Support for the Moments That Feel Too Big to Carry Alone
Mental health challenges, relationships, and family dynamics can be difficult to navigate on your own. We help you make steady, realistic changes you can actually feel at home and in your closest relationships.
Who We Help
We understand! All of our clinicians have faced their own challenges with mental health concerns, complex relationships and family dynamics, or addiction. We can help you make realistic changes in your life that you can measure in a variety ways.
Healthy Hearts & Minds Counselling is a good fit for:
- Couples who care about each other but feel stuck in the same arguments, emotional distance, or silence.
- Partners rebuilding trust after a breach or big rupture in the relationship.
- Stressed, high‑responsibility adults who feel anxious, overwhelmed, or burned out.
- Parents navigating conflict at home, blended families, or kids and teens who seem shut down or on edge.
- People going through big life changes—moves, career shifts, losses, or new stages of family life—and not feeling like themselves.
If you feel like you are struggling, you don’t have to figure this out by yourself. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface, and take manageable steps forward.
Meet Your Counsellors
Healthy Hearts & Minds Counselling is led by partners in life and in practice, Rebecca Barker and Vince Rocchetti. Together, they bring complementary training, lived experience, and a shared commitment to calm, practical, down‑to‑earth care for individuals, couples, youth, and families.
Clients feel heard, understood, and challenged to grow—not pushed, judged, or rushed. Sessions move at a pace that feels manageable, with clear next steps so therapy fits into real life, including virtual appointments, evening and weekend hours, and flexible scheduling that works around busy work and family commitments.

She works online for convenience and blends person‑centred, solution‑focused, and mindfulness‑based approaches to tailor treatment to each person, couple, or family. Grounded in a trauma‑informed lens, Rebecca focuses on how your life story and stages of development shape current challenges, and walks with you toward steady, lasting change.
Vince Rocchetti- Clinical Counsellor, Addictions and Recovery Specialist
Vince combines lived experience—a 10‑year battle with addiction and nearly a decade of sobriety—with professional training from Vancouver College of Counsellor Training and work in BC settings like Into Action, Pacifica, and Covenant House. He uses person‑centred therapy, narrative therapy, talk therapy, and CBT to build strong, trusting relationships and help clients examine their thoughts, traumas, and lifestyle. Vince also supports couples and families affected by addiction and mental health concerns, helping them understand patterns, repair trust, and move toward healthier, more connected relationships.
