Find a Therapist

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.

Isabel Ruediger

I am a retired career firefighter that believes first responder occupational stress and repeated exposures to potentially traumatic events can sometimes lead to struggles in enjoying quality of life. Therapy can be an opportunity to to work collaboratively together in navigating the balance of work and personal life. In my practice I draw upon evidence based modalities such as CBT and ACT in working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma or OCD.

Laura Wray

I have significant experience working with men, and have developed a real sensitivity and empathy for the struggle many men face in opening up about, and making sense of their emotions. I believe we all have different ways of expressing ourselves and that using emotional language is not the only – or the correct – way to navigate our experience and relationships. If you are worried about being constantly asked how you feel, or about long awkward silences in the therapy room, that’s not what you will find here. I use humour, directness, prompts, helpful strategies, and most importantly, I work alongside you in a very human and engaged way. Our sessions will be collaborative and lead by what feels helpful to you.

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.

Keely Honeywill

I practice from an anti-oppressive, intersectional feminist, and trauma-informed lens. To be grounded in anti-oppressive practice from an intersection feminist lens means recognizing and examining the harmful systems that impact individual’s mental health. Pain and suffering are not created in a vacuum, but rather experienced as a result of the unjust systems that influence daily living. These influences can include patriarchy, capitalism, colonialism, heteronormativity, and prescribed gender norms.

Emad Seyed Sadr

I provide counselling services in French and English for individuals in matters related to anxiety, depression, life transition, gender, grief, loss and suicide. My practice is founded on the belief that you are not the “problems” present in your life, and that, above all, you are greater than the sum of the events in your life. As my counselling approach is strength-based, Solution-Focused and Narrative-rooted, our conversations will identify, explore and honour the big and small ways you defy and resist “problems”, while re-authoring a deeper and richer version of your life and journey.

Mark Smith

I’m a Family Systems Therapist who has been in practice since 1988. I work with men from a family of origin or a family systems approach. This means, in part, that I think of men and their emotional functioning within a systems framework. I think about how their sense of themselves, and their emotional function has been shaped by the relational dynamic of their friends and family, past and present. This then contributes to emotional health symptoms like depression.

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.

Andrew (Andy) Wilkins

Andrew (Andy) has extensive experience in coaching and counselling using CBT (cognitive-behavioural therapy) as well as EMDR. He supports his clients in getting the right tools to flourish in their daily lives and feel confident to overcome obstacles arising from stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, ADHD, grief, or relationship issues.

He has worked with a wide range of clients from post-secondary students to first responders and is familiar with helping people experiencing trauma injuries, including ICBC clients. He also often works with couples, having been trained in the Gottman Method.

Andrew Wallace

One of the most noble pursuits and individual can have is to strive to lead a meaningful and purposeful life.  This can be an extremely difficult task, both in terms of determining what this personally means and then figuring out how to get there.  When we feel stuck and overwhelmed, other negative and self-limiting states also take shape including anxiety and depression, leaving us full of bad habits and desperate for change.  In the therapeutic work with Andrew, the aim is to uncover the root causes that inhibit fulfillment and to further apply practical strategies that will permit change and foster personal growth.

Mei Wong

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.

Robbie Ruddell

You don’t have to carry this all on your own. I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor offering a space of refuge and belonging for men navigating shame, stress, disconnection, and self-doubt. If you feel stuck in emotional or relational patterns, overwhelmed or shut down inside, longing for connection but unsure how to feel safe in it – you’re not alone.

My practice is grounded in attachment theory, interpersonal neurobiology, and self-compassion. I work beyond traditional talk therapy by engaging the body and mind to support clients in moving beyond survival patterns into a more connected sense of self. While I support many queer and questioning clients, my practice is open to all men. A free consult is here for you when the time is right.

Cameron Gibson

I believe curiosity can replace judgment, and this natural curiosity toward people led me into a career in Mental Health, and the creation of my practice in 2019. I’m drawn to modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Solution-Focused Approaches.

In my work, I utilize a therapeutic approach that fosters practical and measurable progress for clients. To create that impact, I draw on over ten years of varied work experience, ranging from community-based treatments to private practice and corporate work. This contributes to a creative and open-minded way of counselling, allowing me to pull from this wide range of experience, as well as my coaching work, and deliver real change for people.

Bruce Avery

My name is Bruce Avery and I work as a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a Certified Sex Therapist (AASECT) and I’m the Founder of Avery Therapy Centre & Stellium Sex Therapy. I work with a wide range of people who may seek increased perspective, self-understanding, and clarity in their everyday lives. I also work with people who may feel that anxiety, depression, or past trauma is hindering them from achieving their goals.

When working with me, you can expect to be treated with respect, care, and compassion. It is my intention to develop a foundation of trust and security and an environment in which you can explore your inner world and feel more empowered. My practice is trauma and culture informed.
