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.

Welcome to finding your authentic self! I’m a collaborative and inclusive therapist who supports your healing, change, and growth using a variety of therapy models and tools. Viewing your identity and challenges through the lens of attachment, trauma, and relationships assists us with locating where you are and where you would like to go from here. I look forward to connecting with you about finding your path to self-discovery! Please note that email is the best way to get in touch with me.

Many men don’t talk about it openly, but feeling disconnected — from your partner, your emotions, or even from yourself — can quietly take a huge toll. Whether it shows up as withdrawal, shutting down, anger, overwhelm, ADHD-like overload, or not knowing how to express what you actually feel, the experience underneath is often the same: it’s lonely to carry life without feeling understood.
In therapy, I help men build the skills and inner foundation for healthier relationships — not just with others, but with themselves. I support clients navigating emotional shutdown, communication barriers, trauma, ADHD/ASD-related overwhelm, and the kind of quiet pain that rarely gets put into words.
I am part of the Chilliwack Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310.

He believes that feeling comfortable with bringing your whole self to your counselling sessions is a vital part of positive change.

I also work with caregivers to provide EFFT coaching to help better support your loved ones. I have extensive experience working with survivors of sexual and domestic violence. I strive to create a safe and inviting space for people to explore the different patterns in their lives.

Alexander Cahuas
Alexander Cahuas
I am a counselor and registered personal trainer who can combine mental health counseling with physical well-being. Our sessions will begin around understanding your present environment- what do we want to keep and what can we let go of. Next, what are you willing to try for your future as well as what has happened in your past. I combine my understanding of clinical practice philosophies (CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy) with Indigenous mental health perspectives and strategies. I believe well-being is a practice. To sustain and nurture this practice does take some practice and help. My role is to hear where you are at, provide alternative perspectives on challenges, and provide potential solutions we can practice.
