Hi, I am a registered clinical counsellor and psychological first aid provider whose counselling work integrates emotional, physiological and social avenues to achieve lasting positive change. I have supported those struggling with depression, addiction, anxiety, eating disorders, co-dependency, life transitions, emotional regulation, stress management, attachment disorders, self-harm, OCD and other mental health issues. Using a cognitive-behavioural approach (CBT), I work with clients to break and replace self-defeating thoughts and behaviours. Having been raised in a bicultural home, I also recognize the important, yet often difficult, demands placed by family and culture and jointly seeks ways to balance such needs.

Hello, my name is Stephanie and I am grateful to have been working in the field of health and human services for over 23 years. I am humbled to provide clinical counselling services to individuals, families, couples and groups. In all of my interactions I centre safety, collaboration, trauma-informed practice, cultural humility, and compassion. I hold a Masters in Counselling Psychology and a PhD with a  specialization in the field of substance use and addiction. I work alongside youth and adults involved with alcohol and/or other drugs and strive to meet people where they are at with both a strength-based and collaborative lens. My deep passion involves supporting family members and carers affected by substance use who may be seeking services in their own right, or a safe place to share their experience as they navigate the rollercoaster of loving a person involved with substances.

I am available to assist children, youth, adults, families, and couples experiencing stressors of mental health and/or substance use challenges, trauma, life transitions, health behaviour change, COVID, parenting/caregiving, grief and loss, or family conflict. I am available both in person and remotely.

I have worked successfully with a lot of men in my practice. I understand how hard it can be for men to seek help. At the same time I know from experience that there’s tremendous benefit involved for those men who take that first step. My counselling approach is about compassion and non-judgement. Whatever is happening for you will be accepted and faced together. From a stance of respect and an underlying core belief that you have the wisdom within you to overcome your challenges, I will support you in recognizing and engaging powerful resources both within you and around you. Counselling theories and methodologies I use include Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Trevor Gray

Trevor Gray

MSW, University of British Columbia
Years in practice: 5
Offers:  Remote Therapy

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 name is Kristen, I work from a trauma informed & intersectional feminist lens, recognizing the influence gender, sexuality and socio-economic status and culture can have on our experiences. I am passionate to work with men as I believe that feminism is for everybody, and men are also harmed by the harms of patriarchy, toxic masculinity and gender norms/expectations. I am an lgbtq2s+ and poly-friendly/ethical-non monogamy counsellor and am very enthusiastic about challenging heteronormative culture.

In addition to the framework I have shared, I also hold additional training in:
– EMDR
– Internal Family Systems (IFS)
– Psychedelic Integration & Embodied Inquiry
– Gottman (relationship therapy)

Feel free to reach out via email for a consultation.

There are times in life when each one of us will encounter challenges or difficult situations. In those times, it takes courage to reach out and ask for help, but we are all in this together, and there is help here. Being of service to another human being and finding a way to help is a privilege I am grateful for whenever it is presented to me. My goal is to do just that, to help my clients find a way to work through the challenges of life in a way that best suits who they are in a safe, non-judgmental and collaborative approach. You already have everything you need to be happy and overcome the obstacles life has put in your way. My job is to help you discover and develop those strengths.

I work online with couples and individuals across Canada (BC, YT, NWT, SK, MB, Nunavut) who want to live with more joy and meaning in their lives in spite of the trauma they’ve faced. Though the past can hold us back, it does not have to define us. The counselling I offer can help you process and integrate your past so that it doesn’t get so much in the way of you achieving what you want in life – whether that be progressing your life and career goals, deepening your relationships with others, processing grief and loss, becoming more confident in your personal identity, or managing and growing through depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. I work to connect you with your emotions and build concrete skills that will help you thrive.

Are you a couple looking to work through infidelity, sexuality, or just simply want the skills to better communicate and understand each other?

I work with individuals and couples, where I also consider the impact of trauma and culture in the issues you’re looking to be supported with.
