Sarah Lally

I adopt a relational developmental framework to counselling, applying a trauma informed and anti-oppressive lens. My focus is on creating a warm, secure and trusting environment where you feel supported and seen. My instinct is to be curious about the impact of family, culture, community, religion, institutions and social norms on our development and relationships to ourselves, others and the world around us. The impact of these systems can be deep seated, like the roots of a tree. I am a warm, genuine, compassionate, curious and non-judgemental person. I love to laugh, I truly believe in the power of humour to connect us and lighten the shadows.

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.

Lea Hutcheon

As a registered clinical counsellor, my style has been described as warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I work with men and people of any gender who experience suicidality, addictions, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, and a range of traumas. I am energized to work alongside folks who seek to live in alignment with their values. I use multiple modalities (ACT, DBT, parts work / IFS, and more) which are empirically supported, trauma-informed and respect your autonomy and choice. Many of my clients navigate disability and chronic pain. In working together, we will support you in building skills and new patterns on your chosen path of growth and change. I currently offer sliding scale/reduced rates.

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.

Kaitlin Stephens

I hold the space and assist you with sorting things out that need to be explored. I tailor my approach to suit your needs and goals through collaboration and gentle guidance. I provide simple, step-by-step processes that can be applied and used.

David Chacon Valenzuela

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.

Daniel Bagnall

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from the life you want? Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, relationship challenges, or burnout, you don’t have to face it alone. At DB Counselling, I offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings.

I’m Daniel Bagnall, a Registered Clinical Counsellor (#21526) serving Vancouver and beyond. My approach is client-centred and collaborative — I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to help you navigate challenges, heal from past hurts, and build the resilience to face whatever comes next.

Outside of counselling, I’m an outdoor enthusiast, often hiking, biking, or exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest with my family.

David Holmes

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.

Freeman Woolnough

How do we know what works – and why? I believe that most people can ultimately provide the answers for themselves; however, it may take some exploration. I therefore use strategies that are evidence-based and research-driven, to help clients build resilience and develop effective coping strategies.
A counsellor is someone who is there to provide guidance and support in times of unmanageable stress. While our sessions may draw from various counselling approaches, including CBT, SFBT, and Narrative Therapy, the client ultimately provides the backdrop – and puts in the work – that leads to lasting change.

Dr. Mickey Stein

I am a registered clinical psychologist in Vancouver, B.C. My mission in private practice is to provide individual and family psychotherapy and psychological assessments to treat adolescents and adults. It is my sincere hope that whether you are seeking help for yourself or your teenager, you would reach out to me.

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.

Justin Bagan

Feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges? Whether it’s anxiety, difficult relationships, substance use, depression, or feeling lost and disconnected, you’re not alone. With a background in addiction and substance use counselling, I’ve supported clients in discovering practical insights, tools, and resources to help them move forward. Successes with clients in personal well-being, relationships, family dynamics, coping, and adapting to change inform our work together.

I value and support you as you are. Clients describe me as a counsellor who genuinely listens and understands them. Let’s discover what works best for you, so you can maintain lasting relief, hope, and peace. If this is something that might interest you, I look forward to connecting. Let’s see what’s going on for you and where we can go from here.

Megan Sutherland

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!
