Bakas Counselling offers individual therapy, group therapy and psychoeducational workshops in New Westminster, Burnaby, Vancouver ares and online... The road towards becoming a counsellor has been anything but linear; here's my story, in brief, on how I arrived to be doing what I love. In the late 90's my younger self wanted to be a therapist; however, life had other plans for me (!) and I dropped out of college. After spending several workaholic years in advertising, I burnt out, and realized that the corporate world had distanced me from having deeper authentic connections with people; so, for my own good I had to recreate the way I was living, personally and professionally. This led me to train in different holistic healing modalities, which, in retrospect, was also a quest for my own personal healing. I started my holistic healing practice in North Vancouver, BC in 2005, and I enjoyed it for over a decade.
