Counselling Service in Vancouver
Untangle Thoughts. Move Forward Clearly
Explore the root of your struggles—relational, emotional, or generational—and move forward with support that addresses your whole self.
Counselling is more than just talk. It’s a supportive, personalized process that helps you understand yourself, work through what’s holding you back, and build tools to navigate life with more clarity and confidence.
Our approach is holistic and trauma-informed. We look at the full picture—your thoughts, body, emotions, relationships, and past experiences. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, long-term stress, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck without knowing why, we meet you where you are.
We integrate traditional and alternative therapies—like somatic work, breathwork, depth psychology, and evidence-based methods like CBT and DBT—to support real, lasting change. It’s not about quick fixes. It’s about helping you feel more connected to yourself and equipped to move forward.
Our Holistic Counselling Services Approach
-
Depth Psychology

Deeply reconnect with who you really are and find purpose. Feel more connection in your relationships and the world around you with unique opportunities for learning, awakening, and healing.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Through CBT we can help you to build awareness of triggering thoughts that lead to challenging emotions and unwanted behaviours. Change maladaptive patterns of thinking and behaviour and improve your mood utilising evidence-based techniques.
-
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
A subset of CBT, this mindful cognitive-therapy based approach gives you the opportunity to become aware of your thoughts and emotions without judgement. A collaborative modality aims to support you in participating fully and attain emotional regulation, build confidence and resilience, and improve your interpersonal effectiveness in relationships.
-
Internal Family Systems
In a safe space, go deeper into your personal growth and development as you unfold truths about the Self. The aim is to help discover roles and parts within your family systems that may be leaving you feeling stuck. See rapid changes with the awareness and integration of your internal family system!
-
Trauma Informed
Are you struggling with the big T? Healing is possible and we care about creating a safe, attentive, and patient approach while you uncover and grow through painful realities. You shouldn’t need to disclose a trauma history to ‘earn’ trauma-informed care. Trauma-informed care is our standard.
Medicine-Enhanced Transformative Mind-Body Therapies
Integrated Ketamine Assisted Therapy (iKAT)
We blend self-care, mindfulness, and psychotherapeutic approaches into a series of sessions with a trained ketamine therapist.
Psychedelic Integration
Working with you to identify tools and strategies that are individual to you and will support you in your process of meaning making after a psychedelic experience to bring back to your everyday life.
Psychedelic Assisted Therapy (PAT)
This is where psychedelics may come in to help you, by adding them as a therapeutic tool to support your nervous system to shift away from ingrained patterns of thought and behaviour, and to be more accepting of changes.

What Our Patients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
For any questions or enquiry feel free to Call us or Schedule an appointment.
How do I know if I need counselling?
If you’re feeling emotionally exhausted, repeating patterns in relationships, struggling to cope with stress, or just want to better understand yourself, counselling can provide clarity, tools, and support.
Is counselling covered by insurance in British Columbia?
Many extended health benefit plans in B.C. cover services provided by Registered mental health providers. We can direct bill to benefit providers for practitioners registered as Psychologists and Social Workers. For services provided by Counsellors, clients need to pay for the service and submit the receipt to their benefit provider for reimbursement. It’s best to check directly with your insurance provider about your specific coverage and claim process.
What if I can’t afford regular counselling sessions?
We understand the current cost of living in Vancouver can be overwhelming. We aim to keep counselling accessible and will provide you with options and help connect you with resources that suit your budget. Please reach out to discuss.
How is counselling different from talking to a friend or family member?
While personal support is important, counselling provides a confidential space with trained professionals who can help you explore patterns, understand root causes, and offer practical, evidence-based tools for change.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on your goals and concerns. Some people benefit from short-term support, while others find long-term work helpful. We’ll regularly check in on progress and adjust as needed.
