Ferzana Jamani
Counsellor/Therapist, BA, RTC
I want you to know me beyond my credentials. I grew up feeling invisible and inadequate, struggling with anxiety and low mood, and limiting beliefs that tainted my relationships. It took volunteering and self-reflection to recognize my own worth and seek help. It was a journey of healing for me too, as I confronted my insecurities and found connection and purpose and my dedication in serving others. Now, as a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, I’m committed to guiding you with care and compassion. Therapy with me consists of transpersonal and somatic techniques focusing on your growth, emotional experiences and connecting your body and mind. Together we will explore your inner emotional experiences to help you repair the pain you have experienced and support you in feeling seen, heard and ultimately thrive, honouring your pace and vulnerabilities every step of the way.
I offer personalized sessions to address your unique needs, fostering insight and resilience. In a safe and supportive space, I provide active listening and empathy to build trust. Equipping you with tools for stress management, communication, and self-esteem, we navigate challenges together. Taking the first step toward therapy can be transformative; I invite you to schedule a FREE introductory consultation. Let’s unlock your potential and create positive change, empowering you to embrace the life you deserve.

Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
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.

Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
I believe therapy should make room for the full context of our lives, including the experiences, relationships, and systems that shape us. My approach is grounded in social justice and a commitment to affirming care. I work collaboratively and relationally, drawing on experiential and somatic approaches to help clients explore their experiences, better understand themselves, and process trauma.
My work is primarily trauma-focused, integrating EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Brainspotting, and somatic regulation techniques. Our work can include exploration, curiosity, and making sense of your experiences, alongside deeper trauma work when you're ready. I have a strong focus on concussion recovery and a particular interest in supporting People of the Global Majority, 2SLGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent folks, people living with chronic illness and disability, and frontline healthcare professionals. I also offer direct billing to ICBC for eligible counselling sessions.
I offer online counselling through a secure video platform.
