Member stories

Heard in our quiet rooms

My evenings finally feel like mine again.

The evening ritual stuck: phone away at nine, a warm bath, ten minutes of breathing. For the first time in years, I sleep through the night.

Thank you Miguel for being part of my journey

I am deeply grateful to Miguel for his guidance, encouragement and counselling he provided throughout my journey.

When I started from scratch, I faced many challenges and uncertainties about my future career path. Through his support, mentorship and in my potential, I gained the confidence to pursue my goals and keep moving forward even when things were difficult.

The most grounding hour of my week.

I arrived running on four hours of sleep. Lena’s breath sessions gave me a reset I can carry into even the busiest days at work.

Now our hardest talks happen over Sunday tea, calmly and kindly.

Six sessions with Daniel taught us to slow down and really hear each other. We still use his pause-and-repeat exercise every week.

How do I know therapy is right for me?

If you’re asking the question, it probably is. Therapy isn’t just for crisis—it’s for anyone who wants clarity, growth, or relief. If something feels heavy, stuck, or off, that’s reason enough.

Do you accept insurance?

We’ll send you a receipt with everything your provider needs to reimburse you.

Where do you offer counselling?

We serve Coquitlam and surrounding areas. Online counselling sessions are also available.

What happens in my first session?

It’s a calm, unhurried conversation about what brought you here and what you’d like to feel. No pressure, no forms to rush through.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

Life happens. I just ask for 24 hours notice so I can offer time to another client. If you need to cancel due to an emergency we can work it out.

Is everything I share confidential?

Yes. What you share stays between us, with rare exceptions: if there’s an immediate risk of harm to yourself or others, or if there’s suspected abuse of a child or vulnerable adult. Otherwise, your sessions are entirely private.
