We serve many types of clients. It can be families struggling with ongoing conflict, communication breakdowns, or emotional distance; parents feeling overwhelmed by parenting challenges, including blended family adjustments and behavioral issues with children or teens. Plus, we serve families navigating major life transitions, such as divorce, grief, or loss, and seeking guidance to maintain harmony and connection; and families looking to strengthen bonds and foster healthier, more supportive relationships. Lastly, we serve individuals within the family unit who feel unheard, misunderstood, or disconnected and want to restore family unity.

What Clients Are Saying

Single best decision I have ever made

Erica at Counsel Me Vancouver has completely transformed my life in a way that nothing else has — it was the single best decision I have ever made. Her compassionate, professional, peaceful demeanor created such a safe place right from the very first moment I met her. I learned how to turn off the constant, negative chatter in my brain that told me I wasn’t good enough. I gained the ability to deal with trauma that had bothered me for decades. I acquired tools to help with an overwhelming feeling of loss. I live a calmer, peaceful, more genuine life full of friends, love, happiness, and self-assurance. Because of Counsel Me Vancouver, I feel like I have the power, confidence, and control to do whatever I want when it comes to food, exercise, grief, anxiety, relationships, my job, and my future.

We can not recommend her enough

After researching various therapists for couple’s counselling, a friend recommended Erica to us. She saw us through our difficult times with kindness, compassion and professionalism. With Erica’s help, our communication is stronger, our trust has grown and our commitment has never been tighter. Erica’s approach is very kind, calm and her caring manner makes her easy to talk with. We can not recommend her enough.

Incredibly worthwhile investment I would make again in a heartbeat.

I’ve recommended many others to Erica and they all rave about how amazing the experience is, so I can say with confidence that whatever issue you’re facing Counsel Me Vancouver can make it easier and more manageable. I can’t believe that I spent so much of my life in a fog when I could have been living the life I am now because therapy seemed ‘scary/embarrassing’ and ‘I don’t need that’ and ‘it’s expensive’. If I could have done one thing differently in my life it would have been to contact Counsel Me Vancouver earlier because it is none of those things. It is calm, safe, awesomely helpful, and in comparison to the benefits received, an incredibly worthwhile investment that I would make again in a heartbeat.

Would recommend her to anyone

I met with Erica in the Fall of 2014. At the time I was struggling with some relationship issues, and I needed to talk to someone in order to help guide and assist me through what was a difficult time. Erica was compassionate and understanding and I found it very easy to open up to her. Furthermore, talking through the problems I was experiencing enabled me to understand them better. It lifted a weight from my shoulders, and it provided me with hope and confidence that I could get through things.
Erica provided me with the tools necessary to move on in my life, and she ensured that I reached my goals. I would have no problem returning if other issues emerged, and I would recommend her to anyone who may be considering counselling

Overcome my past traumas and lead a more fulfilling life!

Since childhood, I’d been trying to push away thoughts about my childhood abuse and the negative emotions that I couldn’t seem to get rid of. I didn’t realize the vast impact my past experiences have had on my life growing up and on my current relationships. Through counselling, I was able to delve safely into my trauma by incorporating healthy coping strategies that Erica taught me. I felt supported and comfortable in my work with Erica as she was understanding and accepting of my vulnerabilities. Working through trauma wasn’t easy, it was actually very painful at times. However, I needed to go through my pain to get on the other side to gain peace and freedom in my life.
I should’ve gone to see a counsellor much sooner. Counsel Me Vancouver helped me overcome my past traumas and lead a more fulfilling life! Therapy completely changed my perspective. I’m so happy that I made the choice to get help.
