Trauma can affect people in many different ways. Some people experience intrusive memories, hypervigilance, anxiety or strong emotional reactions. Others may notice emotional numbness, shame, relationship difficulties, problems with trust or a persistent sense of being unsafe.
A trauma counsellor can help you explore how difficult or overwhelming experiences may be affecting your present-day emotions, relationships, thoughts and responses. Trauma-informed counselling does not assume that every person experiences trauma in the same way, and therapy should move at a pace that considers your needs, boundaries and readiness.
Our approach is rooted in empathy and professionalism. Each clinical counsellor in Coquitlam and across BC on our team brings a wealth of experience, advanced training, and a deep commitment to helping clients heal, grow, and reconnect with their authentic selves. We believe in building a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship where transformation can truly take place.
Choosing a trauma counsellor involves more than comparing treatment techniques. Consider the counsellor’s professional credentials, experience working with trauma, therapeutic approach and how comfortable you feel communicating with them.
You may want to ask how they work with clients who are not ready to discuss difficult experiences in detail, how they pace trauma therapy and which approaches they use for concerns such as PTSD or C-PTSD.
A strong therapeutic relationship should allow space for questions, boundaries, collaboration and honest conversations about what is or is not helping.
We understand that trauma doesn’t always look the same. That’s why we tailor our therapeutic approach to meet your unique needs, whether you’re dealing with childhood wounds, relational trauma, or a single distressing event. Using modalities like EMDR, Somatic Experiencing (SE), Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT), and other person-centered therapies, we walk alongside you as you move from survival to healing.
At Linanna Therapy, we provide compassionate, professional counselling that is tailored to each client’s needs, experience and goals. Our team includes registered clinical counsellors who use trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches to support clients in a respectful and collaborative way.
Whether you are looking for support with trauma, PTSD, C-PTSD, anxiety, grief, emotional regulation, difficult life experiences or growth after trauma, our goal is to help you find a counsellor and therapeutic approach that feels right for you.
You do not need to know exactly what type of trauma therapy you need before reaching out. Reviewing a counsellor’s experience, areas of practice and therapeutic approach can help you decide who may feel like the right fit.

A Registered Clinical Counsellor, or RCC, is a counselling professional who has met the education, clinical training, and professional standards required for registration with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors. At Linanna Therapy, RCC registration applies to counsellors who hold that designation.
The right fit depends on your goals, concerns, preferred therapeutic approach, and how comfortable you feel with the counsellor. Reviewing each counsellor’s areas of focus, experience, and approach can help. A consultation can also give you a better sense of whether the therapist feels like a good fit.

In most cases, you can contact a clinical counsellor directly without a physician’s referral. If you plan to use extended health benefits, it is a good idea to check your insurance plan to confirm whether a referral is required for reimbursement.
Many extended health plans include coverage for Registered Clinical Counsellors, but coverage varies by provider and plan. Clients should confirm their specific benefits, eligibility, and reimbursement requirements directly with their insurer.
You can review the counsellors’ profiles to learn more about their areas of practice and approach, then book a consultation or appointment with the therapist who feels like the best fit for your needs.
