Video Game Addiction Therapists in V5Y

Life is a journey filled with both joyous peaks and challenging valleys. If you find yourself navigating through the complexities of these valleys, know that seeking counselling is a courageous and empowering choice, and I am here to support you. People seek counselling for a myriad of reasons, each journey as unique as the individual taking the first step. You might be facing the weight of anxiety, the shadows of depression, or the echoes of past traumas. Life's challenges can be multifaceted, stemming from personal relationships, work-related stress, existential questioning, or unforeseen transitions.

In my practice, I focus on helping individuals and couples navigate emotional ruts and break free from negative communication patterns. By delving into your triggers and their roots, I aim to cultivate a more compassionate outlook toward yourself and others. Let's work together to transform your perspective and foster healthier relationships.

The Vancouver Psychology Centre is a group of like-minded professionals here to provide evidence-based assessment, consultation and treatment to all ages who seek greater happiness and meaning in their lives. Our Psychologists, Counsellors, Art Therapists and Youth Care Workers use the science of psychology and apply it to the goals of positive emotion and connection. We highlight people's strengths and use Positive Psychology's science and techniques to maximize positive emotion, virtuous personal characteristics, fulfilment with life and to improve connection with others.

I have been in private counselling practice for 15 years, and in wellness, personal development and the media for 25 years. My practice draws self-referring, high-functioning adults/couples with addiction, phobia, anxiety, depression and attachment disorders affecting their lives beyond their historical, current or perceived ability of self-control. In couples, I usually begin individually to create safety and self-awareness, then back together towards clear self-advocacy, expression and to build trustful communication. EMDR in the couple context can clear a lot of old trauma and wounded pattern-associations that mire us in destructive relational dynamics.

Change is hard, especially when you are doing it on your own. As a psychotherapist and clinical counsellor, I'm passionate about using effective, evidence-based treatments to help clients overcome life challenges, improve emotional wellbeing, and build the life they want. I specialize in working with clients who struggles with emotions, self-judgements, overcontrol, and habitual people pleasing. I work from a compassionate, person-centered approach that focuses on your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I believe that everyone is doing the best they can AND have the potential to grow, heal, and move towards a life they want.
