Parenting Therapists in North Vancouver, BC

It's common to feel alone with your problems. Worries, depression, a difficult relationship, or a painful loss may feel heavy and make it hard to cope. You and possibly your partner might feel discouraged by thinking your problems will not get better. Counselling can help. A therapeutic conversation is different than talking with a friend or loved one. It's a recognized way of developing greater self-awareness. You can safely explore your thoughts, feelings, and find ways to build resilience. Resilience helps you handle life more capably and happily. You can begin to feel hopeful as the weight you have been carrying begins to lift.

I am deeply committed to supporting parents in the understanding of themselves and their children, and to guide them back to the inner knowing that they are their child’s best bet. My work with teens and young adults, as they move across that bridge between dependence and independence, has been some of the most rewarding. My holistic approach draws on my years of study in the works of Dr. Gordon Neufeld, James Hollis, Dr. Daniel Seigel, Dr. Gabor Mate and The Gottman Method. It is with these and other evidence based modalities that I endeavor to support my clients in living their true potential.

I am a narrative trained therapist who believes in collaboration, curiosity, and respect. When dilemmas and obstacles grow big enough, they can come to dominate our lives, pulling us towards dark ideas and stories in which we can feel hopeless, lost, scared, and disconnected. It is my aim as a therapist to work with clients to identify the challenges in their lives and explore how to move into more spaces of joy and preferred ways of living.

It is common to struggle with challenges and issues that seem difficult to approach. At times you may feel stuck or hopeless, and lack insight or skills required to deal with the problem!

You may be facing a challenge in your personal life, with your child, or with your partner; whichever is the case I can support you with my expertise and experience, and help you implement positive change in your life.

I understand firsthand how much of a balancing act life can be. I know that life can present challenges that take us off course and result in feelings of frustration, anxiety, and fear.

Hi there! My name is Kiana and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with a Master's Degree in Counselling. As a young girl, I always found myself drawn to helping others. I struggled to feel confident and accepted by others at school, so I promised myself that when I grew up, I would orient my career towards supporting and comforting others. I take an Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) approach to therapy, meaning that I see hardships in life as being inevitable. By helping you discover your core life values, you can live a life that is positive and meaningful, despite having to navigate painful experiences.

Are you feeling down or anxious? We all, at some stage in our lives, may face difficult situations and life challenges. It may be related to our relationships, conflicts with family members, loss of a loved one, adaptation, education, or illness. Facing these challenges may lead us to lose hope and focus on daily life tasks and routines. These feelings may lead us to think, nothing will ever change or get better, or there is no bright tomorrow in our future. What’s important is the way we view things and with whom we can share our most personal thoughts, feelings, and fears. I'm here to support you in a non-judgmental way.

Each one of us is connected to others through relationships - the vitality of these bonds is crucial for our well being. Yet, relating to others may at times seem like trying to crack a secret code. Do you struggle to have your needs met? Your voice heard? Or maybe you just want to be better understood by others? I believe learning to get what you need from others and from life is a process that starts with ourselves. I will be with you as we challenge the obstacles and bring decisions into line with your values.

The modern psychological attitudes toward achieving a healthy, happy and fulfilling life are not necessarily limited to problem-solving. Reaching happiness and inner satisfaction requires education and changes in lifestyle.

I am focused on how the brain is wired, how it responds to threat and what needs to happen in order to propel us towards optimal mental health and wellness. I focus my work on helping clients repair the emotional wounds that cause them distress and hold them back from living their best life possible.

I'm passionate about helping my clients better understand themselves. This self-awareness is the key to overcoming difficult emotions such as anxiety, depression, low mood, stress, and overwhelm.
