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.

Through my work, I realized how much pressure people experienced in their day-to-day lives and the effects this had on their relationship with themselves and others. Through my therapeutic work, I observed the consequences of society placing such a strong emphasis on perfectionism, a hyper-vigilance on “fixing” oneself, and external merit. Seeing adults, teens, and children struggling to understand their identity, self-worth, and values motivated me to gain expertise in various therapeutic modalities. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, and trauma, self-worth, identity, and relationships, and narrative as well as mindfulness approaches.

I believe in using our Diversity as an instrument to support people in their growth, rather than as a weapon to hurt ourselves and others. Therefore, I am committed to providing a respectful, safe, and welcoming space regardless of age, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, socioeconomic condition, disability, or religion.
I bring different theoretical approaches to my practice, such as Psychoanalysis, Family Dynamics Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focus Therapy (CFT) and Traditional Indigenous Cultural practices. Services in English and Spanish, in-person or video sessions, and a sliding scale as needed.

Warm, accepting, inclusive and practical best describes my personal therapeutic style. I value careful listening, empathy, professional ethics and accountability, believing that all people possess intrinsic worth and have the capacity to realize this and make meaningful change in their lives.
I welcome clients with diverse backgrounds and needs, striving to cultivate a therapy space that is safe for all. I also recognize that men face unique challenges and barriers around seeking mental health support; my approach is to meet you where you’re at, at the pace that is right for you. Thank you for your interest in my practice. I look forward to hearing from you!

Bruce Avery
Bruce Avery
My name is Bruce Avery and I work as a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a Certified Sex Therapist (AASECT) and I’m the Founder of Avery Therapy Centre & Stellium Sex Therapy. I work with a wide range of people who may seek increased perspective, self-understanding, and clarity in their everyday lives. I also work with people who may feel that anxiety, depression, or past trauma is hindering them from achieving their goals.
When working with me, you can expect to be treated with respect, care, and compassion. It is my intention to develop a foundation of trust and security and an environment in which you can explore your inner world and feel more empowered. My practice is trauma and culture informed.

I specialize in two areas. Men’s sexual health and relationship concerns, where we co-examine the psychological, biological, social, and behavioural factors behind sexual issues or relationship insecurities that are creating barriers and holding men back from connecting.
I also help men explore work and life transitions: stressors that make people resistant to change. For some, it can be examining their “blind spots” that prevent them from recognizing the right time to make a transition.
I use a strengths-based approach to move you from where you are to where you want to be. I provide a caring and nurturing space for clients to express feelings, emotions, behaviours, and relationships.

In my work with men, I provide a down-to-Earth space to sort through what’s happening emotionally, mentally, and relationally — without shame or pressure. Whether your goal is to change specific behaviours, communicate more effectively, understand triggers, or reconnect to yourself and the people around you, we move at a pace that feels safe and workable.
Ultimately, my job is to support you in building a life where you feel more grounded, more connected, and more able to trust yourself — in your relationships and in who you’re becoming. If you’re ready to feel more like yourself again — calmer, clearer, more connected, and more in control of your life — I’m here to walk alongside you in that process.
I am part of the Vancouver Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310.
