk to each other and be heard and understood. You want to wake up each day feeling calm and happy and excited for the future, knowing you and your partner are a team, in this journey of life together.
