Vancouver, British Columbia therapist: Melanie Brooks, pre-licensed professional
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Melanie Brooks

Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Student - Associate Therapist
I believe people are often more resilient than they realize, especially during the difficult times in life. My goal is to create a collaborative, non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are. We can move at a pace that feels comfortable for you and allow you to determine what approach may work best, and explore how you want to move forward together. My counselling experience is shaped by years of supporting people through high-pressure situations, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, and personal setbacks. I have also worked closely with neurodivergent individuals who often feel misunderstood or unsupported by the world around them. Even people who are finding that life is just hard also need someone to hear them out. Through these experiences, I saw how powerful it can be to have space to feel heard, understood, and supported, and this is my goal when working with individuals and couples.

The city has a young, ambitious professional demographic with growing mental health awareness, and therapists here frequently address anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, and career-related identity challenges. Calgary also has a growing and diverse immigrant population, with many therapists offering culturally informed care for newcomers navigating settlement stress and identity transitions.
