Rebecca Chan

Rebecca’s approach is trauma-informed and attachment-focused, drawing on relational, experiential, and somatic-based work. She pays close attention to how stress and trauma show up in the brain, the body, and the psyche, but she also sees a lot of suffering coming from something simpler: the struggle to make choices that actually feel like yours, choices that are authentic, meaningful, and self-directed. Working from that lens, she helps clients get clarity on what’s holding them back, build real strategies for handling hard feelings, and, just as importantly, reconnect with what brings them peace and meaning.

She works with people facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, life transitions, grief and loss, relationship struggles, existential questions, self-worth, and feelings of guilt and shame. She has a particular passion for helping women and men embrace their vulnerability and inner strength, so they can live more authentically instead of shrinking to fit societal expectations or harsh self-judgment.

For Rebecca, healing happens in relationship. She believes real change comes from feeling safe enough to be honest about your experience with another person, which is why she treats the therapeutic relationship itself as one of the most powerful tools in the room. Her goal is simple: create a space where you feel fully welcomed, so you can start connecting with who you really are and find more freedom in how you live.

Rebecca offers children’s counselling and individual counselling, drawing on EMDR and AEDP alongside mindfulness and CBT depending on each client’s needs.

Rebecca sees clients in person at our East Burnaby, Boss Business Centre location, as well as through virtual care for clients anywhere in BC.
