I value all clients, but especially those who do me the honor of walking with them while, together, we find ways of converting failure into success, anxiety into contentment, depression into passion, and trauma into resilience.

Do you value relationships and feel you would like to be more confident in yourself? Our challenges can be our greatest teachers but they may feel overwhelming when we try to face them alone, especially if we have suffered through trauma. If you have emotional injuries in need of healing or a relationship you wish to bring closer, by exploring these issues we may uncover hidden resources and new possibilities. We may work through unconscious beliefs or hidden traumas along the way. By supporting ourselves in new ways, we can free ourselves from old fears and become more of who we truly are.

If you're on a healing journey, you've likely tried several types of therapy. Somatic work honours our interconnectedness and survival responses, and develops the neural scaffolding for new possibilities in life. People often come to me tired of psychoanalyzing themselves and are curious to explore new techniques. For some, somatic work is the solution they've been looking for. We work together to build a sense of safety and connection in the body. Using nervous system regulation, mindfulness, symbolism, and parts work, we build greater access to your own innate resources and inner wisdom. I'm delighted to deep dive with you!

In a world where we are constantly comparing ourselves to others and being told we should be different in some way, we often forget how good it feels to just be ourselves. Hi! I'm Sarah, and I'm passionate about helping individuals reconnect with their authentic selves. Sometimes, living a life that is incongruent with who you are can manifest as chronic anxiety, perfectionism, low self-esteem, fear of judgment, distrust of others, lack of intimacy in relationships, and people-pleasing, among other things. If you relate to any of this, feel free to stick around for a while!

I am a Queer Taiwanese-Canadian who currently resides on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, & Tsleil-Waututh nations - also known as the Vancouver Lower Mainland. My mission is to guide, advocate, and to help people who need support by empowering them to make informed decisions in their community. Growing up as someone who became the bridge between two cultures, I understand what it can be like to grapple with the challenges that come with integrating different values & boundaries. Communicating itself is difficult, nevermind the anxieties, shame, & guilt that may come up when there are language & cultural barriers.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In Canada, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or province where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
How much does therapy cost?
Some forms of mental health treatment (for example, seeing a psychiatrist, or seeing a psychologist in a government-funded hospital) are free under provincial health plans. Canadians who seek private counseling can typically expect to pay an average of $150 per session, although the actual price generally ranges between $100 and $3200 per session, depending on their location and the type of provider they select. Workplace benefits or private insurance plans often provide an annual counselling allowance, and some therapists offer sliding scale fees to clients who cannot pay full price.
