Chronic Pain
Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
At Nightingale Counselling, we understand that chronic pain is not simply a physical experience but one that ripples through every area of life, affecting identity, relationships, work, and emotional wellbeing in ways that are often underestimated and misunderstood. Grounded in modern pain science, our therapists work with clients to understand the profound connection between mind and body, helping to influence the way the brain modulates pain signals while also addressing the grief, fear, shame, and despair that so frequently accompany persistent pain. As one of the only counselling practices in Vancouver embedded within a multidisciplinary clinic, we offer direct access to physiotherapists, kinesiologists, and other allied health professionals, ensuring that clients receive the integrated, whole-person care that chronic pain truly requires.

Chronic Pain
Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC)(ACCT), B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Living with chronic pain or long-term illness can affect emotional wellbeing, identity, relationships, and daily functioning. I support individuals in coping with the emotional impact of ongoing pain, stress, and uncertainty. Through a trauma-informed and mind–body approach, we focus on emotional regulation, stress reduction, pacing, and restoring a sense of control and resilience while living with physical limitations.

Chronic Pain
Yanna Martinek
Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
I bring both lived and professional experience working with chronic illness and pain, and predominantly use Pain Reprocessing Therapy to support meaningful change. This approach focuses on retraining the brain’s response to symptoms, reducing fear, and restoring a sense of safety in the body. The aim is not to invalidate your experience, but to open new pathways for relief. Chronic illness can be deeply isolating and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Chronic Pain
Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
Coming from a biopsychosocial perspective to symptoms, we can explore the possible roots to these chronic pain conditions by attending to the mind-body connection via somatic psychotherapy interventions.

Chronic Pain
Alex Henderson
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, B.A
I bring lived experience and both with chronic illness and pain as well as an intimate knowledge of how therapy can interface with these experiences. I recognise the grief and rage that can become key markers of our lives when we experience these conditions and I understand how anger and sadness can become braided and fused when we think about our bodies and our health. Nothing is too much for me to hear and everything is welcome when we discuss health.

Chronic Pain
Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Chronic pain and illness often have layers that go beyond the physical body. I work somatically, in a trauma informed and nervous system aware way, to gently explore the root patterns that may be contributing to ongoing symptoms. Our work may include inner child healing, IFS & parts work, hypnotherapy, or energy-healing based practices, always guided by your system and paced with care. I offer a specialized body-based healing program for women who are ready to receive in-depth, holistic, support for their physical and health concerns. I would love to support you.

Chronic Pain
Jacqueline Limoges
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT, RCC
I support people living with chronic pain and illness to reclaim control through practical, sustainable lifestyle choices that reduce flare-ups and boost well‑being. By blending compassionate coaching with evidence‑informed strategies—mindful movement, sleep and energy pacing, nutrition that nourishes without overwhelm, stress‑resilience tools, and realistic goal‑setting—I help clients build individualized routines that honour limits while expanding capacity. Together we create clear, doable plans that foster confidence, improve daily functioning, and cultivate a steadier sense of hope and empowerment on the path toward better health.

Chronic Pain
Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
Living with chronic pain or illness changes not just your body, but your sense of who you are and what you can count on. I work with clients navigating grief, identity shifts, medical trauma, and the relational weight of being ill in a world that prefers you to get better quickly. Therapy here isn't about acceptance as a destination. It's about having somewhere honest to put all of it.

Richmond, British Columbia is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities outside of Asia — with Chinese Canadians comprising a significant majority of the population and Mandarin and Cantonese widely spoken — creating a therapy community where demand for Chinese-language and culturally competent therapists far exceeds available supply. The city's proximity to Vancouver International Airport and its role as a gateway community for recent immigrants from Hong Kong, mainland China, and Taiwan shapes a therapy landscape particularly attuned to immigration stress, cross-cultural family dynamics, and the identity challenges of first-generation residents. Richmond Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community that is increasingly building capacity in Chinese-language care. Help-seeking stigma in some East Asian communities remains a significant barrier, and many therapists in Richmond invest considerable clinical energy in normalizing therapy as part of their work.
