Therapists in British Columbia

Ponderosa Counselling Services focuses on counselling adults and adolescents through anxiety, depression, trauma resolution, and relationship issues while moving toward balancing the felt sense of emotions in body and the rational processes we use to interpret ourselves in the world.

Welcome! This is a space where your unique experiences are heard, validated, and held without judgment. Here, you get to come just as you are. I work with diverse adult-aged individuals, couples, and families, offering a person-centred, compassion-focused, collaborative space for healing and self-discovery. Empathetic support is provided, fostering a deeper understanding of our human experiences including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, emotional regulation, chronic pain, injuries, identity issues, life transitions, LGBTQ+ related issues, adverse religious experiences, childhood trauma, and family reunification.

At some point, we all hit a wall where self-help books and call-in therapy radio shows are no longer enough. Whether you are finding your way through grief over the loss of a loved one, experiencing a transition in your life, struggling in relationship or career, there is no reason why you have to go it alone. Believing a counselor must work on healing their own issues first, I have worked thru my own struggles in all of these areas. As a result I bring that learning to help many others.

I specialize in trauma and relationships. Adult childhood/adulthood trauma, self esteem, confidence and codependency. I also work with couples and families around unresolved attachment, infidelity, sexuality and unconscious toxicity. Other areas of focus: anxiety, depression, procrastination and loss of motivation. I am a registered clinical counsellor RCC, available in person and online. I look forward to working with you to unblock healing, resiliency and health. Let's connect and say "enough" to intense chaos and debilitating struggles. Coverage accepted: private, ICBC, Medavie Blue Cross, Canada Life, Crime Victims Program

Jasmine’s approach to counselling focuses on creating a compassionate and non-judgmental environment for her clients. She believes that individuals are experts of their own lives - with her job being to work alongside and support her young clients to soar. Offering accessible and personalized child, youth, caregiver, and family counselling sessions - both in person and/or virtually from the comfort of your own home.

I offer individual, couples, and family counseling based on a holistic, integrative, and meaning-centered approach.

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor since 2002 with BCACC. I understand that life is no perfect and challenges are along the way. With the belief that everyone has potential to thrive, my compassion, professional ethics, positive attitudes and over 25 years of counselling experiences have brought great commitment to my counselling career. I have worked with people from all walks of life, immigrants, refugees and international students for the past many years. And I am humble to have the privilege to be by their side during their challenging times.

I am passionate about working with those who have suffered extensive trauma, including sexual abuse and human trafficking. I integrate my training in clinical counselling, trauma therapy and art therapy to offer support tailored to address individual needs. I provide a relational approach where compassion and connection are central, working on the premise that we are wounded within the context of relationship and we heal within relationship. I believe in empowering people to discover they have within them all they need to heal.

Currently accepting new clients. Areas that are of particular interest to me include family of origin issues, anger (and other emotions), relationship discord or violence, addiction, anxiety, and depression. I am predominantly a general practitioner and as such am most interested in working with people through whatever issues they feel are most important. ​I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy. I am also an approved service provider with the Crime Victim Assistance Program (CVAP).

My years of experience as a counsellor and supervisor have taught me that when a person is ready for change, change is possible. So if you, clinician or client, are ready to seek insight, expand your personal growth, build communication or anxiety management skills, deepen your relationships, resolve long-standing trauma or move more smoothly through transition, I can help you on this journey. I developed expertise in helping people through myriad of challenging situations, school-related issues, family conflicts and persistent trauma.

Our journeys are not a straight line. Bends and breaks can challenge us. But therapy can help you navigate these journeys in a healthy way. You deserve to be healthy in all aspects of life. You deserve the best life has to offer so you can live to your fullest potential. Holistic, culturally-appropriate, and growth-oriented counselling. No matter what your story or background is, counselling can help. I provide personal, couples, family, and group counselling, as well as counselling services through ICBC, Crime Victims Assistance Program, First Nations Health Authority, and Employee Assistance Programs (EAP).

The benefits of my approach lie in using different techniques, tailored to the client's unique personality. Some clients like a directive approach, they want to be guided, to be given an almost 'engineering' model explaining our inner life; some prefer a non-directive, client-centered approach, where they would explore their inner landscape with the therapist as a co-traveler. All clients have relational needs which need to be addressed to, and the therapeutic relationship provides safety, validation, 'repaired' parenting, mutuality, client's self-definition and empowerment. Helping clients practice autonomy is my passion!

I help my clients in the process of grief, trauma, life transitions and burnout. By integrating modalities such as Mindfulness, DBT, Somatic therapy and Internal Family Systems we are able to look at all aspects of the human experience. We can explore the impact these experiences have in your day-to-day life and the big picture. We will create an individualized and well-balanced approach to therapy by focusing on how you've been impacted, and develop tools and resources to support you in moving forward.

I am excited to work with people to find meaning in the messiness. I value collaboration, compassion, curiosity and openness — and I support connection, community and expression. I bring non-judgement and a deep thoughtfulness to the more unpleasant parts of human experience, and I encourage coming into relationship with these aspects, and exploring ways to create a more meaningful, fulfilling life. In my one-on-one counselling, I support you in moving through the discomfort that comes with exploring your life’s challenges. Our work together will offer ways to explore what brings meaning to your life and human relationships.

You were born as a perfect being and unfortunately, you may have had unpredictable, painful experiences that changed you. Who you were and how you perceive the world aren't the same anymore. You may feel lost, anxious, sad, alone, ashamed, guilty, afraid or always on alert. These life changing experiences could have included childhood bullying, seeing your caregivers argue, a health scare, seeing something terrifying or perhaps losing something you loved. You know your friends and family care, but they may not be able to offer the guidance that you need.
