Anxiety
David McAlinden
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Candidate, Yorkville University
Anxiety can feel exhausting, especially when your mind never fully slows down. You may find yourself overthinking conversations, expecting the worst, struggling to relax, or feeling emotionally drained from constantly trying to hold everything together on your own. Anxiety can also affect relationships, sleep, confidence, decision-making, and your ability to feel fully present in everyday life.
I aim to create a calm and supportive space where you can speak openly about what you’re experiencing without feeling judged, rushed, or pressured to have everything figured out right away. Together, we can explore the stress, fears, and patterns that may be keeping you stuck while working toward healthier coping strategies, greater self-understanding, and a stronger sense of balance in your day-to-day life.

Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Anxiety is exhausting in a way that's hard to explain to people who haven't felt it. Your mind is working overtime, your body is braced for something, and no matter how much you try to think your way out of it, it keeps coming back. I work with people to understand what's driving the anxiety beneath the surface, so we can address the root rather than just turn the volume down temporarily.

Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
Anxiety and fear can derail us from the lives we want to have and keep us stuck in holding patterns. I help clients not only manage their anxiety better, but uncover the 'why' towards chronic conditions that may be signals from the unconscious towards unmet wants and needs. Incorporating a neuroscience-based perspective that includes experiential focus on the mind-body connection, we can charter a path to more freedom in your dialy life.

I understand anxiety from the inside out. I know how fear and worry can take over, leaving you caught in overthinking, self-doubt, or the need to constantly prepare for what might go wrong. Together, we can understand what your anxiety is trying to protect you from, build a connection with it, and let it know you are ready to take the lead.

Victoria Jade Karra
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, CTP, CSTS
Anxiety is often more than worry alone — it can reflect patterns of protection, overwhelm, hypervigilance, and disconnection that develop over time. Therapy can become a space to better understand your nervous system, explore the roots of anxiety and fear with compassion, and begin developing new ways of relating to yourself and your experiences. Together, we work toward increasing self-awareness, emotional safety, and the ability to move through life with greater steadiness and choice.

Carol D.B. Whaley Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Anxiety and Stress are a part of our human experience as we navigate so much that is out of our control and unpredictable in life.
Some anxiety and stress is helpful in navigating difficult moments in life.
We want to be able to move through life with an awareness of how the anxiety and stress is helping us and how it is also covering deeper emotions that need to be addressed.
Through body psychotherapy we can connect more deeply to ourselves and the emotions stored in our bodies and use tools and exercises to regulate the anxiety and stress while processing the deeper emotions. The anxiety and stress dissipates as we become more comfortable with our deeper emotions and we begin to thrive.

Hira Imam
Counsellor/Therapist, M.Ed, RP, RCC, CCC
I work with individuals who experience worrying thoughts related to themselves, their relationships or their health. These thoughts create a lot of stress and it feels like you're on edge all the time. It's hard to enjoy downtime and sometimes difficult to socialize with others. You constantly feel like you should be doing something and feel guilty or worried when you aren't. I support clients in reducing their experience of distress and support them in living their day-to-day in a way that works for them. *Free 15 min Consultation Phone Call*

Burnaby is one of Metro Vancouver's most populous municipalities — home to Simon Fraser University and BCIT, and housing the headquarters of Electronic Arts Canada alongside major Telus offices and other technology employers — creating a therapy demand shaped by tech-sector burnout, academic stress, and a highly multicultural population that includes large Chinese, South Korean, Iranian, and South Asian communities. SFU and BCIT generate significant student mental health demand and clinical training pipelines that feed into the local therapy community. Burnaby Hospital and nearby Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community that serves residents increasingly priced out of Vancouver proper. Many Burnaby residents access the broader Metro Vancouver therapy ecosystem, and the relative proximity to Vancouver means specialist care is generally accessible.
