Registered Clinical Counsellor · North Shore, BC
Counselling in North & West Vancouver
Finding the right support starts with feeling understood.
I’m Leanne Warner, a Registered Clinical Counsellor here on the North Shore working with adults, youth, couples and families, creating a warm and supportive space to make sense of what’s difficult and move toward lasting, meaningful change.
I offer in-person counselling at my North Vancouver office and online sessions throughout British Columbia.
Why work with Leanne?
Experience matters. So does connection.
Finding the right counsellor means feeling understood. With over 15 years of experience, I bring insight and care to our work together, taking the time to understand what’s happening for you and building a path forward that fits your life.
Registered & accountable

Questions
A few things you may want to know
Do you offer a free consultation?
Yes. Every new client starts with a free 15-minute conversation, by phone or video. Tell me what’s going on, ask whatever you’d like about how I work, and see whether I feel like the right fit. Nothing is booked at the end of it unless you want it to be.
Do you offer online counselling across British Columbia?
Yes. Secure video sessions are available to anyone in BC and work just as well as meeting in person for most concerns. It suits North Shore clients with tight schedules, families spread across the province, and people who simply feel more at ease at home.
Do you work with young people?
Yes. I see teens and youth aged 15 and up for anxiety, low mood, school stress, identity questions and conflict at home, with parents supported alongside. Years of work in schools and community settings sit behind that, so young people tend to settle in quickly.
Take the first step, at your pace
A free 15-minute consultation is the easiest place to start. No pressure, no commitment — just a conversation about what you need and whether we’re the right fit.
