Marcus Chan Counselling

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Hi there! 

I’m Marcus (he/him), a gay neurodivergent second-generation Chinese settler and Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC).  My commitment to this work emerged from seeing how spiritual and cultural expectations can collide with queerness, and how systems of power shape our sense of self. In my counselling work, I’ve provided support to individuals who survived traumatic experiences, and offered care to queer, neurodiverse and BIPOC peoples seeking a place to feel seen and understood. 

I work foundationally from a Person-Centered approach while drawing from frameworks such as Internal Family Systems (Parts Work), Somatic Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. I am also a Brainspotting practitioner, and we can utilize Brainspotting in the therapeutic space to help gently process "sticky" feelings and emotions while anchoring focus on your therapeutic goals.

My counselling approach is not only trauma-informed and anti-oppressive, but also warm, and playful - welcoming humor and creativity into the space while working alongside you to build a space that can also hold the depth of healing that arises.

If you feel like we would be a good fit, please feel free to book an initial consultation! I am excited to meet you.
