Counselling in East Vancouver, BC. Find the Right Therapist.

Hi folks, My name is Galina (they/them) and I practice in the city of Vancouver. I am an EMDR clinician, providing queer-centered, ADHD-adapted psychotherapy for traumatic stress management. I work with workplace trauma, compassion fatigue, and building resiliency.

Somatic. Relational. Neurobiological. I help my clients connect with their body, vitality, creative autonomy and relational wisdom on their journey to an ever more full and vibrant life.

I am a Registered Psychologist (R.Psych.) and work with adults across BC who are struggling with issues related to anxiety, worry/rumination, depression, anger, and stress. My goal is to help clients develop skills that will improve the quality of their lives.

In therapy, I am warm, respectful, empathic, kind and direct. Many clients have told me that they feel safer with me than with any other therapist they have been to.  I feel great admiration and respect for the people I work with and have learned so much from them.

Welcome! My approach to counselling clients is anchored in the fact I want all people to feel safe getting vulnerable, and to have freedom navigating complex & emotional situations, in a non- judgmental and caring space. Finding strength and resilience along the way.

My mission is to ensure that my clients are taken care of in a professional setting, I practise the highest ethical standards and protects the dignity and privacy of each client. Clients counselling needs are met by utilising various therapeutic approaches.

If you're having a difficult time, I am passionate about helping you cope better and feel happier! Working together we become a team, of sorts, to determine a deeper understanding of your situation and create helpful solutions

I believe that everyone is worthy and deserving of inner happiness and loving relationships. I feel privileged to have facilitated many individuals, couples and families in overcoming negativity thoughts and behaviors, in a safe, compassionate and accepting atmosphere.

I am a Registered Psychologist who provides treatment for adults with depression, anxiety, worry, stress, and anger issues. I understand that it can be challenging to reach out for help, so I try to make the process as comfortable, straightforward, and simple as I can.
