Where to Find a Native Thai Therapist in Vancouver

We aim to provide bilingual counselling and therapy services with our experienced Thai therapists at affordable prices and with increased accessibility to those who require it the most, despite their geographical location. Websites indicate there are around 200,000 South Asians residing in Vancouver, and the number of therapy providers offering services in Thai language is extremely low.

Why Choose a Thai Therapist in Vancouver?

We understand the importance of being able to talk with someone you can feel 100% comfortable and open with. Let us take a look at some other reasons why clients may seek a native Thai therapist in Vancouver.

• Lack of social connections and friends.
• Cultural barriers.
• Language differences.
• Lack of sense of community.
• They may be homesick
• Easier to relate to individuals who come from the same place as you.
• Loneliness
• Thai-Western couples therapy

Some benefits of working with a Thai therapist in Vancouver include:

Speaking your mother tongue: Speaking in your mother tongue has been said to have a unique ability and power to access your early years and childhood.

Learning to access different parts of yourself: When speaking in one’s mother tongue, you are better able to connect with someone entirely, which allows for a more transparent and authentic experience.

Feeling more understood: Clients have previously reported feeling deeply understood when given the opportunity to speak to a therapist in their own mother tongue. Not having to worry about mistranslating or which word fits where helps to focus on what’s important.

Feeling empowered: Having to speak a language that isn’t your first language can be daunting and you can often feel at a huge disadvantage from native speakers around you, constantly making you doubt yourself. Being able to speak in your mother tongue may allow you to feel more empowered in your language and culture.

Benefits of Online Therapy for Thai Speaking Clients

Historically, in order to attend counselling and therapy sessions, it was necessary for clients and therapists to be present together in a physical setting. While traditional therapy is still prevalent in Vancouver, online therapy is dominating the industry now and slowly becoming a modern alternative to traditional therapy.

In this digital era and with the help of online therapy, clients are now able to carry out their therapy sessions without leaving their own homes and just with access to the internet.

Let’s take a look at some advantages for online therapy in Vancouver:

• More consistent therapy
• Convenience and affordability – 90 minute sessions only 140 CAD
• Increased access to suitable therapists globally
• Confidentiality
• Clients feel more autonomous

How To Access Native Thai Therapists In Vancouver 

With most individuals who may be struggling with issues in their lives, having someone besides family members with whom you can communicate transparently in your native language without judgement can be extremely helpful. Simply knowing there is someone there to listen and understand you can help clients take a step in the right direction.

It is extremely important never to look over any signs and symptoms or think perhaps they may subside on their own. If you feel you or anyone around you could benefit from reaching out for help, do not hesitate to reach out. By not seeking help at the right time, individuals may open themselves to the possibility of letting a serious condition become even worse.

Start the Process & Take the First Step and Schedule Your Free Initial Consultation.

At Counselling Thailand, we understand the importance of finding the right counsellor for addressing your concerns and needs. That’s why we offer a free initial 15 minute consultation for individuals and 30 minutes for couples and families.

The next step for seeking help is to complete our online client enquiry form. This will give a little extra information to help us select whom we believe the most suitable therapist would be and then we can email you a list of available appointment times for the free initial call.

During this consultation, we will discuss your specific situation and determine whether our approach aligns with your needs. We will also answer any questions you may have. If you decide to proceed with counselling, we can then schedule the first full session(s) at a mutually convenient time.

If you are contacting us from outside Thailand, please include both your city location as well as country so we can suggest suitable times convenient for your time zone.
