Farrokh Golpour, counselling with a skilled therapist in training, serving Downtown Vancouver BC. Available for online sessions | Expressions Counselling

He believes that meaningful change begins when people feel safe enough to explore their experiences openly and at their own pace. Whether clients are navigating emotional distress, uncertainty, or personal growth, he considers it a privilege to walk alongside them through some of life’s most challenging and transformative moments.

He supports clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, self-esteem concerns, men’s issues, identity exploration, and difficulties with belonging and meaning. 

He has a particular interest in working with individuals affected by adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), attachment wounds, and unresolved trauma. He believes that while painful experiences may shape how we see ourselves and the world, they need not determine our future. His therapeutic approach is integrative, trauma-informed, and person-centred, drawing on Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Gestalt Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). He works collaboratively with clients to understand recurring patterns, process difficult experiences, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Drawing from his own life experiences, Farrokh has developed a deep appreciation for the challenges of identity, belonging, and adapting to change. Through his work supporting refugees and communities navigating crisis, displacement, and recovery, he has witnessed remarkable resilience, courage, and the human capacity for healing. These experiences have reinforced his belief that people can grow, find meaning, and move forward even after significant hardship. Outside of counselling, music remains an important source of connection and self-expression in his life and continues to shape how he connects with others.
