What Clients Are Saying

Vancouver Therapy FAQ

Therapy is highly effective for managing and reducing anxiety. Evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Therapy have shown to help individuals understand and manage anxious thoughts, develop coping strategies, and achieve lasting emotional balance. Many clients experience significant improvement within a few months of consistent therapy.

Reality: Therapy supports people dealing with a wide range of challenges, not just severe mental health issues. Many seek counselling for stress, relationship concerns, life transitions, grief, and personal growth. You don’t need a diagnosis to benefit from professional support.

The most effective types of therapy for couples include the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Both approaches focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and strengthening emotional connection. The right method depends on your specific relationship needs, and a skilled couples therapist can tailor the approach for the best outcomes.

Reality: Therapy is a process that takes time, commitment, and active participation. While some individuals notice early relief, meaningful and lasting change typically unfolds over multiple sessions as trust builds and skills are developed.

Yes. Online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions for many people. It offers convenience, flexibility, and privacy, while still providing a safe, supportive environment. Many Vancouver therapists offer secure virtual platforms, allowing clients to access professional care from the comfort of their home.

Reality: Seeking therapy is a sign of strength and self-awareness. It demonstrates a commitment to personal growth, emotional health, and improving life circumstances. Courageously addressing difficult emotions or patterns takes resilience, not weakness.

Trauma therapy varies depending on the severity and complexity of the trauma. Some individuals may experience relief after a few months, while others benefit from longer-term support. Common modalities like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) or Trauma-Focused CBT typically require 12–24 sessions but are always tailored to each person’s pace and needs.

Reality: Many therapists in Vancouver offer sliding scale rates, insurance billing, or community-funded programs. Therapy is often more accessible than people assume, with options to fit different budgets.

Yes. Many Vancouver therapists provide sliding scale rates to make counselling more accessible. These rates are often based on income or financial need. It’s always a good idea to ask your therapist or clinic directly about available options.

Reality: Modern therapy is collaborative and interactive. Skilled therapists provide feedback, teach practical tools, and guide clients toward meaningful insights and solutions. It’s an active process designed to empower clients.
