Perimenopause and menopause can bring unexpected emotional and physical changes, including anxiety, mood swings, irritability, grief, hot flashes, sleep difficulties, and a loss of confidence or sense of self. Together, we'll explore how this transition is affecting your emotional well being, relationships, and daily life while developing practical strategies to help you cope with these changes and reconnect with yourself. My goal is to help you navigate this stage of life with greater understanding, resilience, and confidence.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
As you know firsthand, moving through the world as a female can come with unique challenges. I offer a safe space to process your experiences, explore your emotions, and connect with your most authentic, embodied self. My mission is to empower sensitive and soulful women to step into the truth of who they are unapologetically. Together, we will work collaboratively to identify all the ways you've been programmed to go outside of yourself for validation and security and help you find the inner peace and freedom you long for. I have experience supporting women with a range of struggles including: fertility and reproductive health, PMDD, gender based violence (sexual assault or harassment), self esteem, body image/disordered eating, work life balance, societal expectations about women’s roles as mothers or caregivers, and assertive communication/boundary setting. I offer in-person, virtual or walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you—head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation.

Shelley Klammer
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you consider yourself spiritual, empathic, intuitive, creative, deep-thinking, or highly sensitive (HSP)? Do you sometimes struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Are you frequently the empath to the narcissist in your relationships? Do you often ignore what you need and feel codependent or are overly self-reliant in your connections with others?
Do you sense that “younger,” unhealed aspects within you might be sabotaging your health, livelihood, relationships, or your willingness to ask for support? I specialize in supporting women to heal “unfinished emotional business” from the past in a strength-focused, non-pathologizing, depth-oriented, and strictly confidential way.

GrewpTogether.ca
Pre-Licensed Professional, BPHE, MRE, MACP
Thankfully we have a fuller picture now. Women hold systemic and cultural roles that may or may not "feel right, fair, or ok" to hold. Sometimes women can be left questioning themselves and working on "being a better wife, mother, daughter, caregiver, etc. when in fact they need permission to look at things from a broader perspective, find their voice, feel freedom, and then choose who they want to be from that place. Layered into all of this is our bodies, our rage, and expectations culture places on how we can move and express ourselves. I can listen, I can support, and help you tap into your own wisdom.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Women’s issues can encompass a wide range of experiences, including challenges related to identity, relationships, self-worth, boundaries, life transitions, motherhood, fertility, sexuality, and the pressures placed on women in today’s world. You might find yourself navigating conflicting expectations, carrying emotional or mental load in relationships, struggling with people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from your own needs and voice.
In our work together, I will create a space to explore your experiences as a woman in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll look at how personal history, relationships, and broader social and cultural influences may be shaping how you see yourself and move through the world. The focus is on helping you reconnect with your own needs, values, and sense of agency.
I draw from approaches such as ACT, IFS, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique experiences and goals. Together, we’ll work on strengthening self-trust, boundaries, emotional regulation, and self-compassion, while also supporting deeper healing and empowerment.
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 see if we’re a good fit.

Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCC
Traditionally research, healthcare and mental health care lacked focus on women's issues, but thankfully the times have changed on this! I support women or anyone identifying as a woman, providing the gender-affirming space and compassionate-care to explore the unique psychological, biological, and societal challenges that we face. My approaches in this work are deeply rooted in compassion, mindfulness, self-care and through a feminist-lens, recognizing that a woman's mental health is shaped by cultural expectations, systemic pressures, and hormonal transitions such as PMDD, perimenopause and menopause.

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.
