More Than Just My Work
I was born and raised in Mexico and immigrated to Vancouver almost 10 years ago. The journey hasn’t always been easy, I’ve experienced the challenges and grief that come with immigration, but I have also embraced the joy of discovering a new culture and building a strong community. I’m a foodie and beach enthusiast who feels deeply connected to my Latin roots, which is why you’ll often find me dancing, laughing, and cherishing time with friends and family. When I’m not working, you’ll find me cooking, relaxing, listening to a good podcast, and spending time with my loved ones.
Josy Silva
Registered Clinical Counsellor
Feeling seen, heard, and understood is a gift in itself. I see each client as unique, with their own unique set of needs and a desire to have those needs understood. You want to be in a caring, empathetic, and collaborative space where you feel supported to explore, heal, and uncover your strengths and inner wisdom at your own pace. My approach to counselling includes providing a space where you can be yourself and share in a relationship centred on guiding you with strength, experience, and knowledge.
When working with me, I help you develop a kinder and more understanding relationship with yourself, while supporting you to develop the tools to navigate your challenges with gentleness, resilience, and understanding.
My work is rooted in an anti-oppressive lens. I am deeply committed to creating an inclusive and equitable space where clients feel respected, valued, and empowered—no matter their background, identity, or experiences. I aim to provide a therapeutic space that honours your unique story, fosters healing, and supports you in building a life aligned with your values and goals.
