Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
The reason clients return time after time, and year after year, is due to the fact that I've made it a priority to build a strong connection with them. I listen, I guide them when they ask, and I'm honest with my feedback. Simply, they trust me. and nothing could be more important to me or to them. And because my work has always felt like both an honour and a gift, I value the opportunity of being brought into the emotional lives of my clients where I can offer them the kind of safe space they may not have ever experienced previously.

Pamela Mekuz
Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Q)
Sometimes we know something isn't quite right, but struggle to put into words what we're feeling or what needs to change. You might feel overwhelmed, stuck in familiar patterns, or exhausted from trying to manage everything on your own. I bring warmth, curiosity, and compassion to my work, along with a genuine interest in understanding what makes your experience unique. Together, we can explore what's keeping you stuck, gain new perspectives, and develop practical strategies to help you create meaningful change. I work with a nonprofit organization that provides free virtual counselling. If you've been considering therapy, I'd love the opportunity to connect and explore how I might support you.

Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
What if the way you see yourself isn’t the truth—but a story shaped by past wounds?
Our sense of self is shaped by early experiences, especially in relationships. If you grew up feeling unseen, unsafe, or unworthy, those feelings don’t just fade—they shape your choices, beliefs, and relationships. Maybe you struggle with anxiety, depression, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or self-doubt. These patterns didn’t come from nowhere—they were ways your mind and body learned to cope. But they don’t have to define you.
Healing is possible. Using a relational, trauma-informed approach rooted in attachment theory, complex PTSD recovery, and memory reconsolidation, I help people rewrite the beliefs that keep them stuck. Therapy isn’t about fixing what’s "wrong"—it’s about understanding and transforming the impact of what’s happened to you.
Together, we’ll explore the deeper patterns shaping your life, so you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and self-compassion—not just managing symptoms, but truly healing at the core.
You deserve to feel safe, connected, and whole. If this resonates with you, let’s talk. Book a free consultation today.

Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. I know how difficult it can be to navigate the complexities of life, especially when trauma, relationships, or identity issues weigh heavy on your heart. I’m here to offer you a safe, affirming space where you can begin the process of healing, at your own pace, and on your own terms.
Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of sexual trauma, exploring your LGBTQ+ identity, or simply seeking to understand the patterns in your life that no longer serve you, I am committed to walking beside you through every step of the journey. You don’t have to do this alone. In therapy with me, you’ll experience a unique blend of evidence-based therapies, creative techniques, and a deeply empathetic, collaborative approach. I’ll work with you to find what resonates, whether it’s EMDR, psychodynamic exploration, somatic therapy, meditation, or a combination of tools that evolve as your needs shift. My work is rooted in trauma-informed care, meaning I always respect your pace, your boundaries, and your journey. We’ll create a space where your healing is not just possible, but empowered.
I offer flexible evening and late-night sessions, making it easier for you to prioritize your well-being—even with a busy schedule. My online practice allows me to meet you where you are, whether that’s through Zoom or telephone, and I’m fully committed to being present with you during our sessions—so you get the support you deserve when you need it most.
With over a decade in mental health, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of individuals. From my early days supporting Haitian refugees abroad, to my experience working with neurodiverse young adults and seniors, I have helped people from many walks of life navigate complex emotions, trauma, and identity. While I specialize in sexual trauma and LGBTQ+ care, I believe healing is unique to each person—and I’m here to support you, no matter your background, experience, or life stage. Whether you’re exploring deep emotional patterns, working through trauma, or seeking more connection in your relationships, I’m committed to adapting my approach to meet your needs and helping you move forward at your own pace.
If you’re ready to begin this journey, take the first step today—together, we’ll find the path that works best for you. I’m here to help you heal, grow, and thrive.

Christina Harrison | Vicara Wellness |
Counsellor/Therapist, Integrative Holistic Coach and Practitioner | Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner |
You may/or may not understand what happened to you, and may still feel that in your body or show up in your experiences. Anxiety, overwhelm, relational issues, shutdown, tension, pain, or reactions that seem bigger that the moment can all leave you to wondering why you can't simply "move on." I work with the nervous system, body, mind and emotions to help you understand what your system has been carrying and support meaningful, sustainable change.
My work is especially suited to adults navigating trauma, anxiety, chronic stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, relational issues, highly sensitive people, and nervous system dysregulation. As a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner, I take a holistic, integrative approach tailored to the person in front of me-not a one-size-fits-all formula.
Healing starts with the relationship we have with ourselves, and I am here to guide your on your journey of self-exploration. I look forward to working with you.

Dena Marie Counselling & EMDR Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MEd, RCC
Feeling stuck in the same patterns, worries, or painful memories? You don't have to stay there, and you don't have to go through it alone. My practice is grounded in compassion, genuine care, and a real commitment to your healing. Using EMDR and other evidence-based approaches, I'll walk alongside you as you process what's weighing on you, ease stress, and create lasting balance and resilience, all at a pace that feels right for you. In a nonjudgmental space where you're welcomed and accepted exactly as you are, you can begin to loosen what's been holding you in place.

Charlie Young
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC #22791
I am a queer and trans RCC providing virtual therapy across BC.
I specialize in gender-affirming care, hormone readiness assessments in BC, and identity exploration. Whatever brings you to counselling, I am here to support you. Many come for gender-affirming counselling, transition support, and hormone readiness assessments. Others for trauma, depression, anxiety, BPD, anger, bipolar, or other difficulties that they need support around. ANY topic is welcome. During the free 15 minute consult, we will talk about what brings you to counselling and how I can help.
You can bring something specific, or you can start with the sense that something is off and we will work it out from there. Many times, our environments don’t support us in the way we need them to. I help to name the context rather than treating it as a problem arising within you. I always aim to offer you the support and respect you need.
Sometimes meeting a new counsellor can be nerve-wracking. I’m here to offer nonjudgemental compassion and care for whatever is going on for you. No matter your identity or your beliefs, you are welcome here!
