Mark Sheehan

MACP, CCC

I am a Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC) with a Master’s in Counselling Psychology. Before becoming a counsellor, I spent nearly a decade working in various management and marketing roles within the tech industry. While successful professionally, I found myself increasingly disconnected from meaning and drawn more toward people, relationships, and understanding what helps people live with greater meaning and authenticity.

That experience of career change and reevaluating what mattered most continues to shape how I work with clients today. I understand what it can feel like to appear “fine” externally while internally feeling disconnected, stuck, burned out, or uncertain about your direction and purpose. Many of the clients I work with are navigating questions around identity, meaning, relationships, work, and how to build a life that feels more aligned with who they are.

My path into counselling began through volunteering with the Crisis Centre of BC, where I spent four years supporting callers on suicide crisis lines. I later joined the organization, where I currently facilitate suicide grief support groups and suicide prevention workshops.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I work from a variety of clinical orientations and tailor my approach to meet your needs. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I see therapy as something we shape together, grounded in your experiences, values, and goals.

If you’re considering counselling, you can book a free 30-minute phone or video consultation with me to see whether we’re a good fit.
