Therapists in Vancouver, BC

I have been working in the mental health field for 12 years, and as an RCC for 6 years. I take a clinical approach to therapy and aim to provide measurable change to mental health symptoms and well being. We believe the quality of the connection between client and counsellor is the most crucial factor in therapy, so myself and my team offer free 15 minute video or phone consultation to all new clients. You can give us a call or book in online, look forward to meeting you!

Are you grappling with feelings of anxiety, self-doubt, or resentment? Do you long for more fulfilling relationships, and greater ease in interpersonal and social interactions? Do people think you’ve got it all together, but inside you feel like you're just hanging on? Whether you're facing a new issue or dealing with long-standing concerns, we’ll explore the factors that have led to your current state, using evidence-based therapeutic interventions to provide clarity and direction. I’ll support you in moving forward with increased confidence and capacity for connection, so that you can live with more ease and stability.

*Services by student counsellors and Associates available* People we work with describe feeling disconnected, invalidated, and powerless after experiencing trauma and injustice. Some have felt stuck and overwhelmed in the process of reconnecting with themselves, their communities, and in navigating the dominant culture. We support clients in processing their experiences and deepening their understanding of themselves and their relationships. We affirm clients' needs and desires and value reciprocity and collaboration. Honoring clients' knowledge, we invite clients to co-create safety and exercise their self-determination.

It is human to struggle, we all have our ups and downs and being isolated in our emotional experience can just make it worse. Most emotions and behaviour makes sense in context. However, when left on our own to try to piece together our challenges, we can find ourselves plagued with self doubt and often feel lost. Therapy can help you see your situation objectively, accept even the imperfect parts of yourself, and work to use these parts as a roadmap into better health and well-being. We are not always able to control what life throws our way, but with help, we can transform these experiences into personal growth and wisdom.

There comes a time when we realise our past patterns and tools aren't helping us move forward in life. My goal is to provide you with the space and guidance to explore how your patterns of behaviour, past trauma, and experiences formed the person you are today. We will work together to explore past patterns, build healthy coping strategies, and strengthen resilience. Whether you’re looking to explore past experiences, build concrete tools to cope, or build healthy relationships with your loved ones, I provide an individualised, trauma-informed approach to therapy to adapt to your unique needs.

Navigating life's many challenges can leave us feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and disconnected from ourselves and others. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, or addiction - you deserve to feel empowered to live life on your own terms. Having a safe, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship where you feel both challenged and accepted to show up as your authentic self is where your healing journey begins. Together, we can co-create sustainable changes that enhance your resilience to handle future stressors, leading to a more fulfilled life.

I often hear from my clients that I help them to understand themselves better, and that they leave our sessions finally ‘getting’ their struggles in a different way. Most of my clients comment on how natural it feels to talk to me, and feel safe opening up in the non-judgmental and accepting space I create. Together, we will identify what has held you back from experiencing life and relationships the way you wish you could. We’ll set realistic and meaningful goals for our treatment, and look to remove the internal barriers that keep you stuck.

I support professionals and students with cross-cultural background to enter into an evidence-based healing process related to attachment wounds and/or trauma. I support those who struggle in building healthy identity and self beliefs and healthy relationships. Using approaches designed for trauma recovery and attachment wound mending, I support clients to process safely their traumatic past experiences, workplace breakdowns, systemic prejudice, and shift out of self-harming, maladaptive behaviours. We explore your story, naming cultural /environmental factors, societal barriers that hold you back from mental/emotional health.

Using a cutting edge combination of psychotherapy, neurofeedback, and biofeedback, I take a holistic approach to wellness which addresses the mind, brain, body, and spirit.

My name is Lauren Legere and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor in Downtown Vancouver. I work with individuals who are looking for support with anxiety/panic attacks, relationships and professional burnout among others. I empower you to create healthy relationships with yourself and others while helping to give you the tools to help thrive in your fast-paced environments.

Being a human is hard. Sometimes, the waves of the human experience feel like they’re engulfing us, and we feel swallowed up by sorrow, terror, shame, stress, or confusion. Other times, we may feel so disconnected from ourselves and the world around us that we wonder if a meaningful life is possible. Perhaps there are parts of your mind and heart that are fighting with each other, and you’re wrestling with constant inner turmoil. Or maybe you are tired of repeating the same old patterns and finding yourself in the same place you once were: frustrated and perplexed as to how you can break out of a cycle that is no longer serving you.

I want to understand who you are and unpack the contents of your mind with you. When traumatic events or negative experiences aren’t processed, they can take shape in behaviour, habits, feelings, thoughts and relationship dynamics. I offer a therapeutic journey to disarm the loops in your mind and work towards loosening their grip in your life. Whether you're feeling anxious, jaded, overwhelmed, empty, frozen, or feel your experiences are embarrassing or shameful, I believe you are worthy and deserving of being met with acceptance, care and connection.

I believe therapy is a journey towards meaningful change. My approach involves collaborative work within a safe, empathetic space to encourage self-exploration and personal growth. Utilizing a range of techniques, I aim to alleviate stress, guide through life transitions and challenges, and cultivate healthier, more fulfilling relationships. My ultimate objective is to cultivate a deeper understanding of life, nurture emotional resilience, and foster genuine connections with others

- Currently accepting clients - At The Modern Therapy Clinic, we are registered with the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association and hold a Master’s Degree in Counselling Psychology; we provide quality mental health care. We want to warmly welcome you and we appreciate how much courage it must have taken to take this step. With every session, we endeavour to bring kindness, warmth, and unique insight towards your concerns. With an emphasis on compassion, we sincerely want you to feel heard and cared for. We want you to feel well again.

You may be in pain and seeking healing, or simply have a sense that life could be better. You probably look to the world as though you are successful and coping well, but you don't feel like that inside. In holding space for you, whatever your needs, I can help you find freedom, creativity, and resilience. I mostly work with professionals, creatives, and students, especially graduate students. Together, we will explore the underlying causes of your challenges, so that you can make choices that are right for you, have healthier relationships, and feel as though you are in the driver's seat of your own life.

Are you overwhelmed by your emotions? Finding it tricky to manage your stress? is it time to build your self-esteem? Interested in exploring your identity? Are you adjusting to a life transition? Experiencing grief and loss? Are you feeling unheard in your relationship? Unseen by your partner? Perhaps you are seeking to increase your emotional connection with a partner?

For anyone looking for support with navigating a challenge or who feels a longing to realize more of life's potential, I believe that counselling can be tremendously helpful. I also believe this is true for a variety of challenges and goals, whether it’s navigating a mental health challenge like anxiety, depression or ADHD, or just wanting to live at your highest level. Through counselling I believe we enter a space where we can honestly explore our various thoughts and feelings, generate insights and evolve our wisdom and perspective.

A large part of the change that takes place due to therapeutic work is the relationship between client and counsellor. I strive to make that relationship a meaningful one based on respect and compassion. I bring with me a wide range of knowledge, skills and education and am happy to continue learning both from and for my clients.

Hi there! I’m Conlan. I’m a clinical counsellor, a researcher, a martial arts teacher, and an entrepreneur. I’m privileged to support my clients in improving their communication, strengthening their relationships, overcoming pain, and navigating life’s challenges.

I support folks to reclaim, explore, and practice coming back to our bodies, feeling feelings, expanding relational possibilities, and embodying permission and more choices toward dignity, aliveness, connection, tenderness, ease, and pleasure. I approach therapeutic work from healing-centred, intersectional feminist, harm reduction, and decolonial frameworks and practices, and draw from interpersonal neurobiology, parts work, politicized somatics, and lineages of energetic medicine.
