Adults Therapists in North Vancouver, BC

I am a Registered Psychologist with over a decade of experience working in diverse mental health and community treatment settings. I specialize in trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, substance use and addictions. My approach is caring, non-judgemental, and empathetic. I draw on evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help you overcome difficult experiences and work towards your treatment goals. My goal is to help you find happiness and fulfillment in your life through working to reduce unpleasant symptoms, build on resilience and strength, and develop new ways of coping. I aim to help you leave with tools and confidence!

Her work focuses on inspiring/helping people towards a holistic relationship ​with self so they are empowered to ​see, accept and heal themselves and be the author ​of their own story. She has a warm, caring and collaborative approach in her work. Life events can be very impactful and Marcela is skilled in maintaining safety and connection with her integrative approach. Compassion, inclusion, warm & empowerment is what you experience as she believes in ​expression, reflection and movement and being your authentic self.

My approach to treatment is client-centered and strengths-based. My relationship with my clients is based on a shared vision for progress in therapy, non-judgment, and mutual respect. I generously use humour and metaphor in my work, and I encourage my clients to control the pace of therapy to suit their needs and values best.

I am a UK qualified clinical psychologist, who relocated to beautiful North Vancouver with my family in 2014. I have almost 20 years of clinical experience supporting youth (14+) and adults of all ages with a wide variety of presenting concerns (such as anxiety or depression) particularly in the context of life transitions, including long-term physical health conditions. My clinical practice is evidence-based and collaborative at its core; my goal as a therapist is support you to create and develop a life of meaning and value. Together, we will co-create a therapeutic approach that makes sense to you.

With over 30 years of experience in counselling and teaching, I am dedicated to addressing gender, youth, women's issues, neurodivergence, and transitions across the lifespan. Life changes can be challenging, but also empowering and growth-oriented. I am passionate about helping individuals, adults, youth, and families find new ways to open up and untie the complex knots in their lives so they can see new solutions and achieve their dreams. I am here to believe in YOU.

To all appearances you’ve got a great life. You’re smart, driven, & successful. But privately, you sometimes struggle with negative thoughts you have about who you are, what you are worth, and what you've done with your life. These stubborn thoughts and beliefs affect every aspect of your life: your health, your school, your career, your relationships, and your self-esteem. You try to keep them at bay but you're exhausted from the effort and you want to break free of them and live again. You want to feel seen, supported & understood by someone you can trust. You're ready for something new.

Thank you for making the courageous step to seek therapy. I am passionate about supporting children (8+) and parents, youths and adults with concerns related to OCD and anxiety, but also offer support to individuals who are dealing with stress, panic, grief, loss, heartbreak, trauma, depression and life transitions. I am trained to provide specialized I-CBT treatment for OCD and have helped many clients to take charge of their OCD and anxiety. I have experience working with diverse populations, and I welcome folks from all walks of life to connect with me.

I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor who loves working with children, teenagers, adults and parents toward a fulfilling life that is envisioned by them. I believe that seeking counselling is one of the most important decisions that people can make for themselves and their loved ones. Embarking on a journey of self growth and healing can be difficult; yet, I know firsthand that the results are worthwhile. Most clients work with me to better manage stress, anxiety, depression, marital challenges, family conflicts, phobias and ADHD.

I tend to work with young adults who, in one way or another, are struggling to change. They have the frustrating sense that they are getting in their own way yet are unsure of what to do about it. Together, we deconstruct their defense mechanisms which, although protect them from unwanted feelings and experiences, ultimately stunt their growth.

At Nova Mental Health, we focus on creating a warm, collaborative, and engaging atmosphere while incorporating the latest research evidence and best-practice guidelines to help children, teens, adults and couples move through challenges. Our aim is to provide you with new tools and strategies that can help you reach your goals. We are a team of psychologists, counsellors and social workers offering online (video conferencing) and some in-person therapy. You can read more about each of our areas of practice on our website.

My hope is that the work of counselling can be a transformative, comforting, and challenging spot to land during difficult circumstances. I have enjoyed the collaborative moments of insight into ongoing painful circumstances and sharing a laugh despite mountainous difficulties. For over twenty years in various capacities, being able to share in life’s joys and heartaches has been a great privilege.

Are you a youth or young adult who struggles with anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, relationship conflict, or ADHD? Does this impact your day-to-day life, relationships, or ability to function? Do you feel stressed, tired, overwhelmed, and/or frustrated? Are you ready for us to help you make changes so life can be fulfilling?

Since 2004 I've been committed to supporting adults, adolescents, families, and couples engage their growth and realize new possibilities for themselves. I offer an honest and compassionate approach. My aim is to help you identify what is actually going on beneath the surface so you can reclaim your power and capacity for choice. Our work together is about clearing burdens of the past and articulating visions of what is possible.

My professional wheelhouse is working with adults experiencing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) or anxiety.

I am a Registered Psychologist (R.Psych.) and work with adults who are struggling with issues related to anxiety, worry/rumination, depression, anger, and stress. I work primarily from a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) approach, and strive to develop a collaborative relationship to help clients address difficulties that are negatively impacting the quality of their lives. I pride myself on providing a safe, warm, non-judgmental, and inclusive environment for the clients I work with. I realize it can be difficult to reach out for help, or even to know where to start.
