Therapists in Canada

Perienne Paulson

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.

As a therapist, I draw from my background in collegiate hockey to emphasize the importance of movement and building emotional capacity. Specializing in ADHD, emotional regulation, anxiety, depression, anger management, and domestic violence support, I approach therapy through a trauma-informed lens. My focus is on stabilizing and strengthening autonomic patterns, creating a safe and authentic space for your healing journey.
I offer in-person and online therapy.

I aim to create a non-judgmental space where the relationship between client and counsellor is built on trust and mutual respect. I see therapy as a journey—one that requires patience, empathy, and a deep respect for your unique story. My approach is person-centered, meaning I believe you are the expert on your own life. You’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m here to support and collaborate with you to find a path forward that truly fits who you are and what you need.

Feeling stuck in a rut of boredom and disinterest? Struggling to find motivation and energy? You’re not alone. At Krish Dhir Social Work and Psychotherapy Services, we understand the challenges men face when it comes to maintaining their mental well-being. Whether it’s work-related stress, global concerns, or just the monotony of daily life, we’re here to help.
If you notice that a loved one is showing any of the typical depression signs like oversleeping or not sleeping, tension, or uncontrollable anger (in the case of men) you should address the topic and let the person know that you care about them and that you are ready to listen when they are ready to talk.

Hello. If you struggle with emotion regulation, anger, anxiety and or sadness I’m here to help. Together we can unpack these emotions and explore the ways they are impacting your life and how to find relief.
My practice is informed by Somatic Experiencing (SE) which aims to gently resolve these aforementioned symptoms of stress that can accumulate in our bodies and nervous systems. Becoming aware of what we feel in our bodies can be a first step towards releasing those feelings and finding relief from the uncomfortable emotions. I am in ongoing SE training.

Over the years as a psychologist, I have learned that you can be good at working in many areas, but you can only be great at some, so I decided to gather a team of therapists whom I trust and that have unique skill sets and varying personality styles to compliment my own and provide other alternatives for you. My team supports all ages and concerns. Many of us enjoy working with men on ‘what it’s like being a man in this day and age’ stuff, as it’s a different landscape to navigate these days! Please check out my website to see all of us and how we can best assist you.

Hi, I’m Sylvia and I’m so glad you’re here! I believe at some point or another, we’ve all experienced something that has changed our life. That’s why it’s important within my practice to develop a space where you feel safe and supported. I want to create a strong therapeutic alliance, one where you have a voice and a place to be your true, authentic self. Everyone has the capacity to be resilient and I want our sessions to foster this inner strength. Our time together is ultimately your time. Since effective therapy doesn’t take a one-size-fits-all approach, I offer cognitive-behavioural therapy, DBT, EMDR, ART, narrative therapy, sand tray therapy and much more according to your needs.

Sue Noble
Sue Noble
For over 20 years, I’ve worked with men who carry more than most people will ever see — the weight of responsibility, pressure, loss, and anger that never quite finds a safe place to land. I’ve been in the helping profession since 1994, and my experience spans trauma, addiction, relationship breakdown, first responder burnout and compartmentalization, and the painful aftermath of reacting in ways that don’t reflect who you truly want to be.
Whether you’re working to manage anger, repair trust, or understand the roots of destructive patterns, therapy with me is about accountability without shame and healing without judgment. Together, we’ll work to uncover what’s driving your reactions, strengthen self-control, and help you rebuild from a place of integrity and calm strength.
No judgment. No jargon. Just real conversations that help you get back to yourself.
I am part of the Surrey Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310.

I practice an integrative therapeutic approach that draws from various evidence-based modalities to create a customized treatment plan for each individual. By combining elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), practicality, and client-centered techniques, I aim to provide a safe and collaborative space for clients to explore their challenges, develop coping strategies, and work towards personal growth and healing. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and a commitment to helping clients achieve their therapeutic goals.

It can be daunting attending therapy for the first time and talking about personal issues. Your relationship with your therapist is the most important factor in your success; you need to feel a connection in terms of communication, trust, comfort and safety during your sessions. I therefore offer a complimentary, no-obligation call so we can chat with no expectations or pressure. You do not fit in a pre-made mould and neither should your therapy. As such, I implement a blended therapeutic approach which is client-centered; this means you are in the driver’s seat at all times. I work only with proven, evidence-based approaches including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) & Solution Focused Therapy (SFT).
