Counsellor

The Healing Institute

The Healing Institute is a premier addiction and mental health treatment center located on the beautiful Gabriola Island, British Columbia, situated on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Snuneymuxw First Nation. Set on 7 acres of oceanfront and forested land overlooking the Pacific Ocean, our lodge-style retreat offers a peaceful and intimate environment for our residents. Private rooms with ensuite bathrooms, many featuring ocean and forest views, allow participants to begin each day immersed in the natural beauty of coastal British Columbia. At our center, we believe that personal growth and healing flourish in connection with others and with nature.

Our mission is to help individuals struggling with addiction and mental health challenges find their path to lasting recovery and a renewed sense of purpose. We specialize in individualized treatment programs addressing addiction, anxiety, depression and trauma using the most up-to-date evidence-based practices. Our multidisciplinary team maintains a high staff-to-participant ratio and creates personalized treatment plans to ensure that every participant receives focused interventions designed to support sustainable recovery.

Reporting to the Clinical Director, the Counsellor provides primary clinical services to clients, including individual therapy, group facilitation, assessment, treatment planning, and continuing care coordination. This role requires strong clinical presence, emotional attunement, and the ability to work within a highly collaborative, recovery-oriented environment. The Counsellor plays a central role in supporting psychological stabilization, trauma processing, emotional regulation, and relapse prevention while contributing to the overall integrity of the Therapeutic Community.
