Therapists in Vancouver

Trevor Gray
Trevor Gray
My practice is person-centred, trauma-informed, and draws largely from Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) – a relational and emotion-focused approach. I believe each person is the expert in their own life and inherently has the knowledge and resources necessary to guide the therapeutic process, make changes, and move toward their preferred ways of living. I am here to support you with this process.
I have a reputation for being non-judgmental and gentle in my approach, which promotes the sense of safety and openness necessary to collaboratively unpack and find relief from the challenges of life. Often, this involves building awareness of old emotional patterns and working together to develop and experience new and preferred patterns in session.

My goal is to create an open and nonjudgmental space for you to work towards your goals & your healing at your own pace. I work with issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, identity, life stress, racism/discrimination, and more. I work from an approach called Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) which helps clients bring awareness to their underlying emotions and break the cycles that make them feel stuck. I offer virtual & in-person sessions in Vancouver, BC. Let’s start with a free phone consultation! You can contact me by email: [email protected] or check out my website for the online booking link.

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 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.

I’m a registered clinical counsellor and certified sexologist. A big part of my work is centred around understanding sexuality and relationships, and supporting clients as they move through the challenges that can show up in those parts of their lives.
My therapy style is rooted in being curious, authentic, and collaborative.I see therapy as a shared process, where we work together instead of me prescribing solutions. I use evidence-based approaches while also offering meaningful tools and takeaways you can actually use in your day-to-day life. I aim to create a space that feels comfortable and honest, where you can show up as you are and move at your own pace. I specialize in sex therapy, couples therapy, and trauma.

My approach to counselling depends greatly on you and your experiences. Our work will begin by understanding your story, experiences and the resulting life that you’re living. Through getting to know each other and hearing about your experiences, we will use the information revealed to begin resolving your issues – be it helping you understand existing problems, manage difficult symptoms or adopt healthier ways of living and relating.
I believe the best results come from a strong relationship and a willingness to change and challenge your self. If you feel ready to take these steps, please reach out to see if we’re a good fit to work together. Have a nice day.
