Is Counselling Right for You?
We live in a fast-paced society and it has become more and more challenging to keep up with the demands of day to day living. We frequently deal with high levels of stress and burnout that impact our emotional, mental, physical and spiritual well-being. Many common physical ailments such as insomnia, headaches, digestive issues, impaired immune system and more can be attributed to stress.
Irritability, anxiety, depression, inability to manage emotions, feelings of numbness or overwhelm can often be connected to unresolved trauma and/or grief, chronic stress, and other overwhelming life transitions. Our team of qualified counsellors can help.
Some of the signs that online counselling or grief therapy would be a good fit for you include:
-
Feelings of anxiousness that are interfering with your ability to do day-to-day tasks. If you are struggling to sleep at night, or you are experiencing ruminating thoughts and excessive worry, you may want to consider anxiety counselling.
Anxiety counselling will help you understand triggers, develop coping mechanisms and help you manage anxiety. Learn more about anxiety counselling.
-
If you are in a relationship and struggling to communicate effectively, or your relationship has become unfulfilling, working with a couples therapist individually and/or together in couples counselling can help your relationship get back on track.
-
If you are having feelings of hopelessness, sadness, irritability, thoughts of suicide, decreased energy, trouble coping, isolating yourself from the people you love, or no longer finding pleasure in the activities you used to enjoy - you may benefit from gaining extra support in a therapeutic relationship with a counsellor.

If you have lost a loved one, pet or you are experiencing a life change that is creating a void in your life, you may want to consider grief counselling.
Grief counselling will help you navigate and process the complex emotions you may be experiencing. Learn how grief counselling can help.

We all face difficult changes at different times in our lives - a big move, breakups or divorce, the loss of a job, becoming an empty nester, friendship shifts or breakups, the loss of a loved one, change in family structure.
When these transitions arise, it can be challenging to find your place in the world and move forward. Working with a grief counsellor can help you process lingering feelings of grief, and help you identify who you’re becoming in the midst of change. Get support with life transitions counselling.
-
If you are struggling with any type of addiction, including, substance abuse, eating disorder, gambling, sex addiction, or social media addiction - this could be a sign you are trying to cope with unresolved issues or avoiding feelings in an unhelpful way.
It may benefit you to work with one of our addiction counsellors to identify new ways of coping and become curious about what is going on under the surface. Meet our Vancouver counsellors who can help.
-
Traumatic event(s) that have created a sense of overwhelm or feeling of before/after, can rearrange the way we view the world, our sense of self, and cause long lasting impacts such as anxiety, depression, irritability, anger, feelings of numbness, and impact relationships.
Working with a trauma informed or trauma trained counsellor can help you come to terms with the impacts of your experience and help you restore your aliveness. Start the healing journey with trauma counselling.
-
Working with a counsellor can help provide greater insight and awareness. Building on your existing strengths and learning new healthy ways to cope, communicate and navigate the world can benefit every area of your life.
Having a non-bias professional reflect back, identify patterns and gently challenge you to reach your goals can set a foundation for you to thrive. Learn more about self-development counselling.

Issues Treated by Our Grief Therapists
Our virtual therapists explore and treat a range of issues including: anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, grief and loss, overwhelm, chronic stress, gender identity, behavioural issues, relationship conflicts, suicidality, spirituality, addiction, life transitions and personal development.
Each counsellor at Adventuring Loss has their own unique style and specialty. We invite you to learn more about our Vancouver therapists and book a complimentary 15-minute consultation to find the right fit for you!
Your relationship with your therapist differs from your relationship with a friend or an acquaintance. Unlike with a friend, you don’t have to give back or worry about how unloading your feelings on them might make them feel. That’s what our Vancouver counselling team is here for!
Let your therapist be a safety net that can catch you when you stumble.
“Finding words where words were absent before and, as a result, being able to share your deepest pain and deepest feelings with another human being. This is one of the most profound experiences we can have.”
— Bessel Van Der Kolk
Online Counselling
Virtual therapy is a very useful resource that in recent years has been added to the psychological intervention services. Online therapy offers some benefits over traditional face-to-face treatment.
Some advantages of online counselling include:
-
You can see a virtual therapist from the comfort of home, without having to travel to an office, or pay for parking. Working with a therapist online can be a huge time saver. Just make sure you have access to a nice, quiet room that offers you privacy, a stable internet connection and you’re good to go!
-
Seeing your counsellor online can give you access to the comforts you find in your own space. Perhaps a pet, your own pillows or blankets. You can spend time in reflection immediately after your session with a journal or music if you choose, instead of hurrying back to a busy outside world.
-
You’re not limited to seeing therapists who live in the same city as you, which means you can choose from a wide range of licensed therapists with different areas of expertise including trauma, grief, loss, cross-cultural issues, addiction, or work life.
-
Our Vancouver counsellors are able to share their computer screen to offer up visuals, resources and educational tools. As well as, a text box for sharing links and other materials.
-
Mobility is often an underrated issue when it comes to accessing care for mental health. Online sessions make therapy far more accessible for people who are disabled or housebound.
