Elysia Bronson (The Woods Counselling)
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, Online Therapy, Chronic Pain, & Traumatologist
Chronic pain and trauma can leave you feeling isolated and like your life is shrinking around you. I understand. As a therapist who has also navigated chronic illness, I've walked a similar path.
I specialize in online therapy for chronic pain and trauma because I believe everyone deserves access to support, no matter their location or limitations.
Through online therapy, I offer a safe space to explore your experiences, develop coping skills, and build resilience. I work collaboratively with you to manage pain, increase energy levels, and reduce stress. My goal is to empower you to reclaim control and find joy, even amidst chronic pain and trauma.
It's normal to feel hesitant about opening up to a stranger. My website offers a glimpse into my story and my therapeutic approach.

Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
My goal in counselling is to help you to find what's missing in your life. Perhaps it is issues with identity, or ongoing conflicts in relationships, or a feeling of "stuckness." Mutual respect and trust are vital components to our work together. I offer a unique setting where we can work through the topics you bring in a non-judgmental way.

Simone Merkl Marriage Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
My mission is to inspire deeper appreciation, emotional connection, intimacy, and attraction in your relationship.
As a Relationship Attraction Specialist and couples counsellor, I help couples understand the deeper patterns that influence love, connection, and desire. Many couples still care deeply for each other but find themselves stuck in cycles of conflict, distance, misunderstanding, or emotional disconnection.
It is incredibly rewarding to witness couples heal old wounds, strengthen their attachment, and rediscover the partnership they once shared. I love seeing couples move from treating each other as adversaries to becoming collaborators who support, understand, and choose each other.
I believe meaningful change happens in a safe, empathetic, and authentic counselling environment. My approach combines evidence-based couples therapy with warmth, compassion, and even humour when appropriate, creating a space where couples can feel comfortable being honest, vulnerable, and real.
I help couples navigate challenges involving communication, emotional safety, trust, intimacy, attraction, and relationship patterns that may have developed over time. Together, we can create a pathway toward greater understanding, connection, and a relationship that feels alive again.
Is Fear Stealing Your Happily Ever After?
Over time, every couple faces a choice:
Fear or Faith.
Fear can create:
• Distance
• Protection
• Blame
• Control
• Resentment
Faith can create:
• Courage
• Vulnerability
• Responsibility
• Compassion
• Connection
Fear + Distance = Loss of Attraction
Faith + Connection = Restored Attraction
Discover where fear, ego, and old patterns may be blocking connection — and how emotional safety, surrender, and faith can help restore balance, intimacy, and desire.

Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
I believe that meaningful change doesn’t come from forcing or fixing yourself, it comes from understanding yourself more deeply, and learning how to work with your mind and body, rather than against them. In my work as a clinical hypnotherapist, I often meet people who are capable, thoughtful, and self-aware, yet feel stuck in patterns of anxiety, overthinking, emotional eating, or self-doubt. These patterns can feel frustrating, especially when you’ve “tried everything” to change them. What I’ve seen, time and time again, is that real, lasting change happens when we gently access the deeper parts of the mind where these patterns are held. This is where hypnotherapy can be incredibly effective; supporting you to shift not just how you think, but how you feel, respond, and experience yourself day to day.

Coquitlam is one of Metro Vancouver's Tri-Cities communities, a rapidly growing suburb that has attracted a large and diverse immigrant population—particularly from China, South Korea, and Iran—making it one of the most multicultural communities in the greater Vancouver area and creating significant demand for culturally competent and multilingual therapy. Fraser Health provides public mental health services, and access to Vancouver's much broader private therapy market—either in person or via telehealth—gives Coquitlam residents a wide range of options for culturally matched practitioners. The city's rapid growth and its character as a first landing point for many new Canadians means that acculturation stress, immigration transition, and intergenerational family dynamics are among the most common presenting concerns in local therapy practices. Common therapy concerns also include anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and the challenges of navigating Canadian institutions and community life in a new country.
