This includes elements of mindfulness, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), internal family systems (IFS), and unconditional positive regard.
To me, having a therapist is having someone to walk with you through life, which we all sometimes need. I hope I can walk with you through your unique journey to a place of healing. I have supported clients with a variety of challenges, including depression, anxiety, PTSD and women’s issues. I especially enjoy helping those who have gone through medical trauma and cope with chronic health issues. I know these issues are unique, and finding someone who understands the emotions that come with them can be challenging. I also greatly enjoy supporting parents and facilitating all types of relationship counselling

The theories that resonate the most with me are internal family systems (we have different parts of ourselves that may feel different ways at any given time), attachment (our past deeply impacts our present and our relationships), and narrative therapy (the story we tell ourselves about ourselves).
Hi! Thank you for taking a moment to read my bio and see if I am a good fit for you at this time. My approach is simple; I want you to achieve your goals. Maybe your goal is feeling more like yourself, processing an unanticipated event in your life, or learning what it takes to make some changes. I will support and equip you through it all. As a professional coach and counsellor, we will discuss your past, present, and future at a pace dictated by you. I try to offer structure and flexibility as we navigate our time together and try to understand all the aspects of your life to get a clear picture of what it feels like to be you.

I use Hakomi Mindfulness-based Body-Psychotherapy, Narrative Therapy, Systemic Family Therapy, and Internal Family Systems-informed approaches to therapy and counselling.
We all carry multiple stories about our selves, our lives, and our experiences. There are parts in our stories that are sometimes hidden from our awareness. It is in the calm noticing, re-discovery, and re-telling of our stories that we can find and connect with parts of ourselves that may need healing, and also parts of ourselves that are insightful, strong, and brilliant even in the midst of hardship and darkness. Through facilitating, witnessing, and holding space together, we can engage in our personal work of healing. I look forward to connecting with you.

Hey there! My name is Jeremy and I'm glad you're looking into some mental health supports. Whether it is for yourself or for someone you know, looking into different therapy options can be overwhelming with all the options out there, so it can be helpful to have a general idea of what some of your counselling goals might be and go from there. Phone consultations are a great way to see if you might be a good fit with each other as well. I believe in everyone's ability to create changes for themselves and haven't met a client I haven't learned from yet!

Life is stressful. Work, family and friends, parenting. So many early life experiences continue to impact our quality of life: abuse, medical and other trauma, family dynamics, loss. We know physical and emotional are interwoven and must be treated as such. Mind body connection with physical symptoms and emotional pain is real. The body remembers old trauma and tells us things are not right. It also heals when we pay attention to the right things and build in resources.

My name is Arevik (Air-ah-vick) and I would like to help you find a clear path to the complex journey that you are currently on. Sometimes our lives can become foggy with life transitions, extra responsibilities, social and familial pressures... At times it can simply feel too much. We may start feeling overwhelmed, lost, and unmotivated about our next steps. Working harder does not seem to do the trick and soon, we end up burning out and feeling hopeless. I am here to guide you towards a more manageable path, one that feels more inviting.

Life can be challenging and messy. Taking care of yourself and your mental health does not have to be.

Family Therapy Counsellors

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
