I truly believe that each individual is the expert on their life and holds the potential to heal through their inner strength and wisdom to improve the quality of their life. With validation, compassion, and trust in the therapeutic relationship, I can help individuals heal from past trauma and support them in navigating through emotional complexities and life transitions, enhancing their quality of life and well-being.
My goal in counselling is to help you to find what's missing in your life. Perhaps it is issues with identity, or ongoing conflicts in relationships, or a feeling of "stuckness." Mutual respect and trust are vital components to our work together. I offer a unique setting where we can work through the topics you bring in a non-judgmental way.
I believe that a person has the answers and wisdom within them to solve their issues. I will work collaborativley with you to help you get the life you want. Working together we will get to your answers and then I will support you in achieving your goals. I provide a safe & trusting environment.

As an existential-humanistic therapist, Jue helps her clients access their in-depth personal quests regarding the meanings of human conditions and existence.
Life can be really challenging at times and while we love our family and friends, they tend to give advice rather than practical tools for navigating those challenges. Sometimes they even get upset when we don't do what they tell us to! Therapy is different -- you get an unbiased listener who will teach those practical skills and offer realistic suggestions, rather than advice. Best of all, you will feel supported regardless of your decision. Whether you just want someone to bounce ideas off of, to finally start working on those unprocessed traumatic memories that we can't just "get over", or anything in between, I offer a safe place to work through your unique situation on your timeline. You will never feel pressured to talk about something that you aren't ready to, but you will feel supported enough to do so. I'm looking forward to meeting with you!
Frances Brown, M.Ed., RPC, MTC
Counsellor/Therapist
North Vancouver, BC (Offers Online Therapy)
In person & Online Therapy for Couples and Individuals:
Hello! I'm Fran Brown. I am a skilled, professional therapist, specializing in helping couples and individuals move through blocks in their relationships and lives. Life can deliver experiences that can feel overwhelming. No matter how hard we try, we may not know how to find our way through the impact and get back on track. You can get effective counselling help!
As an individual, are you struggling to overcome depression, anxiety or loss or caught in self-defeating behaviour patterns?
As a couple, do you get stuck in communication patterns that create escalating arguments instead of understanding and acceptance? Are you longing to renew your connection and get close again?
My approach combines a number of evidence-based modalities, including Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, (EFT), Family Systems Therapy, Gestalt, Rogerian, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, (CBT), Imago, Re-evaluation Counselling and others.
As an experienced counsellor, I want to provide you with the safe, compassionate and non-judgmental environment you need to begin to explore and share what is most important to you. With support, you will be able to take steps to create change. I have helped hundreds of couples and individuals resolve what troubles them and create live and relationships they want to come home to. I would love to meet and work with you too!
I help you get to the root of your problems, train your brain to be more resilient, and overwrite unwanted default programming so you can make lasting change. 95% of your thoughts and behaviours are processed in your unconscious mind, which is why, even though you might want something better for yourself, you find yourself stuck. I use evidence-based techniques like hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and neurofeedback to help you access your unconscious mind, and reprogram unwanted thoughts and behaviour patterns for good.
