When clients work with me there is a guarantee that change will occur. This change does not have to be drastic or grand. It can come from a new or revised perspective, different level of awareness, change in reaction time or with a slight adjustment to feelings and thoughts behind the challenge. I focus on balancing the right model, the correct therapy and the appropriate strategies for each client. Because every client is different, the therapy and services provided should be as unique as the person(s) sitting across from me. I adhere to one philosophy with every client: if your comfort level is high, then you will do great work in therapy. This means the counselling process is driven by the client and based on their needs.

It’s tough to be a man. I know. I’ve been one all of my life. Whether it be emotional or sexual intimacy issues, depression, anxiety, self-esteem and the over-reliance on career, substances, money or sex, men can get lost in a thousand different ways. For 36 years now I have been counselling men and know this territory inside and out.

I provide counselling services in French and English for individuals in matters related to anxiety, depression, life transition, gender, grief, loss and suicide. My practice is founded on the belief that you are not the “problems” present in your life, and that, above all, you are greater than the sum of the events in your life. As my counselling approach is strength-based, Solution-Focused and Narrative-rooted, our conversations will identify, explore and honour the big and small ways you defy and resist “problems”, while re-authoring a deeper and richer version of your life and journey.

If you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or just tired of carrying it all on your own, you’re not alone. The truth is, mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum – the ways we learn to cope, express, or shut down are shaped by how we were raised, what was expected of us, and the messages we’ve absorbed about what it means to “be a man.”
In our work together, we slow things down and get curious about what’s really happening underneath the surface – not to overanalyze, but to help you make sense of your experience in a way that feels grounding and real. My style is collaborative, straightforward, and human. I meet you where you’re at, and together we work toward a steadier, more connected way of being in your life.
I am part of the Kelowna Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310.

I work with men who are carrying more than they show, and who are tired of holding everything in just to get through the day. If you’re feeling burnt out, disconnected, overwhelmed by stress, or having trouble showing up in your relationships the way you want to, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to keep doing this silently.
My approach is straightforward, supportive, and focused on helping you understand what’s going on beneath the surface so you can get back to feeling like yourself again — not a different man, just a less overloaded one. In our work together, we slow things down enough for you to breathe, think clearly, and reconnect with the parts of you that have been in survival mode for too long.
I am part of the Kelowna Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310.

Depending on your concerns, goals, and needs, I utilize a variety of clinical approaches and techniques to assist you. Approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused, Person Centred, Mindfulness and other modalities are customized to aid in your treatment.

If you feel like you keep running into the same wall — the same fights, the same stress, the same habits that you promised yourself you’d break — you’re not alone. A lot of men carry the weight silently and think they should “just figure it out” on their own, but that pressure is exactly what keeps everything bottled up.
My work focuses on helping men understand why these patterns keep repeating, and how to get unstuck without shame or judgment. Whether it shows up as stress, anger, anxiety, shutdown, relationship strain, or feeling like you’re not living up to your own potential, there is always something underneath the surface that is asking to be understood. You don’t need to have the perfect words or a polished story — you just need a place where you don’t have to keep pretending everything is fine.
I am part of the Surrey Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310.

I work online with couples and individuals across Canada (BC, YT, NWT, SK, MB, Nunavut) who want to live with more joy and meaning in their lives in spite of the trauma they’ve faced. Though the past can hold us back, it does not have to define us. The counselling I offer can help you process and integrate your past so that it doesn’t get so much in the way of you achieving what you want in life – whether that be progressing your life and career goals, deepening your relationships with others, processing grief and loss, becoming more confident in your personal identity, or managing and growing through depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. I work to connect you with your emotions and build concrete skills that will help you thrive.

Rim Yassine
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.
