Manupriya Mehra
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC)(ACCT), B.A., M.A. Psychology ( India)
Experiencing suicidal thoughts can be frightening and isolating, and many individuals struggle silently without knowing where to turn. I provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where clients can speak openly about their thoughts and feelings without fear or shame.
My approach focuses on emotional stabilization, strengthening inner safety, and helping clients feel heard and supported. Therapy is paced carefully, with an emphasis on grounding, coping strategies, and restoring hope. When appropriate, I work collaboratively to support safety planning and encourage additional supports as needed.

Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCC
Therapy looks very different depending on whether someone is facing a personal crisis or grieving a loss. Suicide-focused counselling offers immediate, structured support to keep an individual safe during their darkest moments. Suicide loss counselling provides a gentle, trauma-informed space for survivors processing the devastating death of a loved one. I utilize both trauma-informed and compassionate-therapeutic approaches for this work.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
If part of you is thinking about giving up, there’s another part of you that still hopes for something more.
Suicidal thoughts can feel heavy, isolating, and overwhelming—but they are often protective parts trying to escape deep pain. You are not alone in this. In our work together, we create a safe space to gently explore these thoughts without judgment. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help you connect with the parts of you that feel hopeless, as well as the parts that are still holding on. When we approach these inner voices with compassion and curiosity, healing becomes possible. You are not broken. There is help, and there is a path forward—even if it feels far away right now.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
When you are carrying suicidal thoughts, it is often a sign that your system is in a state of profound pain and sees disappearing as the only available relief from a world that feels unyielding or hostile. I provide an unconditionally non-judgmental, deeply relational online presence for clients in British Columbia who are navigating these heavy, dark spaces. We will sit safely with your suffering together, exploring the underlying distress while gently seeking paths toward internal ease and reconnection.

Heartsong Counselling
Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
When you’re living with thoughts of not wanting to be here, the weight of everything can feel unbearable and isolating. In our work together, you remain at the center of your healing while I walk beside you, offering calm, steady support when life feels too heavy to hold alone. With a gentle, intuitive approach rooted in transpersonal counselling, relational, and Jungian influences, we explore the pain beneath these thoughts with compassion and care. You don’t have to face this darkness by yourself; I’m here to help you carry what feels overwhelming and to support you in finding moments of grounding, meaning, and hope again.

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.
