Unfortunately we did not expect this therapist to be insensitive. He was suppose to see my spouse…read morewho suffers from several health issues. We are having a hard time. When I wrote in to him, I clearly explained that we wanted to see him in person, instead he booked us for zoom consultation. Seems he doesn't care about privacy issue or not a care about talking about a persons intimate issues over zoom. It took me more than a year to convince him to see someone for help, just when he agreed, this therapist had to screw it up. I have to start all over again. Perhaps it is a sign that he's not a peoples person. One star for ruining all my effort.

I feel that he's not judgmental and he makes me feel at ease during the appointment. He not only taught me many techniques that grounded me quickly, but he also gives you clear explanations and terminology so that you can learn more about what's going on. He's always attentive and he takes thorough notes. I'm very relieved that I found a therapist that works for me. He's definitely one of the best ones!

When I was having difficulty coping with stress, PTSD and dealing with some aspects of my past, I…read morehad Mr. Hearn recommended to me. His positive effect on my life is profound. I had read about EMDR in the 'Reader's Digest' and wanted to see if it could help me more fully overcome earlier trauma. Simon is proficient in using this technique. I literally would not have believed how wonderfully it works, if I had not experienced it myself. Things that used to plague me have been processed into memories that still exist, but do not carry emotional bruises. Even when I took a multiple-year hiatus from visiting Mr. Hearn, I continued to apply things he had taught me (ways of thinking, coping skills) into my daily life, to great benefit. Recently he has helped me process deep grief resulting from a personal loss. He is highly respectful of your personal choices, a good listener and always seems to find 'just the right question' to isolate the heart of a matter. He offers sessions in person (Vancouver, Coquitlam) and over Skype. If I were to list the top 5 people in my life who have had the greatest influence on me, Simon would be included in that list. When I encounter challenges, even my family will say "Why don't you consult Simon?" as they see the practical benefits his counselling has had on me. I have no reservations about recommending him and in fact, encourage anyone wishing for good mental health, to seek him out.

A few sessions in, my life took a turn and I was suddenly facing the most emotionally challenging year of my life. I've seen countless practitioners of all kinds over the years (spiritual guidance, counselors, psychologists, psychiatrists - obviously I take my mental health and development very seriously). I have never connected with someone the way Dr. Hearn just understands the very fiber of a struggle or a problem. He always said the right thing. Not always the easy thing to hear. He is incredibly proficient and well-educated and I trust him completely. I see him once in a while now as problems arise and he has always lent a listening ear and insight that pushes the boundaries of my growth as a person. You'll still have to do the work, but he will give you all of the tools. The only psychologist that has made a lasting impact in my life.

He has created an environment based on trust, and I feel comfortable sharing my thoughts without fear of being judged. Not only is Brett a great listener, but he validates my feelings and experiences. Brett has helped me to reframe my thinking and evaluate situations in a healthier way. An added bonus: Brett has a great sense of humor. Sometimes when you see a therapist, they can come across cold and clinical, but Brett is genuinely just a great person to talk to. Appreciate all that you do!

She listened, she understood and she really cared. I was able to have those hard conversations in complete privacy and confidence. She helped don't only manage my grief but overcome many childhood wounds. I felt stronger, gained more clarity and a fresh perspective. I became grateful rather than sad. Couldn't have wished for a better experience or a better outcome out of a very dark place. Their whole staff and offices were very conducive to a healing experience.

I was first referred to Micheal Gordon from a dear friend who spoke highly of him. I was at a point…read morein my life where I felt I had reached rock bottom after dealing with narcissistic male partners, abusive relationships, childhood sexual abuse and then finally being t-boned in a motor vehicle accident (none of which were my fault). I was left feeling anxiety, having panic attacks and with depression. I was at a point where I was unable to get out of bed or leave my bedroom because of the depth of emotional and psychological pain I felt within myself. I felt broken and run down and without any hope. During the 90 minute sessions, Micheal helped treat me using the EMDR technique to overcome many self limiting beliefs. He made me feel safe. He was the first person (and male) I could really talk to about everything and anything, knowing that opening up to him would lead to profound insights and healing. There have been so many 'aha' moments during our therapy sessions! Micheal taught me self respect, self confidence, and an entirely new way of looking at myself and at my life. So today, after only a few sessions of EMDR, I feel like a brand new person. I feel like I was given a new life and a second chance. I have never felt more at peace within myself and I have a new found love for myself and for who I am as a person. Not only that, I gained an incredible amount of self confidence and have gained tools in my toolbox that help me navigate through life and relationships in an entirely new, healthy and whole way. Working with Micheal has been like seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and then moving towards that light. Coming to the end of the therapy sessions, I realize that that light was within me all along. I just had to learn to let it shine. Fearlessly and unapologetically. I am incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to work on being the best and healthiest version of myself through Mindful You Therapy. I feel like the Universe answered my deepest wish--to be happy, healthy and whole. YS

I first visited Michael to determine my source of trust issues. Working through the full process of…read moreEMDR, from identifying defining moments in my life from 0 to 41, he was able to focus on 'the' traumatic event causing trust issues in my life today. After four visits, I broke through. I was shocked and amazed at how effective and quick the process is, and how the process continued to work for several months following that breakthrough. Trusting myself allowed me to remove negative influences in my life, and allow myself to trust others...something I never did easily before visiting Michael. I returned to Michael eight months later to work through the source of my smoking and weight issues. Three visits later, he guided me through another breakthrough. The form of therapy, Michael's knowledge of the process, his kindness, and probing questions make what can be a traumatic experience equate to freeing your demons and allowing you to live the life you want to live. It's been one week since my last therapy session - I've lost 8 lbs, smoke less, and feel truly happy, from the inside out. I thank Michael for working so effectively with me and guiding me in releasing the past and living the life I want today. - KM (Vancouver, BC)

I cannot praise this councillor enough. After many years of enduring a variety treatments and…read moremedications with trauma professionals I could not halt my downward slide. By the time I saw David Ravvin I was so far down the rabbit's hole I could barely see the light. He was my final attempt to overcome the debilitating effects of severe trauma and its "partner" - addiction. David is extremely knowledgeable in these areas and the most effective means of treating them, EMDR being one. He keeps himself informed of current developments and procedures and is not hesitant to suggest a change if one form of treatment does not seem to be effective. Most importantly I believe David has the ability to connect with those of us who suffer. He sees each person as an individual with unique needs and as such adjusts treatment and style of therapy accordingly. I have found him to be extremely supportive, compassionate, encouraging, non-judgemental and completely committed to your healing and wellbeing. I am indebted to him for all he has done for me. How unexpectedly wonderful it is to be able to look to the future with excitement and anticipation instead of sadness and fear. This he has given me. A. E. W. August 17, 2017
