Find a Therapist

Mr. Vijay Mann

People are unique individuals with unique experiences. We all bring distinct histories and concerns to therapy. I respect your story and your concerns, and will provide support in a way that will work for you.

Therapeutic approaches will incorporate a variety of principles and concepts to create the ideal therapy for clients. This is meant to meet client’s specific needs and address individual challenges. This holistic approach includes CBT, EMDR, Internal Family Systems, mindfulness, among others.

Holistic healing addresses various aspects of our lives that are often intertwined-physical health, mental health, social well-being, spiritual well-being, career concerns, etc. and incorporates research-based techniques and traditional wisdom.

Shannon Gallagher

I work primarily with clients aged 10 and up. I work from an integrative approach to ensure that the methods I use work best for you and your concerns. I encourage open communication so that I do not use a method or intervention that is not working for you. I specialize in chronic illness/pain, trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, couples/sex therapy, lgbtqia2s+, and career counselling, however, I am trained to work with other concerns as well. If you would like a free consultation or to set up an appointment contact me now or visit my website for more information. I am fully licensed to see clients in BC (RCC) and NB (LCT), as well as SK, MB, NL, and The Territories (CCC).

Scott Arner

For 18+ years I have assisted adults struggling with mental health issues, substance use, trauma, anger, grief, as well as isolation and disconnection. I use a collaborative approach with clients to develop treatment plans, and goal setting. You know your experience — your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours — better than anyone else. I incorporate mindfulness into my therapy practice to aid in anxiety reduction, productivity, self-awareness and confidence. I have studied and include in my practice other approaches such as cognitive behaviour therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, secular Buddhism, narrative, Imago (for effective couples’ communication) and emotion-focused therapy.

Dr. David Kealy

My approach to psychotherapy is tailored to the particular problems, strengths, and experiences of each individual client. Although I am informed by my research – and the research and theories of others – on identity and personality, emotions and interpersonal relationships, and the effects of trauma, I base my work in therapy on an understanding of the individual. This individualized focus lends itself to a variety of issues that lead people to seek therapy. While every therapy is unique, I maintain an overall commitment to establishing a professional, safe, and comfortable therapeutic relationship to help clients address important personal goals and challenges.

Linnea Saltel

In my work as an RCC, my approach to wellness is holistic and trauma-informed; I strive to consider the many factors that contribute to your overall well-being. I work collaboratively and take a strengths-based approach that honours your own unique skills and resources. In our work together, one of my main goals is to create safety in our relationship in which you will be met with warmth, compassion, and validation.

I’m experienced with trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationships, and career. I often incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP), and Internal Family Systems (IFS).

Paul Brennan

I am a private practice psychologist focusing on depression, anxiety, anger and related mood issues. Overall, my approach is more on the structured side. I approach therapy as a set of moves that anybody can learn in order to help themselves work with thoughts, emotions and behaviours. Although history can be important, the main focus of my work is here and now, because that’s the only time when change can happen.

Keely Honeywill

I practice from an anti-oppressive, intersectional feminist, and trauma-informed lens. To be grounded in anti-oppressive practice from an intersection feminist lens means recognizing and examining the harmful systems that impact individual’s mental health. Pain and suffering are not created in a vacuum, but rather experienced as a result of the unjust systems that influence daily living. These influences can include patriarchy, capitalism, colonialism, heteronormativity, and prescribed gender norms.

Joel Martinflatt

I am humbled to have been working in the helping field since 2003. During this time, I have walked alongside many people as they navigate life, deal with hardships, and persevere. I see my role in supporting you as holding space for your hurt and distress while also assisting you in finding the change you hope to see within yourself and the relationships around you. I strive to create a partnership of trust and support and to shine a light on your strength and capacity. Typically, people come to see me because life is hard, but counselling does not need to be. I infuse our time together with hope, and laughter. A little bit about me is that I am a partner, father, weekend athlete and outdoor enthusiast.

Mark Smith

I’m a Family Systems Therapist who has been in practice since 1988. I work with men from a family of origin or a family systems approach. This means, in part, that I think of men and their emotional functioning within a systems framework. I think about how their sense of themselves, and their emotional function has been shaped by the relational dynamic of their friends and family, past and present. This then contributes to emotional health symptoms like depression.

Rim Yassine

I work with adults—particularly men and queer/trans clients—who feel exhausted by coping alone, disconnected from themselves or others, or under pressure to “hold it together.”

My therapeutic approach is trauma‑informed, relational, and integrative. I draw from somatic therapy, attachment‑based work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and existential and narrative approaches.

Sessions are paced collaboratively, with close attention to nervous system regulation, safety, and consent. Rather than pushing for insight or change before readiness, the work unfolds in a grounded and steady way that supports lasting integration and deeper self‑trust.

I offer remote therapy across British Columbia and Ontario.

Ava Kottmeier

I support people who have been feeling overwhelmed and want to get back in touch with their values, feel safe in their bodies, and live a meaningful, empowering life. My work is trauma-focused and I have experience working with anxiety, depression, identity, relationships, sex, and more. I am a queer, neurodivergent therapist and my services are available through my private practice and with the BC Society for Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse. Learn more on my website.
