Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
I deeply enjoy offering psychotherapy because it provides a powerful and accessible medium, where we can share and uncover, allowing me to assist people to live a meaningful and fulfilling life with with joy, resilience and growth. It’s an incredible privilege to create a safe and compassionate space where someone feels seen, heard and understood, often for the first time. Being part of a journey where individuals uncover their inner strengths, navigate challenges and gain a deeper understanding of themselves, reduce their symptoms and address problems is profoundly rewarding. I have 25 years of experience in psychotherapy (with PhD) and my approach is built on gentleness, openness, acceptance and curiosity, and together we find ways to disentangle, understand, manage, and change unhelpful patterns, overwhelming feelings, challenging conditions, or past experiences that can hold us entrapped. I recommend an initial consultation to get to know each other. I pursue a multimodal therapy approach and have extensive knowledge in dealing with psychological, social, relational, family and professional problems. My specialisations include, among others:
• Stress management, coping strategies and burnout prevention
• Reactions to any stress, including relational, social, familial, personal and professional
• Anxiety disorders and related symptoms
• Depressions and related challenges around mood
• Challenges in professional life, especially during career changes and in leadership positions
• Adjustment disorders, losses, separation, trauma and other life changes
• Problems in interpersonal relationships, partner and family challenges
I prefer to work in an active and collaborative way. Together we find ways to understand and change some aspects in your life, in sustainable ways. Please feel free to reach out and write to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you.

Mark Brower-Herbert
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC
Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but we’ll move at your pace and focus on what matters most to you. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your relationships, build more effective coping strategies, or have a space to sort through your thoughts, I offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can explore and grow. If you’re coming as a couple, you may be feeling stuck, disconnected, or caught in patterns of conflict that are hard to make sense of. Together, we’ll identify your strengths, explore where connection is already happening, and gently work through the patterns that may be getting in the way—without blame or shame—so you can rebuild understanding, communication, and intimacy.

Rebekkah Stainton
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC
You’re smart, driven, and holding it together on the outside… yet the moment things get quiet, your body keeps whispering that something isn’t right. Maybe it’s stress, maybe it’s “just how you are,” or maybe it’s old experiences you’ve spent years outrunning. Even with all your insight and grit, you still feel stuck in patterns you can’t outthink.
Online therapy with me is a calm, structured space where you don’t have to perform, overfunction, or pretend you’re fine. We slow down just enough for you to actually hear yourself without feeling overwhelmed by it. My work focuses on high-functioning women carrying the subtle impact of sexual trauma, especially the way it shows up in stress, overachievement, boundaries, and relationships. Through mind–body–emotion integration and direct, grounded conversations, I help you understand your nervous system, shift out of survival mode, and build a way of living that feels steady, sustainable, and genuinely yours.

Rebekah Hart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MSc(a), MFT
As a psychotherapist, couple and family therapist, ecotherapist and drama therapist, I work with couples adults and groups at diverse stages of life. My work is systemic in that I see individuals as impacted by, and interconnected within, larger networks of relationships and social systems. The values underlying my practice are rooted in a long-term dedication to social justice, my belief in creativity as a healing force, and my love and respect for the natural world. Seeking help takes courage, and no one approach works for everyone. I work collaboratively, and tailor my approach to each unique person.
My work as a therapist is informed by attachment theory, a respect for the natural intelligence of emotions and the body, and an understanding of trauma and human development. My background includes advanced training in Family Systems, EFT Couple Therapy, Ecotherapy, Hakomi, and Drama Therapy. I specialize in working with climate distress and eco-anxiety.
I believe that, given the right support, each individual has the wisdom and resources within them to move towards positive change and wholeness. I welcome clients of all genders, sexual orientations, ages and cultural backgrounds, as well as couples and families in traditional and non-traditional configurations.

Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Nutrition-informed hypnotherapy for emotional eating, food noise, stress-driven eating patterns, and lasting behaviour change. I support adults who feel stuck in cycles with food, eating, self-criticism, and overwhelm, especially those who are tired of relying on willpower alone. My work combines clinical hypnotherapy, nervous system regulation, behaviour change principles, and my background as a former Registered Dietitian to help clients create lasting, sustainable shifts. In addition to limited one-to-one sessions, I offer self-guided hypnosis kits designed to support common patterns such as: emotional eating, stress and trigger-based eating, constant mental chatter around food and difficulty slowing or changing automatic patterns. These tools allow many clients to begin building awareness, regulation, and new responses at their own pace before deciding whether deeper individualized support is needed. Sessions and resources are approached collaboratively, compassionately, and without shame, restriction, or rigid dieting approaches.

Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
I am happy to offer online therapy to folks all over British Columbia and applicable provinces.
10 Years Experience
Online in Richmond, BC
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.
