Find a Therapist

Clayton Andres

I provide therapy for adults and youth struggling with depression, anxiety, symptoms of trauma, and feeling directionless and purposeless in life. Having previously worked as a journalist, janitor, construction worker and kids’ camp counsellor, I know what it’s like to take time finding your way in life. I also understand the stigma around receiving mental health services and strive to provide confidential counselling. I tend to use evidenced-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). I also employs a client-centred approach to therapy, prioritizing efficient and effective therapy.

Brittany Sirtonski

Our biggest moments of crisis, when supported with care, consciousness, and insight, are in fact our greatest sources of personal growth and transformation. I help individuals to strengthen the resources they have within themselves, learn to navigate challenging and uncomfortable emotions and life experiences, and build resiliency to navigate through tough times. As you begin to more consciously navigate life’s ebbs and flows, I support you in moving towards a more comfortable, content and meaningful life.

Meena Hira

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.

Michael Gintowt

Pragmatic and Solution Oriented. First, I clear up any vague or unclear treatment goals or confusions. Before assuming that there is a problem based on faulty thinking, I review the basic life situation to make sure that basic human needs are being met. I take into account any impulses and direction that come from the deeper, more authentic Self (psycho-spiritual issues). When indicated, I will work with dreams, metaphor, and imagination. On a good day, I help people make the necessary changes to their inner and outer worlds, so their goals are met.

Cory Stewart

To best understand and identify the complex patterns involved in our thoughts and behaviours, simply limiting ourselves to labels of perceived symptoms (i.e. diagnoses) misses out on the true human experience. Through a high degree of curiosity, intrigue, and empathy we are able to subvert our own expectations and identify what may otherwise be lying just under the surface. Perhaps the hidden and uncomfortable truths that continue to cause distress.

This is the strength of a curious approach. Not only do we uncover and address the underlying concerns for the benefit and growth of the client (you), but the counsellor is naturally invested by the intrigue and collaborative discoveries being made, by virtue of their own burgeoning curiosity.

Ashkan Rahmani

I’ve had the privilege to work with people from many walks of life, across a broad range of concerns, including, grief and loss, life transitions, exploring gender and sexuality, depression and anxiety, intimate partner violence, relationship concerns, and social inequities. Co-creating peaceful, collaborative and respectful connections are central to my practice. I use many approaches: solution-focused therapy, triphasic trauma therapy, and specialize in Narrative therapy.

Arno Lowi

I focus on what works using practical, cutting-edge techniques to help you understand yourself and acquire the skills you need to improve your life. I collaborate with you to achieve greater joy, fulfilment, effectiveness, clarity and stability in your life. You really don’t have to do it alone anymore. I use direct, practical language and cut through jargon to quickly clarify confusion. Sessions with me are always productive. I train you to do things differently, so that you achieve better results in life. My clients really get better.

Erin Malki

My main focus is understanding the people I work with. I am curious about why we behave, think, and feel like we do and I want to help you know your life story more meaningfully. The most important relationship you can have is the one you have with yourself. My goal is to help people learn how to reconnect and rediscover themselves, with the aim of cultivating a more compassionate and understanding relationship with oneself, ultimately leading to a greater understanding of who you truly are. As a directive therapist, my approach is marked by a profound intuition, a keen attunement to others, and an unwavering sense of compassion. In our sessions, we’ll delve into the art of emotional regulation and fortify the mind-body connection.

Pam Paquet

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.

Shannon Gallagher

I work primarily with clients aged 10 and up. I work from an integrative approach to ensure that the methods I use work best for you and your concerns. I encourage open communication so that I do not use a method or intervention that is not working for you. I specialize in chronic illness/pain, trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, couples/sex therapy, lgbtqia2s+, and career counselling, however, I am trained to work with other concerns as well. If you would like a free consultation or to set up an appointment contact me now or visit my website for more information. I am fully licensed to see clients in BC (RCC) and NB (LCT-C), as well as SK, MB, NL, and The Territories (CCC).

Jennifer Schine

Counselling helps us unearth our internal compass, also called our inner intelligence, intuition, or higher self, so that we can relearn how to trust ourselves again. This is important work. Together, I will help you develop your capacity to respond to life’s circumstances and manage the discomfort that you are experiencing. Our pain, anxiety, sadness, love, and joy all have important information for us. They can reveal what is required of us to heal, grow, and even thrive.

My counselling services are collaborative, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed while rooted in a holistic approach (body/mind/spirit). I draw from various theoretical lenses, including Existential, Adlerian, Internal Family Systems, Jungian, DBT, and CBT.

Courtney Sung

Whether you are struggling with life transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, or depression, we are here to help. Life has many ups and downs and our counselling philosophy is to witness your journey and empower you to strive towards your goals. We may unpack past experiences through a trauma-informed lens, develop tools for managing emotions, or process current life challenges. Whatever your need is, we are here to help. You are unique and your counselling experience should be too.

David T Renaud

I work with men experiencing difficult problems. Such problems go by many names, and may be new or old, but all share the common trait of stubbornly obstructing our happiness. Yet despite the hardship they cause, our problems also carry essential insight about what is needed for their resolution. I work with you to reveal these insights, to gather their wisdom, and to transform them into opportunities for greater well-being and engagement with life. You can visit my website to easily book a free, unhurried conversation about the problems you’re experiencing, and the life you’d like to live. We’ll talk about ways to help you move toward that life, using approaches that feel natural, intuitive, and possibly even exciting.

Wes McVey

I specialize in working with men of all ages – particularly men with symptoms of ADHD, anxiety and depression – along with parents and couples.

I am a son, brother, husband, father, and counsellor. Before counselling, I worked mainly with young men as a probation officer over 12 years, and with adults at a residential drug and alcohol recovery program for five. I learned to listen first, and to build on clients’ existing strengths and motivation to help them change longstanding habits using evidence-based strategies. If you are ready to try a different approach and put in the hard work, then send me a message and we can talk about a plan.
