Suzanne St. John Smith
Counsellor/Therapist, M.A., M.A. (Psych.) FEA, C.C.C Relationship and Family Therapist; Life Coach
The reason clients return time after time, and year after year, is due to the fact that I've made it a priority to build a strong connection with them. I listen, I guide them when they ask, and I'm honest with my feedback. Simply, they trust me. and nothing could be more important to me or to them. And because my work has always felt like both an honour and a gift, I value the opportunity of being brought into the emotional lives of my clients where I can offer them the kind of safe space they may not have ever experienced previously.

Yuka Oshimi
Counsellor/Therapist, MC, RCC, RCC-ACS (c), DCP(c), ADHD-CCSP
Hi! My name is Yuka (She/Her), and I am glad that you are here.
I’m a neurodivergent Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) and Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS) candidate with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors, and a person of colour with lived experience navigating neurodivergence. I hold a Master of Counselling degree from Monash University and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of British Columbia with a Major in Psychology and a Minor in Law and Society. I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Counselling and Psychotherapy degree to further my education, deepen my expertise, and contribute to neurodiversity research and practice.
My personal journey, including undergoing brain surgery and navigating mental health challenges, has fueled my passion for clinical counselling and holistic well-being, encompassing both mind and body. Born in Japan, raised in Singapore, and now living in Canada, I bring a multicultural perspective that honours the intersection of culture, identity, and lived experience in every session.

You don’t have to have your life perfectly figured out, and things don’t need to look flawless on paper to justify seeking support. Sometimes, you just feel a persistent sense that something is off, even if you can’t quite put your finger on it right now. Whether you are a creative, an entrepreneur, a business owner, a mother, or a father, it is incredibly common to find yourself quietly exhausted, feeling stuck, or questioning if the way you’ve been living actually works for you anymore. You might just feel ready for a change and a return to who you truly are.Traditional talk therapy is wonderful, but often the root of our pain or patterns lives deeper than words can reach. In my practice, I utilize Brainspotting—a powerful, neuro-experiential modality that serves as a way of working through deep-seated issues without having to talk through them endlessly. By integrating Brainspotting with nervous system regulation, CBT, and somatic tools, we look beneath the surface to safely locate and process hidden emotional stress, anxiety, or stored trauma. Together, we will finally take down the heavy things that have been "sitting on the shelf" for years, gently breaking them down into manageable, bite-sized pieces so your nervous system never feels overwhelmed.I support individuals navigating:A general sense of "stuckness," low mood, or a lost direction—even if it's hard to nameThe everyday pressures of running a business, creative burnout, or parenting demandsGently processing early life dynamics or long-standing patterns that still echo in your life todayReclaiming your personal boundaries and safely reconnecting with your body after times of stress or disruption. Overcoming deep-seated people-pleasing patterns, self-doubt, and an absence of self-compassionIf you’re feeling unseen or simply ready for something to shift, I’m here to support you. Together, we’ll create a supportive, collaborative path forward. I offer individual online therapy as well as healing group therapy sessions designed to help you reconnect and grow.

Sophia Kopelow
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
Do you find yourself getting overwhelmed and overstimulated easily? Tend to overthink or feel anxious? Or perhaps you’ve been called “too sensitive” or emotional? Have you ever noticed that you take longer to process things, and need more downtime than others? If any of this resonates, you, like myself, might be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), and I’m so glad you’re here.
I understand how it feels to process things more deeply, to have a strong desire for purpose and meaning in the world and to connect to a spiritual practice. My mission is to help guide other sensitive souls embrace their sensitivity as a gift, and to step into their most authentic, confident and aligned version of themselves. I want to help you work with it rather than against it. I provide counselling for individuals and couples with a wide range of challenges including: anxiety, depression, healing trauma, relationship difficulties, spiritual/religious exploration, emotional regulation, life transitions, self esteem/self worth, disordered eating, personal growth and struggles related to neurodivergence (HSP, Autism, ASHD). We all need someone who embodies the phrase, “I see you, and I care”, and I’m honoured to have the opportunity to be that for my clients. Your inner experience matters.
I believe the world is a better place when more deep feeling, sensitive people feel comfortable and safe in their skin and I can’t wait to support you in this process. This work takes courage, trust and commitment, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to get curious about your inner world, and to start focusing your energy on your own well-being and healing, head to my website to book your free 20-minute consultation. I offer in person, online and walk and talk therapy. I would love to hear from you.
