Loralee Schultz
Registered Psychotherapist, BSc Psyc, MACP, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) CRPO & CCPA & BCACC Member
Standard therapeutic advice often fails ADHD minds by focusing heavily on behavioural compliance, strict routines, or simply 'trying harder.' In our sessions, we completely throw out that neurotypical playbook. Having navigated life with ADHD myself, I work with you to understand the brilliant, complex, and sometimes chaotic way your unique brain actually processes the world. We look closely at executive dysfunction, rejection sensitive dysphoria, and the intense exhaustion of masking. Together, we will focus on building self-compassion and designing customized life strategies that actively support and honour your natural cognitive operating system.

Alex Henderson
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, B.A
I have training and experience working with numerous aspects of ADHD including help with medication management, emotional fatigue and strategies for overcoming issues of focus and attention. My contention is that ADHD is not a disorder but rather a collection of experiences that cluster around the differential in the way our brains and our environments organise information. Working from this perspective I aim to draw together a comprehensive attitude shift towards the self and one’s habits as well as a compendium of tools that can be used to compensate for the differences in between these systems. With counselling we can not only gain insight into the ways ADHD is effecting our lives, but we can also process and work through the impacts.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
I work with clients who have ADHD to navigate challenges that may arise in relationships, work, school, and daily functioning, including executive dysfunction, motivation, impulsivity, time management, emotion regulation, and self-criticism. I take a holistic, client-centred approach, and aim to understand your lived experience as it is, rather than focusing only on symptom management or productivity strategies.
Our work will explore how ADHD interacts with identity, self-worth, and nervous system regulation, while also addressing the emotional impact of living in a world that may not always feel accommodating. This can be especially important for those who received a later-in-life diagnosis and are making sense of their experiences in new ways.
I draw from Adlerian Therapy, IFS, ACT, EFT, EMDR, and somatic-based strategies to support clients in developing both practical coping tools and deeper understanding. Together, we’ll work toward greater self-compassion, regulation, and strategies that are realistic and sustainable for your life.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to learn more about my approach.

Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
ADHD is far more nuanced than the common image of a restless child who can't sit still — it is a lifelong neurological condition that affects attention regulation, executive functioning, emotional sensitivity, and sense of self in ways that often go unrecognized well into adulthood. At Nightingale Counselling, we have a particular expertise in identifying and supporting adults with undiagnosed ADHD, especially women, who have spent years masking their struggles and may have come to see themselves as lazy, unreliable, or overwhelmed without understanding why. Our approach combines psychoeducation, acceptance-focused therapy, and close collaboration with diagnostic and medical services, because we believe the gold standard for ADHD treatment is one that addresses both the neurological and emotional dimensions of the condition.

Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
If you are navigating ADHD, you may be exhausted by standard behavioural advice that tries to force your mind into a rigid, neurotypical mold. My virtual practice in Vancouver, BC, focuses on how your unique cognitive rhythm lives within your nervous system rather than pathologizing your style of focus. Through gentle somatic curiosity and experiential tracking, I help you develop a deeper self-knowing that honours how your brain naturally processes and engages with the world.

Vancouver's extreme housing affordability crisis has become a defining mental health issue, with therapists frequently addressing financial stress, housing precarity, and the grief of displacement from a city many can no longer afford to stay in. The city's large Asian community — particularly its Chinese, Korean, Filipino, and South Asian populations — drives demand for culturally fluent therapists who can navigate family dynamics, immigration stress, and the intersection of cultural expectations with individual wellbeing. BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services provides institutional support, while Vancouver's large private therapy community is concentrated in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive, and the West End. BC's expanded telehealth access makes it easier to connect with therapists across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.
