Welcome
Counsellor, Vancouver, BC, Art Therapist, Anxiety, Depression, Highly Sensitive Person, Stress, Empaths, HSPs, First Responders
Thank you for visiting!
First I want you to know it takes a lot of courage to reach out for support. So I want to commend you on taking this first step.
My name is Heather Hassenbein and I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and a Professional Art Therapist located in downtown Vancouver, BC.
People seek counselling for a variety of reasons. Sometimes people come in for a quick check-in, others come in for a specific concern, while some are not entirely sure except they know something does not feel right. The bottom line is you do not have to have a major problem or exact reason to meet with a counsellor. A person wanting to make changes or figure things out is reason enough to come in and talk.
I work with teens, adults, and older adults who tend to be empaths and highly sensitive people (HSPs) who experience anxiety, depression, stress, and overwhelming emotions.
I am an approved provider with ICBC, First Nations Health Authority (FNHA), Arete, and Optima Health.
I look forward to working with you. And I am here whenever you are ready to get started.
