Frequently Asked Questions

  • You can browse our team profiles to see who feels like a match, or just reach out with a few lines about what you're looking for — we'll help pair you with someone who suits your needs and style.

  • Book a Free Consult and select a time that works for you. You'll receive an intake form if you want to share details, but you don't have to if it doesn't feel right.

  • It's a relaxed 15–20 minute chat where you can share what you're looking for, hear how we work, and get a feel for the counsellor's style. It's low-pressure, no strings attached — just a chance to see if the vibe feels right.

  • That's completely normal. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable — we get it. You don't need to have everything figured out. Just bring yourself, as you are. That's enough.

    • The Outdoor Adventurer
      Living for the next summit, ride, or backcountry challenge? Therapy helps make sense of the internal terrain that's present on every adventure, supporting you through future challenges.

    • The Homebody
      Yes, you exist — even in Squamish! Not everyone's seeking adrenaline rushes. Your quiet, interior world is just as worth exploring.

    • Women in the In-Between
      Not quite in your 20s anymore, but "middle-aged" doesn't fit either. We offer a feminist, life-stage-aware approach to reclaiming this rich (often under-supported) era. Health, hormones, menopause, and so much more.

    • The Expat
      Straddling cultures, missing home, navigating a new normal — therapy can be a grounding space where you don't have to translate yourself. Whether you're bringing British dry humour or longing for a deeper connection, we get it.

    • Caregivers, Parents & Helping Professionals
      Burnout, compassion fatigue, emotional labour — if you spend your life holding others up, it's okay to need space to be held too.

    • First Responders
      You manage high-stress, trauma-exposed roles and still have a personal life to juggle. Therapy offers a confidential space to unpack both.

    • Entrepreneurs & Business Folks
      High-pressure work, leadership stress, impostor syndrome — therapy helps navigate the emotional weight behind high-stakes decisions and carve out that elusive work/life balance.

    • The "Lost Soul"
      Maybe you were the Peter Pan type — seasonal work, freedom, no fixed plans. Now you want more… but you're not sure what "more" looks like. We can work with that.

    • The Neurospicy Crew (ADHD, Autism & Beyond)
      Fast brains, unique wiring, quirky strengths — we get it. We help you better understand your brain, build on your strengths, and explore how this fits with relationships, work, and wellbeing.

    • Men
      We know therapy can feel unfamiliar. We offer a style that suits you — whether that's private space for deep emotional work, something more grounded and pragmatic, or support accessing emotions that aren't always easy to reach.

    • Queer, trans, non-binary, or questioning
      Whether you're out, exploring, or somewhere in between, therapy can be a space where you don't have to explain the basics. Your identity isn't up for debate — just show up as you are, and we'll meet you with curiosity and care.

    • Living in a body that's disabled, chronically ill, or outside the thin ideal
      Whether you're navigating access barriers, medical gaslighting, or trying to rest without guilt, your body isn't the problem. Therapy is a place to be heard, supported, and real, no fixing required.

    • Indigenous, First Nations, and Métis
      We know therapy exists within systems shaped by colonialism. Our aim is to offer space rooted in respect for your lived experience, your knowledge, and your definition of healing.

    • BIPOC folks in mostly white spaces

    Code-switching, cultural load, intergenerational weight — it's exhausting. Therapy can be a space where you don't have to translate or shrink your experience to fit.

  • We provide individual counselling services for clients aged 12 and up, tailoring our approach to be developmentally appropriate for teens, adults, and seniors.

  • Most clients begin with weekly sessions, although we can adjust the frequency based on your needs and schedule. Some people prefer bi-weekly sessions, while others might benefit from more intensive support initially as they work through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or other concerns.

  • This page is far too small to describe all the beautifully complex humans we work with! Just drop us a message sharing a bit about yourself, and we can suggest the best therapist for you.

Life can be messy, complicated, and overwhelming. Sometimes you're holding everything together until something knocks you off balance. Other times, pressure builds silently in the background, making life heavier and harder.

Therapy is a place where you don't have to navigate it alone.
 

Whether you're sorting through something specific or untangling a vague sense of "stuck," individual counselling offers space to pause, reflect, and figure things out. We work with clients aged 12+ from all backgrounds and walks of life.
 

A space that's just for you.

Who We Work With

What Therapy Can Look Like

Depending on where you're at and what you need, therapy can be:

  • Validation and support for the hard stuff

  • Reflection and reframing — like a magic mirror helping you see things more clearly

  • Gentle (or not-so-gentle) challenge to shift patterns that no longer serve you


There's no wrong time to start therapy. You don't need a crisis — maybe you keep getting tripped up by the same patterns, have old stuff lingering in the background, or just feel a quiet itch to reconnect with yourself. That's more than enough.

Therapy session discussion

No matter your background, identity, or where you are in your journey, you're welcome here. We tailor our approach to suit you, working with a diverse range of people, including:

Outdoor Adventurers | Homebodies | Women in Transition | Expats | Caregivers & Parents | First Responders

Entrepreneurs | "Lost Souls" | Neurospicy Crew | Men LGBTQ2S+ Community |Body Diversity

Indigenous Communities | BIPOC Folks

Don't see yourself here? That's okay!

Drop us a message, and we'll help you find the right therapist.

Ready to Start?

There's no one right reason to start therapy — and no perfect way to do it.

What matters is showing up as you are and being curious about what comes next. 

Finding the right therapist makes all the difference.

If it clicks, great.

If not? We'll help you find someone who feels like a better match.

No matter your background, identity, or where you are in your journey, you're welcome here.
