I help people who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or lost in their own life. Maybe you’re tired of holding it all together, reacting in ways you don’t like, or putting everyone else first and losing yourself in the process. I also support couples stuck in the same fight, feeling more like roommates, or scared to be honest.

All therapists on Theralist are licensed professionals registered with BC's regulatory colleges.

Can I find a therapist near SFU's Burnaby Mountain campus?

Whether you're a student managing academic stress, a faculty member, or a local resident, Theralist lets you search specifically for therapists serving the Burnaby Mountain and UniverCity neighbourhoods. Many therapists in this area are accustomed to working with university-age clients and academic-related stressors.

The credential abbreviation appears on each therapist's Theralist profile so you can verify their qualifications at a glance.

Can I find family or couples therapy in Burnaby?

Burnaby's mix of young families, multi-generational households, and dual-income couples means there's particular demand for therapy that addresses family dynamics, parenting challenges, and relationship communication. Filter Theralist's Burnaby directory by family or couples therapy to find a therapist whose approach fits your situation.

How much does therapy cost in Burnaby?
