Vancouver based CounsellingBC recognizes that consumers of counselling and psychological services are typically looking for help for a variety of issues and symptoms. With its Counselling Professional Directory of more than 250 psychologists, counsellors, and other professionals therapists, there is help for almost any type of concern. Anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, excessive anger and addictions are just some of the issues that bring individuals and couples to CounsellingBC's Counselling Professional Directory. Some of these symptoms begin after trauma or a series of traumas. Some result from abusive relationships patterns. Many have their roots in childhood. Since November of 1999, CounsellingBC.com, a 100% Canadian website based in Vancouver, has been committed to providing individuals, couples, and families in BC with the counselling assistance they need via up-to-date information, about resources that promote healing and recovery.
