Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Grief doesn't follow a schedule, and it doesn't always make sense to the people around you. Sometimes it shows up long after the loss, or for something others don't recognise as a loss at all. I work with people in that space without trying to move them through it faster than they're ready for, helping them find their footing again and figure out who they are on the other side.

Jasmine Gill Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC
Carrying grief is an unbearable burden, one that no one deserves to face alone. Seeking therapy for grief is an incredibly courageous act, that will be met with honouring your unique timeline on this journey of confronting one of the biggest wounds; how to continue living without a loved one.
In our work together, we gently turn toward the loss, making space to understand how to live alongside the pain while exploring the impact of what remains. Grief is not something to “get over,” but something to move with, at your own pace.
It is an honour to sit with you in your grief. Through a safe, attuned relationship, we move slowly toward a place of acceptance—one that allows space for both the pain of loss and the possibility of continued connection and meaning.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Grief and loss can feel overwhelming, unpredictable, and deeply personal. While it may come from the loss of a loved one, grief can also arise from the end of a relationship, changes in identity, unmet expectations, or other significant life transitions. You might notice waves of sadness, anger, numbness, or disconnection, and it can feel isolating when others don’t fully understand the depth of what you’re experiencing.
In our work together, we’ll create a space where your grief is allowed, without pressure to move on or feel differently than you do. We’ll gently explore your experience, making room for both the pain of the loss and the meaning it holds. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll also support your nervous system in processing grief, helping you feel more grounded and better able to carry your loss over time.
I draw from approaches such as IFS, ACT, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. Together, we’ll focus on building compassionate ways to navigate your grief, while supporting connection, self-understanding, and healing in your own time.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Loss or grief deeply affects us physically and emotionally. Through balancing the central nervous system and brain along with counselling the body and mind are brought through a gentle process of grief. We can grieve many things: expectations, identity, relationships, careers, health, and the past.

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, Telus, and other major technology companies — 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 Royal Columbian Hospital 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.
