Adlerian Therapists in Vancouver, BC
My name is Bruce Avery. I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Certified Sex Therapist, and the founder of Avery Therapy Centre. Most of my clients come from marginalized backgrounds and are queer and BIPOC. I work with a wide range of people who may seek increased perspective, self-understanding, and clarity in their everyday lives. I also work with people who may feel that anxiety, depression, or trauma (past/current) is hindering them from achieving a sense of fulfillment and purpose. I've found the work of counselling to be incredibly fulfilling, and feel honoured when trusted with the opportunity to learn about someone’s life.

My approach to counselling is a psychodynamic, person-centred, and trauma-informed approach. The psychodynamic approach can help us gain new insights into our lives, and by integrating art into the session, it can become a powerful mind-body-oriented resource for individuals to look into themselves, and at their concerns, from a different angle.

Having an addicted person in your life can feel like a nightmare and tear your family apart. In order for addiction to have a chance of healing, we must first address the dynamics of the addict's relationships with their loved ones. Many loved ones unwittingly enable the addiction to continue, sometimes because they want to avoid confrontation and conflict. As the enabling continues, the addiction continues as well-and becomes progressively worse. It is important to understand that enabling an addict is never a loving act-and only leads to more severe consequences as time goes on.

There are times when we just don’t feel like ourselves. For some of us, this means feeling overwhelmed by our thoughts and emotions, while for others the disconnect can come from feeling nothing at all. This internal “ickiness” can show up through our emotions, thoughts, or in our body, and is often a scary, confusing, and unsettling experience. This intuitive feeling is typically caused by misalignment; whether it’s having conflict within ourselves, feeling out of step with those close to us, or feeling out of place in the world around us.

Do you struggle with self-blame, fear of judgment, or saying no? Are you taking on too much responsibility or feeling unproductive? Many of my clients like you feel pressured to meet high expectations and avoid mistakes—not just from perfectionism, but from a fear of letting others down. They may internalize criticism and ruminate on perceived faults or 'failures,' which fuels a cycle of anxiety and self-doubt. For some, this stems from past experiences where expressing needs wasn’t encouraged, or they were told they were 'wrong' for how they felt. You may feel unseen, or not enough, which can drain energy and block self-care.

Do you feel like your anxiety rules your mind and you have no control? You may constantly battle racing thoughts, struggling to focus, and feeling restless about various aspects of your life. While striving for excellence and witnessing others' success, you're often left feeling anxious, inadequate, and behind. Even when you perform well and receive praise, you still doubt your achievements, feeling unworthy or as though there's more you should be doing. It is incredibly challenging for you to communicate your feelings and needs to others because you feel guilty asking for help and fear you may burden others. But there's a way out.

I am a Jamaican living in Vancouver. As a recent immigrant, I am aware of how the process and experience of forging a new life can bring both satisfaction and distress especially in intimate relationships. Life transitions can cause emotional stress and often, we need help to tap into our own inherent strengths. Sexuality and sexual behaviours can also be challenging for some but, I am passionate about working with individuals and couples of all genders, orientations, races and ethnicities. I also specialize in addictions which I view as a maladaptive coping skill for traumatic situations.

Feeling misunderstood or unseen, especially in a world that doesn’t always make room for neurodivergent experiences? Does rejection feel catastrophic? Perhaps you're facing barriers that compound your challenges—whether they come from society, culture, or systems that were never designed with you in mind. You might be seeking a space where you can express yourself authentically, where the urgency of the outside world slows down, and where you’re able to explore your emotions and thoughts without judgment.
