Heal your relationship
with yourself

Carson and Matthew are great counsellors and they both demonstrate genuine care for clients. Men looking for the conventional individual counselling they offer would do well to seek their help, and they would be in good hands.

I have had 3 sessions with Colter regarding my future plan after my graduation as an international student. I was in panic after my military service as I knew nothing about what's coming. Colter not only encouraged me but also taught me incredible tools that I could use to gain control over my situation. Colter understood my problems, despite difference in culture, race and background. I was fortunate to talk to him and made huge impact in my perspective.

I have been with Thrive Downtown Counselling going on 5 years now. I was new to Vancouver and was recommended to Thrive by my MD. Since then I have grown in so many ways and am still on that trajectory as we are never fully healed and are always in the action of healing. What I can say, is this clinic embodies safety and trust for your growth at your pace. I am who I am today for the hard work I’ve put in but by the guidance of the counselling at Thrive.

The counsellors at Thrive Downtown Counselling are professional, dependable and empathetic with an exceptional skill set to help you feel empowered to work through the situations you’ve been struggling with. If you’ve been struggling with anxiety, transitions, stress, relational issues, or trauma, I highly recommend booking an appointment with one of the counsellors at Thrive. The online booking system is so easy to use and you can book an appointment within seconds!

Thank you Carson and the Thrive team. I am leaving a review based on my experience working with Thrive for over 5 years. The team at Thrive is well equipped, compassionate, respectfully sensitive, patient, and extremely skilled at unravelling my "big ball of yarn" chaos so that each thread could be treated finding valued-added experiences of my past for me to rebuild my new life. I only have positive regards and hold Carson and his team in the highest esteem. I am able to live an improved life and managing my wellness through the tools given to me from Thrive. Carson has been, and is, an anchor for me when storms rage and $h!+ hits the fan. I am forever grateful.

Fantastic group of counsellors. Extremely warm feeling walking in the doors. So glad I reached out!

The amount of care and dedication Thrive gave me was excellent - along with follow up along the way. I honestly believe Thrive along with Dr. Kivari helped me turn a corner in my life.

As a fellow clinician, I hold a deep reverence for the team of counsellors at Thrive. Each of Thrive's counsellors bring their own unique skillset, personality and background to their work, yet are united in the level of dedication and care they bring forward in supporting their clients. I trust fully that anyone who seeks counselling here will be met with compassion and steadfast guidance in their journey towards understanding and healing their internal world.
