I’m grateful to be a Registered Clinical Counsellor practicing on the traditional, unceded territories of the Lil’wat Peoples. I’m excited to join the Leaning Cedar Therapy team, where I offer counselling appointments on Fridays.
Since 2017, I have been part of the interdisciplinary Mental Health and Substance Use team serving the Pemberton and Whistler communities with Vancouver Coastal Health. In my role as a clinician, I work primarily with youth and young adults, and have previous experience supporting adults as well. I have also held a small private practice since that time.
As a parent of two young children and a therapist with over 10 years of experience working with people of all ages, I understand firsthand how challenging life transitions can be. I also know they can be deeply meaningful and rewarding. Having support during difficult times can make the journey feel lighter.
Spending time outdoors and moving my body in the mountains is an important part of my own self-care. You’ll often find me skiing, biking, walking our dog (often listening to an audiobook), canoeing/stand-up paddling, and enjoying the library, parks, trails, lakes, and other local spots with my family.
I offer counselling for individuals, couples, and families navigating mental health challenges, substance use, and life transitions—including adolescence, perinatal, and postpartum experiences. My work is grounded in a person-centred and trauma-informed approach, with a focus on building strong therapeutic relationships. I draw on tools and interventions from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), Gottman Method, Narrative Therapy, nature-based therapy, and mindfulness.
Many extended benefits plans cover Registered Clinical Counsellors. I also partner with the Whistler Community Services Counselling Assistance Program to offer sliding-scale services and am an approved provider for the VAIL (Whistler Blackcomb) Employee Assistance Program through MINES. I believe everyone deserves access to mental health support.
Please feel free to email me at alannaraycounselling@gmail.com to schedule a free 10-minute phone consultation and see if we might be a good fit.
I look forward to connecting!
