Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Anxiety and fear is a common part of grief because death is random - it just don't make sense to the griever. Death of someone special can make the world feel unsafe, untrustworthy, unpredictable, and out of control. After someone dies, many grievers begin waiting for the next bad thing to happen. A child is five minutes late, a partner does not answer the phone, a friend didn't call when they said they would, or someone they love seems unwell, and their mind immediately goes to the worst possible outcome.
I support adults who are experiencing grief-related anxiety, racing thoughts, fear, panic, overwhelm, and the feeling that they cannot trust life anymore. I explain why these reactions make sense after loss, especially when a death felt sudden, unfair, traumatic, or impossible to accept. I also provide practical tools to help clients manage anxious thoughts, calm their nervous system, cope with triggers, and live with grief without feeling controlled by fear.

Heal(ing) Trauma Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), HBA, MPsy
From a trauma-informed approach, anxiety is simply a manifestation of unresolved trauma and a lack of feeling safe, secure, and stable. The work we can do will be to better help you understand your anxiety, to learn ways to better cope with it, and process the trauma that creates it so you can feel more, safe, secure, and stable.

Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
Retrain your unconscious mind. Overcome anxiety, defeat, and frustration. And feel like yourself again, for good.
If you’ve experienced anxiety, you know what it’s like to feel stuck in repeated patterns of thoughts and feelings. You know what it’s like to wish you could make a change, but feel completely powerless over your behaviours. You understand feeling stuck and feeling defeated. You wonder why you can’t simply move on. Why you can’t just let it go.
But although this feeling is incredibly frustrating, it’s also a completely human stress response. Your brain is under duress, so it reverts back to operating unconsciously. It relies on the default programming that’s been developing throughout your life. It’s the reason why, even when you want to change your behaviour, in your current state, you actually can’t. You naturally snap back into old routines and patterns. Because they are familiar, and they seem safe.
To get to the root of the problem and actually change your anxiety-inducing behaviours and thought patterns, you need to reprogram your unconscious mind. With a combination of hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and neurofeedback sessions, I can help you do just that.

Shaunna Grams, Grams Counselling Services Inc.
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Identifying your anxiety signals and their origins allows you to intervene in responsive ways. Anxiety is a powerful and useful emotion that we do not want to get rid of. However, we do need to learn how to interpret anxious signals, direct thoughts and regulate our experiences so that anxiety equips versus overwhelms us. Together, we can gently untangle the patterns that spiral us toward anxiety or fear-fullness.

Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
While Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT) is highly effective in the treatment of anxiety disorders (e.g., Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder), clinicians do see some “return of fear,” or partial relapse, in some patients due to a variety of factors. Over the past two decades, treatment researchers, with whom Dr. Jayson Mystkowski had the pleasure of working with at UCLA for over 10 years, have studied “return of fear” and discovered some key variables that may optimize the effects of learning during CBT for anxiety disorders (Craske et al., 2008).
First, evidence suggests that focusing on tolerating fear versus eliminating fear yields better clinical outcomes in the long term. Namely, teaching clients that fear and anxiety are normal feelings, rather than attempting to “down-regulate” such feelings all the time, is more realistic and seems to engender “hardier” clients. Second, helping clients to generate an expectancy that “scary things will not happen,” is very powerful. To do this, it is important for clinicians to create more complex exposure exercises (i.e., tasks in which a client confronts a stimulus of which they are afraid), using multiple feared stimuli instead of one at a time. Then, the lack of a feared outcome becomes particularly surprising and memorable for a client and fear reduction is more potent. Third, increasing the accessibility and retrievability of non-fear memories learned during treatment are powerful factors in mitigating against a return of fear. Craske and colleagues demonstrated that exposure to variations of a feared stimulus, using a random schedule across multiple contexts or situations, is more effective than exposure to the same stimulus, on a predictable schedule, in an unchanging environment. The former paradigm, it is argued, creates stronger non-fear memories that are easier for a client to access when subsequently confronting feared objects or situations outside of the therapy context, than the later scenario.
In sum, clinicians have long been aware that some fear or anxiety returns following very successful CBT treatment. As mentioned above, there are some clear, empirically supported ways to modify the therapy we provide to further help clients generalize the gains made in therapy sessions to the real world.

Richmond, British Columbia is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities outside of Asia — with Chinese Canadians comprising a significant majority of the population and Mandarin and Cantonese widely spoken — creating a therapy community where demand for Chinese-language and culturally competent therapists far exceeds available supply. The city's proximity to Vancouver International Airport and its role as a gateway community for recent immigrants from Hong Kong, mainland China, and Taiwan shapes a therapy landscape particularly attuned to immigration stress, cross-cultural family dynamics, and the identity challenges of first-generation residents. Richmond Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community that is increasingly building capacity in Chinese-language care. Help-seeking stigma in some East Asian communities remains a significant barrier, and many therapists in Richmond invest considerable clinical energy in normalizing therapy as part of their work.
