If you find yourself saying yes when you want to say no, it can be hard to understand afterward why it happened. In individual counselling, we can start with a recent conversation. What did you want to say? What did you fear might happen if you said it? We can slow down the moment you went quiet, notice the feelings behind it and practise a response that feels right to you.

I work with adults who want help with anxiety, stress, past experiences that still affect them, or patterns that keep showing up in relationships. Some people come because they can explain a pattern clearly but still feel caught in it. We might work with emotion as it happens in the session, or rehearse a difficult conversation together. We’ll decide what to try based on your goals and what feels manageable.

I’m Alistair Gordon, a Registered Clinical Counsellor and founder of Wellspring Counselling & Psychotherapy Inc. I’ve taught counselling psychology as an adjunct professor at UBC. My training includes Emotion-Focused Therapy, EMDR and Therapeutic Enactment, and I developed CorMorphosis™ Psychotherapy. I offer individual sessions by video across BC. A free 15-minute consultation is a chance to tell me what you’re looking for, ask questions and decide whether you’d like to work together.
