I have been working with a therapist at Well Beings for a few months now, and I look forward to our sessions; I'm not sure if that's odd to say! The therapist I work with, Brenda, is wonderful. Her approach is a match for the things I am working through and I appreciate her calm demeanour, non-judgmental approach, and her positive way of leading our sessions. She regularly checks in to make sure I feel like we are working toward my goals together, and I feel safe and secure in sharing with her. I really appreciate her and Well Beings Counselling for connecting us!

I know there are bigger problems in the world, but somehow—even in retirement—my life had become too busy. My calendar was overflowing with commitments that no longer aligned with what I truly wanted.

Working with Alex was a turning point. Through her thoughtful coaching, I was able to clarify my priorities, reconnect with what brings me joy, and gain the confidence to step away from some things.

Now, I’ve made space for the balanced life I actually want to live.

Alex is an absolute delight to work with. Her warm, grounding presence—and her gorgeous, restorative office—made every session feel like a retreat.

Don’t hesitate to reach out. She has a wealth of wisdom to share.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Susanne, for such a thoughtful and detailed review of your experience with Alexandra. It's wonderful to hear how therapy has helped you navigate this important transition in retirement. Moving from an overflowing calendar to a life that truly aligns with your values and brings you joy. We're delighted that Alex's warm, grounding presence and the environment of our Kelowna office made each session feel like a retreat. Thank you for sharing your journey and for encouraging others not to hesitate in reaching out. Life transitions at any stage deserve thoughtful support, and we're honoured that we could be part of helping you create the balanced, fulfilling life you wanted. Wishing you continued joy in this new chapter!

K o r r y is a lovely kind understanding therapist. She listened very carefully to everything I had to say. She validated my thoughts and opinions. It felt like a very safe and welcoming environment. However, what I was really hoping to take away from our discussion was some tools to give me something to work with or some recommendations to help me process this journey of loss and deep grief.

We have dabbled with numerous counsellors, and without hesitation Dina is our favourite. She met our needs as a couple.

If we weren’t moving provinces, we would see Dina to maintain the strength she has instilled in us.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your heartfelt review of your couples counselling experience with Dina at our Coquitlam clinic. We're truly grateful that you found the meaningful connection and relationship support you were seeking after trying several counsellors.

I can’t thank Well Beings Counselling in London enough for their incredible support during a difficult time.

Excellent services offered here. I’ve been visiting Anissa for a while and she’s done a very good job with me so far. She’s very good at handling things and very pleasant and professional to deal with. Highly recommended. Robin from the admin team is excellent as well, and very quick to assist in anyway she can with bookings and/or requests.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your positive experience, Dave! We are proud to hear our team's efforts have been successful.
Everything moved very quickly, from the time of inquiry to the professional & detailed forms to answer preliminary questions. I was able to reach out, type some background info, and be in contact with a (for lack of a better word) receptionist/ phone consultant, within two days, and by the middle of the next week had my first appointment in-person. Not to mention my first appointment with Sarah was quite enjoyable. I felt safe, understood and not dismissed like I had in previous therapy experiences through different service providers. Thanks! I look forward to & hope for a continual experience as such.
Response from the owner:Hi Kate, thank you for this kind review! We are so thrilled to read you've had a positive experience. We aim to provide this level of care to all our clients.
Dina and her approach to therapy are wonderful! She is compassionate, intuitive, and collaborative. She brings a beautiful balance of head and heart. The insights I have gained from my work with Dina have made a positive impact on my life - on myself and my relationships. In addition to these deep, meaningful, serious insights - I also appreciate that Dina provides room for laughter! I can’t say enough positive things about Dina and my work with her. If I could give her an 11 out of 10 star rating - I would.
Response from the owner:Hi Jennifer! We are thrilled to hear that counselling has had such a positive impact on your life. Thank you for sharing your experience. We hope it inspires others to seek insight and make positive change.

I was visiting Vancouver for a friends wedding, and suddenly had a anxiety attack from all of the planning and shenanigans. I was the photographer and it was really stressful time. My best friend suggested this place, and it was a lifesaver. Pareen is unlike other counselors, she actually listened to me and made me feel safe and valued.
Response from the owner:Hi S - we thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Pareen enjoyed working with you and helping alleviate the anxiety that you were feeling.
Pareen has helped me get through a really tough period in my life. My lack of motivation and negative emotions were impacting every part of my life. With her support, I have been able to overcome the worst. I am so grateful to be able to continue our sessions as I continue to push through. Pareen is extremely patient and communicates effectively. Can not recommend well beings enough!
Response from the owner:It has been an amazing adventure getting to know you and working with you. Thank you for your feedback.
Pareen is great to work with! She really wants to help you with the things you want to work on. She really makes you feel like you're in it as a team.
Response from the owner:Appreciate the review!
I am lucky to have found Pareen! She is very patient and is clear when she explains. She is also very knowledgeable with all different cultures and understanding them all.
Response from the owner:Thanks Angel! I really enjoy working with you.
Pareen is an excellent listener and very understanding. She made me comfortable in meeting with her even though I had never been to a counsellor before. Highly recommended.
Response from the owner:I appreciate the review Lincoln!
I was sceptical about talking to someone for a long time but eventually decided to meet with Pareen. She really changed my perspective and I can’t recommend the Well Beings environment enough. Thank you!
Response from the owner:It’s been a pleasure working with you Colin! Thank you.
I’ve been getting some life coaching and counselling at well being for about 8 months. It’s changed my life. I am really happy I found this place. It’s helped me be better mentally and now I can focus on my children. Thank you!
Response from the owner:Thanks Shirin for the review! You're most welcome.
I've been seeing Pareen at her counselling office in Coquitlam. I came in with with an issue that i have been dealing with for about two years and I can not be more thankful on how far I've come due to the hard work, knowledge and the care Pareen provides
Response from the owner:Thanks Colin! It's been a pleasure working with you.

Proven Approaches for Anxiety Therapy We Trust in

Well Beings Counselling believes in using scientifically proven approaches to treat anxiety effectively and safely. Our therapy methods are grounded in evidence-based practices like cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and biofeedback to help identify the patterns behind anxiety and guide the brain to respond with emotional balance and inner stability.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps individuals reduce anxiety by identifying unhelpful thought patterns and replacing them with more realistic ones. 

Well Beings Counselling uses CBT for anxiety because it empowers individuals to take control of their emotional responses through focused cognitive restructuring. Our therapists examine how negative thought patterns influence behaviour and guide clients toward behavioural change that supports long-term stability. Anxiety management strategies are built step-by-step in CBT and include tools like journaling, emotion tracking, and daily practices to create clear, measurable progress.

Exposure Therapy

Exposure therapy is a psychological treatment that helps individuals gradually confront and manage anxiety by facing feared situations in a controlled and systematic way.

We trust in Exposure Therapy for its proven effectiveness in reducing anxiety through gradual and controlled exposure. We incorporate exposure therapy to provide targeted anxiety disorder therapy, which includes fear reduction techniques to ensure a steady recovery. We also offer additional support for phobia treatment and PTSD treatment, enabling individuals to tackle their specific fears with confidence through gradual exposure.

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a therapeutic approach that combines mindfulness practices with meditation for anxiety and stress reduction, focusing on present-moment awareness.

Well Beings Counselling trusts in MBSR for its holistic approach to anxiety management, using mindfulness practices and meditation for anxiety to reduce stress. Our stress reduction program incorporates mindfulness techniques, promoting emotional regulation and well-being. We guide individuals through stress management techniques to help them gain control over their reactions, improving their ability to manage anxiety and stress long-term.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychological approach that helps individuals manage anxiety by encouraging mindfulness, acceptance of emotions, and commitment to values-driven actions.

We trust ACT for its focus on psychological flexibility and mindfulness, which effectively treats anxiety. Our registered therapists use ACT to help clients reduce cognitive fusion, allowing them to detach from unhelpful thoughts and focus on what truly matters. We emphasize the clarification of values and commitment, guiding individuals to live in accordance with their core values while managing anxiety with greater resilience.

Relaxation Techniques

Relaxation techniques are a collection of methods, such as deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation, designed to reduce anxiety through physical and mental relaxation.

Well Beings Counselling trusts in relaxation techniques to help individuals manage anxiety by promoting mental clarity and physical relaxation. We offer guided imagery and mindfulness meditation as part of our approach, allowing clients to focus on calming their minds and reducing stress. Our stress relief programs also incorporate deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), empowering individuals to alleviate anxiety and regain a sense of control.

Biofeedback

Biofeedback is a therapeutic approach that uses real-time data on physiological functions to help individuals control bodily responses associated with anxiety.

We trust biofeedback to treat anxiety by enabling individuals to gain awareness and control over their physiological responses. We offer neurofeedback and heart rate variability (HRV) training to enhance relaxation and reduce stress. Our use of techniques like electromyography (EMG) and skin temperature biofeedback empowers clients to regulate their body’s reactions and manage anxiety more effectively.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy is an approach that explores the unconscious mind and past experiences to uncover the root causes of anxiety and emotional struggles.

Well Beings Counselling trusts psychodynamic therapy to treat anxiety by helping individuals uncover and understand how unresolved childhood trauma and unconscious conflicts influence their current emotional state. Our therapists utilize free association to explore these hidden thoughts and feelings, allowing clients to gain insight into their anxiety. We focus on recognizing defence mechanisms, which help individuals work through deeply rooted issues and resolve them over time.

Lifestyle Changes

Lifestyle changes focus on adopting healthier habits and routines, such as regular exercise, a balanced diet, and effective stress management, to alleviate anxiety and enhance overall well-being.

Well Beings Counselling trusts lifestyle changes as a foundational approach to treating anxiety by encouraging mindful living, regular exercise for anxiety, and stress management strategies. We guide clients to improve sleep hygiene and maintain a balanced diet, as these factors significantly impact emotional health. Our programs also emphasize time management techniques to help individuals reduce stress and regain control over their daily lives.
