Christina Harrison | Vicara Wellness |
Counsellor/Therapist, Integrative Holistic Coach and Practitioner | Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner |
Women often carry many roles at once—partner, parent, caregiver, professional, daughter, friend—while quietly losing connection with their own needs, identity, body, or inner voice. I support women navigating change, overwhelm, relationships, self-worth, stress, and the desire to reconnect
more deeply with themselves. Our work can include the mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and energetic dimensions of your experience, creating space not simply to cope with what life asks of you, but to rediscover what feels authentic, nourishing, and meaningful to you. Reconnect with yourself.

Simone Merkl Marriage Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
It is no wonder many women are struggling today with the weight society places on us to be superheroes. The expectations placed on women can be disheartening, not to mention the expectations we place on ourselves. Masculine power is still very much rewarded in our world, but we have lost sight of tapping into our Feminine Power. It is time to empower ourselves to be in our natural polarity. Women face many issues specific to us. I can guide you through relationship challenges, self-esteem, domestic violence, abuse, depression, anxiety, separation, divorce, patriarchy, fears, hormone changes, infertility, and eating disorders. Please feel free to contact me for a free 20-minute consultation today. I offer online sessions in Canada, BC. or in-person sessions in Langley or White Rock, BC.

Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Therapy focuses on addressing topics related to women's health in the domains of physical, emotional, mental, professional and spiritual well-being. Therapy addresses reproductive health, pregnancy and post-partum mental health, relational distress, trauma, and body image issues. Healing can also focus on exploring traumatic experiences related to gender inequality, gender-based violence, adverse childhood experiences, peer rejection, and recovery from abuse and relational conflict. Counselling may address women's issues and be tailored to provide exploration of negative thoughts and beliefs that may fuel low self-esteem, empowering the client to challenge themselves on a journey to self-discovery and navigate through life transitions. A culturally responsive and socially just lens is used to help women navigate through unique life experiences and cultural expectations.

Rawda Tomoum
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC, CGT
Being a woman often means carrying more than anyone realizes—the emotional load, family responsibilities, caregiving, cultural expectations, and the pressure to keep everything together while appearing capable. It can also mean dealing with harsh self-talk, imposter syndrome, being treated differently in ways that are difficult to name, and feeling pulled between what society expects of you and what you actually want for yourself. You probably do not even need to hear America Ferrera’s monologue in Barbie to know exactly what I am talking about. I can help you find "you" within all these roles and expectations so that you define for yourself your own sets of expectations you want to live by, the values you want to uphold, and the goals or achievements you decide to pursue. You get to figure out and choose the weights that are worth lifting - and the weights that were never yours to carry.

Abbotsford is a Fraser Valley city bordering Washington state with a character shaped by its strong Mennonite and evangelical Christian heritage, a large Punjabi Sikh community that has made it home to one of Canada's most prominent South Asian populations outside the Vancouver core, and a rapidly growing suburban economy that has attracted families priced out of Metro Vancouver. University of the Fraser Valley offers psychology and counselling programs that contribute to the local mental health workforce, and Fraser Health provides public mental health services to the region. Mental health stigma has historically been significant in some of Abbotsford's religious and cultural communities, and faith-integrated therapy and culturally competent care—particularly for South Asian clients—are important considerations in the local landscape. Common therapy concerns include intergenerational family conflict, cultural identity, anxiety, economic stress, and the adjustment challenges of a community navigating the tension between traditional roots and rapid modern growth.
