Find a Therapist

Anna Silverman

Hi there, my name is Anna and I am a holistic counselor interested in reducing disconnection in our communities; I think this is something important for men and boys. My clients have described me as warm, compassionate, humorous, grounding, accepting, assertive and direct.

My offerings includes individual counseling and group counseling. I pursue ongoing training in working with trauma on the individual, group and institutional levels.

In order to maintain high professional and ethical standards of care, I receive ongoing clinical supervision and attend a peer professional consult group based in the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy; a body-based talk therapy.
Outside work, you can find me with family and friends, hiking and patronising the arts.

Mr Douglas Matear

“Clients are the experts of their own lives, and wellness is not a state of being, but a state of action.”

Douglas Louis Matear is a long-time practitioner of EMDR but uses a variety of approaches that best suit the needs of his clients. His diverse work and life experiences suit him well in navigating difficult conversations. Early childhood trauma, the impact of abuse, anxiety, depression, and an anti-deficit frame are at the core of his work. Cross-cultural sensitivity and being a member of the LGBTQIA2P+ community have enriched his therapeutic approaches. He is further interested in stress reduction, mindfulness, the importance of exercise, and coaching clients to be the best they can be.

Joe Ramirez

I am a Certified Adlerian Psychotherapist, owner of ClearCounselling.ca, specializing in working with Men’s Sexual Health and Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse. I work with clients from an empowering approach to move through barriers in self, relationships, work, anxiety/depression, grief/loss, identity/meaning, communication, and sex.

Dr. David Kealy

My approach to psychotherapy is tailored to the particular problems, strengths, and experiences of each individual client. Although I am informed by my research – and the research and theories of others – on identity and personality, emotions and interpersonal relationships, and the effects of trauma, I base my work in therapy on an understanding of the individual. This individualized focus lends itself to a variety of issues that lead people to seek therapy. While every therapy is unique, I maintain an overall commitment to establishing a professional, safe, and comfortable therapeutic relationship to help clients address important personal goals and challenges.

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.

Isi Oboh

I work with men who are tired of holding it all in—overthinking everything, feeling pressure to always perform, or just feeling emotionally shut down. You don’t need to have it all figured out before you show up.

Therapy with me gives you space to slow down, actually hear yourself think, and get to the bottom of what’s going on.

I draw from approaches like CBT, ACT, EFT, and IFS—but I keep it practical and focused.

Together, we make sense of what’s driving your stress, patterns, and reactions—and build real strategies to help you take action. The goal is for you to feel more in control, make clearer decisions, and move through life with more confidence and direction.

Joel Martinflatt

I am humbled to have been working in the helping field since 2003. During this time, I have walked alongside many people as they navigate life, deal with hardships, and persevere. I see my role in supporting you as holding space for your hurt and distress while also assisting you in finding the change you hope to see within yourself and the relationships around you. I strive to create a partnership of trust and support and to shine a light on your strength and capacity. Typically, people come to see me because life is hard, but counselling does not need to be. I infuse our time together with hope, and laughter. A little bit about me is that I am a partner, father, weekend athlete and outdoor enthusiast.

Corey Chan

Michael McNally

It takes courage, reflection, and a few calming breaths to reach out for support when difficult life circumstances present themselves. Taking the important first step starts the journey toward applying new ways of approaching personal and relational difficulties. We will walk together in a collaborative relationship, test new skills that we learn along the way, and explore the possibilities!

Jen Simpatico

If you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or just tired of carrying it all on your own, you’re not alone. The truth is, mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum – the ways we learn to cope, express, or shut down are shaped by how we were raised, what was expected of us, and the messages we’ve absorbed about what it means to “be a man.”

In our work together, we slow things down and get curious about what’s really happening underneath the surface – not to overanalyze, but to help you make sense of your experience in a way that feels grounding and real. My style is collaborative, straightforward, and human. I meet you where you’re at, and together we work toward a steadier, more connected way of being in your life.

I am part of the Kelowna Vitality Collective team and sessions with me can be booked via text at 855-425-4310‬.
