Hello and welcome!

I believe that therapy should feel human, like a conversation that invites curiosity, laughter, insight, and sometimes even surprise. While therapy is a place to learn more about your inner world and experiment with strategies, it also tends to come with a lot of unlearning and re-writing. People often come in feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like they’re not doing enough for themself or others. My role is to provide a soft landing where you can both rest and rise in your own way — to be with you while you remember and return to yourself. With compassion and slowness, we honour the wisdom you already hold and start to notice new options, new directions, and sometimes even new stories.

My approach is gentle, non-directive, and rooted in the belief that you are the expert in your own life and know best about what you need to heal. I work from a humanistic, strengths-based, and anti-oppressive lens. That means we’ll explore what’s hard, but we’ll also recognize the systems around you, the resistance already alive in you, and the parts of you that have been doing the best they can.

Whether we’re working through anxiety, grief, anger, or uncertainty, my focus is always on presence. On reconnecting with what’s true for you in the here and now. I work with individuals navigating life transitions, women exploring identity shifts, folks living with physical health challenges, and couples in reshaping their connection and reimagining how they communicate and relate.

Therapy with me often includes mindfulness, parts work, somatic practices, and a willingness to look not just at what’s happening, but at the wider context it lives within. I draw inspiration from social justice-oriented thinkers and am guided by the belief that healing happens in connection, with each other and with ourselves.

You might leave a session feeling lighter, more grounded, or simply more yourself. And while therapy can be serious work, it can also be playful, alive, and even a little bit fun.

If you’re curious, I’d love to meet you.

Hello, I’m Nicole (she/her), and I specialize in supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, or challenges during the perinatal and postpartum periods. I work with you to explore past experiences, current coping mechanisms, and thought patterns to help you understand their origins and find pathways to peace. My goal is to alleviate distress and feelings of guilt or shame, allowing you to reconnect deeply with yourself and your loved ones. My approach is centered around empowering clients and acknowledging the unique aspects of each person’s journey. I utilize methods from Internal Family Systems, Adlerian psychology, and mindful self-compassion to tailor a therapeutic experience that fits you.

I’ve had the honor of working with teens (aged 13+) and adults facing various life challenges and am eager to accompany you on your path to discovery and healing.

If you’re seeking support specifically for perinatal or postpartum issues, here’s some information for you. Pregnancy and new parenthood are often portrayed as purely joyous times, but many people experience significant fear, stress, and loss during these periods. Although it’s common to have mixed emotions, society often imposes guilt for any feelings that aren’t positive. I’m here to validate and support all your emotions during these times, helping to reduce shame and isolation. Counseling during pregnancy and the postpartum period benefits not just the individual, but also the child, partner, and the family as a whole. If you’re pregnant or have recently given birth and are struggling with anxiety, detachment, depression, or a sense of helplessness, please reach out.

Postpartum blues affect 50% to 75% of birth parents, and fluctuating emotions are perfectly normal. However, postpartum depression and anxiety can hinder daily functioning and bonding with your baby. Together, we can connect you with additional support, manage symptoms, and guide you toward recovery. It’s never too late to seek help.

Pregnancy loss is an incredibly difficult experience that can feel isolating. Often, people don’t know what to say, which can leave you feeling abandoned or further hurt. Grieving this loss is profoundly personal, influenced by your background, beliefs, and support systems. Using a trauma-informed, person-centered approach, I offer a safe space for you to process your grief and work towards navigating life post-loss

I support those who are overwhelmed by work stress, experience low self-esteem, or are struggling with interpersonal relationships, and help them reconnect with themselves and build a foundation for a healthier relationship with self and with others. Together, we’ll explore what’s challenging you and develop tools to feel more grounded, confident, and connected. I aim to build trusting relationships with my clients, to embrace humour and to build on strengths, using cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, and solution-focused therapy to help them meet their goals. I also like to bring in Alderian psychodynamic approaches and attachment theory when discussing family dynamics and relationships. The therapeutic relationship is so important within the therapeutic process, therefore I would love to meet and chat with you to see if we are a good fit!

Please note, Dr.Rochelle Harder will be transitioning to virtual only care effective June 26th.

Born on the Saskatchewan prairies, I spent a lot of time outside, immersed in the natural world. I had an innate curiosity for the way things worked - especially the human body in its infinite complexity. When my father was diagnosed with diabetes I intuitively felt there was so much more we could do before turning to medications. By improving his diet and making small changes to his lifestyle, he was able to regulate his blood sugar and avoid pharmaceuticals for many years, which shocked and impressed his doctors.

While I was already interested in nutrition and health, empowering my father to take charge of his own wellbeing changed my perspective on what wellness really means. When I learned of Naturopathic Medicine and how it seeks to address the root cause of illness and not just symptoms, something clicked. Every human body is striving for equilibrium: by treating the whole person and removing barriers to optimal function, I believe everyone can experience health in balance.

Connecting with patients and providing them with the resources to own their health journey is one of the most fulfilling aspects of my practice. I work with each patient individually to improve foundations of health starting with small but profound changes so that these shifts can amplify to benefit future health and prevent disease. I welcome all questions so you fully understand the inner workings of your body and treatment.

I consider myself a humble guide in your health journey and acknowledge that each patient arrives in my office at different states of readiness so I work with you to determine the best treatment plan for results.

I look forward to supporting you!

Dr. Rochelle is a member in good standing of the College of Naturopathic Physicians of British Columbia (CNPBC), British Columbia Naturopathic Doctors (BCND), and the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND)

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Approved Clinical Supervisor (RCC-ACS) with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors and I graduated with a Masters of Science degree with specialization in Clinical Psychology in 2008. I have collaboratively worked and have provided assessment and treatment services to individuals of all ages from early childhood to the later years as well as relationship counselling and family therapy. I specialize in the areas of trauma, relationship conflict, eating disorders, substance use, life transitions, grief, depression, anxiety disorders and parenting concerns.

My training, years of experience and advanced level training in various therapeutic techniques have prepared me to work with people in a way that honours peoples stories, experiences, struggles and strengths while supporting their therapeutic goals. I have advanced level training in Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Trauma Informed Practice, Attachment Based Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Response Based Therapy for victims of Violence to draw from in supporting you to make changes that support you in managing your struggles and developing a better sense of yourself and what works for you.

Through our consultations together we will explore what patterns you may be currently caught in that aren’t helpful and work ways to address struggles in your life to allow you to experience more freedom. I believe that people are separate from their problems and with the right resources and supports that people can overcome difficulties and experience more meaningful ways of being in relationships, work and life.

Therapy can be a safe space to challenge yourself to make changes that support your emotional and psychological health and contribute to your overall mental and physical health and wellbeing. I often ask people “Are you living your preferred life?” as so many of us seem to have been pulled in directions that move us away for our values and beliefs. In our work together we will explore and plan how to get back to connecting with yourself and your loved ones and living an enjoyable life that promotes your goals and most importantly sustains and empowers you! I look forward to engaging in this journey with you.

Hello! My name is Natalie Kumpula (she/her/hers), and I am currently completing my Master’s in Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. I completed a Bachelor’s of Science at Simon Fraser University, and I like to think that my background in science helps me consider physiological, social, and emotional factors equally in counselling. Alongside education, my experiences working at local crisis lines, outreach programs, and employment services have allowed me to deeply connect with many others from a variety of backgrounds facing challenging situations. My personal approach to counselling is very client-centered, with your needs and perspectives coming first. I have been trained in trauma-informed practices and crisis intervention, and I honour differences in culture or worldview that may be present between myself and my clients. I enjoy using techniques from solution-focused, cognitive-behavioural, and strengths-based therapies, while acknowledging that every person’s journey to health will be unique. I hope that you’ll consider me in your search for a counsellor and know that you are not starting this journey alone.

My name is Gillian (she/her), and I live on Coast Tsimshian Territory in Northern BC. I am a practicum student currently completing my Master’s of Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University. I hold a Bachelor of Education from the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC) and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Victoria. My background in teaching and the fine arts brings a creative and collaborative approach to my counselling practice, shaping my belief that healing can be fostered through both creativity and community.

I view counselling as a space where individuals can explore challenges and emotions they may not have previously had the support or safety to process. As a counsellor, I strive to offer a secure and accepting environment that nurtures connection and trust. I believe healing is inherently relational, and I value the power of the therapeutic relationship in supporting growth and transformation.

I am passionate about attachment theory, which shapes how I support clients in understanding their relational patterns and emotional needs. This lens can help us explore how past experiences may influence present relationships and work to cultivate greater emotional security and connection. I also ground my work in a person-centred approach that honours each client’s unique story, strengths, and capacity for growth.

My practice is rooted in a trauma-informed perspective, and I strive to bring my values of authenticity, curiosity, humility, and relationship into every therapeutic encounter.

Are anxiety or depression making it difficult to enjoy life or connect with the things that matter most to you? You might feel stuck, overwhelmed, or struggling to focus, even on the smallest tasks. Perhaps your relationships feel strained, or the weight of life’s challenges has left you disconnected from your sense of purpose. As a clinical counsellor with over 13 years of experience, I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety, lift depression, and find their way back to a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Using evidence-based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I tailor each session to meet your unique needs, providing practical tools to help you navigate overwhelming emotions, reduce stress, and improve your overall mental health. While anxiety and depression are my primary areas of focus, I also work with clients on related concerns, including low self-esteem, life transitions, OCD and relationship challenges.

My academic foundation includes a Doctorate in Psychology from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México and advanced CBT and evidence-based care training. Beyond the qualifications, I strive to create a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where you feel empowered to explore your thoughts and emotions. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process that respects your individuality and celebrates your growth.

If you’re ready to take the first step toward healing and rediscovering a sense of balance, I’m here to help. Let’s work together to overcome the challenges holding you back and create the life you deserve. Contact me today to schedule a consultation.
