Zakary Zarichney
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, BSW, SSC
Accepting NEW Clients (Individuals and Couples) - Are you feeling "stuck" in life and you're looking for a way to better understand the steps forward? Have you heard of EMDR and you want to learn more about working through trauma and it is has had on your life, and how you show up in the world and with others? Is anxiety, stress, or low mood something you want to explore and learn strategies to cope differently? Are you a couple looking to work through infidelity, sexuality, or just simply want the skills to better communicate and understand each other?
I'm looking forward to taking my experience and education and working with you to apply it to the outcomes you're looking for. I can help create a framework to process trauma, navigate anxiety, or feel more satisfied in your relationship, and hopefully take the guesswork out of what that looks like.

Samantha Diminutto
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS-AT
I'm passionate about working with fellow ADHDers, especially through expressive and creative means. It's not easy for everyone to verbalize big emotions, so I often use art therapy techniques to help people improve their mental health. Neurodivergent people can benefit hugely by getting professional support from someone who gets it. Together, we can help you to better understand your unique wiring, with improving your communication and relationship skills and with self actualizing.

Valerie Dessaulles
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC
I work in a collaborative way - we work together to find you meanings and help you understand what is going on for you. I specialize in trauma, helping you build self-esteem, grief, chronic pain, anxiety and depression. If you seek a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your past, present and future then I would love to help you start to feel better.

Erica Beauchamp
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed. R.C.C.
Counselling is akin to a mental gym, where we exercise and strengthen your mind. Often, people are unaware of the patterns and thought processes that perpetuate negative emotions and experiences. My mission is to collaborate with you, empowering you not only to conquer your challenges but also to liberate yourself from self-defeating beliefs. Together, we'll embark on a transformative journey, unlocking your full potential and creating a life of fulfillment and positivity.

Kristy Ricard
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MACP, HBSc
I'm Accepting NEW Clients! - Are you looking for support in navigating anxious thoughts or feelings, or what feels like a dark cloud following you around? Are you tired of feeling like you’re not enough, or like the standards expected are exhausting to meet? Is a new life change causing stress or needing exploring? Do you feel burdened by obsessive thinking, or difficulties with food and body image? Are there relationships in your life that you’d like to explore, or better understand how you feel when around others? Are you simply hoping to build self-awareness or coping strategies?
I'll help create the space for you to gain insight, learn new strategies and skills, and explore the thoughts and feelings that currently take over your before, now, and future. We'll aim to move you towards feeling more confident in your ability to handle things, and meet your therapy goals.
It's normal if reaching out feels scary. I've worked with individuals in public, athletics, and private health settings, and i'm looking forward to connecting with you. I offer text, phone, virtual, and Walk & Talk Sessions in Chilliwack (outdoor therapy).
