About Kenya

Hi, I'm Kenya Gader, a Registered Social Worker offering virtual counselling across British Columbia.

For over a decade, I have supported individuals navigating mental health challenges, intimate partner violence, addictions, trauma, homelessness, and involvement with child protection services. These experiences have shaped my understanding of the resilience people hold, even in the midst of difficult circumstances.

I work from a strengths-based and trauma-informed perspective, believing that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. I strive to meet you where you are and tailor our work together to your unique needs and goals.

My approach is eclectic and integrates Attachment-Based therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Narrative therapy, and relational approaches.

My hope is that through our work together, you feel safe, supported, and empowered to explore the parts of yourself and your experiences that may feel difficult to hold alone. Together, we can create space for healing, build upon your strengths, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and meaningful to you.

What I Do in My Free Time

In my free time I enjoy being outdoors. Hanging by the ocean or hiking. I love yoga, surfing and being creative in any way I can!
