Josh Nygren

Hello! I’m Josh Nygren, MPCC, a clinical counsellor and registered member of the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association (CPCA #4376). I’m also the founder of Still Waters Counselling. I support adults, teens, and children ages 8 and up across British Columbia through online counselling. I’m passionate about helping people understand themselves more clearly and feel more grounded, capable, and supported in their lives. I work from a calm, person-centred and integrative approach that focuses on meeting you where you’re at and tailoring counselling to your individual needs, strengths, and goals. My work draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. In counselling, we may explore thoughts, emotions, behaviours, relationships, values, and patterns that are affecting your life, while also developing skills and strategies you can use day to day. I believe greater awareness and self-understanding can help people make more intentional choices, respond differently to difficult situations, and better support themselves in ways that fit who they are. Most importantly, I offer a space where you can talk openly, feel heard, and feel supported as you move toward greater clarity and personal growth. Whether you're facing life's challenges, seeking personal growth, navigating difficult emotions, or simply needing someone to talk to, I’m here to support you on your journey toward a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.
