-
Psychotherapy and Counselling
You might have no prior experience with therapy or may have tried other therapists over the years and are hoping for a change. Either way, our clinic strives to work with you to provide a personalized therapy experience.
In psychotherapy, you discuss issues that are important to you and the ways in which you feel “stuck.” This experience takes place in a private, safe, and validating environment.
Through evidence-based intervention and a supportive therapeutic relationship, you will be on the right track to make meaningful changes in your life.

Psychological Assessment
If you are interested in better understand you or your loved one’s experiences, including thinking patterns, emotional reactions, or behaviours, this may be what you are looking for.
Our clinic provides expert opinions with regards to mental health conditions and personality patterns. A psychological assessment** helps to clarify on the nature of mental health challenges, inform treatment options, and is often an important first step of getting help.
**Please note that our clinic does not conduct assessments for medical-legal purposes.
When and why should I consider therapy or counseling?
“My mind is too busy for me to fall asleep.”
“I don’t see a future for myself. Life is hopeless.”
“I am constantly restless and on edge. It’s impossible to get any work done.”
“I lose control and my emotions are all over the place.”
These are just a few of the many reasons why you might want to see a therapist at our clinic. Psychologists and counsellors are trained experts in piecing together information about your life to provide you with a good understanding of yourself and the struggles that you have, such as your “stuck points,” and what cause and maintain your current distress.
We specialize in the practice of psychotherapy, through which they help you to understand patterns in your life and make meaningful changes. All of this take place in a non-judgemental, empathic, and validating environment, where you feel accepted and understood, and feel more hopes about building a life worth living.
Accessible, inclusive and culturally sensitive care
Our clinic specializes in working with clients coming from diverse backgrounds, include different ethnicity, age, gender & sexual identity, and religion.
We understand that the definition of wellness can be very different depending on where you came from and the context in which you were raised and acculturated. We may not be familiar with all the facets of your background and experiences, but we strive to understand with humility, attend and tailor to your unique needs using culturally-sensitive care and interventions.
Services are provided through the use of a secure telehealth platform to individuals currently residing in BC, Canada. This allows you to access support in the comfort of your home or any safe space of your choice.
