Couples & individual therapy · Coquitlam, BC & online
Relationships take work. Do you know what that work is?
No? That’s where I come in.
I’m Andra Dediu, a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC #3298). I offer couples therapy, marriage counselling and individual therapy in Coquitlam, British Columbia and online. I help through therapy that integrates mind, body, and soul.
Experiential processes rooted in transpersonal, attachment, and somatic therapy.
I offer a space that’s warm, grounded, and spiritually attuned.
How I work
Therapy that honours your whole self
I don’t separate the psychological from the relational, the emotional from the body, or meaning from healing. We are whole, interconnected, complex people.
Somatic: the body’s experience
Sensations, emotions, nervous-system-led states, co-regulation and self-regulation, movement impulses. Insight alone rarely changes a reflex; the body has to experience something different.
Transpersonal: meaning and depth
Parts work, inner child work, shadow work, dreamwork, archetypes and myth. For many clients healing isn’t only about reducing symptoms. It’s about individuating and differentiating.
Attachment: how you learned to connect
The four attachment strategies – secure, anxious, avoidant, disorganized – and how they shape both your behaviour and your reading of your partner’s behaviour. Most of what looks like a communication problem, is an attachment strategy doing exactly what it learned to do.
Who I support
Three ways we can work together
Couples Therapy
50 minutes · weekly, then fortnightly
I get really excited about working with couples. Whether you’re navigating communication, conflict, repeating fights, betrayal, or intimacy, our work honours your whole self so you can both find your way back to each other.
Individual Therapy
50 minutes · weekly, to begin
For the spiritually-oriented woman who has done the work and senses there’s something deeper asking to be seen… identity, growth, and spiritual emergence.
Polyamory & Non-Monogamy
Individuals, couples and constellations
Poly-affirming relationship therapy where you won’t spend your sessions explaining or defending your life’s structure. Ethical non-monogamy is a normal part of my practice.
Also running: Women’s Group Work — a small, closed group for women doing this work alongside each other.

Master’s degree plus many specialized advanced certifications - 14+ years of embodied growth
I walk my own healing path & hold yours with insight and compassion - Holistic, creative, grounded
Practical tools & soulful insight
I’m a process-oriented experiential therapist. I believe change happens when we experience something different, instead of only talking about it, so we’ll co-create plenty of experiments together.
Change happens when we experience something different, not only when we understand it.
What to expect
Our work is collaborative
Sometimes we’ll explore patterns that have followed you for years. Sometimes we’ll work directly with your nervous system. Sometimes we’ll create an embodiment experiment to explore. Sometimes we’ll simply make space for emotions that have never had room before.
Healing isn’t linear, and it’s best not to do it alone.
A safe, non-judgmental space
Feel fully seen, heard and accepted.
Mind-body tools
Practical techniques for regulating your nervous system.
Personalised care
Therapy that is intuitive, creative and tailored to you.
