Tiffany Brown
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CCC
Gender-based violence and intersections of sexism, racism, and other oppression creates pain that we are forced to carry in our minds, our hearts, and our bodies. Being able to share our stories in safe, compassionate, supportive spaces can help us to gain clarity, dissolve shame, transform our stories, and support our empowerment. I am honoured to provide a safe, compassionate space. Together, in ways that centre your choice and at a pace that works for you, we will help you lay your story down and foster more clarity, honour your voice, restore self-connection and trust, and empowerment in your relationship with yourself, with others, and in your path forward.

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.

Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
I am a cis gender woman myself and have worked mostly with women in my private practice. There are certain issues that do affect us personally- societal pressures and oppression history, hormones, expectations from ourselves and others that keep us stuck.

Women's Issues
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Women’s issues can encompass a wide range of experiences, including challenges related to identity, relationships, self-worth, boundaries, life transitions, motherhood, fertility, sexuality, and the pressures placed on women in today’s world. You might find yourself navigating conflicting expectations, carrying emotional or mental load in relationships, struggling with people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from your own needs and voice.
In our work together, I will create a space to explore your experiences as a woman in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll look at how personal history, relationships, and broader social and cultural influences may be shaping how you see yourself and move through the world. The focus is on helping you reconnect with your own needs, values, and sense of agency.
I draw from approaches such as ACT, IFS, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique experiences and goals. Together, we’ll work on strengthening self-trust, boundaries, emotional regulation, and self-compassion, while also supporting deeper healing and empowerment.
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.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
As you know firsthand, moving through the world as a female can come with unique challenges. I offer a safe space to process your experiences, explore your emotions, and connect with your most authentic, embodied self. My mission is to empower sensitive and soulful women to step into the truth of who they are unapologetically. Together, we will work collaboratively to identify all the ways you've been programmed to go outside of yourself for validation and security and help you find the inner peace and freedom you long for. I have experience supporting women with a range of struggles including: fertility and reproductive health, PMDD, gender based violence (sexual assault or harassment), self esteem, body image/disordered eating, work life balance, societal expectations about women’s roles as mothers or caregivers, and assertive communication/boundary setting. I offer in-person, virtual or walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you—head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation.

Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCC
Traditionally research, healthcare and mental health care lacked focus on women's issues, but thankfully the times have changed on this! I support women or anyone identifying as a woman, providing the gender-affirming space and compassionate-care to explore the unique psychological, biological, and societal challenges that we face. My approaches in this work are deeply rooted in compassion, mindfulness, self-care and through a feminist-lens, recognizing that a woman's mental health is shaped by cultural expectations, systemic pressures, and hormonal transitions such as PMDD, perimenopause and menopause.

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Women’s emotional and mental health concerns can show up in many ways, including pressure to meet expectations, difficulty setting boundaries, burnout from carrying too much for others, self-worth and self-confidence struggles, marriage and relationship struggles, or navigating life transitions and identity shifts. You may feel disconnected from your body, intuition, or sense of inner strength while trying to balance roles, responsibilities, and personal needs. I work somatically, trauma-informed, and with the nervous system, inner child, and energy field in mind to support deeper healing from patterns that have been carried in the nervous system and body. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that helps you reconnect with your authentic self, your voice, truth, inner wisdom, and intuition.

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.
