Matthew Pitts
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and driven, yet internally struggling with relationship conflict, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, career stress, or recurring interpersonal patterns that leave them feeling stuck. Therapy can offer a space to better understand these experiences, navigate difficult emotions and relationships, and develop more grounded and meaningful ways forward. My approach is collaborative, reflective, compassionate and direct when helpful. I aim to create a space where clients can explore difficult emotions honestly, while feeling supported, understood, and challenged toward growth. Prior to becoming a Registered Psychotherapist, I worked as a family law lawyer. That experience informs my understanding of conflict, emotional strain, and the complexity people carry beneath outward competence. My life experience also includes marriage, parenthood, and work within finance/asset management which shapes the perspective I bring into therapy. In couples work, I help partners better understand recurring cycles of conflict so that more emotionally honest, insightful and productive conversations may emerge. Whether for individual therapy or couples therapy, finding the right fit is essential. I invite you to reach out for a brief consultation to see if we would work well together.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Many of the adults I work with feel stuck in patterns shaped by complex trauma and early relationships. You may notice this showing up as persistent anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or relationship cycles that feel difficult to break—even when you intellectually understand them.
Together, we gently explore the roots of these patterns and how they developed. As these survival strategies begin to make sense, you can move toward a greater sense of clarity, internal stability, and a more compassionate way of relating to yourself and others.

Lauren Kalvari
Registered Social Worker, PhD, MSW, RSW
Very little about human experience surprises me anymore — yet people continue to move and inspire me.
I am deeply open-minded, curious, and grounded in a strong sense of relational and community responsibility. My work is shaped by decades of clinical practice and by a lived understanding of complexity, resilience, and care under pressure. I bring steadiness, intuition, and a thoughtful sense of humour into the therapeutic space, creating an environment where people can feel safe enough to speak honestly and begin to heal.
I am also attentive to the spiritual, cultural, and meaning-making dimensions of people's lives, including experiences of spiritual or religious harm, loss of community, and the search to rebuild identity after trauma. Therapy is not about fixing what is broken, but about creating space for integration, dignity, safety, and renewed choice.
Professionally, I have worked within provincial mental health and welfare systems and continue to support charitable and community-based initiatives focused on intimate partner violence. I have also been involved in a federally funded research project examining coercive control and the challenges faced by culturally insular communities, work that informs my clinical and supervisory practice.
My therapeutic approach is integrative, relational and responsive to each person's inner world and culture. I draw primarily from psychodynamic and relational traditions, alongside somatic and trauma-informed approaches, adapting therapy to the pace, needs and lived experience of the individual. This includes support for individuals affected by intimate partner violence, spiritual abuse, and trauma within religious or culturally insular communities.

Jennifer Morley
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA, BSc, BA, CCPA
It’s not easy being human right now. Especially when you’re carrying anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, or the quiet exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for everyone else. I work with individuals and couples who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves or the people they care about, and who are ready for meaningful change.
My approach to therapy is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, helping clients build insight, emotional regulation, and healthier patterns in relationships. I place strong emphasis on safety, trust, and understanding the whole person, not just the symptoms that brought them to therapy.
I have extensive experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, high stress, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. I believe therapy should feel like a space where you don’t have to perform, explain away your feelings, or have it all figured out. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and work toward greater clarity, connection, and emotional ease.

Jamie Inderjeit
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, hBS
I offer low-cost therapy services for anyone in need of a space to feel respected and heard. Rather than instructing you on what to do, my preference is to learn about your upbringing and all that you've experienced, so that I can better understand the source of your feelings. I've found that once clients can recognize the 'why' behind their emotions, reestablishing control over their lives becomes achievable. From start to finish, you'll be completely supported throughout your therapeutic journey.
I specialize in anger management, addiction (online gambling), burnout, men's issues, and ADHD management. Of course, you're welcome to bring anything into our sessions. Whatever the topic of our work together, it'll always be conducted in a zero judgement space.
You deserve to be supported and cared for. Those challenges you've been facing can be overcome with the help of a professional. If you're in need of a safe space where you can openly explore your feelings and find a way forward, feel free to reach out so we can get our first session together started.

Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
I know firsthand what it is like to live, move, and survive in a world that was simply not built with our bodies or identities in mind. As a blind therapist with low vision, my practice is informed by a heightened sensory and energetic attunement to movement, vocal expression, and the felt sense of what passes between us online. As a trans, queer, genderflux femme (she/they), I am deeply committed to providing accessible, non-gatekeeping care that actively welcomes your gender euphoria alongside your systemic exhaustion.
In this online therapy space, the burden of translation is completely removed from your shoulders. You do not have to spend our time explaining or justifying the daily impacts of ableism, transphobia, or marginalization; you are met exactly where you are with an immediate, shared resonance. We will work at a pace that respects your boundaries, allowing you to safely unpack your burdens and build a deeper, kinder relationship with your own body. For local clients in the Vancouver area, we can also explore moving our therapy outdoors for walk-and-talk sessions once we have firmly established our therapeutic foundation and connection.

Kate Paul
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Hi, I’m Kate. I help individuals and couples navigate trauma, relational pain, and emotional overwhelm. Together, we’ll explore the roots of your challenges, to help you feel more grounded and empowered.
Past hurts can echo into the present: quick triggers, shutdowns, or the same fight on repeat. Trauma, whether from earlier life experiences or broken trust in relationships, can leave you feeling unsafe in your body and disconnected from the people who matter most.
My approach is compassionate, and collaborative. We will work at a pace that feels manageable, so you can restore trust in yourself and in your relationships.
