Sex Therapists in North Vancouver, BC

These are unique and challenging times. We are faced with very real stressors that can trigger lots of anxiety. What is happening right now can also activate past trauma. Financial concerns, health concerns, worrying about loved ones, having to adjust to living with each other...it can bring out the best and the worst of us. If you have already been struggling with disconnect, unresolved conflict and hurt, or unhealthy ways of coping, now is the time to reach out. I have a very compassionate yet practical approach and focus on providing you with tools that will enable you to make positive life and love changes

I am passionate about working with women and addressing issues that are standing in the way of you experiencing life from a place of joy, self-love and empowerment. As women we tend to wear many hats such as daughter, mother, spouse, caregiver, career woman. Low self-esteem, co-dependency or inability to say no, feeling responsible, poor body image, fertility issues, sexual abuse or abuse, perfectionism or emotional eating...all these challenges can create stress and overwhelm which can lead to anxiety, depression and more.

Are you looking for someone who understands both your cultural background and your feelings? I am a Chinese-Canadian bilingual therapist raised by two clashing cultures. I understand the pain of separating from family. I know what it's like to grow up not getting the emotional support you needed to feel your feelings mattered. Struggling to figure out where you belong, while coping with conflicting feelings is hard to do on your own. I'd like to change that for you. With me, you will have a safe space to discover the real you, along with your deepest needs and work together on bringing those to life.

I collaborate with my clients to create validating and empowering therapy for folx who identify as 2SLGBTQ+, non-monogamous, kinky, gender-diverse, alternative, and people with intersectional identities. With a diverse toolkit rooted in research-based methodologies, we can navigate complexities around sex and sexuality with authenticity and understanding. You may wish to work with me if you are looking for support in embracing your sexuality, forging meaningful connections and living authentically.

At Allura, we know and understand that sexuality is one of the most fun but complicated parts of humanity, while also one of the hardest to find a safe and non-judgmental space to speak openly about. Do you feel overwhelmed when you think about your sexuality, sex life, or relationship? Do you wish for more connection and excitement with your partner? Do you sometimes feel stress or anxiety fill your life? We can help with that. Our clients are professionals, parents, sometimes monogamous and sometimes polyamorous, LGBTQ+ - but they all share one thing in common: they are struggling with their sexuality in some way.

Life can feel incredibly painful when we are feeling disconnected, isolated, and ridden with distressing thoughts, memories and emotions. Together, we can make space for the parts of you needing to express that pain. By experiencing, and embracing the disenfranchised parts of you, we can move into a life rich with meaning and fulfillment.

Hi, I’m Jenna! As a Registered Clinical Counsellor, I have extensive experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, and sexual or relationship issues. My research background and clinical expertise centres around men’s mental health and sexuality, with a specific focus on supporting clients who have survived sexual trauma. I am also adept in supporting individuals with substance use issues and mood disorders, such as Bipolar or Schizophrenia.

Many of the problems we experience in life can be traced back to parts of ourself that are wounded or not properly integrated. I help you to reflect and make sense of your experience, and to work through areas of your life that bring discomfort. In moving through these discomforts/stuck areas in a new way, you release these wounds, become free from their grasp & move into more aligned, embodied & authentic living. We cannot fully integrate (become whole in our life) unless we heal and integrate all parts (this includes shadow work, healing parental and childhood wounds, ego work, sacred sexuality, reprogramming belief systems).

As a relationship, individual, and sex focused therapist my purpose is to help you and your partner(s) rebuild connection. If you have low sexual desire in your relationship, are feeling torn about recent infidelity to stay together, or you need tools for effective communication to help your relationship, its likely you are questioning whether to stay in your relationship. In my approach, I seek to deepen your lost connections using the courage and vulnerability you bring into session. There is a space opened for you here to explore your new found sense of meaning and growth through boundaries both with yourself and your partner(s).

With over 30 years of direct counselling experience as a Relationship & Sexual Intimacy therapist Trevor has helped over 1,000 couples reclaim the lost connection in their partnerships and has earned the reputation of “Relationship Expert” in Vancouver’s lower mainland. With Trevor’s support via 90-minute counselling sessions or his unique 3-Day/18hr Couples Immersions he can help you resolve a number of common relationship challenges including a breakdown in communication, feeling distant from your partner, inability to resolve ongoing conflict, feeling sexually unfulfilled, or even dealing with the devastating impact of an affair.

It is human to struggle, we all have our ups and downs and being isolated in our emotional experience can just make it worse. Most emotions and behaviour makes sense in context. However, when left on our own to try to piece together our challenges, we can find ourselves plagued with self doubt and often feel lost. Therapy can help you see your situation objectively, accept even the imperfect parts of yourself, and work to use these parts as a roadmap into better health and well-being. We are not always able to control what life throws our way, but with help, we can transform these experiences into personal growth and wisdom.

Do you wonder why some painful patterns keep coming up over and over again, despite your best intentions? Are you longing to find peace amidst the endless ups and downs? The conflicts in your life are calling out to you, because they are looking for your attention, love and a space to transform. You have the opportunity to begin a new relationship with yourself, with others, and find the freedom to choose a different path, one that nourishes you. I am here to walk with you, on your journey from struggle to ease, from separateness to wholeness, and from pain to a deep love.

I have sixteen years of training and clinical experience working with individuals and couples. Clients come to me usually when they are feeling stuck, overwhelmed or at a crossroad. My clients are often wanting a deeper sense of self-understanding, more peace and fulfillment in their lives.

My style is warm, attentive, & engaged. I am strongly committed to my clients and will accompany and support you as you find your way through what life has brought you.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling with their sense of identity, most often as a result of life changes, health challenges, family/relationship issues, or managing multiple cultural identities. Together, we can navigate through challenges, make sense of past experiences and ease areas you are feeling stuck. I will support you in finding deeper meaning, developing new understandings of yourself, nurturing relationships, and discovering new ways of being that enrich your life.

In my role as a counselor, I am committed to provide support and guidance to individuals facing various challenges on their life journey. I'm specialised in addressing issues related to immigration, relationships, self-esteem, personal development. If you appreciate being challenged, seek valuable insights, and desire those illuminating "aha moments" that lead to a deeper understanding of yourself, I invite you to reach out. I am currently accepting new clients and am eager to embark on a transformative journey with you. Together, we can navigate the complexities of life and work towards achieving the positive changes you seek.

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.

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.

If you are here you are probably not feeling great. It could be related to your self-esteem, your relationships, your body and health, your work, or maybe you have been through something traumatic and need help moving on. You might just have the uneasy sense that your life could be better than it is right now. I can offer you a safe space to explore yourself and the realities that you are facing in your life and develop strategies and tools that will help you create the life you deserve. I fit well with people who are looking to deepen their understanding and who are ready to find ways to make the changes they need in their lives.

I authentically connect with children, youth and families, and have experience working with clients who are at-risk. I use a client-centered, holistic approach, meaning I focus on helping the individual work on their "whole self". I also work with my clients collaboratively, understanding differing needs.

As a clinical therapist, I believe in the importance of building a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. Within my practice, I strive to cultivate a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere where any thoughts, emotions, and experiences are welcome. Recognizing that every individual is unique, I offer a holistic and integrative approach, adapting and tailoring my approach to fit each client’s needs. My intention is to work collaboratively with each client to foster positive change and promote healing. I feel honoured and grateful to walk alongside you throughout your journey.

I specialize in relationship counselling for individuals and couples. Clients often come to me for support with building trust, navigating the transition to parenthood, dealing with relationship anxiety, coping with low intimacy or desire, healing from a relationship ending, and building healthy communication.

My passion is helping clients understand how they show up in relationships and feel capable of making real change.
