Laura Chartrand
Counsellor/Therapist, BA, RTC
I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship issues, and life transitions. My approach is gentle and non-judgmental — this is a space to actually explore what you're feeling, not just manage it.
I've had my own experience with anxiety and self-doubt, and it shapes how I show up with clients. I don't believe healing means fixing something broken in you. It means reconnecting with who you already are underneath the noise.
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, you don't have to sort through it alone.

Carol D.B. Whaley Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Choosing a Counsellor or Psychotherapist is a very personal process. It can be difficult to take that first step, even if it is not your first time in therapy. I am a Vancouver based Counsellor and Psychotherapist in Private Practice. I offer both in person and online sessions. I also offer 15 minute free telephone consults to help you decide if you feel the connection you need to enter into this very vulnerable and personal relationship.
I am a Registered Social Worker (RSW) with the BC College of Social Workers, and have my Master of Social Work (MSW) from UBC; a Bachelor of Arts (BA), in Psychology; and a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW), both from McMaster University.
I have over 22 years of extensive clinical experience as a counsellor and psychotherapist working with individuals, couples, families and groups. I work with all ages on any issues that are getting in the way of the client experiencing life to its fullest in the very personal way they want to live.

Francisca Carrasco - Compassionate Healing
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC. M.Psych
You may look capable on the outside, yet feel constantly tense, self-critical, or emotionally exhausted on the inside. I work with adults who are tired of pushing themselves and want a calmer, more grounded relationship with their thoughts and emotions. My therapy style is warm, structured, and collaborative, combining compassion-focused therapy and mindfulness to help you build inner safety, clarity, and resilience. I offer a supportive space where change happens gently, without judgment or pressure.
