Online Brainspotting Therapists in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

I provide trauma-informed psychotherapy for adults experiencing anxiety, relational difficulties, attachment wounds, and/or the effects of complex or developmental trauma. I also work with couples and two-person family configurations. My work is depth-oriented and relational, with an emphasis on nervous-system responses and compassionately making sense of protective strategies that have developed over time. Therapy with me is largely focused on what is happening in the room in the here and now. It is paced to support safety and integration rather than pressure, performance or doing. I work with adults seeking deeper self-understanding, emotional regulation, and more sustainable ways of relating to themselves and others.

Accepting New Clients – Evening and Weekend Availability I understand what it’s like to spend much of your life showing up for others, staying strong, and pushing through—even when anxiety, self-doubt, or exhaustion start creeping in. You hold yourself to high standards, but the drive to please can leave you feeling stretched thin or questioning your own worth. Sound familiar? I support both men and women from all walks of life, including First Responders, business owners, therapists, caregivers, parents, and those living with ADHD. I also have a special focus on supporting women through pregnancy loss, infertility, burnout, and postpartum challenges. I believe in every individual’s capacity to heal. Drawing from my experience as a therapist and Certified Hypnotherapist, I offer a neuroscience and trauma-informed, compassionate approach that goes beyond traditional talk therapy. Using Brainspotting, Parts Work, and Hypnotherapy, I help you heal old patterns and create more ease, joy, and fulfilment in your life.

Vancouver's extreme housing affordability crisis has become a defining mental health issue, with therapists frequently addressing financial stress, housing precarity, and the grief of displacement from a city many can no longer afford to stay in. The city's large East Asian community — particularly its Chinese, Korean, Filipino, and South Asian populations — drives demand for culturally fluent therapists who can navigate family dynamics, immigration stress, and the intersection of cultural expectations with individual wellbeing. BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services provides institutional support, while Vancouver's large private therapy community is concentrated in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive, and the West End. BC's expanded telehealth access makes it easier to connect with therapists across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.
