Beyond the Pines Therapy

Beyond the Pines Therapy Depth Therapy for lasting change! Welcome! I am a psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, and owner of Beyond the Pines Therapy based in Vancouver, BC.

I hold a B.F.A. in Theatre from U.B.C. and an M.A. in Counselling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology. I have completed clinical internships through Dr. Peter Centre and Nightingale Counselling & Research, and am committed to ongoing education and clinical supervision. My approach is non-directive, collaborative, and highly exploratory. I engage clients with sincere curiosi

ty and an underlying belief in the resilience of the human spirit. I utilize psychodynamic, family systems, and attachment-focused approaches to provide in-person and online services for adults, teenagers, and couples. I offer trauma-informed treatment that extends beyond temporary symptom relief and helps you move towards a greater experience of wholeness. Having grown up in northern towns all over Western Canada and moving 30 times by the age of 30, I am accustomed to building relationships with new people. I have enjoyed exposure to wildly different communities and have a background in various fields including industrial work, bartending, theatre/film, and education. Outside of the therapy office you may find me at the cinema, exploring the coastline with my family, enjoying a very loud concert, rehearsing a new play, or immersing myself in a Steinbeck novel.

For Michael Eigen, dream work is the psyche's ongoing attempt to digest experience, especially pain and trauma, by shaping it into images, affects, and symbolic forms that can be felt, contained, and transformed.
